Has anyone updated the firmware yet on their CHR. Mine is on version 6.8.0WH but I see there is an update on the eStore.
Any advantages or wait and see if any issues before fiddling with it?

I have updated to 6.8.1. Haven't noticed anything differend. The maps are the same.

It is a small update, it installs rather quick.

Note: Use an 8GB USB stick. I tried 16GB and 32GB sticks and both failed. After contacting Toyota the adviced an 8GB stick... that worked.

Do they have release notes for these updates?

6.8.2 is only a map update, quite big 6gb, all proper firmware updates will be dealer only not from the app store

Ok so 6.8.2 installed. One thing that slightly mystified me was that the site say I would need an activation code that I carefully printed but I never got prompted for it at all and the update seems fine. I am almost permanently online so I wondered if it somehow managed to activate from my account on MyToyota.

Not really noticed anything new - not that I was expecting to with ans's comment above. I really wish they had release notes - even just to say as ans mentions that it is only a map update.

You are only prompted for the code when the map data changes. Since this update still has the same map data, the activation code is not needed.

So what's the point of the update if the data is the maps same

It's not just the maps. Someone said it fixed bigger USB music playback and I believe there are more fixes. I'm a programmer, so believe me I know about fixes no one notices

Until the update itself causes yet more bugs and problems.....just ask Microsoft! :lol:

It was over 6gb so I guess there must be a lot of bugs lol .only installed UK maps so only took 10 mins and no activation key required. Will have to see if I can extract any info from the iso image

Garry

· #13 · Mar 14, 2017

they are never bugs just features.

These updates definitely need release notes. From other posts it sounds like dealers sometimes get technical bulletins about them would be good to know.

Hi, sorry for sounding a bit thick but where do you find out which version you are on, also how do you update.
As far as I can tell my C-HR has connected with my phone and mobile hotspot and tethering is switched on, but I can't see any indication that the car is either searching or connecting to anything.
I can't see anything in the owners manual and I have registered with my toyota.
Thanks for any suggestions,
Rick.

you need a 8 gb usb stick download the file ,extract it to the stick and then insert in the usb in the car ,turn on the engine wait a few minutes and it should find the update and ask you if you want to install and what maps (i only installed uk maps as it was quickest).all the info is on the estore site after you purchases the map (it is free or at least should be if you have an account).
