    I was wondering if anyone else has this problem. I loose connection with my phone every time I shut it off. I'm certainly not going to live in my truck down by the river just for the sake of Bluetooth. Thanks

    An Entune update was posted here last week, download and install it. I'm hoping it'll fix my Bluetooth issues.

    This may be related to the phone as much as it is the stereo head unit folks.

    Your phone has software and hardware in it with certain Bluetooth versions, etc.

    I'll have to look for that and see if it covers 2013 entune/nav.

    Mine seems to do bluetooth fine, but every so often it messes up on either the BT or when I have it on USB (I have around 1300 songs on a card that stays inserted). When it happens, mine says "STOPPED". It's a pain in the ass because when it does that it often won't play anything until a new key cycle has occurred. Sometimes if I put it on a radio station for a few minutes and put it back to the others it will reload and play fine afterwards. It's getting old to deal with. It doesn't happen that often but it has been happening for a year or so.

    Found the update and installed it. Hope it helps :fingerscrossed:

    And it didn't help. Got the dreaded "STOPPED" again today on an hour long drive. POS toyota entune... and they're shitty updates. Maybe I'll take a trip to the dealer and let them deal with it. Might even tell 'em I want the new weather stripping for the crosswind whistle while I'm at it. Drink they're F'n sodas and watch they're damn TV. LOL
