Guys, I’m still getting that md5 error message. Any ideas how to solve it? Many thanks

What format are you using?
Can you try different stick?

I tried both FAT32 and ExFAT. On a 3.0 USB stick and also SD card with adaptor.

Could it be that I unzipped files and copied on a Mac not Windows?

That could be a factor

I have the same. Also tried FAT32 and ExFAT. Using a Sandisk Ultra usb3 32gb flash drive.
I tried so many times to get the map update unzipped, and finally cracked it…….
Now getting the md5 error.
I wish there was a service to just buy a drive which was ready to go.
I am using windows.

Ok same here @Miglegic using Mac could be your problem
@Susanna what program did you use to unzip

If you are using a MAC, make sure you have the option to show all files. I've heard cases of the MAC not copying all of the unzipped files to the USB drive.

Yeah, this used to be an issue with updating my previous Toyota cars as well. But at least they used to display the reason ?

Ah ok. Will try again. Cheers

If anyone intends to share there usb sticks remember after the update the car puts files on the stick in a folder called Android probably best to delete that folder if your going to use on another car

I used winRAR

The latest download is actually ZIP. With the correct folder name - maps

Yes that's right I don't think they had much choice but to change it

 

[Susanna]

I am pretty sure it unzipped okay. I really can’t be bothered to start all over. My brain hurts ???

 

[Miglegic]

It is the files transfer what bothers me. SD card I have is too old and slow, same for the USB to USB-C adaptor. Takes like 27 hours to complete ?
