If anyone had something like this for a 3rd gen RX, I would be tripping over myself.

So I got curious and I decided to test out Android Auto
I ordered these lightning to micro-USB adapters and plugged one into my lightning cable...and then plugged the micro-USB end to one of my old Android phones (Nexus 5)
And I must say...the Android Auto interface looks pretty ugly compared to Apple CarPlay 😅😅😅

Can anyone help me what needs to be done. Black screen Android box interface on AUX Source. But if I use hangup button on steering wheel it switches to Android interface. What should I do to make AUX work and car boots directly to Android box Source

Has anyone had same issue and how to resolve this ?

So I’ve got the aux plug plugged in, aux set to external and yet the call quality is terrible. Since I disconnected the bt connection from the Lexus to the phone, I had to move a call from carplay to speakerphone because the caller couldn’t here me and said they could hear their own echo. It’s a nice device otherwise (though the sound for music is all kinds of messed up on ios13 currently) but for phone calls, it’s unacceptably bad for me.

Hi, I just record a simple video to show how to fix 2 problems mostly appear recently.
1. The cursor disappear
2. press the autoplay and it said autoplay does not set.
The answer is in the video:
And for more setting and connect on wireless carplay, please take a look at here:

I’ve given up on this. I had to add Lexus bt back and when I need to make a call, I click Lexus bt on the phone instead of the box because the call quality via the box is so bad on mine that it’s basically useless. Cosmo????

It's strange, I never have any problem to make call through the box. My phone is connected to the box through the wireless carplay.

Voice wheel button
Hello,
I can't find the answer for this question directly, so please explain me. If i am in main carplay menu and switch voice button on the wheel, will bring Siri in listening mode or need make it manually by car's mouse.
Second question is when I have Google maps opening (focus on google maps) can I switch on Microphone by voice button on wheel and start giving orders to Google Maps?
Thank you for feedback

so I found out today i can switch to android/carplay interface form lexus factory by pressing map button twice. this is better than aux select or hold down hand up for 3 seconds. not if this was an advertised feature.

here is my experiecne
1. pressing the mic button on the wheel even in carplay menu will activate lexus factory voice command. i can only activate siri from remote mouse clicking and holding on home icon.
2. i use the Mic icon inside google map to give instruction to google map for destination add or search all the time and it work great but i can't use siri with it.
