Correct.But that SMS would be sent from the Tesla servers, not the user's phone.
Exactly - the app can communicate directly with car via BT. Internet connection is not required for the Tesla API to wake the car. It achieves this using a poke sms message.
I suspect there are more than 1 way for the system to wake from sleep. SMS through Tesla servers is definitely not the only way. Last year when I went climbing, the car park under the mountain had no reception at all, so when on the mountain I could not connect to the car, however when I got to the camping are next to the car, I could access the car from app and App woke the car up without the phone or the car having any reception, so I suspect BT stack has an option for waking the car also, and it is possible that the wifi may have something as well. Though after some updates that wake system on wifi does not appear to work correctly where the BT or LTE versions still work.Correct.
You can also walk your car with summon and keys in your pocketMany ways to wake your car. You can also walk to your car with a key in your pocket. Or press the roof on the key. So many options!
I wonder if 2021.40.5 will make it to Australia or be limited to US only as it does have the sentry mode live camera access, that so far has been US only?
I know someone with an S that has received it already.I wonder if 2021.40.5 will make it to Australia or be limited to US only as it does have the sentry mode live camera access, that so far has been US only?
That's a good signI know someone with an S that has received it already.
To clarify, they have 2021.40.5 in an Australian Model S and they have remote viewing of the sentry mode cameras?I know someone with an S that has received it already.
Only TeslaFi install is shown for a 3 SR+ in the UK, so I'd say it looks like a global release.I wonder if 2021.40.5 will make it to Australia or be limited to US only as it does have the sentry mode live camera access, that so far has been US only?
They have 2021.40 in an Australian Model S. Don't know about the sentry mode cameras!To clarify, they have 2021.40.5 in an Australian Model S and they have remote viewing of the sentry mode cameras?
I have 2021.40 in two S and neither has waypoints or sentry camera’s. I read somewhere that we are getting sentry mode in 2021.46, but the source was questionable so wouldnt be relying on it.They have 2021.40 in an Australian Model S. Don't know about the sentry mode cameras!
From what I understand the sentry remote cameras were introduced in the US release of 2021.36.8, they were not included in 2021.40 international release, however the screenshot online from the release notes for 2021.40.5 appear to list that function, so I was wondering if it would roll out to us here also with that update or would it be geo-fenced ability still for US only.I have 2021.40 in two S and neither has waypoints or sentry camera’s.

I can also confirm that 2021.40 may well have british english but doesnt have ‘stralia english so no difference on voice commands. The recognition system is still rubbish.Something that is boggling my mind a little is how many firmware versions are “live” (ie actively being deployed at the same time to different parts of the fleet) as far as those cars hooked up to TeslaFi. I mean:
* 2021.36.5.5 - still going out steadily worldwide
* 2021.36.5.6 - going out about the same rate to mainly Australia/US/Canada (as a step-up bug fix of some sort from 2021.36.5.5)
* 2021.36.8.5 - FSD update (update from 2021.36.5.3) for US FSD cars
* 2021.36.8.6 - US-only, has remote sentry view, not many TeslaFi cars have it
* 2021.40 - worldwide rollout, but mainly Canada, adds Tidal streaming. I note that it has “British English” as a language, maybe I won’t have to try to sound North American for some of the voice commands to work properly with that setting?
* 2021.40.5 - worldwide, adds waypoints to 2021.40. No mention in the (unofficial) release notes of remote sentry camera access.
Seems like at least 3 active branches: FSD (US only), remote sentry (US only), and Tidal/waypoints (worldwide). Doesn’t seem like any TeslaFi cars have been updated from 2021.36.8.6 to 2021.40.x yet but that will be when we find out if the remote sentry view is included in 2021.40.x and just geoblocked.
Unusual that a tesla update has a bug
