I tried transferring the 2.53 and 2.55 MP patch but TI-Connect keeps telling me "Cannot transfer application to the connected TI device. A certificate is needed for a successful transfer.

Do I need to manually sign the OS for a successful transfer? Note, my 83+SE runs OS 1.19 and here is the serial: I-0501


Ok. This should not happen.
I'm checking...

The certificate is not a problem with the signature, but with the header of the file.

I see. I hope it's not something to do with my calc/computer/the fact I use TI-Connect either X.x

Probably not.

Either I've made a mistake when creating the patch...
Either you haven't applied it to an original unmodified OS file.


Sorry, I haven't had the time to work on this today.

No problem. By the way I downloaded OS 2.55MP from TI web page.

I've just repatched all TI-84+ OS 2.30 to 2.55, and sent them successfully on my basic TI-83+ with TI-Connect 1.6.1.

I do not understand the problem.

Strange. Could it be an hardware issue with my 83+SE or even a broken certificate? ???

Can you send me the file you tried to flash?
I'll check if it's exactly the same...

WAIT! I figured out why it didn't work! :O

I was simply sending the wrong OS copy. The problem is that I always used LunarIPS and IPSWin, before, and unlike the one you suggested, when you patch an IPS file with LunarIPS/IPSWin it *overwrites* the existing copy of the OS. Because of this I expected your IPS patcher to do the exact same thing. As a result, I thought the modified OS was the 2.55 MP copy I downloaded from TI website. Before patching it I even took the precaution to make a copy of it, since I expected your IPS patcher to modify it directly. Now, just tonight, on my crowded computer desktop, I discovered a file called ti83plus_2.55(ptt)(reset)(version)(group)(flash)(addr)(84-83).8xu, which I didn't see before because of that.

In other words I was just sending the wrong 2.55 copy X.x. My bad D:

Now I sent it, but it stopped at 14% and my calc was left with a corrupted OS, though. And I am unable to send a 83+SE OS again, as the calc automatically shows the ERROR press any key to turn the unit OFF then turn it back on message right when transfer starts. Now I need to try from my 83+, but first I have to reinstall its OS since it seems invalidated. X.x (prbly due to Axe)

Maybe your batteries are low? Or is there a separate error message for that?

Well finally I got able to send 1.19 again fine. I just had to reinstall it on my 83+ first since it was invalidated (ROM Fail msg on self test) then send it to my SE from that calc.

I'll try OS 2.53MP now.
EDIT: No luck, Cannot transfer. File format is invalid. Used OS 2.53MP from TI-BANK and ti83plus_2.53(ptt)(reset)(version)(group)(flash)(addr)(xlib)(84-83).ips then sent ti83plus_2.53(ptt)(reset)(version)(group)(flash)(addr)(xlib)(84-83).8xu. I tried renaming it in case the file name didn't help and no luck either.

Hum... I've patched all my files without redownloading them.
I'm going to check the file on TI-Bank. Just to be sure...

Of course. Where is the patch?

What was the defrag issue? I wonder if you could post about it in the OS glitches thread too later if it's a glitch?

An app page that starts with FF will be treated by the OS as an empty page, which means that it'll be overwritten while defragmenting.
