If you don't know why it was stopped, it probably isn't an issue that affects you...so no need to push a newer version or update to you. Many issues seem to be very hardware-specific, ie only applicable to some VIN numbers.
I'm in the same boat as napabill having gotten stuck at .44 and I continue to have the noisy fan issue. So in this case, TM should push out incremental updates to address known issues.

Well, after a couple of days, my car is back to extending its handles in Park again. Not sure why. I didn't do a re-boot or anything, but they just started working again...

remove a charge place from the map & not allow it to repopulate
On 4.5 it has a tab for past charging places you've used. One of them is my home (duh).
One of the security measures I've learned from law enforcement (a topic of debate for another time) is NOT to put your home address into the Nav systems of cars because thieves/valets instantly know where you live.
Is there a way to remove a charge place from the map & not allow it to repopulate the next time you charge there again?

I had wondered about this in another thread myself. I have ended up with several charge locations saved at the same spot (due to slight GPS inaccuracies, I assume) and would like to delete the duplicates. While it does show my home location, it is not identified as such, so a thief wouldn't necessarily know which charge spot is my home. I suppose if it was the only residential location, that might be a clue.

They do not seem to have a way to delete any previous charge locations. Mine even has the Fremont factory address listed, when the car was first charged. They probably need a way to allow the end user to edit/delete these, and also mark the address as "do not store in the future". Also, my home address is in multiple times because of GPS inaccuracies, if everyone's I like that, it would be easy to figure out which address is your home address.
seems like a few things on the car behave this way, don't work for a while then eventually sort it out. my guess is that this is a component authentication issue. i'm guessing that for safety and security they have a handshake system between components of the security sub-system, i.e. the doors, trunks, ignition (or our equiv.).. maybe some components take a little longer, or need the software in a certain subroutine, to acknowledge a new hardware or firmware install and it takes a day or two to cycle through... once all components have shaken hands and the hardware registry is updated accordingly, then everybody starts playing nice... just a theory.
Well I suppose on other cars the glovebox is lockable, so that could cover it. But then I agree it is a bit paranoid. In today's world, I think if anyone wanted to find out where anyone lived, it's possible. You'd have to try very hard to make it not possible.

So, is the current official status of 4.5 "on hold" again? I'm still amazed that I haven't even been prompted to install any flavor of 4.5.

Can't speak for DrTaras, but I keep mine in my wallet. No reason those things need to be in the car when I am not.
We should start a poll.
I bet the majority has insurance and registration in the glove compartment.
If you have more than one driver of the vehicle this is a problem. What is my wife supposed to do if she gets pulled over and the registration is in my wallet?
Make a copy for her. At least here in California, you don't need to have the originals with you.
haha, this is always what I think when folks are worried about having "Home" saved in their GPS.

I keep copies of the insurance and registration in the kangaroo pouch on the driver's seat. Don't tell anyone :wink:

I do but it has my mailing address on it, not the address where my house is. The charging location list is the only thing in the car showing or listing where my house is, and I would also like to be able to delete it.

I doubt this because at the end of an update everything is shut down and restarts, presumably so that everything can do whatever discovery and handshaking may be necessary after the changes. It wouldn't make sense for things to slowly propagate their updated status over several days.

I just got version .59 I was .44 before with no issues.
Nothing different in the release notes.
if I notice any different behavior next time I'm out in the car I'll report in.
