does the system require an 8gb sd card or just anyone that size or larger. downloaded, extracted, move to 64gb sd card. will try updated later on my z150bh.

Not sure what the SD card size limit, but I would assume 32gb.

Won't hurt to try the 64gb.

Just used a 64gb micro sd in the full size sd card adapter and it worked perfectly!

Hey I have not done this yet as a few things have come up. I will be installing the new maps soon and then send you a donation. I drive over the road for a living and time gets away from me when I get to go home.

Ok finally had time to use this.. All updated fine but my maps are still way off!!! I mean it puts me in a feild all the time and never tracks me on the road. I tried to do a manual adjust on location but does not work.. What can I do?

 

         Donation sent too.

Have you tried pulling the battery? Or doing a hard reset/factory reset? I am not the most familiar with these things. However, I am not getting these errors.

If I factory restart won't it erase the new maps I installed? I think the GPS antenna is either not hooked up or just laying behind the dash.

It wont delete the maps, just clear all the user preferences

Can confirm the update files work with X950BH. All I did was:

 

1. Download file and extract to an 8 Gb. microsd which was formatted FAT32

2. Insert the microsd into the head unit.

3. Turn on vehicle. Blank screen for a few seconds and then it updated about 79 files.

4. System rebooted, then prompted that the update would take 45 minutes. Chose OK.

5. Progress bar proceeded for 45 minutes, then said it would reboot.

6. Rebooted and updated a couple of more files.

7. One more reboot and everything working perfectly.

 

Donation sent, thanks.

Does anyone have any idea- or know for sure- whether this can be modified to work with older Z-series models by swapping the appropriate file(s)?  [RonS or pionara?]

 

Thank you SO much!

I won't say it's impossible but it is extremely unlikely. Only the maps would possibly be useful since the 50 series units use a different CPU. Certainly way beyond my skill level. And not worth the effort for someone who is that skilled. After all, the 2015 update isn't that old. Better to wait for the next map update for our units.

OK, got ya- understood...  Thank you so much for the perfect explanation!!

(Actually the map is the part I'm most interested in because there are a lot of fairly new roads & neighborhoods in my zone of travel.  I guess I'll just be waiting a while longer, or if it bothers me enough and I do well at work over the holidays, I'll just buy it myself...)
