I've had a S3XY Dash since the initial launch in late February in my Austin built May 2025 Juniper.

The app cannot recognize that the S3XY Dash is on the most up-to-date firmware 6.8.2, and still shows my Dash firmware as 6.3.3. It continues to show the blue dot next to Software Update that an update is available for the Dash.

When I go into that Updates menu it says my current firmware is 6.3.3, and just underneath the words "Firmware Update" at the top is the word searching... that never finishes. Additionally, the UPDATE button at the bottom of that page is greyed out and the only button that works is GO BACK. it has been that way for the last several updates. I seem to only be able to update the Dash by direct interface with the Dash Settings on the touchscreen, but the app cannot recognize the Dash has been updated, so it would seem the app is not communicating with the Dash.

Troubleshooting attempts:

1. Reboot Dash - no luck.

2. Reboot Commander - no luck.

3. Reboot Tesla w/double scroll wheel reset - no luck.

4. Uninstall and reinstall S3XY App - no luck.

5. Forget Bluetooth pairings for both Dash and Commander and re-pair - no luck.

Kind of at a loss on what to try next, but I thought communication between the App and Dash was fixed a couple of updates ago.

Any suggestions?

So I've used 2 streaming services (Tidal and Amazon music) with my Tesla and both seem to have this same issue where the service cannot resume a track once I've left the vehicle and returned.

I notice the only time it seems to be capable of possibly resuming is when I'm on my home Wi-Fi connection.

For reference I don't sub to premium connectivity, I just hotspot from my unlimited phone plan.

Has anyone found a solution to this? I'm wondering if it has to do with some type of dynamic IP address issues when the vehicle reacquires the hotspot after losing connection like when you really into a store or work and the connection breaks due to range.

Tint that windshield if you live in a hot climate, folks.

I've owned this car thru 2 Texas summers, and had every window, (including the roof glass which has that silver coating) tinted with expel ceramic except the windshield.

Car would regularly top out at 131° with the cabin overheat protection set at no A/C in even moderate spring time sun with a Vion sunshade deployed in the windshield. With no cabin overheat protection, I'd see +170° on the regular.

Had the windshield tinted with expel 70% yesterday afternoon and parked it in the sun today to dry out the water bubbles and help cure the glue. The picture tells the tale: 97° outside and we're holding steady at 109°. Fan only is more than capable of controlling that internal temp. Only lost 2% charge since 9am when I rolled it out of the garage to the sun. It's 4:12pm here in Texas at the time of this writing.

I should have done this a year ago.
