New Nspire OS 2.1.1
« on: May 02, 2011, 11:25:34 am »
TI has just released the new 2.1.1 Nspire OS.


It's very similar to the 2.1.0 OS, but Ndless isn't compatible yet (although it seems it could be ported to that OS).

It includes the 1.4 boot2 and so is no more protected that the 2.1.0 OS.
It also means that unlike the 3.0.1 OS, installing it should not brick your calculator this time.


The 3.0 boot2 does reject the 2.1.1 OS. So you can't be saved (downgrade from the buggy/faulty/dangerous/evil 3.0 OS) by installing the 2.1.1 OS.


Well quite an uninteresting OS.

I really can't understand why TI felt the urge to release that now...

Wtf... a totally useless OS...

They just added some things in the PTT menu in order to be compliant with some more exams.

Don't they have more important things to work on currently?...

Wow this is so weird. I wonder why they didn't fix 3.0.x instead? Maybe they thought they would lack the time to do so before exams and decided to release a fixed version of 2.1.0?

By the way, does Nleash works with 2.1.1?

According to my tests it *could* work.

It doesn't work for now, as the code is checking the version string, and is rebooting if it's not a supported version.
Currently, only 2 OSes are supported by Nleash: 2.1.0 and I forgot the other one... probably either 2.0.0, either 1.7.

Ah ok. Well I hope it's not too hard. I'M not sure how busy ExtendeD is right now and if anyone else is working on Ndless for now.

Haha this would be funny if they started to claim OS 3.0 never happened. ;D

However, I wonder if they didn't actually remove it in response to us discovering about Lua? O.O

Is there any Lua support in this OS?

That would be the only reason other than the tests tthey might release this. Too make there new apps they are going to sell(I am almost sure of this but it is a guess) compatible with 2.1

Not tested, but I'm sure there is no Lua support in the 2.1.1 OS.

Everything I've tested/checked up to now is similar to the 2.1.0 OS.

Moreover, both OS sizes are allmost identic. The difference is inferior to 35 kilobytes...
