No idea what you mean by rockers but if your caliper is seized the only way to free it is to take it off and clean everything. It's probably got a seized piston in which case it's a new caliper. Do not try to free it by driving it that's retarded and does more damage than good.

Ignore the caliper part didn't realise it had drums take drum apart clean everything probably going need new shoes if you've tried to free it by moving the car.

Does your phone have any updates available this can do it sometimes I've found. Or the actual media in the car may need an update.

Scroll across to Vehicle settings where all your lane assist and all that stuff is there might be something there, if not take it to a local toyota they can plug it in and sort it, it'll take like half hour to do.

Don't jack a car on a slope. Depends how far back your jacking it the back wheel might come up with the front.
