Mike5, Were you able to get your steering wheel controls working on the 2013? What factory unit did you start with?

So I have the volume and back/next and call hangup working. Mode switches between sources and the factory voice command button mutes.

Factory unit was the NAV.

Under Extra Settings, Model Choose I have Raise / Toyota / 10-14 Prado / Public. I haven’t messed around with others for a better match. When I got this to work the back/next buttons were backwards. I think it’s called Swap steering past and next key that you gotta turn on which fixes it.

Anyway this is where I’ve stopped.

What’s your setup?

Mike5,

I have a 2011 SR5 with the base radio (no touchscreen, nav, JBL, etc). I tried the T8 but they didn’t have the correct adapters for my vehicle so I ended up returning it. I see that CTH seems to have a T9 config for my vehicle, but it’s android 8 and I haven’t seen recent reviews with that. Rhino is claiming to have android 10 on theirs now. I reached out to them, but haven’t heard back yet.

Honestly I'm not sure how much the OS matters.

For the few Android Auto users out there... For anyone like me who has been using a third party dongle for Android Auto on their T9, I'm happy to report that you don't need the dongle. Kinda feel dumb that I didn't know this app was out there, but install Headunit Reloaded. It works really well. I haven't been able to get Android Auto to consistently work wirelessly yet, but connecting using the usb works flawlessly. Plus, and this is a big plus, Headunit Reloaded (aka HUR) also lets you adjust the resolution a lot higher for AA. I set it to 1920x1080 and it updates the page layout which makes Android Auto look so much better. See my pic below:

I don’t have Facebook. Any YouTube videos of other places to get the details?

How do you get the home screen to look like this? I just installed mine and it looks nothing like this...

Installed mine, so far so good. I recommend anyone interested in the T9 to go to the Facebook group first, it lists a lot of items you will have questions about later.

Since I'm not on Facebook, can someone ask there (or tell me if they know) how the CarPlay notification volume can be adjusted separately than system volume? I can't seem to find a way. Or is this something everyone deals with?

Any news on the new gen? I'm assuming it will be called T10.

On your iphone ... Go to Settings > Sounds & Haptics. Verify that "Change with Buttons" is on. Then, when using Maps in your car, use the volume buttons on your phone to adjust the sound volume.

Or just change the volume on the head unit while Siri is talking, you're on the phone, or music is playing.

Three different volumes:
- Siri
- Phone Calls
- Music

Each can be adjusted independently but only while actively using that method. If nothing is active then it's the Music volume that is adjusted.

What is the consensus between the T9 and Dasaita these days? Best to wait on the T10?

New to me 2018 TRD ORP in my driveway and I've never been so underwhelmed by a factory headunit. Coming from an Alpine Carplay unit in my 4th gen it feels like a huge downgrade.

The bezel kits for a standard double din Carplay rig are hideous. These look like the only real options.
