Clock question (12- / 24-hour)
I’ve enable the 12 hour time setting on my 2024, NX 350h, but I’ve noticed that when I use navigation, the arrival time on the center screen just below the time is in 24 hour time (along with the little destination icon). Am I missing a setting or is it “just the way it is”? Thanks in advance.

The latest gen NX has built in navigation that is sourced from Google maps. It is primarily provided by over the air data, and in circumstances where cell signals are week it will rely upon stored data pulled in for maps to continue to function for a short time (my estimate as I assume it would only pull in so much and won't run forever). So not sure why your changed settings to 12 hr clock doesn't 'stick' I know the time is displayed on your centre stack display and in your main dash display too. Do those locations go to 12 hr for you when you switch?
If you're using apple or android maps via your phone then the display time shown in your map data would come from your phone's app obviously.

Yea, I've been wondering whether the original complaint was related to nav within Android Auto or Car Play. Just for interest, I tried turning 24 hr clock on and off, and not only did it change the format of time display within the car, it also changed the format of the arrival time within the NATIVE lexus navigation system. However, as described by TheCDN, if using nav linked to your phone, then your phone settings will prevail for this stuff.

The clock showing in 24 hour time here is a bug.
Even worse, in my timezone it doesn't change the destination time according to Daylight Savings time, so during Daylight Savings, it's one hour off as well.
I told my dealer about this two years ago. They replicated it. They lodged a DPR with Lexus. What have Lexus done about it. NOTHING. Which in this day and age, especially with over-the-air updates, is disgraceful. Lexus/Toyota need to pull their head out of the dark ages when it comes to car software. Do it properly, or don't do it at all.
Same as I've not had any updates to my car in over a year now. The car has a web browser built-in. My bet is it's Android based and I'm sure there are security issues with the web browser that have cropped up during that time period. Are any updates deployed, nope. I wonder how long it's going to be before we see a security compromise of Toyota/Lexus systems due to the car operating systems not being patched for security issues, and some hacker getting into their car network via that method.

I believe Toyota uses Linux as its base operating system (AGL version specifically), which is a cousin to Android (which branched from Linux decades ago)

So you don't have a screen in your settings menu to adjust your time zone and daylight savings settings like in this video?
Yep, but it doesn't affect this. The actual time display is correct and as per preferences. It's ONLY the estimated arrival time when navigating. The secondary time that shows up underneath the primary time on the right side of the MID.
It's like the person who coded that time display just took a dumb dump of the raw estimated time field and forgot to apply proper timezone and 12/24h preferences to it. It's dumb, it's only 24 hour time, no matter what preferences you set, and (in my timezone) it doesn't understand daylight savings time.
