Anybody ever lost trails on their Lowrance?

Last time I went out fishing, my Lowrance unit just went into demo mode by itself. I turned it off and back on and all of my trails were gone. Anybody ever have this problem? I went through the menu and don’t see anything that jumps out to me to restore. The only thing I saw was to load trails from a memory card and they weren’t saved on my memory card. I had about a years worth of tracks, so it sucks they are all gone.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

I think you can back it up to your phone somehow. The phone connection on my Elite seems kinda silly though. Should it be bluetooth or wifi? It seems like it wants to connect on wifi. This doesn't seem to be ideal for getting texts and calls though.

I have a Hook 9, so mine doesn’t Bluetooth to my phone.

Mine use to do it all the time. I would have trails that would drop out in the middle, start and end sometimes. I bought a new unit.

Went out yesterday and every track in my HDS7 was gone. Didn't record a new one the whole day, either. Freaking sucks.

Mine Elite ti did this a few weeks ago. Every damn snail trial gone pecan

Check the color of the trails. They may be a color that blends in with the background.

This could be software issue. Sounds like the show trails may have been "unchecked" somehow. Go into your settings and poke around.

Yeah, when I get back to the boat I'm gonna have to go check into it. I believe you hit the "pages" button, go to "waypoints", and then select "trails". From there should be able to check or uncheck to show trails.
ETA: There's no way I accidentally went into that menu and unselected a year's worth of old trails...not sure how it decided to do it on its own

Do you automatically update? 20.0.1 came out yesterday. My two Carbons did some odd shite before doing a soft reset after update.

I haven't a clue. Guess I should check on that

Need to back that up.
I like to take my trails and separate them into locations. Depending on where I'm at I can turn them off and on. Eventually too many trails on some of the not so powerful units can start slowing it down.

My boat is in a separate garage that is just close enough to my house to reach my wifi. Keeps me from having to download to a card. I lose those things all the time.

Do people connect to their elite through bluetooth or wifi? Seems like it wants me to connect via wifi
Posted on 9/10/20 at 10:53 am to LEASTBAY
Depends on what you're connecting to.

Android phone to elite ti2. Connects easily through wifi but not bluetooth. Does it serve the same purpose? My texts etc don't come through when I'm connected via wifi

Ah, I have never tried with phone. It's not something that comes up for me.
