Could TNOC be modified to fix this problem (remove the Chinese font from 2.1)?

No, it's not a separate file.

So that doesn't happen with the 2.1 CAS because it doesn't have the TI-84+SE ROM and is a little smaller ?
Correct.




For the curious: The main reason 2.1 is so much larger than 2.01 is that it has support for the Chinese language. (If you scroll all the way down on the languages list, the last two options are simplified (mainland) and traditional (Taiwan) Chinese, respectively.) Chinese has, in general, a different character for each word, so it requires a very large font (853 kB) in case someone wanted to use it in a document:

Whoah i would like to know how to type chineseon the tinspire, i so want to, and i tried to but it kept typing english

and another bug found out add it to the many flaws that have aklready been discoverd

First, you have to choose it as the language (from the home menu, go to "5:Settings & Status" and "1:Change Language..."; it's the last two options)
Press the flag button to toggle between Chinese input on and off. When it's enabled, a "中" symbol appears in the upper-right.
Type in the word you want phonetically (in Pinyin for Simplified Chinese, in Bopomofo for Traditional Chinese), then press the number for the correct character.

Wow I see why it's so large... I wish there was a way to get rid of some languages. On the 83+ series, you can get rid of every language app if you want then re-install them later.

Will Texas pay you if it crashes your calculator forever?

I believe all TI calcs come with 1 year warranty.  Nevertheless, this problem will not completely destroy your calc, it only forces you to send an OS below 2.1 to update boot2 before you can send 2.1.

Well, serves TI right for releasing an anti-dev OS :P

I wonder what OS 2.2'll be like.

Yeah, when I bought my calc at Staples, it had a 1 year warranty. However, for the 2nd year extended warranties, you had to mail it to TI directly. I think now over here you just get one from Staples again or something. It might have changed, though.

As for OS 2.2, the only info I could find is http://tibank.forumactif.com/actualites-f25/infos-futur-os-22-t6083.htm

There were also rumors about a paid SDK somewhere, but I'm not sure how legit they are. Basically, for now it seems like it will mostly be the addition of 3D graphing stuff.

Uhh! 3D graphing? That would be very useful. No TI or Casio has that right?

The TI-89 does. All of the TI calculators have additional software that can be used for 3D graphing, though. For the 83+ series, Graph3 by Detached Solutions is the best I'm aware of.

KermMartian also wrote one and there are about 10 others, but I think the two best are by Detacheds and Kerm.

I didn't know... this website is great! I have learned more in a few hours than ever! (about calculators...)

Where's it in the TI-89? I have a friend that has one but doesn't really know how to work it...

Glad you like the website! :)

As for 3D graphing, I don't know where is it, though. I never used a TI-89 calculator for maths. ;D

Me neither... I use the TI-84+ (to program in class  ;)). Are those 3D graph apps for the TI 84 available on TI-Calc?
