Prius C (Audio/Electronics) :: Text Message Notification Won't Ring When IPhone Is Plugged In To USB
I just bought my new Prius C3 3 weeks ago. I noticed when I have my iphone 4s plugged in to the USB and my BT is on I don't get the notification noise that i always do when I get a text message. When I get a phone call it rings on the car speakers since I have it connected to my BT but not the text message. I commute to work over an hour each way and i hate to keep checking my phone to see if I got a text since it's not going off when I get a message.

Is there a way to disable the beep and text received message on the headunit? You have two choices, Read or Cancel. When I'm driving, I really don't care about texts at all. I don't want whatever is on the stereo obscured.

I figured out how to get the text message function to work on my head unit. It was a setting on my iPhone, under Bluetooth it was the "show notifications". Then all of a sudden bam any texts I get while in the car pop up and the HU will read them aloud, also there are a bunch of quick responses.

I just got my 2012 Prius 4, the blue tooth is paired with my Samsung Captivate (SGH-I897), however the car bluetooth will not let me answer the incomming calls whenever I hit the green call button on the screen or the call button on the steering wheel.. or any button for that matter. The only way I can answer incomming calls is to dig out my phone and answer the call on my phone.. I called toyota and 3 customer service reps called me back and guess what, I was able to answer their phone calls on the car blue tooth... but no one else... I received numerous calls and was not able to answer them using my car bluetooth...

My wife have a 14 Corolla LE Plus, no NAV and every time I get a text message it pop up on the screen and I can play the read out message over the car speaker system.
On my Camry it does not do this. I have NAV with the 7" screen. I try matching the setting of my Camry to the Corolla and it seen to be the same but still it does not ready out the message or even pop up when I get a text message.
My IPhone 5 is paired with the car that I know that for sure, all my phone book contacts and phone work just fine even play music from my phone. I can't find anything in the manual.
Gen 3 Prius (Audio/Electronics) :: 2012 - How To Disable Bluetooth Music With IPhone 5s
I have a Prius two 2012, have been using an old iPod for music over USB, and a blackberry over bluetooth handsfree profile. blackberry phones allow you to manage which BT profiles are connected, I disabled the music over BT profile. but now I just got an iPhone 5s to replace both phone and ipod, it automatically pairs with all profiles supported by the car, no disable or selection per profile. I want to play music over USB, not BT, the quality is better.
But the iPhone doesn't support both, if BT music is enabled, then that is where it goes. i have not found a way to disable the BT music. I confirmed with Apple tech support, they say the car side decides what services to pair with the phone, the iPhone just slavishly does what it is told with no user control options. Looking then at option control on the radio side, i have looked at the radio BT setups, there is no option i can find to select which profiles to automatically connect. How to configure the BT settings so the iPhone is registered only for handsfree and not BT music? Pls note that have only the basic display audio...

View 7 RepliesPrius C (Audio/Electronics) :: Talking Prompt On Car Dash Display
I've been using Google Maps on my iPhone 6 through my Prius C1's bluetooth for years, and it's 99% reliable. But only if I'm currently playing music from my phone (using the built-in Music app). If I pause the music, all the turn-by-turn directions invariably come through sounding like a shitty quality phone call. The "Talking..." prompt on the car's dash display also appears, so I'm guessing the car thinks I'm making a phone call, even though I'm not.
This wouldn't be that bad, except that every time a direction prompt sounds, the music pauses for a few seconds, playing through the shitty quality phone mode. This sounds awful, and is the main reason I want to find a solution to this problem. But it's not the only issue.
Strangely enough, if I start a navigation in Google Maps before I get into my car, the bluetooth will treat all the audio coming from my phone, including music, as a shitty quality phone call. The only way to fix it is to shut down the engine and reboot the entire car.
I've done a little bit of experimentation with Apple Maps, and it seems not to suffer from this problem. But I've been using Google Maps for ages, I'm using to the UI, and I trust it a lot more than Apple Maps. I'd much prefer to continue using Google if at all possible.
Prius C (Audio/Electronics) :: 2012 - Getting Message Accessory Uses Too Much Power And Will Be Turned Off?
When I plug my iPhone into the USB port sometimes a message pops up that says "The accessory uses too much power and will be turned off" Then a few seconds later my phone will stop charging, but then within a matter of seconds it will charge again and go on and off like this each time giving me the error message.

Gen 4 Prius (Audio/Electronics) :: Unable To Answer Incoming Calls Intermittently?
On several occasions I have had an incoming phone call, but have been unable to answer it by pushing the off-cradle icon on the steering wheel.
I am not sure of the exact error message, but it informs my phone is in use (I frequently use the dumbed down Siri feature with that button, and also use the phone to connect to Slacker and iheart radio and its pod casts through the head unit).
Gen 3 Prius (Audio/Electronics) :: 2012 - IPod (nano 6th Gen) Won't Connecting To Info Screen?
Just got a new 2012 Prius II today. Got in the car with my iPod "splitter" cable adapter (on one end it has the ipod connector and on the other end is the USB & Auxillary cables), my 6th gen ipod nano, and hooked it up only to find that the Audio info was not connecting to the screen. I found that you do not need this "splitter" cable, all you need is your ipod adapter. You can use the that auxillary cable for a Walkman or something ! Glad, I figured it out the first day or i'd be pissed trying.

All of a sudden, when I answer a bluetooth phone call, the phone call screen comes up but
1) Whatever was playing on my stereo doesn't stop and

What to do? I tried unpairing and re-pairing my phone and that did not work.

I have a nexus 6 with the 7" Entune with Nav but non jbl unit. Everything works fine except everything comes up unknown for receiving text messages. I played around with the settings a quite a bit. Rebooted the head unit countless times using the hold down the power button for 5 seconds trick. Totally uninstalled Entunes and reinstalled and reconnected it to the phone again and did all the updates with no luck. It does read the messages and the phone displays the contacts from the phone fine but the contacts on the SMS aren't syncing together. Since they are unknown, I am unable to do any of the quick messages thru the entune system.

I pretty much have my car all setup now, but one thing that I have not been able to do is receive text messages to where it will display on the in dash screen. I have the Solar Package / Premium Navigation system. As for my Phone, I have the Galaxy Note II with Android 4.1.2 (Jelly Bean) and AT&T. My phone still receives texts while connected to the car's blue tooth, and I can view on my phone, but I'm unable to view on the in dash display, which means I can't send out the quick replies either. Is there something in the phone that I need to set up?
