lol. I e-mailed them asking how to downgrade, seeming like I didn't even know Ndless existed (I asked how to downgrade to 1.3) and they just said it is not possible without supplying any good reason.

Maybe we could come up with a legitimate (i.e., unrelated to Ndless in any way) reason to downgrade, and approach TI with that.
Quote from: juju2143 on July 21, 2010, 02:10:59 amI wonder what would happen if you directly asked TI about unsigned code stuff, Ndless or even asking them to send you the signing keys... Is someone enough jackass to call them about that? I'm sure they will forward you one billion times before reaching someone smart enough to understand what you are saying. At least. Then the rest will be unexpected, in the worst case they will send you a DCMA notice or just give you some stupid answer.You know what, I'm actually thinking about doing this. I don't have an Nspire, but I think it would be interesting if I ask them so bluntly that they would actually have to have someone type out an answer instead of just running their auto-answer program (written completely in TI-BASIC so that you have to wait 2 weeks for a response).

Hello. I just updated my TI-Nspire to the new OS 2.1 just recently placed on your website to see the new features. Unfortunatley, my teacher will not allow me to use any operating system above 1.3 because of added programming capabilities that can give me an unfair advantage on tests. Usually after upgrading my OS to check out the new features, I could simply resend the lower OS version to my TI-Nspire. With this new OS version, when I try to send OS 1.3, I get an error at the end of the file transfer that says that I can't install the OS. Could you assist me in installing this older operating system? I will not be able to use my TI-Nspire in school next year if I do not fix this problem
Sorry to be so pessimistic, but you can still downgrade to 1.7 (2.48) which doesn't have mathprint.
No, as Brandon said, "ndless2 NEEDS to come out, if geogeo and such dont do it, someone else will.
But lets not forget that much of this needs to be done by asm, for which we need ndless2, so that should be the main priority
