    I have an LG basic flip phone (Dumb Phone) and everytime I receive a text message while driving, the Bluetooth connection gets lost and my phone restarts. It's really getting annoying, does anyone have a suggestions (besides get a smart phone)? Thanks.

    I had similar problems with a Nokia phone which had no problems ever on my 08 Prius. I changed it for a Motorola flip phone with better results. I guess the new system is designed primarily for smart phones.

    Are you all using DA and Entune/Nav system?
    care to share the model numbers of the devices and the carrier or complain to Toyota customer service with the sepecifics on that matter.
