Hi I have a 2011 Toyota Tundra with a Android 12. The screen is so bright at night I have had to tape a mouse pad over it so I can drive. Is there a way to get into a Dark mode or turn off all graphics?

Hello @Mike Justis,
Please let us know if you have set auto mode.
If not, here is the instruction.
Go to Car > Factory Settings > Enter 126 > Other > Panel LED control > By head light. Then apply and exit.
1）When headlights are on, it will automatically switch to nighttime mode.
2）When headlights are off, it will automatically switch to daytime mode.
If you did but still not satisfy, we are wondering if you could find the Night screen Application on your head unit's Google play store.

It does this but is still so bright it lights up the entire can of the truck and makes driving difficult.
@Mike Justis
I sincerely apologize. Our factory explained that this brightness level was adjusted to a balanced setting that meets the needs of most customers.
If you are not satisfied with it, you can either turn off the screen while driving or use the timeout setting.
To turn off the screen manually, you may need to set up a shortcut first. Please go to Factory settings > Key study and assign the "Turn Off Screen" function to a touch key. You can then long-press that key to turn off the screen while driving.
Alternatively, you can use the automatic timeout feature. The path is: Settings > Display > Audio Screen Timeout.
