DIY: Used 2012 Toyota Display Audio with Entune
 

BACKGROUND
WHO:
- Me, aka cheapass
- 2013 Scion FR-S with the regular Scion stereo

WHAT:
- Used 2012 Corolla Nav / Entune off of eBay
- I had to buy a new entune wiring harness, OEM "C" scion stereo brackets, and a gps antenna.

WHY:
-Save some $$$!!! I got it WAY cheaper than buying a new Scion Display Audio unit, and extension box.
- No custom wiring harnesses because everything plugs in!
- Keep your factory microphone, usb connector, and auxiliary input.
- It’s also ready to add an OEM backup camera and XM radio.

Differences of Toyota Display Audio vs Scion Display Audio ?
Positives
- The startup screen is the Toyota logo for all you JDM types.
- I believe you can upload a different image via USB if you want to change it so that’s pretty moot. Here's a link: http://toyota-entune.com/forum/viewt...70dd1c23#p1818

Negatives
- No vehicle specific audio tuning (xA, xB, xC, xD, FR-S, etc)
- No SSP (feel, hear, etc.)
- No voice command button (picture); You get an eject button, and a pause/play button.

NOTES
TOYOTA DISPLAY AUDIO:
Positives:
- Bluetooth seems to work better for sending song information versus the original scion stereo. Pandora sends more information on my Samsung Galaxy S2.
- Phone capabilities are better; it’s much easier to use your phone book and history. Voice command on my Galaxy S2 sucks so I prefer to use Display Audio’s interface.
- The night lighting color matches the orange in the rest of the interior.

Negatives:
- The sound is pretty flat. The factory equalizer adjustment is a joke (low, mid high). I boosted some low end, and have used my phone’s built in equalizer to compensate. Not sure how much my brain is making up but I remember the original stereo sounding more full. I’d like to compare it to someone else’s OEM Scion setup.
- I would really like to reflash this thing to Scion’s programming. I’m sure there is some way to do it. If you have any info, please hit me up.

ENTUNE EXTENSION:
- Enables Navigation
- Enables texting capabilities for your phone. I haven’t tried it, seems pretty gimmicky.
- Entune Apps: Seems super gimmicky, only useful ones appear to be weather, traffic, Pandora and iHeartRadio

- Requires the creation of an online account to use the apps, which asks for a vehicle VIN. =(
- It has been recently made free. http://www.engadget.com/2013/09/12/t...s-entune-fees/
- Operates in conjunction with an Entune app for your phone. I hear the app sucks, go figure.
- Entune is an upgradeable system; requires the Entune app or dealer service. Priuschat has uploaded version 2.1.0. I hear it breaks bluetooth connectivity for some phones so I wouldn’t be in a rush to upgrade. I’ve also read that it forces the use of the Entune app, which is not compatible with all phones. I would avoid it for now.

-I’m wondering if this can also be reflashed to become Bespoke with Aha. I’m not sure how much difference there is but both extension boxes are made by Harman and look similar, so I’m guessing the hardware is the exact same. If you have any info, please hit me up.

ENTUNE Update - V 5.2.0

Official Entune Update directly from Toyota!

TL;DR

ENTUNE Update - 3.2.0
 

ENTUNE Update - V 3.2.0

Hurray! Thanks to our sister forum Toyota Nation (TY Glramos!), We now have an update to Entune 3.2.0!

Check it out here: http://www.toyotanation.com/forum/32...load-link.html

I just updated from an ancient 1.8.4 to 3.2! And I'm happy to report that it fixed my Pandora issue (wouldn't play high quality audio).

:party0030:

Just like the instructions say, download the files and copy the iso + txt to a flash drive titled 14A. Start your engine and plug it in, follow the directions on screen and wait!

Awesome mods.. I'll be looking into this sometime for the GPS!
Thank you

I'm assuming you have to have EnTune already and not AHA?

You could try but it probably won't work. I'm pretty sure the hardware is identical but the update probably checks if it's the correct system. The update identified my Entune version prior to installation.

I now have iHeartRadio, MovieTickets.com , and OpenTable. From what I can tell, Aha has more functionality than Bespoke. *shrughs* I've never used it.

What about sub out for subwoofers?

I don't see anything in the manual about subwoofers.

Sorry, I misread your post. No, I do not have the Scion Aha extension box. I have an Entune extension box out of a Toyota.

Has anyone changed the start up screen for the 14 unit using this method?

Is this effectively the same as the '14 Bespoke unit? Based on the user manuals, it appears to be the case.

Shame that the FR-Ss are essentially still using the original Toyota Entune units. I have the latest Entune unit on my '14 Rav4 and it is quite the upgrade (higher res screen, little more user friendly, more user friendly nav, better and more capable voice commands). I much prefer it to the 7" HDD Entune unit that is in my '12 Prius v Five (advanced tech package).

My Toyota unit? It's a 2012 corolla entune unit, it might be the same as your Prius V. I think it's the same, I know it's the same one as the Prius C.

Is your Rav4 unit one of the systems with a custom dash integration? Or is it a standard DIN style one? All the scions use the double DIN style head unit, so until the Toyota corporate double din gets upgraded then no dice. I'll keep a look out though, this screen is ancient tech.

DIY: Used 2012 Toyota Display Audio with Entune
 

My v has the 7" unit. HDD based instead of flash like yours and all the new ones. It was sort of a relic that had Entune adapted to it.

Rav is integrated, but I'm more talking about the software rather than the physical unit itself. Looking through the Scion manuals, the screens look almost identical to the '12 Camry Display Audio and Display Audio with Entune units. Basically, if you've messed with a '14 FR-S bespoke, how similar is it to the '12 corolla Entune you have?

I guess we'll see if the soon to be released '15 models get a new radio.
