Rav 4 Radio Software Update
Hi Justin,I was wondering if you still have the same problem and whether you could find a solution to the problem. The same problem happened to me almost around the same time as you post your question here. Before going to dealer, I search the web if someone else had this problem, and I noticed the exact same problem with the radio unit/navigation unit had happened with the Lexus cars, and some Toyota cars ('they didn't mentioned specifcally about Toyota Corolla'). Here is the link to it Can't send link due the being a new member, you can search it use keywords: Lexus nav systems broken by 'errant' traffic and weather data So I decided to take my car to Toyota Dealer and explain them the story, and after they gave me a 3 weeks appointment, I took my car there 3 weeks ago, and after 1 hour waiting, they guy comes back and say this Unit needs to be replaced, and told me you just went over your warranty by extra 5km.
Upgrade your Toyota Entune navigation radio with original equipment. Get a larger screen, Bluetooth connectivity or Apple CarPlay / Android Auto compatibility. 30-Day Return. 90-Days Tech Support. 1-Year Extended Warranty Availabel. Come find your new Toyota nav-radio system at Infotainment.com.
Anyway, I asked this is impossible, this looks to me just a Firmware issue, that could be resolved by flashing the firmware. Long story short, he basically told me this is what we are supposed to tell you from Toyota 'You need to replace your radio Unit'. This problem started for me just this last weekend. I called entune customer service and support who told me I needed a firmware update. I got it to the dealer on Tuesday, after I tried several things myself.
Unhooked the battery, took the dash off as suggested in the video, unhooked and re plugged in everything. Still no success. Dealer also says I need a new system and they can't update the firmware. I notice my USB doesn't work to charge my phone which might be significant, but I don't know. I have had this car less than a year.
I'm also out of warranty with only 43000 on my Corolla. All I can say is I'm disgusted with the service I got from the dealer I took my car too. I know that there have been several people with the same issue. Please post if you find a solution.interestingly enough, the manufacture date on the system is February 2014. My car is a Corolla 2014 S. Hey susan thanks for that interestingly enough the rep who checked me in mentioned it may just be a firmware update that only the dealer can do.
But what is odd I was looking into those said updates they supposedly all happened in 2014 turning the radio from one company to another via an update patch. I think the new radio name after the update is fuijitsu.
Ill b honest I hope it is just that cause if they come with we have to replace the unit I'm probably just going to leave the dealership screaming FOH hahaha. Hi Justin,I was wondering if you still have the same problem and whether you could find a solution to the problem.

Long story short, he basically told me this is what we are supposed to tell you from Toyota 'You need to replace your radio Unit'. My 2014 Corolla's entune touch screen radio had the same issue. One day the radio just stopped working, it wouldn't let me touch anything and it was frozen.

I held the power button down to reset it then it started with the update loop and didn't stop for weeks. I was going to get a new radio for my anniversary this month but this Tuesday the radio came on when I started the car for work. I hardly even noticed because the radio didn't play when it came on. It played fine and when it asked to do the mandatory update I denied. The next day I let it do the update because I knew it wouldn't stop asking and it updated fine. I'm really shocked that it came back on its own.
Especially after reading this forum and no one finding a solution. I think I'll trade it in for a better car before it happens again. Not fair of Toyota to ignore this issue.
