Just installed Carlink on my 2013
Quick question, setup was pretty straight forward. Only two issues, joystick is wonky and ended up with an extra cable, not sure if this is related to the joy stick or something else but everything seems to be working ok. Any thoughts?
Also, how would you update to the latest firmware? USB sd card or can it be done wirelessly?
Thank you!

Thanks for confirming. As long as I’m careful with going right it works pretty good. I see the steering wheel volume works but not the skip. Is that a setting with the switches? I have now number 2 and 5 on.
I’ve noticed using the up and down arrows helps as well va the joy stick. Any way to get the menu and map to work as left and eight? The joy stick can be used to click down to enter? Saw a setting in the setup for this but referenced the back button, which my model doesn’t have.

OK, I'm an android user, Samsung specifically. I've watched this thread off and on for some time. Is there ANYTHING that works like it was built-in with all the features you expect and need, like track mouse and steering wheel controls but still able to use the screen for factory features?
My gut says both of the main options, Beatsonic or Vline, all have quirks that I am unwilling to put up with for the price paid. Especially when I see the issues you guys have with buttons, rebooting, etc.

Can someone recommend an installer for Carlinkit in the Orange County, CA area? How much should an install like this cost?
Also, can someone confirm this is the correct box to install AA?

Would anyone know if there's a setting for this interface issue? When selecting to go into reverse, the system will switch over to the Lexus interface and show the backup camera on the screen, When I come out of reverse, the system remains in the Lexus interface until I manually select to switch over to Carlinkit. Is there a way to have Carlinkit automatically switch over once I come out of reverse?

Try this in Settings
Change "Reverse match original" to "default"
Change "Reverse full screen" to "On"

I remember having the same issue as you did when I was playing around with the settings.. maybe try resetting all the settings to default and see if that fixes it

I have the interface from Road Top installed for months in my Lexus CT (2015 model year) but today I noticed something very concerning. When switching to the new interface, the passenger airbag light goes off.
When restarting the car, the car immediately switches to the new interface and the general airbag warning light stays on.
I never expected this to have an influence on the safety systems of the car.
Has anyone else experienced this issue?
