    I had these same problems over the weekend with 2 new Solix units a new boat I took delivery of a few weeks ago. No where on Humminbird's site is the indication that they can not use a card larger than 32 GB. From what I was able to find (via this site and others) their products only support the FAT 32 format, thus limiting their card support to 32 GB.

    Including the word "maximum" in their instructions would be helpful.

    Also, I could not find any past update versions archived and the description for 3.640 clearly states 3.50 needs to be installed prior.

    In the end I used the fish smart app and connected it to the units, the app auto loaded an indication that the units had an update pending, 3.50. After loading 3.50 through the app, I was able to load 3.640 through a card. The app did not show the 3.640 update as of yet.

    You can use any card size you want. You simply have to reformat it as fat32.

    I had trouble with the update using a 32 GB card and used the Fishsmart app instead.

    Do not need to, it is included in the download zip file if you down load what is on the HB site now. Second on the list of files.

    Have that all transffered to an 8GB SD card , but my solix 15 does nothing when inserted , like it does not even notice a card has been inserted ?

    I have never updated , still have 3.110 . Do you think I need to get a 32GB sd card ?

    The 3.640 ZIP file is less that 2GB so you have plenty of memory space with a 8GB.
    What file/s do you have on your memory card?

    You have to install 3.500 first. After that is finished, install 3.640.

    Did you read the instructions for the software download?

    I tried the whole unzipped file first , then re-formated the sd card and now only have the 3.500 file on the card , and still nothing , wondering if I have enough internal storage left on the Solix , last time on lake it did say maximum track length reached ? Think I should delete some of these and try again ?

    I found myself needing the 3.500 update on Solix 12 G2s after picking up my new boat when I came across this thread. Taking the advice of formatting a 64 gig card to the FAT32 format I downloaded the 3.640 update. As Wayne stated, the second file is the 3.500 update after extracting all the zippered files. I put it alone on the card for each of my units and it worked like a champ. Went back afterwards with all the files included in the 3.640 update and was successful with that on both units as well. Once again, Wayne has saved me a lot of headache. Thanks as always

    I don't understand all this need for downloading a separate V3.5 file... It is included in the 3.640 zip file. If you do the standard update process and download the update fiile, it has everything... Including the 3.5 version.
