OTA Power Up 1.7.1 preview

[Finkerton]

Not me and now I think my car is going backwards. My car went back to only being able to open the driver door by opening the back passenger door first. I fixed it once by disconnecting the 12V battery and it fixed it. As of yesterday that fix stopped working. I am hoping this new update that never seems to come will fix it so I don't have to disconnect the battery again it resets the mileage and other things.

Interesting, sometimes, but not all the time, my rear passenger door won't open unless one of the front doors are opened first, at which point both open.

I thought maybe this was some safety feature but given the inconsistency I can't figure out what the purpose might be. Or how to turn it off.

I just disconnected the 12V battery again and it fixed my issue of not being able to open the driver door without opening back passenger door first. its a weird way to fix a issue like this but it works.

This is where a "hard" reboot option on the car would be nice.

I've had my Mach-E since April, and just last week mine started doing this exact thing EVERY time. I press the back door...nothing happens, press the front door button and both pop open simultaneously . Very annoying. I can also fish out my key fob and unlock it moments before and then it seems to work right, but not if I do the way I was used to for the first 5 months (walk up and press the button).

Last 2 days my Mustang has connected to my network 12 times, but has only downloaded 1.5 MB.

This is much more than usual.

My argument is "I have really bad fomo!"

Sync is running fine here without tic tac toe but a better charging curve and no 80% cliff sounds like something I don't want to miss out on. For me the curve is jump to 47 KW on a 50 KW charger and stop at 80% as they charge by the minute and 11 KW isn't cutting it. So the mme may get better DP indicated. Tweaking modules to except and then bam! Thanks Kyle ?

The last couple updates have been in the magnitude of 100 MB,. I suppose they could be downloading in smaller chunks over time, but I have not seen this.

I actually got a nice big 100 MB download over a month ago that never showed up as an update, so who knows.

I'm guessing 1.7.1 will be over 1 GB when it comes. I doubt it will be sent compressed or the car would need to spend a lot of time decompressing before it can save the files.

"Lot of time" is relative. Algorithms like lzop are memory efficient and quite fast. In fact, if the storage is slow, it's way faster (for algorithms like lzop and lz4) to store compressed data and decompress it on the fly than to have to read more bytes off storage. This remains true when pulling files over a relatively slow connection such as a mobile network (and even with WiFi this will generally hold true, depending on the capabilities of the embedded CPU).

ctrl-alt-del didn't help?

Let's hope he wasn't just blowing smoke up your posterior regarding the timeline. ?

Anyone get this update yet? Or was it just a dream?

Decompressing 1 GiB of data even if its compressed with the slowest of popular compression - xz - is pretty fast on a hardware that can run Mach-E central screen. The bottleneck could be I/O - the SSD write speed.

Used to read Word Up! magazine.

LOL, turn it off and back on again
