TI-83+/84+ OS glitches compilation thread (all OSes)

1 byte makes all the difference.

[Deep Toaster]

Wow, as critor said, you're fast O.o These fixes are great!

[willrandship]

wait, what the.....I hadn't heard that one. Is it because it's two bytes, but only reads the first?

[Xeda112358]

Are you talking about the "p" thing? The "p" in the statistics menu is 6222 and the Str6 in this case is AA05. I made sure in case it was some other var type because, for example, hacked picture var Pic11 has the name GDB1.
[H]=5C07
lcm(=BB08

So in the "[H]" case, you aren't losing memory, but with the "p" you lose 1 byte of memory by doing the Rcl Ans. However, if you store it to a string and recall the string, you will not lose memory

Also, these will work fine if you are recalling it in the program editor. There are a lot of hacked variables that work similarly (if not all of them), but hacked vars usually require assembly intervention

Here's an interesting thing I need confirmed:
The upside down exclamation mark shows up as a regular one on OS 1.19.  I'm wondering if I did something wrong, or did TI just fail.

[yunhua98]

I don't know about that one, but when I connect with TI-Connect, after I pull the miniusb out, the cursor gets replaced by a down arrow, and when I press anykey, its a RAM clear, its happened multiple times, too

[z80man]

Eleven times out of ten, it's TI that failed

@Ztrumpet Screenshot?

Also that pack of patches Critor is making on TI-BANK will be awesome. (it includes every OS patches in one download)

I don't know about that one, but when I connect with TI-Connect, after I pull the miniusb out, the cursor gets replaced by a down arrow, and when I press anykey, its a RAM clear, its happened multiple times, too

On my Nspire it changes to a 2.

[yunhua98]

me or Ztrumpet? or both?

[ztrumpet]

Never mind, it looks like I accidentally changed my original program.  Sorry. 

[thepenguin77]

Yunhua, what kind of down arrow? Was regular arrow (black on white) or an inverted arrow (white on black)? Because if it was inverted, something is wrong as that doesn't exist.

[ztrumpet]

Or it just acted like [2nd] was pressed.

[AngelFish]

I found a new error message.

It's ERR:MSM and I can't find *any* records of it having ever been reported. It's difficult to replicate though, because running the offending program again changes it to ERR:INV, which is documented.

For the record, I'm using OS v2.55

[DJ Omnimaga]

Wut?

I really wonder how to recreate it...

[thepenguin77]

I don't think Err:MSM is supposed to happen. I would imagine that the program crashed and jumped to somewhere it wasn't supposed to. I've got Waiting... Please install an operating system now from crashing a program before.
