Nope, I don't have an Android phone. I tried CarPlay via cable and it's also not working.

I think I selected LVDS or something like that.
Nope. I was under the impression all harness cables (T-connectors) goes to the back of the radio headunit.

Thank you for this one. I got the advance settings code from the previous post. I'll plug that loose cable to the touchpad tomorrow.

Btw, I don't have the T-harness for a joystick connector. The only cable I left unplugged is the one labeled "touch pad only".

Hopefully this fixes the issue of not being able to switch back to Android screen.

I left it unplugged for the meantime since I'm waiting from Lexion to respond.

He’s not going to respond best bet is to plug that touchpad only harness to back of touchpad connector don’t connect to radio. Mine came with touchpad only connector but it was taped up so I don’t accidentally use it since mine is joystick for IS model.
You can also switch between oem to Android by using radio button and media button. If you last used Aux input in media and then you press radio it will go to Lexus. Press media button again it goes back to Android. This is kind of neat sometime I want to listen to radio I don’t have to hold down menu button.

He uses WhatsApp daily, and multiple times a day. So his lack of responding is not for anything other than poor customer service.

Do you have a Joystick? For some reason Lexion wraps up the joystick plug into the harness so you don't even know its there. If you see a bulge in the harness, carefully cut the wrap and you will expose the joystick plug.

I would plug that connector in. I got mine in on Monday and installed it. Everything works correctly. Touchpad, backup camera, even the air temp is correct. It got off by 1 degree when I changed it too quick up then back down so I did the reverse and changed it down then back up real quick and it got back in sync. I went through and hooked everything up first after I ran the wires and the part that seemed a bit off was the touchpad part because the wire splits and runs under your center console while still needing the length to run back to the unit. I didn't think it was correct but went ahead and ran it that way and plugged it all in. Works correctly. I would do as others suggested and just plug it in instead of waiting for them to respond.

yah and in what's app, you can see if someone has seen and read your message, when the check marks turn blue. So he's seen all my requests for help and updates he's just choosing to leave me on read. Which is why I gave up and filed a charge back.

I even asked him if he wanted me to relay the fact that he was getting surgery back here tohehe forum since I was seeing lots of upset folks and nothing. So, I can only try to be understanding for so long.

Yep, as a small business owner, whenever I am unreachable, I leave status replies on everything: email, WhatsApp, IG, my website, FB messenger etc. I understand life happens, but if you’re well enough to read WhatsApp, you’re well enough to give a status update that you are doing surgery and will respond later.

Do you remember a list of settings to change?

1. I tried LVDS in camera - backup camera still not working.

2. When in Google maps and in navigation mode, the screen keeps switching between oem and android. So it switches to oem, and when there is a turn, it switches to android for a 2 seconds and goes back to oem screen.

3. No audio on android side

4. I can hear the oem audio when i'm in android side.

I think this unit is facked up!

Time for Paypal dispute?

So just to cover several items. You verified you have all the plugs plugged into the correct ports and you made sure you connected the yellow RCA cable to the yellow female RCA cable on the box? You'll have no camera if that's not plugged in (I know that because I didn't plug it together). I also unplugged and plugged back all of the connectors to make sure I had them all connected correctly. I want to say it was something like 11 plugs total (this is including the plugs you plug back into the OEM system). Again that's an estimate of the number of plugs that got plugged in to the new system and new system to the OEM ports. If that makes sense?

Thanks for your time on this.

I did plugged in the microphone and the yellow RCA jacks labeled "camera". I know I did made sure I plugged both of them tightly.
Plugged in all the harness T-connectors ends, except the touchpad.

Routed 2 USB inputs that are labeled carplay and android to a accessible exposed area.
There are a couple of rca jacks which i didn't even bother since they have no use.

I hope the issue all lies to that touchpad connector, hopefully, since I can't fully switch to Android. The unit does it itself.

Btw, what is the combo to switch between OEM to Android display?

Not really a combo, but to switch back and forth, i just press and hold the 'MENU' button and it switches between the two for me.
