- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 10 ส.ค. 2020
- Thanks for watching the DIY tutorial video on installing a yzg electronics Android 9 infotainment screen for the Lexus RCF. The Lexus community has a consensus along with the rest of the world that that RCF infotainment is out of date for a 2015-2018. This screen changes that and makes the RCF feel more modern and up to date. Hope you all learned something. Please feel free to comment questions below.

Quick Update: Remove the 4 yellow retention tabs from OEM screen with 2 flathead screwdrivers and install on the Android screen. There should be no movement after that. I already tested this fix to the issue. Thanks everyone.
White clip with the sharp zipt tie at th-cam.com/video/qS-4mAN9FEU/w-d-xo.html comes off, just push straight back off the plastic. Be sure not to twist or the tab will shear.
There's a shift lock release next to the shift knob so you don't have to start the car. It's a little paddle. It's there in case of towing the pop that little plastic piece out and push down and the shifter is released. th-cam.com/video/qS-4mAN9FEU/w-d-xo.html
th-cam.com/video/qS-4mAN9FEU/w-d-xo.html the only thing I didn't like about the screen is this replacement panel...it looks a little cheap. I wonder if we can mod the original to fit.
th-cam.com/video/qS-4mAN9FEU/w-d-xo.html this big plug is the speaker/amp plug. On mine the ears were too big to fit into the factory plug. I had to trim it a little for it to fit. I'm going to see if I can get a replacement sent out just in case...it feels a little off still.
Post under pinned for visibility.
@@Tenzen. Very well write up thanks for sharing.
@@thehuangbros there's no way I can do this or have the patience to do it. How much would a shop charge for labor on something like this? 1 hour worth of labor?
@@allboutthemojo i know a shop charged someone like 200. Just take your time, follow my video, save your money, buy some mcdonalds french fries and a large sweet tea after. I thought I couldn’t do it either and I had no video to follow like this. I was in a rush to make this video the same day I got the screen to help the group buy purchase. You can do it.
@@thehuangbros thanks. I like that you showed the pros and cons of the screen. Excellent review because most reviews only talk about pros. I use android and the Bluetooth music play function is very important to me.
Now that I know how to do this, I just need an RCF
You mean this won't fit my fiesta?
Jason Davis its too big. 😅 size matters sometimes.
anything can fit and hold with a little help from zipties and ducktape.
😅😅😅
Awesome how-to vid, man. Will be looking into this for my RC350 once the warranty is out. Thanks!
Thank you. I tried to make it very clear and easy for each step of this installation. Otherwise I would get millions of questions haha.
EXCELLENT demo. Idk how u did all that with ONE hand. I'll be installing this in my is250 soon. 🤝👏🏿
HAHA im assuming you are talking about my one hand filming and one hand installing? hahahahahah
I am looking around for IS300 F Sport mods and stumble across your channel. Very impressive. Thanks for the video.
Thank you. Lexus RCF channel here. 🙂
Thanks Barry for the install video. Save me a lot of time and headache. 💪
Thanks man! Im glad my methods and process helped you not waste time. Hopefully it was a quick quick install on your end with this video.
Wow, it look surprisingly good! Great write up!
Thanks man. I just wish the video quality was better. Somehow while recording the settings changed the fps. =(
Thanks for this video, details def came in handy. Keep up the great work!
Thanks for watching
Man! Your videos are GOLD! Thanks!
Thanks for watching
Thanks a bunch for the vid. I will be installing mine tomorrow.
Thanks! Please feel free to comment your questions when you do!
Thanks for posting!
Man I was looking forward to doing this, literally the only thing I really disliked about my F was the screen
Yeah Lance, it has been good so far but I can't figure apple CarPlay.
THIS IS A1 INSTRUCTION!
Takes me back to my audio install days. A lot of cues from a 1996 ES300 (in true Toyota fashion).
How much real estate is behind the headunit? I have had to jam cables in the past, but looks like it may be pretty roomy back there (even with the huge connectors).
Again, GREAT JOB!
So behind the screen, the amount of space is about 11in wide x 3in deep x 4in height of space. Plenty to tuck it all back there with no pressure on any wires. There are lots of crevices which is great. Thanks for the kind words.
Hey just had a question you linked 2 different screens in your description just wondering is the lexion screen better than the alibaba one ? Thank you also love your videos can’t tell you how much they help me 💪🏽💪🏽
Great video!
Glad you enjoyed it
Purchased my screen. Now time to install.
Let me know if you have any questions, just make sure to remove the yellow tabs behind the oem screen to transfer to new screen, that will stop the screen from “moving”. Mine doesnt move anymore after i moved the tabs. The book doesnt come with instructions so I didnt realize it had to be swapped over.
I got another model, and it came with no instructions... thankfully I found help right here !
How did yours go ?
planning to buy one.. any thoughts ?
great vid! made it really ez
Hell i learned alot from this video. Installation seems alot easier to do. Makes me want to upgrade the screen now. Can you test out the apple car play? Everyone keeps complaining about it but im not really sure what it does or if you need internet all the time to run it.
I will have a part 2 video for you all covering all these questions I am getting and to demo the android 9 screen.
Excellent video...
Thank you. I hope I put enough detail that everyone can follow and not be confused.
Nice video man 👌👌👌
much appreciated =)
Pretty helpful info 👍
Glad it was helpful!
I’m looking at my unit and couldn’t figure out what that restart button is, thanks Barry!
Bro awesome video!! I’m in the RCF FB group and I was wonder if you can use the oem mic?
Hi, yes you can use the OEM factory mic. Everything OEM will still work since all OEM functions are stored in the factory CD Player unit. So no loss of function at all. However if you were to lets say use the Android Auto screen for bluetooth phone calls, the provided speaker and mic will be needed. But, if you choose to not use those 2 items, I was informed the factory stuff would work since the factory bluetooth will be used and not through Android Auto.
Me ayuda mucho tu video estoy trabajando en canada y los modelos son diferentes gracias
Thanks for the video. Really gave me confidence to buy one and install myself...
Im very happy that I was able to give you confidence. This was something that I needed when I got this screen. I didn't want anyone to feel helpless the way I did because no instructions came with it.
Hey, excellent vid. Did you test the track pad or do you have to use touch screen only?
Hi Donald. I did try the track pad but so far, using touchscreen will be 100x faster. Using the trackpad it is not so free moving like a regular mouse.
This video is appreciated! You seem like a really nice person! Keep up the good work
Also, How much did the Android infotainment system cost you?
thanks for those kind words. so this screen was part of a group buy for RCFs. I got it for 480 shipped. original value I think is 650.
Bro Can you install mine
@@thehuangbros where did you purchase it?
@@peterchristensen2897 links are in description
Thanks for this installation video, much appreciated.
No problem. my pain and suffering is your education lol.
Lifesaver!
Which screen did you buy? This one or a different one?
great vid
Thanks Gerville!
I'm thinking of upgrading my screen on my 2014 IS250
Hi, great video and step by step instructions. I have an 2015 Lexus RC350 F Sport and was wondering if the radio will work for my car? If so, I noticed that you have two links attached to this video, the alibaba and the lesion. What is the difference?
The internal hardware really. I hear great things about lexion but never seen videos other than comparison videos. The one I have from alibaba has been great so far and of course tons of videos about it.
Hey great video! 2 questions:
How is the sound quality with this unit? Does it match the quality of the stock Bluetooth? Someone else mentioned it was flat sounding. Any work arounds?
Where can I find one?
Thank you!
My sound quality is great. I have all the eq settings on the android system set to the highest
Thanks for reminding me of why I don't do my own car repairs. lol
I tried to make it a barney style DIY video. I guess it didn't work =(
@@thehuangbros not your fault. Just a complicated process.
Its a straight forward process, i think you just confused with all those wires, nothing can go wrong if you done it step by step
Hi Barry, after seeing your video I decided to upgrade my Lexus IS300h 2014, with the same Android Auto, your instructions was very helpful. I installed it since 2 days ago and I have some questions. I have some videos on a stick ( mp4, music and podcast) and when I play them, video stops and replay every 10-15 sec bey itself. Can you give me an advice! Thank you in advance!
Hi. Thanks for using my video and giving me feedback. So I have another video on my channel about the features. Search Huang Bros Android screen features. I show how to transfer the files to the android screen. Do that and it wont lag anymore. But for short, go to file manager and copy the file and not move the file.
Thanks for this video. Do you still have full control with the touchpad?
You do but you have to move calmly or it will rush to the next icon.
Hey man, sorry to comment on a 3yo video but I just got a 2019 RC350 and I'm looking to do this to get wireless android auto. Did you notice any rattle noises after installing this? Either while just cruising or when turning up the volume? Also, did you notice any difference in sound quality after installing this head unit?
Do the steering wheel buttons fuction the same. And does it work with oem or the android mic when placing a phone call. Thanks great video.
The steering wheel functions exactly the same. The OEM navigation and all those features are built into the CD player so there was no loss of function removing the OEM screen. When placing a phone call, it depends on which system you are connected to, whether android or OEM screen. The bluetooth can be either or. The OEM mic and such works only for the OEM unit. Hopefully this answers the question.
will this work for a 2017 RC 350??? excellent video very informative and straight forward!!!!!!
Thanks. If your screen right now is not the 10.25 inch one, then it will work
Dude this is wild!!! Thanks for the video! I just purchased an RC350 two days ago… i hate the screen. I want to do this mod. Couple of concerns: (1) this is an android product.. i use an iPhone, will that still be okay to connect with? (2) is CarPlay available with this system? (3) what did you end up doing with the restart button and the USB that was dangling?
I have multiple videos on the channel you can watch for the thngs ive done with it. Its very capable. Yes it has carplay.
New screen baaaaybee
what it do baybeeeeeeeee
Hey brother the bottom bracket off of the OEM screen that comes off and then you can put it onto your new one so you can put screws in the bottom so it'll hold the new one up into your dash
The bracket is not transferable. The android computer is behind the screen which makes the bracket useless.
Amazing video , installation. I didn't get what you meant by reset button and usb? Can you explain plz?
Sure thing. So the reset button is it rebooting the system completely. So for example, if the screen freezes or something says is loading but you know its not. You click it and it reboots/restarts the android. The usb port labeled usb2 is the only connection for carplay. Usb1 will not link you to carplay.
Did u ever have any issues with oem nav screen not turning on after replacing the batterry? If so what did u do to fix.
Hi, thanks for the video! But just wanted to make sure if this same process works on a 17 IS350?
yeap same process.
Does this work for 2017 RFC and Does it have apple car play?
Hey man! Great video, thanks for sharing. I was just wondering how this is holding up? Any issues? Also, you don't need to disconnect the battery before attempting this?
No need to disconnect battery. Screen has been holding up since install.
@@thehuangbros Sweet, appreciate the response man! Definitely watching your videos from now on! Good luck on your future endeavors!
@@jappyisduhrandom thank you.
Whats up bro. Good video, with quality steps. I am hoping something similar if not exact solution could work in my 2017 Lexus IS 200T?
Nvm I just visited their product page and looks like they have solutions for many many cars. I love how you get to keep the original car system too. Dope
I think it is such an amazing part about this screen.
Berry, where did you get your stereo control knobs (2X) from? I don’t like my OEM ones that come with the RC F.
It will make the interior much nice and its a better feel. Go to ebay and type in Lexus RC control knob aluminum alloy. I cant provide a link oddly
Great video! I have a question though - we have a 2017 RC300h which does not have navigation. We bought the car two weeks ago and Lexus sold it to us as a navigation model, so they are fitting standard navigation in for us at their cost. Would installing standard navigation involve the same process of removing the centre console etc or is standard navigation simply a box that fits in the glove compartment? Just curious what Lexus will actually be doing to our car! Cheers!
Great question. So i do know and had experience with trying to hook one of the screens in this video to a non navi lexus IS200t. It did not work only because the wiring harness to the oem infotainment system which is the giant cd player that i said “its going to be weird but you just have to yank on it”. They would need to replace the wiring and the cd player unit/climate control unit as well.
@@thehuangbros Oh I see, I was afraid you'd say that! I'm going to take several pictures of my car before it goes in, I'm not convinced that they will be able to install it without problems 😒
@@andyburnett8012 nope. I dont see it happening either. Its either they install a beatsonic add on that gives you carplay or they would have to get you one of these screens with proper wiring
@@thehuangbros Well they have sorted it, navigation installed and all works perfectly
@@andyburnett8012 thats awesome, glad it worked out. They figured out the oem stuff?
Hey thanks for the vid! I wanted to place the order on the website alibaba but i tried putting quantity to only 1 but it says minimum of 2 only. Did you have the same issue ? Or know how to change it?
I just tried the site also. That is truly weird that it says minimum order 2. Try ordering a lexion screen. Ive heard great things about them and that the touchpad works with it no issues.
How has it been after having it installed for a few days? Worth it?
Also, the audio still comes through the car speakers right?
Its been really worth it. When I answer calls, i press the steering wheel answer button so it uses the oem mic/speakers. Once i start car, I plug in my phone while qlink app is active and it auto starts my carplay and been using waze a lot. TH-cam music on phone still works while waze is up. Waze app you can use the talk to text feature and my address will come up and i select it and boom, its good. Really loving that i can go back to factory screen also.
My screen just arrived, can't wait to get it installed?
I made this video the same day it arrived lol.
so how did the gps antenna function after driving? Does it work without issues hidden in the dash? also what was the final spot you placed your mic?
The final mic position i placed it next to the left temperature slide feature. Look for my video instrument bezel trim replacement. Or look up my 3 month review video of this screen. I show the final spot. Kinda hard to describe to you in words. I use waze on carplay more than the navi app the android screen came with so I wouldnt be able to tell you. Sorry
First question: I found same this screen but mentioned it’s for IS model, is it same size of RC ?
Second question: did you found solution for losing that screen ? Waiting your answers
Are there any nice aftermarket parts to replace the CD/Radio console area? I like this screen, but not sure if I should just rip out the entire mid section and get a giant screen (then remove the stock top screen). Thanks!
Unfortunately there isnt anything out currently. No company has invested.
I think I know the answer to this, but are there any after market parts that can make the screen closer to the driver? That's a big reach and I don't want to always have to use the controller
Does the oem trackpad work with the screen ??
Do the factory USB's work with this new screen or just the ones that come with the screen itself? Thanks in advance for your help!
Factory usb works with the oem side of the screen. The new usb works with the android side of the screen.
What Did you do to secure the top of the screen to keep it from falling down?
Its in my other video talking about the features. Remove the oem yellow tabs or blue tabs and transfer to new screen
First, thanks for the easy install video!
Second, I am having issues with the audio, and I didn't know if you could help: when I listen through the factory screen on bluetooth, it's fine. When I change the settings to AUX and go to the CarPlay, it sounds really bad and muffled and almost like the speakers were blown. Could this be a loose connection somewhere or maybe a bad fuse? I have never used the AUX prior to this, so I cannot tell if it were bad before. Just really want to figure it out because I love the new system, but not being able to listen to music or Waze properly ruins it.
Thanks again for the help!
Hi. Do you still have the aux insert that came with your unit? Try plugging that in. I set all of my aux settings on the android screen to the highest.
@@thehuangbros Yes, forgot to mention that. I plugged it in. I will try playing with the settings on the Android screen itself. I just did not see settings for the aux there. I will check again
@@thehuangbros Well, update: I tried everything to fix it, and now, I am removing the screen and putting the old one back. Not trying to be that person, but it's not worth $600-$700 for crappy sound quality. :/
@@dillondas2598 Are all of the pins inserted all the way without a bent? One of my pins were bent. Its just how I received it.
@@thehuangbros Yeah I checked. I saw you comment that to some others so I made sure to check. I may try to play around with it again tomorrow.
Hey I installed one myself, I was wondering if your trackpad works with CarPlay Becuase mine doesn’t, as well as if your CarPlay audio is staticky when using the screens auxiliary.
Hi Brandon. So there is a step that I missed in this installation. There is a small AUX plug in that they provide that you are suppose to plug into the oem AUX port, that should help relieve the staticky noise. As for the trackpad, it works but at a lesser degree. Its a little delayed and inaccurate but overall it works still. Is that what your trackpad is exhibiting as well or completely not working? if not working, I would check all the plugs do not have pinched pins.
Does the oem camera still works with that screen console and where did u get it from?
Yeap the screen still works with oem camera. If you saw the stuff behind the screen, that was the android unit. The wiring is piggybacking off of the oem wiring and only adds functions and doesnt take away. If you watch all the way til the end, i demonstrate the oem camera feature
Just installed this on my car but I'm having issues were there is no audio. Is there a specific connection I should focus on checking?
Any ideas help thank you!
Hi Jerry. If you are having issues with audio. Like no sounds at all, i highly recommend unplugging and checking the pins on the adapters. When i got mine, i noticed a pin was slightly bent but it can cause the biggest problem. Just ensure all the plugs are plugged correctly with pins straight. Hope that helps. Ill be here.
Do the buttons on the steering wheel still work with this? Like the volume on next song
Yeap they do. Just have to go to the carplay awaiting connection screen and go to setup and set it correctly to make the buttons useful.
Thanks for posting the vid, it helped me a lot on my install. Question though, when I fired up the system the car graphic on the right side is an IS not RC (i have a RC350), also the volume & track buttons on the steering wheel no longer works. But everything else works. Any suggestions?
Hi Ian, so I had the same icon issue too where it displayed a NX lol. Go to Automobile Settings then click automobile settings again. It'll ask for a PIN number. 217456. I hope this code works for your unit. Afterwards, scroll down to confirm it to save the icon change. If the code doesn't work, you may need a different code from Iric.
So for the volume and track button, that part would require you to pull your screen back, check all of the pins and ensure they are not bent, I found one slightly bent on mine. If that does not work, you may need to contact Iric Tan on WhatsApp.
Hope this helps.
Huang Bros thanks bro!
@@ianmonteyro3825 No problem. please let me know if that code worked for you.
@@thehuangbros so the code did not work, do you know of any other? Also how do you connect the unit to the internet so you can use Maps, TH-cam, etc. (sorry for all the questions)
@@ianmonteyro3825 oh no worries man. So there is a follow up video that shows how to connect to TH-cam and such. It is my video on all of the features. It should be a clickable link at the end of the video. I think you are going to need to contact Iric because all of the screens are different in their own way.
amazing tutorial bro thank you, just one thing can i have the link for this product?

Would this work for the RC350?
Do you think the Beatsonic Front Camera can be added? Is there an option for a 2nd camera on the settings besides back-up camera?
Many have asked but i haven’t seen a way to do it. But I hear the Lexion one possibly can
@@thehuangbros thanks! I’ll check it out.
Hey, my head unit is stuck on the lexus start up logo. I have tried many times to hard reset using the button with no luck. Do you have any advice. Thanks
I dont have any suggestions for this since Ive never dealt with it. I would suggest unplugging everything behind the screen and replug since it is easy access.
Do you know if the beat sonic front camera will work with it?
It does not. Someone has tried.
I have a base 2016 rc200t because I'm broke poor. Would I be able to do this upgrade?
Hahah. There are headunits for the RC200T also.
This would work in a RC350 F Sport right?
Hi, yes it will actually. This model is for RC models specifically so you would fit right in. You can also contact their customer service to check but I can tell you right now it will.
hey, quick one, I will try those steps on IS 300h, but wanted to quickly check should we not remove the negative terminal of battery so that the airbags are not deployed due to some issues?
If you do that, youre not going to be able to pit car in accessory mode to move shifter lever. Also you would have to be hit from the outside for it to pop unless you do something outside of my video to have that happen. There are her videos where they dont remove negative terminal. You can if you want but I dont see the purpose of it, itll hinder this procedure
@@thehuangbros Perfect, thank you so much :)
@@GauravBhandari85 no problem
Anyone in San Diego area know a shop where to get this installed?
How has this screen held up over the years? Any big issues to look out for?
So far so good. Still using it and im in Germany now still using it
Hi Huang, I am interested of buying for my RCF. Before I buy, I need know if it's reliable according to your experience.
Hi Trung. So far it has been 4 weeks and no issues that you may have read or heard. If there were issues, you can bet I would make a post to follow on this video as I would not want others to experience that hardship.
So far is has been no issues other than the common issue of having to press steering wheel next button twice to place next song.
Got the unit installed, but I can not get the volume to work on any of the Android sides navigation apps. Does it need to be in AUX mode on the OEM side?
Aux mode yes
Thanks, so that's telling me there is something wrong with my system. It's intermittent each time, it works sometimes and if I turn the car off and come back it does not work.
@@mylexrcfupgrades1222 are you doing it through bluetooth or connected through usb2 port?
271456 is the screen reset code to access the function to change the display vehicle and other features.
Crossing my fingers I can still get the 200t model for under 30 during tax time🙏🏽😂 the radio was my onlyyy down about that car.
I tried to install this screen on a IS200T before, just make sure you get the navi option IS200T for the one I have in link. But if you dont get the Navi option IS200T, you can order this screen for the non navi lexus also, just gotta contact the seller.
Hey Barry, was there a reason that you didn't connect the GPS antenna?
Hi Manabu, did I not connect it? I connected the round black module that has the gold ending. At 11:48, it is connected or is that not it? Please let me know.
Well, I stand corrected. I never saw you do it!
I ordered the Infotainment screen, and I'm missing the Car? Does the car come a little later in shipping?
🤣🤣🤣 you must of missed out on their new years sale with car then haha
Hi, i have the same screen installed i just don't know how to switch my audio output on the android screen. I get the prompt which says that in order to heard the audio, i need to switch the output. Any tips would be great!
Thanks!
Go to factory screen and set source to aux. then connect bluetooth to oem
@@thehuangbros thanks 🙏🏻
After having this installed for a while, do you still reccomend
upgrading?
This thing works great for me. I just upgraded it to do more than what I expected from it. Video dropping this weekend after I edit it
Did you really order yours from the Alibaba site? Never have used it before.
Yeap. I did. I actually had to update it this morning. The previous site oddly made it 2 orders minimum. I got my screen part of a group buy using the YZG company.
Hi can you please tell us where you got this unit from.As I have recently purchase upgrade for my Lexus NX snd they supply completely wrong harness which creates compatibility problem Thx
Link to the product is in description. If you look around on that site, you will see the one for nx
@@thehuangbros Hi my radio has the same connection as RCF unfortunately DVDgpsnav send wrong wire wit external aux audio connection.I' am stuck my car its in a pieces I cant do anything without it.There is any chance to purchase t-cable from somewhere? These guys 're useless and don't wont to know anything.Can you help please?.
@@robertdawidczyk208 ive asked for a cable also from a separate company and they also wont send
Where you get that screen from?
Do you know if they sell this product for the GS line ?
They do. If you go to the link i have in description just type in lexus gs android screen
So the product in alibaba is same one from lexion?
No. Lexion products are only thru lexion website.
So stupid question, has anyone gotten Netflix to play on these headunits? I have tried doing the apk file thing and nada. Huang, have you got it to work for any video apps like Netflix, Disney Plus, Hulu?
First thing you need to do is have a constant wifi source connected. Without that, its not happening
Can the screen fit on other models such as the IS250?
It is compatible. You would just need to contact the seller and specify that it is a IS250 and not a RCXXX or RCF so that they can send you the unit with the proper vehicle displayed
Do you know if this is compatible with a 2018 IS300?
There are compatible models. Not this one
How’s this holding up a year later? 1k is a lot for a 2017 car that should’ve come with this standard. Lexion appears to be one of two manufacturers for this and I want to know it’s worth it before I pull the trigger!
If you search the channel, I have a 1 year experience video. I would go lexion if I did it again.
How has this head unit held up 2 years later? Still works good or any complaints?
Phenomenal! It has been nothing but great. Added some apps on it and used as a diagnostic scanner for my own car
Hey bro, doing this install now.. almost done but the new screen doesn’t fit. There’s these plastic pieces that are obstructing the back metal panel from the screen to click in. Have you heard of this problem?
Is it the 4 plastic clips that gets inserted on the 4 corners?
Where do I get one? How much is it?
I just want to plug one cable in my lexus is 2016 and get apple carplay???
That is possible but not with this android screen. You would need beatsonic but even that is invasive like what you see in this video taking it apart.
Just finished installing my 10.25 android wireless CarPlay unit, everything went smoothly and everything is plugged in. I am getting absolutely no audio what so ever from the unit itself. I am only getting audio from the OEM Lexus interface which I can’t even see actually, when I click on CAR, it brings me to a no signal page when I am supposed to be seeing my OEM Setup screen. Any help?
Did you follow my steps in the video or just went straight to putting everything back in without turning the screen on mid way? Either or, I highly suggest checking the pins on the adapters behind the screen first to ensure it is not bent. If no damage found, i suggest checking the back of the oem navigation computer which is the cd player unit you pull out to attach the piggyback wiring
@@thehuangbros followed all your steps, I actually got the updated unit, the one with wireless CarPlay. From the same vendor tho. The weird thing is the screen recognizes when I turn the volume up and down with the knob on the CD player but when I connect my phone to the CarPlay unit it self, no audio at all. I will definitely check all the pins.
@@TheMadIsRealXXR ensure it is on aux and on bluetooth to the oem lexus side and not bluetooth to the android screen
So how this unit holding up? Any issue with it so far?
Hi Boonthai, the screen has been great. I recently traveled across US with it and no issues, im always on CarPlay, never back to oem factory screen. However, im still trying to find a touchpad trackpad.
Please where can i buy the screen and can I install it in IS
Link in the description and you can install this into a 3rd gen IS if screen is not the 10.25in one from factory
Will this do Apple CarPlay for my GS 350?
Hi Rodney, there are android screens for a GS350 in the link I provided but you have to search for it. All the features you see in this and my other video would be in the GS screen as well.
I'm not receiving audio when I use Apple Carplay
