For those having Panasonic UNITS, specifically getting the red screen and 001 ERROR, try again using this potential fix: Instructions for Fixing Error 01 and Enabling Android Auto/CarPlay 1. Delete phaseup.dat file from the USB 2. On your radio, press the SETUP button. Select the option to delete user data. 3. Restart the radio by pressing the power button (radio power button). Connect your phone (use original cable or certified) Android Auto/CarPlay should now appear. Follow these steps to resolve the error and enable Android Auto/CarPlay. PS: if not automatically detected, after connecting the phone via cable, go to the infotainment, sources and click on the USB (your phone). That should kick in the process and press Always on when prompted so you don't need to do it every time. let me know if worked and what model infotainment you had before, and what is now

[@ozkneto]

Hi Costel, first, thanks a lot for doing this! I've just tried with my 2019 Corolla but unfortunately it didn't work. The model is 17TDT2EU-DA01. I got first the Error 001 message and proceeded to use your fix, the software was updated sucessfully because the Audio version changed (was 1011 and now is 1020), but nothing happens when I connect an Android phone. I've tried with a Xiaomi Rednote 10 and a Samsung Galaxy Note 20, both with original cables. On Sources, the USB option is disabled, I can't select it. Looking back at the video again, when you show that after the update in the software information is saying it's an open source one, on mine nothing changes, it's still the same as before. Found another person commented that his Audio was upgraded from 1020 to 1023, mine is still 1020 after the update... Any ideas please? Thanks.

[@ozkneto]

Found another person with the same DCU unit as me but apparently he used 3 USB sticks and in your there is just USB3... Can you help please?

Hello friend, thank you so much for your efforts, a question, dose this package works for Toyota corolla (pioneer) 2020 USA?

[@CostelTarata]

I guess you can try and see. But this is a firmware for Denso Fujitsu hardware, therefore I guess the Pioneer unit would not recognize the update file.

[@alespodgornik]

Info on upgrading the Unit with NAVIGATION: Hi. Thanks for upload. Installed it according to your instructions and it works. Sometimes I need to "activate" phone for Carunit to recognize AndroidAuto (but usualy detects it on its own). This means I have to touch phone screen or push one of buttons on the phone. I connect through cable. As for people asking regarding Unit with navigation. I installed it on RAV4 Hybrid MY2019 (one of the first of new models in country as it was showroom model) with Touch2Go + NAVI. Therefore I can confirm it works with the unit that is originaly shipped with navigation. After update all maps remained and I can still use "original" navigation if needed. Must say, that I didn't upgrade maps since end of 2022 when initial 3 year subscription expired. Before update: ID DCU 17TDT1EU-CA01 ID MEU 17TMT2EU-FA00 Audio: 1105 Navigation: 1512 Map: 2022 v2 After update: ID DCU 17TDT1EU-CA32 ID MEU 17TMT2EU-FA00 Audio: 1257 Navigation: 1512 Map: 2022 v2

hi there. I am not sure about this unit as the firmware is for the Denso/Fujitsu one. You can try and see what is the outcome, like checking if even recognizes the update from your radio settings. it might work, or not. The good thing is that it should not affect your existing configuration as this is just an AUDIO module update. Either way, do it at your one consideration and responsibility.

Hi there. It will most likely work if the model you have is listed within the description. Now concerning warranty, not sure what to answer. The firmware is open source from the unit manufacturer, not from Toyota and will only update the Audio Firmware and not the car software.

For those which are wondering about the 3 USB sticks: as can be seen in the video, Costel's Toyota was without nav so it needed only one USB (the 3rd one)!

Original versions vs final versions: DCU = 17TDT2EU-DA02 -> 17TDT2EU-DA30 MEU = 17TMT2EU-FA00 -> 17TMT2EU-FA10 Audio = 1000 -> 1075 Nav = 1512 -> 1120 Note: after all these, I also used a 4th USB with only 17TMT2EU-FA10_1170.kwi and 17TDT2EU-DA30_0076.kwi (17TMT2EU-FA10_latest zip and 17TDT2EU-DA30_latest zip from toyota-motor-europe) which did an additional final upgrade: DCU = 17TDT2EU-DA30 MEU = 17TMT2EU-FA10 Audio = 1075 -> 1170 Nav = 1120 -> 1170 In the end, there is an excellent Android Auto connection: both Google Maps or Nokia/Here Maps work excellent and navigation indications are also shown on the digital speedometer (same way as the original Toyota maps did).

[@CostelTarata]

This is an amazing description mate. Hope it will be useful as well to others!!!

[@RazZzy1]

Hi, where exaclty is BE_00439T_TME pdf ?

[@goranstanojevic985]

Hi. Thank you very much for your upload. I installed it, and my Android phone works with a Carlinkit but not with the cable!! It looks like it preferes, Appel. But anyway I am happy 😊. 2019 Rav4 with Navigation.

[@CostelTarata]

Glad that it helped mate! Mine has no navi and both Apple CarPlay and android auto work with cable only. There are few ppl here with navi that they struggled on getting it to pass the “installation failed screen” so if you can share your experience on this it will help a lot.

[@goranstanojevic985]

@costel.tarata I followed your instructions and went out to the car plugged in the USB and started the car pressed the update button and it started loading from the USB after i accepted on screen. Had to stop the engine and start it again after the update. After the installation i did like in the video opened phone menu and to the Apple/Android connection, connected Android, disconnected the usb and connected the cable from the phone, and here it's getting weird when Android auto starts it's crashes after 1 or 2 seconds. I tried 2-3 times and then i put the settings to Apple and connected my dongle, I worked right away. On my test drive i used the car navigation and there was no problem. My infosystem 17TDT1EU-CA01

[@RafickBottse]

Hi i see you have the 17TDT2EU-DA30 in the list but I've checked mine and its "17TDT2TH-DA30" wil it still work? My hilux 2021 is from thailand

[@CostelTarata]

Im afraid only for EU spec cars mate, as the option was not available from factory as in Asia or Americas

[@jg_ab8233]

Will this work on a 2021 Toyota Rav4 with only airplay and not android auto compatible?

[@CostelTarata]

Check the versions in the description. If yours is there, try and follow the steps

[@MyChillZoneYT]

Can i just leave the file on a laptop and plug it into the car to do the update ? i dont have a USB drive handy

[@CostelTarata]

the process of how USB firmware update works is not as simple as how a laptop will allow it. so it will not work

[@mtbalpinecounty]

💪

[@VereintesChristentum]

Where is the difference between the navigation / non navigation Units and what happend if it’s failed? Is my whole system then ruined?

[@CostelTarata]

It should not affect your system. The firmware is designed to update your audio module only. For all those that failed nothing changed apparently. Either way, you can try and see, only if you want. In the video I do it on my car without any navigation enabled. My unit has Navi, just is not enabled from factory

[@Diarmuidt]

Thanks for the guide. I downloaded extracted and formatted the drive to FAT32 but when I plug in to the Rav4 it does nothing not even recognize the USB. Any suggestions? FYI the USB works fine with my iphone plugged in so it appears to be working ok

[@martinmcwhorter]

Did you unzip it and put the files at the root of the USB drive?

[@Diarmuidt]

@@martinmcwhorter I did, which is why I am confused as to why it won't recognise the USB update

[@CostelTarata]

Make sure to properly format the drive and copy paste or extract all files on the root of the drive, do not select only your firmware version

[@user-wh4kg9yn7t]

Salut ,am folosit si eu programul si pasi de instalat si mi-a aparut o eroare. Am verificat daca USB ul e conectat corect . Stii cumva ce imi cere la Error code 001?

[@user-yj3nn5nw8r]

Will it work on 2020 RX 350 Lexus FWD NAP as well?

[@CostelTarata]

Supposedly yes, if the infotainment unit model are listed in the signature. Also have in mind that some ppl could not install it on units that have navigation enabled. Either way, follow the steps and see whats the outcome.

[@alwin9491]

Would this work on an alphard 2019 December make?

[@CostelTarata]

If ia the same infotainment unit, then yes.

[@puusycat]

HUGE THANKS to Costel !!!! For anyone saying, that this does not work, you need to FIRST check the compatibility of your multimedia and THEN extract the files as shown in the video. In my car it was completely different as a process, but the outcome the same. Buddy, cannot thank you enough actually !! Greetings from Germany

[@CostelTarata]

Glad it worked mate! Enjoy your updated unit!!

[@CostelTarata]

What was your model unit, and as well what was different perhaps others got the same and unsuccessfully completed!?

[@puusycat]

@@CostelTarata model Number: 17TDT1EU-DA31 As I said the process was different. In the way that I turned the engine on first and at the same moment stuck the USB stick under the Multimedia unit. Then the multimedia restarted. A few seconds after a grey screen appeared with all the information of the stick. For at least 20min I did nothing other than wait for the process to end. In the 20min the multimedia restarted multiple times. At the end I was asked to turn the engine off and on, so that the software could be installed. The rest is history 😎

[@chaddamon9432]

Hi There, i just purchased a preowned Rav4. The model ID on my Head Unit is 17TDTZA-CA01. what i want to know is would this update be compatible for South Africa?

[@CostelTarata]

Hi there, In all honesty it was proven to work only for European models with no Active navigation. Some people made it work even there. Whether it will or not work on your car, you could try and see. Nothing bad will happen happen to the car either way. Do it and let us know, for the others from South Africa to know.

[@meta-verse]

Did you ever get around to trying this update? I have the same model head unit.

[@CostelTarata]

@@meta-verse unfortunatelly no, but you could try following the steps and see if the unit will recognize the update or not.

Does anyone have a link to software update that upgrades so you can use wireless connection with Android Auto

[@huyanhle]

Only RAV4 2022 onward can use "WIRELESS CONNECTION WITH ANDROID AUTO or APPLE CARPLAY"

That’s something very rare mate, on a before 2021-2022 car. Unless aftermarket unit.

[@Marek-qf4vf]

Hello ! Toyota Camry 2019 17TDT1EU-CA32 The radio has been updated but unfortunately the carplay option does not work. What could be the reason? 17TDT1EU-CA01 -> 17TDT1EU-CA32

[@CostelTarata]

Hi there, Try with cable, nor wifi CarPlay. Also make sure that CarPlay is not restricted from your settings, alongside with Siri. Make sure to check all these steps if the installation went successfully.

[@Marek-qf4vf]

After connecting the cable to the iPhone, it activates the "IPOD" connection in the car and the connection via Bluetooth. Siri is active... I don't know what to do. During the update, there was information - Compatibility with Apple CarPlay bug fixing@@CostelTarata

[@garrygadget]

Tried this and my unit is compatible but right at the end of the install it states data is corrupt and cannot install - so dissappointed looks like Ill have to pay Toyota. Also the link downloads a 12.7Gb file not 400mb like your video showed?

[@CostelTarata]

Mate, you must make sure that the 12.7 gb file is extracted into a fresh formatted fat32 32 gb flash drive. The final size should be around 22 GB. The install is 400 MB but the software initiating the update and the scripts are the rest. I recommend you try again following step by step including how to prepare the usb drive. Cheers

[@garrygadget]

@CostelTarata hi really appreciate your reply, that's exactly what I did to be honest. I've ordered a new usb stick incase that's the cause so I'll try again soon.

[@garrygadget]

Well tried new usb stick and formatted correctly - goes through the update process and at the very end I get a red screen and it states couldnt complete. Checked my serial number with Toyota and it can be upgraded so unfortunately Ill have to do the expensive route of getting it done. Shame and gutted as its obvious your system works but unfortunately just not for mine. Thanks anyway and its a great video pal.@@CostelTarata

[@user-ep6yd4xn9e]

After inserting usb...installation started by itself. But after 5 minutes i got a red update failed screen. What should i do?

[@CostelTarata]

Mate, please follow the steps from the video. If your model is listed in description then it should work. Cannot say the same for the ones with active Navigation units. Apparently for some worked and for some not.

[@sabahmunir]

Great video guide @Costel Tarata, thank you for the detailed explanation along with link to files. I recently bought 2019 RAV4, and surprisingly the display unit is still on 17TDT2EU-DA02, despite the car is still under warranty, previous owner for some reason didn't bother to get the update done. Anyhow, as the service is due in 9 months, I am tempted to do the update myself with the provided files. The only thing I am confused about is, there are 3 zip files: 1. Harman_Intervention_Script.zip (157 KB) 2. Full_upgrade_package_Harman_Panasonic_17MM.zip (9.6 GB) 3. Full_upgrade_package_DTEN.zip (13 GB) I noticed that you showed the third file (13 GB) for the upgrade, is that's the only one required or do I extract the content of all the 3 files into one USB? Please if you can clarify this. Thank you once again.

[@CostelTarata]

Do not mingle with the zip file. When you download it is 13 GB but then when you unpack the archive is about 22GB. Some people tried removing some archives and the installation didn’t work. I recommend following the guidelines as you see, following all the steps to ensure a successful installation. Not all the files are needed, however are there as part of the setup, and as unpackers. Happy updating!

[@sabahmunir]

Sorry but I am confused about the other 2 zip files which you shared, should that be ignored?

[@sabahmunir]

You shared 3 zip files, but you used just one zip file content to update, so the rest of the 2 zip files what to do with them and how to update?

[@CostelTarata]

@@sabahmunir please follow the steps from the video, in regards to the files.

[@CostelTarata]

@@sabahmunir the 13 GB archive should be extracted, after unpacking will be around 22 GB.
