Slacker Radio not working after this morning's new firmware

[thimel]

THanks for that information!
If I upgraded to the fully premium package, can I rewind, store songs in play lists etc?
As it stands right now, it's pretty limited

I don't know for sure. Someone with a premium account will have to answer.

YES you can. We have made many playlists as well as a folder just called "by request" where we store a bunch of favorites that can be selected at random and played at random. You can not rewind within a song to a particular part but you can use the rewind forward buttons to jump to the beginning of that song or a previous song in the set or skip to the next song. We have several playlists of concerts we have gone to and those we are planning on going to and love to listen to them as well. You can even save an album to be played back at will.

The only little trick you'll have to remember is that the lists and saves must be done on your phone or iPad or a desktop / notebook and then once your finished just go to the apps section in your car and log out and login to slacker and they'll be in your car. Works great and worth the premium slacker fee

Slacker busted.

Slacker is back. I did nothing but give the car 24 hours of sunshine treatment. And now slacker plays.

I am guessing this was a fault at Slacker central, not Tesla.

It is so easy to assume Tesla software is at fault, being so coincidental following a firmware update...

Who will ever know?

Exactly. Heck would we ever know if they just push software to our cars without notifying us?

When this was resolved, I got the following reply to my email. This was NOT related to a Tesla software upgrade (as I never did one)
