So here is what I don't want to end up doing:

Hi,


Some TI-Planet content is available in both english and french.
It should default to english for guests when their computer language is not french.

Once regestired, you can set your preferred language in your user profile.

Anyway, you may ask your question in both french and english - most of us speak english too over there



If you did update your TI-Nspire HW-E to 3.6, then your Boot2 was also updated to 3.2.4.

To freely read PDF you need Ndless which requires OS 3.1
But OS 3.6 forbids you to install OS 3.1.
Thus you need Nlaunch, which makes Boot2 ignore the minimal installable OS version set in memory.
But Nlaunch only works with Boot2 3.1.

You then need to reflash Boot2 3.1.
This requires an external hardware: an USB/TTL interface:


By putting the TI-Nspire in Boot2 receive mode (Doc+Enter+2 while rebooting) and connecting ground, Tx and Rx to three contacts on the TI-Nspire bottom J01/Dock connector, you can reflash Boot2 3.1 with the Hyperterminal software coming with Windows up to Vista.


After this is done you can litterally do everything you want with your calculator, and we have comprehensive tutorials in both french and english for each step

So here's what I'm working with: ti-nspire cx cas, Version 3.2.0.1212, Boot1 3.0.0.99, Boot2 3.1.0.16

After drinking from this forum's infinite wisdom, I found that I dodged a bullet not updating any higher.
Now I want to keep avoiding that bullet and get ndlessly goodness, but i need some guidance.

So I have the right 3.1 update file (assuming TI didn't to some malicious switching).
I never even installed computer link before, so how does that work with installing the OS? Which version should I use?

Do I need to TNOC anything? (not that I know how) 

Special request, anyone know how to get the student software 3.1 version?

Edit: google chrome translator is awesome

Hello World,

I own a ti-nspire cx cas, Version 3.2.0.1212, Boot1 3.0.0.99, Boot2 3.1.0.16

I'm in engineering school and was going to updates my OS to 3.6 last night.
However being burned from several Android OS updates I decided to do some reading somewhere other than ti.com
After reading that 3.6 blocks a bunch of stuff that I would probably find useful, I decided against updating 

I usually don't have a problem reading lots of posts to figure out what's going on, but I'm starting from nothing and hoping someone would tell me where to start and what's some cool stuff I can do with my calculator.

I really hope to get a lot of use out of this thing, meet cool new people, and help others make their calculators better
