Firmware 7.0 Beta Discussion

[ken830]

Trip display on the dash looks like a better mix of information. And overall, a much more modern look. I really hope we get some huge improvements on the media player app. TuneIn is really broken. Favorites/playlist functionality is lacking.

I think it looks worse. I hope this is faked and not real.

I'm guessing it has to be fake. If they were doing a v7.0 rollout, we should've seen more people posting about it.

This is very unTesla like. No big hoopla?

Someone has to be first??

Firmware 7.0

Alright, given that we've seen unconfirmed reports of Firmware 7.0 in the wild from a supposed NON early-access (Tesla's Beta testers program) customer in Norway, I figured it was time to start a 7.0 sticky. Here's the link to his (or her) FaceBook post:

Here are the photos we have so far from 7.0:

Please feel free to add other photos of 7.0 from other sources, and of course, post if you get 7.0 over the air!!

Looking forward to it! I guess this means that v7.0 comes out w/o AutoPilot and a subsequent update will enable AP?

I'm with you on that. I don't care for that look at all.

 

[ken830]

Just for the record, he indicated this version number: v7.0 (2.6.182)

 

[spentan]

I think it looks great.

Looking forward to it on my P85D and 2 P85s.

A fake analog clock, seriously?!

So the power indicator is now optional and takes up one of the side panels? It looks like in general the instrument cluster is a lot skimpier on information than currently. Not sure I like that.

I'm trying very hard to suspend judgement until I can see the whole thing myself.

But if you have to have the energy graph wasting half of the display just to see the power meter I will be deeply unimpressed.

Exactly the same thing happened with 6.1 - it just quietly arrived one day, despite arguably being the most feature packed release ever (reversing lines, trip energy predictor, shuffle and repeat, gps aware suspension, etc etc). Someone has to get it first!

It might be a glitch, maybe someone mistyped the VIN of an EA beta tester's car and he got it accidentally. Sure looks real to me!

Wouldn't that be hilarious.

 

[ken830]

This might be a fluke or human-error that mistakenly pushed a pre-release version to a non-early-access car. He does say that there were no release notes. It's just blank.

 

[darthy001]

Sure looks real to me!

After checking this guys facebook-profile I am 98% certain that this is indeed real

Claims of video coming soon as well!

 

[Raffy.Roma]

So we have already autosteer?

Did you get it too?

 

[Sosius]

nice shot, Laumb. Please post more. I guess Tesla is rewarding Norway for buying so many cars by giving them 7.0 first!

An owner in Norway got his 7.0 upgrade.

Looks real, and I like a cleaner layout. Don't draw too many conclusions from those few pictures.
I wonder if that owner is in the beta program and should not be posting those photos.
