Ti-84 plus operating systems
« on: May 18, 2011, 03:08:37 pm »
Hi everybody,

I just noticed the download links to different OSes of the ti-84 plus
I am using Os 2.22, but I found 2.43 and 2.55. So i want to know: has enybody ever tried these OSes, and what are the new features? And how's the compatibility for asm programs?

2.43 is great. Use it!

There's also 2.53MP and 2.55MP, but they're bad.
OS 3.0 is for the Nspire, not the 84+.

No, sorry, I looked in the different category, but there is 2.55
I have also edited my first post

so you said 2.43 is good? What features does it have that aren't in the 2.22?

It's more stable.  For the MP OSes, they're slightly better for math, but it slow and glitchy.  ;)

There aren't any groundbreaking features, but it has minor new stuff that's good, and improved stability. It also supports PTT, but that's not really a feature...

2.53MP and 2.55MP? Well, they support MathPrint, which makes stuff look more like what they are like in math books, instead of just linear rows of numbers. You also get improved fraction support, and other minor functions.

Ben_g: Use 2.43. Thats by far the best one with the biggest compatibility.

2.43 is the best OS. If you want something really good for maths and operations, download App4Math ( App ).

OK, I've downloaded 2.43. I'll install as soon as i got TI-connect to work

EDIT: it looks like the TI-OS downloader is even slower than ti-connect

TI-Connect is probably just trying to screw with you a bit. It happens all the time.

yea, but not like this. to me, this always happens:
TI-connect can't find the divice
OR: ti-divice detected, but couldn't get status
But now, it connects as it should, and when I send something to it, it starts the transfer, interrupts the transfer and says 'ti-device detected, but couldn't get status'. I never had this with my previous OS

EDIT: now it says 'transfer failed, a retry may be succesfull', but a retry isn't sucessfull, nor a 10th retry...
