Lexus. So it will switch to Lexus OS but I can’t choose any functions on the screen. The moving map works but touchscreen doesn’t work, trackpad doesn’t work and I can’t access any stock Lexus functions.

Also, audio quality is seriously gutted through this system. I have a JL 12 hooked up and it was sounding fine before. Now after install it barely makes a sound.

I’m not real happy so far…

Have you tried holding down the Menu button? That is how it goes back and forth from Lexus to Lexion.
I have no idea why it is stuck on the navigation screen or your sound is bad. I have neither of these issues.
I have Lexus navigation and though I rarely use it, it does work fine. My sound is fine as well.

Try holding down the power **** to do a soft reset or do a hard reset/reboot if that doesn’t work. That issue hasn’t come up for me, but either way, I hope my suggestion helps.

Resetting didn't work...

So the audio issue seems to be that my aftermarket sub won't turn on now after install. It is wired (speaker level inputs and remote turn on) to the factory amp. Does this system bypass the amp?

Also, made a bit of headway with the Lexus OS freezing on the nav screen. If I unplug the jog mouse connector from thee Lexion harness, and plug it back into the stock harness, I can use the Lexus OS perfectly. When I plug it back in I cannot access it at all. I am wondering if the harness is bad...

I am thinking maybe there is an issue with the harness. I unplugged he unit and went back to stock, my subwoofer worked again and there were no issues. I plugged the Lexion unit back in, cannot access Lexus OS, the jog mouse doesn't work outside of the Lexion OS, and my subwoofer doesn't work.

BTW, touchscreen is not supposed to work for OEM menu only for Android system. But you still have issue with joystick not working in OEM.

With the latest firmware, Carplay connects a lot faster right after booting into the system!

You can update firmware to Android or Zlink?

the firmware upgrade package (April 2021) includes a newer version of the Zlink app.

Is wireless carplay built into the unit or via USB dongle?

How many USB inputs does this unit have? 1 or 2?

Also is there a backup camera trigger accessory wire? I know This unit works with OEM backup camera, but that's not why I am asking. I have a front bumper camera as well connected to a switch (beatsonic front/rear cam interface) and want to be sure it has the rear camera trigger wire that I will need to tap into.

It does have reverse trigger wire. Another member in RC forum did the same for front camera with beatsonic switch, I believe it's brown lose wire on the harness. I bought Lexion about two weeks ago still has not shipped.
