Lexus GS 2013+ :: Disable Bluetooth Connection Successful Notification?

Every time I get in my car I get a drop down notification that the blue tooth connection was successful. The problem is, this drop down notification blocks a portion of my view for my backup camera. Is there any way to disable this annoying notification?

Lexus GS 2013+ :: Start Up Messages Taking Top 20% Of Backup Camera Screen

The start up messages take way too long to clear, during which time they obscure the top section of the backup camera? I first get "phone connection successful..." followed by "transfer complete". Between the two messages, the top 15-20% of the backup camera screen is obscured. And it's really that top sliver of the screen that allows you to see more than 4 feet behind the car. I suppose I should just be more patient, but 10 seconds (I've timed it) is an eternity to wait after starting the car before you can start backing out.

So I just back out as if I don't have a camera using my mirrors and looking over my shoulder (which I did for my previous 30 years of driving before getting my GS so I guess it's not THAT big of a deal). I just find it really annoying to put a backup camera in the car and then obscure it with messages. It's interesting that Lexus feels it's important to tell me that my phone has been connected for a full 10 seconds. It would be more interesting to know if I was about to back up into something.

Camry 2012+ :: Adding Backup Camera To LE?

Is it possible to add a backup camera to a 2012 Camry LE and have it display on the display screen? I have read that many people have added backup cameras to their SEs or XLEs with navigation systems but I wasn't sure if it was possible on a basic LE with no nav. If it is possible to add a backup camera to an LE, which brands will work and where can you typically get them installed?

Camry 2012+ :: Backup Camera Don't Work When Car Is In Reverse

I have a 2012 camry hybrid that had the stock push button radio and I wanted to add a backup camera. So I picked up a 2013 camry entune display head unit to replace the stock one without a display.

The backup camera does not work when the car is in reverse and I see that the mpg and other data does not update on the radio display, although all of the same data is displayed on the instrument cluster.

Camry :: Mounting Backup Camera On LE?

My new head unit supports a backup camera, and wiring it in is no challenge.

What IS challenging me is where to mount the bugger, and where to pass the wire through to the trunk front the outside.

I dropped the trunk lid liner and did not see any grommets or pass-through spots for the cables. Do I need to drill a hole and silicone it, or is there something I am missing? If I have to drill, I guess I can do it under the chrome trim piece that holds the trunk lock keyway.

Camry :: Backup Camera Installation On 2005 LE

I just bought a 2 din DVD HU and will install a backup camera with it for my 2005 Camry LE.

A few questions:

1) what's the best way to run video cable from HU to trunk? Through side panel then under door molding or through center storage console then under the carpet?

2) what method do you recommend to tap into backup light for +12V to power the camera? Is there a breakout wire harness that I can buy, or splice the wire (then solder them together) or use a wire tap connector (never used these before, are they reliable and do they hold together a couple years)?

Camry :: 2011 - How To Install Wired Backup Camera

I have a 2011 Camry, and I would like to install a wired backup camera. What's the best way of running it from the license plate area to the center dash?

I would like to replace the original radio with a new radio that has a built-in display, so ideally the camera cable would end up somewhere behind the radio. And I would like the cable to not be visible, if possible.

This is the item I'm considering buying: [URL] ....

Camry :: Can Use Toyota Backup Camera System In 2010 LE?

My wife has a 2010 camry le, and I am interested in possibly getting a higher end backup camera that works with a rear view mirror (the car does not have a nav screen).

I hear some of these cameras are infrared as well? It would be cool if I could use a Toyota system (OEM). A mirror like this would be perfect:

All other apps such as vehicle finder, charger management work well.

Camry 2012+ :: Connection Error When IPod Plugged In

I recently got a 2014 Camry SE and have started to experience problems with the USB port in the center.

I generally plug in my 5th gen iPod to listen to audio, but I've started to get an connection error. The message reads Connection error. Please consult your Owner's Manual for instruction on how to connect the USB device." (see image link below)

Sometimes the iPod will connect, but most times it won't. If it does connect, the error will appear when I hit a big bump or pot hole, leading me to believe there might be a connection or soldering failure somewhere.

I can confirm that it's not the iPod's problem, my cell phone, tablet, or any other device plugged in will not get a power signal either. The iPod will connect via Bluetooth, but that is not optimal as I'd rather have my phone connected for hands-free calling.

If not, how easy is it to open up the console to get at the connection to check/fix it myself?

Passat (B7) :: Turning Off Bluetooth Media Connection But Not Phone?

Just bought a Certified 2012 2.5 SE about a week and a half ago but I have a question. I've connected my iPhone through the system just fine, but the system automatically added it as a bluetooth media device as well.

The problem is, It automatically starts trying to play music no matter what I'm listening to (usually SiriusXM)... In order to save battery, this pretty much forces me to either;

1) remove the phone from my pocket and turn off the player each time I get in or connect it to the charger cord.
2) Go through the menu and disable to media portion on the MFI.

Trouble is, either method seems to be a temporary turn-off.

My question is this... Is there any way to permanently disable JUST the media portion of the bluetooth connection without disabling the phone part?

Camry 2012+ :: IPhone 5 Not Streaming Pandora Using Bluetooth Connection

I started using the Bluetooth connection to stream pandora over using entune lately because entune seems to take forever to start up and I just start pandora with Siri and turn to the Bluetooth input on my head unit. This worked good for a few weeks and now all the sudden it doesn't have sound.. The screen shows what song is playing and I can use my steering wheel controls to skip songs and it shows the progress bar of the song duration progressing but no sound? I have not tried it thru the entune app since this started happening so I am not sure if it works that way recently(I'm usually drivig and don't want to fumble around turning on hotspot to connect to entune).

Camry 2012+ :: 2015 XLE Hybrid And IPhone 6 Plus - Voice Activated System To SEND Text Messages

I just upgraded my 2010 Camry XLE to the 2015 XLE Hybrid this weekend. Couple of issues... How to get the voice activated system to SEND text messages? I can receive and view them through the car display, but can't get them to respond. I get through all the prompts and then upon sending it stops and says it's not supported.

Second, what I need to get for my iPhone 6 Plus in order to use the built in Qi wireless charger that came with my car? Also, where can I get whatever it is I need to attach to my phone?
