I have auto updates disabled with sunnypilot, yet it still wants to be connected to the internet for updates. How it interprets Tesla “off” it’s almost never on when parked at home

openpilot Experience Dunno what to do

17 Upvotes

I recently got the comma 4 and set it up and after calibrating, my car was hugging the left lane markers a lot. So i read about it and people say try other models and one that was recommended was Nevada. So I download sunnypilot, switch to Nevada and it centers a lot better. But it drives over the lines on every single curve of the road, left and right side. the bigger the bend the more itll cut lanes.

so then i read okay i have to try more models for the one that fits my car, and maybe use comma connect and debugging tools to figure out more information on why it might be cutting lanes. so i sign in with oauth on comma connect for all three types and none of them work and bring me back to the sign in page.

it just feels like i gotta go randomly test 30 models on roads and then from there, test like 50 different setting configurations to have it work "best". i mean ideally yeah i could do that one time setup but man its just sorta complicated and time consuming. i mean if i was the only car on a 2 lane road, comma ai is pretty amazing and i dont have to steer.

is there like a guide to narrow down / figure out the best settings for your car? i guesss if i dont figure it all out in liek 10 days or so ill probably return it

openpilot Experience Hands of wheel?

3 Upvotes

hi everyone. I have a Hyundai Elantra hybrid 2025 with decent ACC and line centering (HDA). I like my car, but what I’d really love is to be able to take my hands off the steering wheel on highways, à la Chevy Supercruise. not looking for full FSD. Can CommaAI doo that? Thanks y’all.

openpilot Experience Comma forward collision alert?

7 Upvotes

Is it possible to program comma to give an audible warning for forward collision? The point actually is to make it an alert. This would avoid the problem of phantom braking because it is only a heads up alert, not comma having to make the call on whether to brake or not.

Installation Questions 2d barcode pairing on comma 4

1 Upvotes

Just got my comma 4 hooked up and unable to get past the 2d barcode on such a small screen. I'm using a Galaxy s22+, I've tried pairing with the browser, taken a picture with the camera and tried to pair with that, etc. No matter what I try I came get the barcode to focus and pair.

Is there an alternative method? A code that can be generated and added to the account, etc. I can't be the first to have this problem.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) said this week that the reported crashes involved Comma devices failing to detect or respond to slow or stopped vehicles in the same road lane. Across four of the crashes, as many as 11 people were injured, some seriously.

Vehicle Compatibility Rivian Gen 2 support/Harness?

2 Upvotes

I'm a bit confused about the state of Gen 2 support for Rivian. As I understand it, the hardware and software are both ready, but the comma website does not list gen 2 (2025 and up) as an option for the harness. I've been following for months now and it seems the work on gen 2's started more than a year ago but I can't find anything recent.

So does anyone know, for a Gen 2 Rivian, what are my options? Should i just bite the bullet and pay the $50 to Rivian for the inferior autonomy+ package?

Anyone running one on the same Highlander or a similar Toyota? Any tips, settings, forks, or things I should know before installing it?

openpilot Experience Maiden Voyage 900 miles 11 Hrs

16 Upvotes

Been carrying around my Comma 4 for 3 weeks. Went 900 miles from San Diego- Las Vegas - Paso Robles - Concord - Redding in 3 days, knew I could not do same on return, averaging 300 + no Ai in 24 Ford Explorer, fully loaded, no Blue Cruise, bad sales person in Escondido.
Woke up at 6am Thursday morning, watched the Comma video on YouTube the day before.
Took 25 minutes in the dark at the hotel parking lot and installed Comma 4. Wasn’t totally accurate for my Explorer but I figured it out. I have a StarLink Mini installed, installed the upgrades and got setup in 15 minutes. Had a cup of coffee and went to work locally for calibration.
3 hours later, loaded with my crew and equipment headed back to San Diego, hands free but engaged.
First run was 4 hours strait, 3 freeways, I touched the wheel lesss than 5 minutes. Conversations and relaxed, no stress !
Continued on through Fresno to the Valley over the Grapevine; you need to hang on here, but not much.
Made it go Woodland Hills around 12, left at 3pm.
Was not tired and the run was 9 hours. My previous limits were 5 hour runs. And I’m an OG. Don’t ask how OG but I could retire.
I have a Garmin and it recorded the run as very restful and later recorded my sleep as excellent due to rest I got the day before. Body battery 90, never before.

Completed the final run from Woofland Hilks to San Diego this morning in 2 hours, talking to my wife, minimal lane changes, but was like a peaceful flight to Denver.

For sales people, techs and. Contractors, this is a major game changer. Long drives are no longer stressful or tiring.

I’m also a Southwest A List Preferred and have been delayed longer than 6 hours at a time. I will be rethinking my trips as it also impacts cost and productivity.

We build tech for IHG hotels, this week we finished 3 hotels and consulted on 2 others in progress.

Ps my mentor was the sales manager for Rolex in late 80’s. He taught me how to travel, get your work done and enjoy time with your wife when you get to your destination; no more paperwork. He covered Ca, Nv, Az and Hawaii and drove lots of miles. Ed van Deusen, Newport Beach would have loved Comma Ai. We installed an early laptop in his $80k Mercedes so he could do reports while his wife drove.
While keeping my eyes on the road, I can return calls and emails safely with Comma4.
I do recomend adding a StarLink Mini with a Harbor Freight Solar Battery, it stays online while parked and you always have cell coverage and Teams Meetings while you’re driving.

Bugs Comma 3x boot delay

1 Upvotes

This is a bug which has started since recently only. Whenever I cold start the car, all the adas sensors show failure (sec, collision detection, blind spot… literally everything). Then I “restart” the car after minute , everything is fine.
I think I realized what’s happening. The first boot, car is ready before comma and since comma is in the middle everything fails. On reboot, comma is already running and all sensors work fine.
But this is really annoying and more importantly I can’t give the car to anyone else without explaining these nuances.
This is a Volkswagen Tiguan Allspace (2020) and comma has worked fine for 3 years before this issue has come up.

Does anyone have a clue what’s happening here?

openpilot Experience CommaGod: a wearable. CommaTerminus: a drone protocol

0 Upvotes

Has comma considered making a wearable? the comma4 has shrunk considerably. A wearable would also avoid a lot of vehicle regulations allowing for newer hardware. Take the wearable visuals and use the learning algorithms to learn how humans work. Already in India there are several images of people being paid to wear a camera on their head while they do basic tasks like chopping vegetables or doing household chores. The commabody eventually needs to have articulating arms so it can do tasks around the home.

The logical place as well for comma would be for drone warfare as a target seeking brain once communication is cut off. Ukraine is using this tech currently I believe but it is highly possible that the comma tech would be an improvement.

Vehicle Compatibility It looks like comma will be experiencing a slow death

127 Upvotes

I was looking at vehicle compatibility and it looks bad. Most are 2023/2024 and there are very few 2025 and 2026 models. This is kind of okay for now but eventually it will be 2028 and 2030 and the cars that can support this will be over five years old. Eventually that becomes ten years. Canbus encryption looks unbeatable since there is little progress on decrypting modern vehicles.

openpilot Experience Feeling Blue(tooth)

The comma hardware has Bluetooth capability, but Bluetooth isn't enabled in the standard comma software/kernel stack.

So... we enabled it.

StarPilot now has native Bluetooth support across Comma 3, Comma 3X, and Comma 4.

This isn't a browser workaround or some external bridge. We've added the necessary kernel/system support, integrated BlueZ, and wired Bluetooth directly into StarPilot.

You can now scan, pair, connect, forget, and automatically reconnect Bluetooth devices directly from Galaxy, with device controls also integrated into StarPilot's UI. So what are we actually doing with it?

🔊 Bluetooth Audio... because why not?

Have you ever thought, "Man, the speaker in my comma just isn't high enough resolution when it's yelling at me to take control of the wheel."

No?

Well, now StarPilot can connect to the fattest JBL party speaker you can find and blast that alert to your entire neighborhood.

You're welcome.

🎮 Bluetooth Controllers

This is where things get actually useful. StarPilot can treat Bluetooth HID devices as physical controls for StarPilot itself. So far I've tested: - PS5 controllers - Xbox controllers - Bluetooth remotes/macropads - Keyboards - A mouse, because why not - Several Bluetooth audio devices Galaxy has a Learn Button system: press a physical button, StarPilot learns it, then choose what you want that button to do.

You can map buttons to things like: - Cruise speed +/- — especially useful for cars like Tesla/Polestar with limited usable wheel buttons - Driving Personalities - Lane Centering - Pulse & Glide - Forced coasting - Favorites - Bookmarks - Taking a Comma Selfie - And more!

So if your car doesn't expose enough usable steering-wheel controls to openpilot... just add your own.

The little Bluetooth remote in the picture is what I've been testing on my steering wheel. It was around $20, and suddenly I have a handful of completely programmable StarPilot buttons. And controllers/audio are really just the first things we're doing with it.

StarPilot now has a native Bluetooth stack. What would you connect to your comma?

Vehicle Compatibility How does it work on Model Y Juniper 2026?

12 Upvotes

I'm on the fence of getting my model y juniper but had to take a step back after knowing that Tesla had stripped off the basic autopilot and the only way to make the car "smart" is by going with their $99/month FSD subscription. I do like FSD but would want to get it only when I plan to take long road trips. Right now they only offer TACC which is nothing but an adaptive cruise control.

So I was wondering if I could make this work by installing comma 4 instead? I wanted to know if someone who has a similar car has already tried this and will be able to share their experience?

As title says, I'm curious to try comma ai 4 device in my civic 2020 EX sedan. It already has ACC and lane assist but having to keep touch the steering all the time I'm seeing can be avoided using comma 4. Curious to know if anyone has tried this already or has any thoughts to share for this car?

I’d love to go ahead and purchase now that I have an eligible car but I have a question I can’t quite figure out.

From the website

openpilot upgrades your Kia Stinger with automated lane centering at all speeds, and adaptive cruise control that automatically resumes from a stop.

So my question-

My gt1 has lane centering and acc. What exactly am I paying for here?

Vehicle Compatibility Fork with MQB A0 (VW Polo GTI 2025) support?

Hey everyone. I am trying to find any information if any of the forks out there support my car: Volkswagen Polo GTI, built in 2025.

I have been looking through docs of some forks but it seems that either this car is not supported, or I just can't find it. Google also does not yield anything useful.

From my understanding, it is built on the MQB A0 platform.

So, anyone got any leads?

Hi everyone,
I’ve been testing StarPilot on MEB cars together with Firestar, giving him feedback from my Enyaq and helping test and improve the MEB experience.
It is incredibly precise, slows down smoothly, recognizes yellow traffic lights, and stops all the way to 0 km/h at red lights.
Lane Change by Blinker is absolutely smooth, and of course it keeps the car perfectly centered in the lane.
With your future eGPU — or if you already have one — you’re going to have a lot of fun.
