Hi Everyone!
I am the owner of the Camry Hybrid 2007 which has a full-time audio system JBL changer of 6 discs, I want to replace the android with multimedia.
I ordered multimedia android for Camry 2007 but the connection adapter is not suitable for connecting to standard plugs(adapters)
But I can not find any adapters for standard plugs (adapter) to connect the multimedia screen to the plugs.
The seller did not warn me that the connections may not work!
Before buying, I read the comments of buyers, everyone was happy with the purchase, it is easy to connect and connect.

Can anyone come across such a problem? How did you solve the connection problem?

Or can you tell me how to connect multimedia? Where to find the adapter for the android plug?

I'm having some trouble with this as well, seems the wiring diagram for these is incredibly elusive.

Basically I have power. In fact everything works aside from the radio antenna (is the blue one FM and the big white one AM? I read somewhere they split them) and the speakers. I did get a canbus adapter, and from what I can see, the FL and FR wires are connected to the factory harness properly, but still no sound. I also read of a 'bypass' harness but I dont see anything like that on mine, or at least nothing this canbus harness plugs into.

What would be the method of connecting to the JBL amplifier, if its signal isn't a direct connection to the headunit? I find it difficult to believe it would be a digital signal.. but maybe I'm underestimating Toyota. Additionally, are the rear speakers and "subwoofers" run via the amp as well? I also see a couple single-wire plugs (specifically an orange one that doesn't connect to the radio at all, but pops out of the antenna harness, and then there's a square purple one with a square plug inside, I imagine this is the stock USB?), and some harnesses that I don't have plugs for.

Basically I'd like this to be as straightforward was possible. There is someone selling a reasonably priced aftermarket 5-channel amp on my facebook marketplace, but 5 channels isn't really enough considering we have 4 door speakers, 2 tweeters and two "subwoofers" (are these actual subs? or are they just 6x9s on a low pass?) Finding literally anything about this JBL system is proving to be a real pain.

You can search this forum. Most guys just install an aftermarket amplifier also. And I don't think the rear speakers are subs. they share the same connection with the mounted tweeters. There's no actual filtering in the amplifier. I would have changed mine too. But I didn't want to lose the hybrid energy monitor. If you're changing the head unit, it may be better/easier to install an aftermarket amplifier too. At least, we're lucky in the this generation camry. The 2015+ ones are total crap and can't be modified.

Rears are not subs. They are dual coil drivers, midrange+twitter combo. This is how those cars count multiple speakers, because they count rear shelf drivers as 2 per side. This been discussed and clarified here before to no doubt. No one in sane mind will put two subwoofers onto a Camry from the factory. Highlanders have dedicated sub in the tailgate.
