^^^ same here.
Have you tried updating the software? I haven't had any issues since I updated several months ago.

I have been having this issue since I got mine in 14'. Last trip to the dealer I asked them to update Entune and they said it would cost $150. I said no way and argued with the guy until I was so annoyed I just didn't want to talk to him anymore. Was the rudest service adviser I'd ever dealt with but that's not saying much since 99% of them aren't helpful at all.
Decided to do the update myself but when I plug in the flash drive and go to run the update the screen says cannot run update while USB in progress.
I'd love to figure this out since it is pretty annoying having to hold the main button down and reset every time.

I had the same issue with my dealer. As far as the update, I'm not sure what to tell you. I started with a freshly formatted USB and followed Toyota's directions step by step. It worked the first time I tried it. The head unit has worked like a champ since I did the update.

I am going to try deleting everything off of my thumb drive except for the update. Hopefully that should do it.
Thanks.

Not sure if you fixed this yet but, I had the same issue. Do you use usb for music? If so go select another source like fm and then try the usb update. I did mine about a month ago and so far so good.

Are you referring to the issue where entune freezes and you have to turn the car off to get it backs. Otherwise it will keep rebooting.
I’m at a dealership now for a scheduled maintenance. They said it is not a known issue and I need to pay for diagnostics. If there is a self service method, I am all for that. Thanks

No need to restart the vehicle. Press and hold the power/volume knob for 5-10 seconds. This will cause the head unit to reboot.
This is a totally self-service item. See the link I posted earlier in the thread. No way I would pay the dealer to do the update.

I have tried holding it in(that sounds bad) but no luck. I have to kill the switched power at the key. I will try again when it happens. Thanks

I'm gonna try this this weekend. I haven't experienced any symptoms but I've only had the truck for a month.
I tried to update it last night but it did not recognize the update on my thumb drive.
Mine seems worse when my iPhone is plugged in. The USB port also sometimes doesn't charge. Both are remedied by the hold and reboot as described above. Still a pain though.
