Hello anglers! Finally I got this issues explained by my local Humminbird dealer. (greetings to Mr. Silvio 8))
Some of this models (helix 5 di gps g2) have faulty memory chip!
This can be confirmed as device with faulty memory chip does not save newly created navigation points, besides that is unable to update software.

New memory chip cannot be bought separately, even if found, still EEPROM needs to be written and that can be done in the factory only.

Humminbird offers 20% discount if i want to buy a new device but i need to bring em this faulty device along with transducer. I believe i can sell this device more than that but anyways...

To summarize, nothing is solved and cannot be done in this case but i hope this story helps someone with the Helix 5 update problem.

Greetings from Croatia!

Let's be consistent and not jump to conclusions after the dealer's words.
Navigation data in which mode is not saved? Demo or connected sensor mode?
The device is faulty, but this does not mean you have to pay the dealer for a new device and get a 20% discount.
You can contact the factory directly and get a good discount on repairs.
