If you haven't figured out the AC thing, in the protocol settings under factory settings you'll find the A/C flash screen. You can disable that and also Enable the floating AC Icon. Those are the only two AC options there. The way it would work is that when you push the buttons, the AC would work as intended, but nothing will change on the screen. IF you want to set the temp or anything specifically, you can use the floating button which I have on my lower right corner. So far so good. May not be idea for some, but I find this pop-up annoying, and there's no way to stop them as the buttons are sensitively cheap. head unit works great and great audio. The only issue is some intermitency with Carplay and Android Auto, more on the Carplay side. But when it does work, it works fine. I'm fine tuning the settings as I go to get rid of the non-essentials as I only use it for music and nav.
@mexag720 Жыл бұрын
So I googled it which is what I should have done in the biginning and yes I did leave the floating button for when I need a certain temp. Aside from that I'm ok with AA, I've found my work around with it and if anything I'll just connect it via USB. There is car link too which is like 25 bucks I think. It's supposed to be smooth, better than zlink.

You don't need the floating icon for AC, is very ugly, you just have to download and set your car specifications from factory setting/canbus/Toyota/lexus is (high or low version) .. etc. then you have to close the pop up AC display but then you have to put the AC from car setting only, but it wouldn't pop up in your face while you'r driving again.
