    I have a 2012 Prius Three with Display Audio w Nav. I am looking at pages 175 thru 178 in the second section of the Display Audio manual (ver U 11.a01) that came with my car. When I get a call, I get the exact image shown on page 176 showing caller name, number on the left side and 6 buttons on the right side. The manual also shows a "picture of the other party" - there are 8 examples in the manual showing caller images.

    I tried Live Chat at Toyota Owners, but they said 'your model just doesn't have that feature.' With all due respect I'm not sure I believe them in that my screen matches the manual image exactly except for no caller images. And everything else about the bluetooth phone setup & operation worked as described in the manual.

    Any ideas?

    FWIW

    I wondered if it could be the size of the images, but they are small (4K) jpegs, and my Display Audio will display much larger jpeg images via USB. Maybe something different about the bluetooth phone software...

    The images were not originally in my phone contacts, just added them yesterday. There's no refresh contacts option that I can see, so I assume contacts are automatically refreshed every time my phone connects with the car. But I don't know for a fact...

    Wow, 154 views and no responses. I tried calling Toyota again, the guy really tried to help but no luck.

    I think I'll try another more direct post...
