    Hi everyone ! happy owner of Prius 4 (Barcelona Red Metallic and black interior), love riding it specially some changes like LED DRL n rear LED's changes.
    Now I am looking to replace the 15" to 17" stock soon with Yokohoma all season tires.
    Also had some issues with the Navigation.
    1) When is try to connect or see my text messages it give me a message that its nov available or not supported on my bluetooth device and mines is iPhone 4 (factory unlock on T-mobile). So any idea how to fix it???
    2) Also i cant listen to music on my bluetooth thru my iphone 4 ( at the same time it has worked flawlessly on my 2011 sienna, 2012 VW CC)
    3) Also when i try to connect to Entune i am not able to it says connection failed, even though I have registered with Entune.

    Besides that I love the ride and the great fuel MPG i see.:)

    Welcome aboard and enjoy the new ride! Can't answer questions about the nav, but remember, if you have any problems at all, you can call or go to the dealer and have them help you out.

    Of course there are some really smart cookies on the board here...

    1) Doesn't work with iPhone. Actually, I'm not sure it works with any phone.

    2) You don't say which Nav unit you have. If you have the 6" Display Audio unit, the phone must be connected via the USB port, I believe. If you have the 7" HDD Nav, then you can stream via Bluetooth. Try plugging the phone into the USB port and see if it works then.

    3) You must have the Entune app running on your phone. You can download it from the App Store. It's free. Open the app and log in using your Entune login. Be aware that Entune uses your phone's data plan.

    Hope this helps.

    I've read on here, that the iPhone 4 has issues using Bluetooth for Entune. I'm pretty sure that's what it was, as my friend has no issues when plugging his into the USB but it doesn't work over Bluetooth.

    I have the non-nav 6.1 inch display and I can stream via blue tooth. However, I have iPhone 4s.

    I wasn't sure. There seem to be conflicting reports.

    I have the 7" HDD Nav and an iPhone 4s and I can stream via Bluetooth with no problem.

    I have prius 4 with stock nav 6.1 not the premium hdd. I went to the dealer yesterday but the iphone wont play songs in the car , then it started playing one of the song n then stopped but the device would show a different title then the one playing. So i got tired and today decided to update my phone n see if that works.
    I will let u knw abt the outcome.
