Why does Siri bluetooth connection in 2008 Toyota Prius with iOS 8 terminate outgoing call with message "call terminated by network" on Prius screen

I''m now able to call hands free from my 2007 Prius with 8.2 but the day I upgraded to 8.2 I started getting error messages about the SIM. This is completely unrelated to the Prius issue but users on this thread should be aware of since nearly all of us will want to upgrade to 8.2 immediately.

I did not write down the error message verbatim but will do so on the next occurence. There is no way to reproduce this bug other than to wait until it happens. When it does I'm unable to make a cellular connection to the internet. Rebooting the phone solves the problem temporarily. There have been multiple occurences.

So far there have been no other postings with exactly the same symptoms so I will start a new thread.

Has anyone on this list tried iOS 8.3? I'm reluctant to tempt the fates.

iOS 8.2 solved my Prius connection problem but introduced a new one. The message "No Sim Card Installed" is displayed. After that you have to reboot your phone to get cell access"

This error may depend on who your cell access provider is. In my case it's Verizon.

If 8.3 solves the SIM problem without reintroducing the Prius connection problem that would be a good thing.

Yes- Please let us know if 8.3 breaks the 8.2 fix or if we are OK to upgrade. Weary of being an early adopter.

iOS 8.3 is good with iPhone 5 & BT/hands free in '08 Prius, did not break for me.

8.2 works for me in the '08 Camry Hybrid. I haven't upgraded to 8.3 yet. No time lately... 🙂

I also found out I was out of "spaces" for BT phones. I had to go into Telephones, then Delete several older versions in order to add my 6.

Seems like I am late to the party, but I just bought a 2011 Toyota Prius. My iPhone 6 Plus is running iOS 8.4. Upon connecting the phone to BT and activating Siri to make a call, the Prius alerts me "Call Disconnected" and simultaneously says "Audio Off" at the top of the screen. Although I have nothing to compare it to except these previous posts, it seems like iOS 8.4 breaks the 8.2 fix.

Same thing here - I never did get it to work with our 2010 Prius. I tried every suggestion in this thread - remains broken. It does work on our 2009 Lexus just fine - and that's Toyota.

I Recently purchased a CPO 2011 Toyota Highlander Limited with JBL/Nav. I cannot use Siri to initiate calls in this car. Works fine with any other Bluetooth kit in other cars I've owned and tried.

I Have iOS 9.0.2

This problem was fixed in 8.3. After this bad experience I haven't upgraded my iPhone for two years. Since hands free dialing with Siri is the most important feature of my phone I haven’t dared upgrade since then.

I just upgraded my iPad to 10.1.1 and it seems to be working fine.

Has anyone with a 2007 or 2008 Prius upgraded their phone to 10.1.1 without any problems?

I'd simply try it except iOS upgrades are a one way ticket. If you have problems you can't go back.

I've got a 2016 Rav4 Hybrid My iPhone stopped playing music with Bluetooth since I upgraded to 10.1.1. It acts like it's playing, but no sound.

The phone works and I can still plug into the USB to play music.

Did you ever get this resolved with your Venza? I'm having the same issue. Any insights would be greatly appreciated.
