I think the firmware build number must be available in the Tesla API because Visible Tesla displays it.

and Allen's upstream data has been sniffed, though it's been a while ;-)
it appears connects to Tesla's servers, pass encypted uname/pw with secret key and stores returned oauth info. There has been times where that becomes stale and you'll see emails where a simple logout/login recreates a new token.
i don't believe in any remote, non-trusted, site consuming my password and doing the authentication with TM on my behalf as I can't sniff its data. As much as I love and trust you all nfw ;-)

another data point on .77 being SC only. My car is at SC and was updated. FW update time ~2 hours (supposedly AP updates are 2 hours at SC, whereas non-AP are < 10 mins). fixes on .77 include internal temp algorithm update, for better heating, and LTE FW upgrade for better stability of radio stack.
Nice. Two questions:
1) Do you now have the temperature and time permanently in the instrument cluster (NOT in the clock app)?
2) Does a lane change initiated during Autosteer require you to hold the steering wheel or can it still be done without touching the wheel at all (before/during/after the lane change)?

2.8.188 Puts the clock and temp display back on the dash display.
Anyone notice anything else?

Agreed.
Some of these crazy people ruin it for all of us that at least try to be sensible most of the time. They are the ones that help cause the press to take on a life of its own sometimes when it may not really be that justified. Personally, I try not to watch videos and read articles that I suspect may be of the sensational crazy type, especially related to subjects I care most about, like my MS... I probably miss out on some laughs and grimaces, and I'm just one person, but it's one less count they receive that incent them or others to do something similar -- and perhaps harm themselves or others along the way.

Hopefully it's just a weight sensor, to prevent autopilot driving with no one in the driver's seat. He was almost certainly referring to wk057's video (which was made safely.)
I made the post below, in that thread, just after Musk made his comments. The video is at the beginning of that thread, of course.
Pretty sure Musk just referred to this video in the earnings call, both in his comment about "crazy things people are doing" and with respect to the restrictions they'd be adding! You're famous! (Or infamous!)

Yes on temp, pic below. No on Time, still on 17"
autosteer works as before, no hands required
Heating is MUCH better on .77 and now passes WAF (Wife Acceptance Factor) ;-)
only other her thing ice noticed, though honestly can't remember if it was there <.77 is side avoidance collision setting, pics below
Even when driving? Your photo shows it plugged in with "Charge Scheduled". IIRC, the other photos I saw with the clock on the IC were with the car "on".
1) Yes. Temp over on the lower left side of center and time on the lower right side of center. Temp is no longer along the top of the 17" display. Time is still in the upper right of the 17" display
2) Did a couple of lane changes this evening during AP usage, no touching of the steering wheel required either time at any time before, during, and after.

Forgive me, but one would think that when the car is off and saying it will charge at a specific time, that it would be good to display the current time on the same screen?!? I know I could easily see the time elsewhere and why do I need to know it when I'm not driving, but why do I effectively need to be told charging is scheduled when I was also told what time charging will begin?!?
I'm glad Tesla is tweaking things for our desires, but I still cannot understand the mindset around some of these decisions.

I'll check tomorrow, though my memory says not. Would align with why have time on both displays?

The matter of a side collision system has been raised in this thread.
The other day I was driving in very heavy rain on the interstate. At one point, when I was being passed by a faster car in the lane left of mine, there was a buzz or warning tone and the steering wheel tried to jerk right in my hands, which was not too hard to resist. I assumed the car passing me raised a rooster tail of water that must have gotten pretty close to mine, triggering some kind of side collision prevention system. If so, it was a misfire that they should try to program not to happen.
I think it happened when I had AP off. I did try AP on that drive because the display showed it was reading the lane lines despite the heavy rain and bad conditions; however I kept my hands full on the wheel because of those conditions. Although I think the misfire occurred during the time I had AP off, I am embarrassed to say I can't be 100% sure thinking back on it now: there's a small chance happened was while it was on.

Will be very interesting to read the responses to this post. As I read pages 77-78 of the new 7.0 Owners Manual a) it's not on if Autosteer is engaged b) should not be used in certain conditions such as rain. What I didn't find is if there's another way to turn it off easily other than in the Driver Assistance settings on the 17" screen.
