Have a TI-Nspire CX loaded with the TI-Nspire CX CAS OS?
« on: December 28, 2011, 03:15:40 pm »
I own a TI-Nspire CX with OS version 3.0.2.1793.

On my calculator I notice that it recognizes the CX CAS only commands and yet will not execute them (meaning that this calculator has something alike or the same as the CAS, yet has the CAS functionality disabled).

So yesterday, I searched around on the internet and wound up eventually on this site and read a forum post that was similar to this one asking if there is a way to have the CX CAS OS working on the CX.  However, that post was old and hadn't been updated in a while for the newer OSes.

I also read that the most likely way to get the CX CAS OS to be loaded onto the CX would be with Ndless version 3 (which is in alpha stages or something along) and OSLauncher (which also seems outdated).

So my question is the title of the forum post: is there a way to have a TI-Nspire CX loaded with the TI-Nspire CX CAS OS?  Is it possible at this moment in time?   ???

Also if it is possible, would there be a way, once the OS is installed, to uninstall the CX CAS OS so that I could use it on any "high-stakes" exams I 'll have in the future so that my calculator is applicable? (What I'm thinking is that if there is a way, then just install the CX OS over the CX CAS OS).

Short answer: it has not been demonstrated, AFAWCT :)

OSLauncher does not permanently install the CAS OS, it merely hot-launches it (and often fails to, for some reason nobody has bothered to investigate). The Press To Test (PTT) mode triggers a reboot and therefore undoes the effect of OSLauncher anyway, so you wouldn't have to do anything yourself, for your calculator to be usable in standardized tests :)

Thanks for replying quickly.  Also can you give the long answer to the first question you answered?

So after PTT does that, I would, after the test and after I exit PTT, just relaunch OS Launcher (hypothetically since we don't know if there is a way to get OS Launcher to work on the CX series)?

Does that seem as though it could happen soon, or does it seem as if it is still along shot?

Well, that would be great if it came out in late-January to February.  Hopefully TI won't detect it quick and make an OS Patch update.

Ndless is software that allows third party C and ASM code to run on the Nspire series, and the OS launcher must be run through Ndless. Welcome to Omnimaga by the way! =)

Thanks!  Also I read up a lot last night before I posted so I wouldn't be too much out of the loop.

Well, there's no longer answer to "is there a way to have a TI-Nspire CX loaded with the TI-Nspire CX CAS OS?" than "it has not been demonstrated" :)

But they will. There's no doubt that TI will patch the vulnerabilities: they did, each time, in the past.

Also we need to be careful about releasing tools that allows a CAS to run on a non-CAS, because if it looks too easy for the average calc user, this could cause problems with TI.

Maybe add it as a hidden feature of a program?

Oh I meant the documentation to achieve such thing. Or programs like RunOS. There's a reason why RunOS was never released.
