News / Re: Casio FX-9860G & FX-9860GII OS 2.01 released
« on: May 20, 2011, 04:55:34 pm »
I downloaded 2.0 for Slim from here http://casio.bank.free.fr/index.php?mod=archives&ac=voir&id=128

I clicked on "Telecharger" Is this the (magical) file I need? (OS 2.0 string support and cool random number functions)

And is this file in English?

Absolutely yes! :)

1203
Yes, but how do we obtain 3.0.1 of the computer software? TI doesn't supply it anymore, and we can't just rehost it - it's commercial software that you need to purchase...

Unless this has been changed since yesterday evening, the 3.0.1 computer softwares are still hosted on TI web site and linked from TI-Bank.

Edit: Levak, cheater!!!! :P

Huh, okay. So the stuff I don't know about is the stuff that TI wants to keep secret...

For now, you know as much as us: we haven't received anything yet.


Keep hope about Lua in mid-term!

(unless you manage to "open" it through another way...)

1205
The anti-downgrade protection is somewhat predictable. They don't want us to downgrade to OS 3.0.1 and brick our calculators: That would mean more expenses for them.

Check this: http://ti.bank.free.fr/index.php?mod=news&ac=commentaires&id=1109

If this tool is released for free then that could be a light at the end of the tunnel for this OS

As promised in the previous link, more information today:
http://ti.bank.free.fr/index.php?mod=news&ac=commentaires&id=1110
I don't understand... In what way is TI involved?

Not sure if i can say more about that. I'm going to ask.

But if TI wants a public "clean" documentation about Lua, you should keep hope...


And what does "- seul ce qui nous est directement fourni par TI est confidentiel: pour le reste, nous restons entièrement libres d'informer" mean? Google Translate doesn't translate it well.

Without authorisation, we cannot share anything about what TI sends us (docs, tools...).

We remain totally free to share about things discovered by our own means, or by other people.
(to summarize very shortly...)

For now, this is only valid for Levak, AdRiWeB and me.

News / Re: Casio FX-9860G & FX-9860GII OS 2.01 released
« on: May 19, 2011, 08:31:18 pm »
Apparently it is also possible to install this OS on a Casio FX-9860G Slim too, using SimonLothar's Slim GII Mod tutorial. Normally the Slim can only run OS'es from the 1.x branch, as there are no OS 2.x available on Casio server for that model.

If I'm not mistaken, a 2.00 OS for the fx-9860G Slim had been released on Casio server and then removed...
It's on Casio-Bank:
http://casio.bank.free.fr/index.php?mod=archives&ac=voir&id=128

But it's very similar with the fx-9860G 2.00 OS.
So you won't get the GII features like that.

1208
I don't quite understand how third-party Lua development was a problem to TI to the point of making them spend time and money to block it. Lua is well sandboxed and doesn't threaten calculator stability or press-to-test.

That's what I'm wondering. I see paid apps on the horizon.

Maybe.

Except that there are new Nspire users each year, who won't visit Omnimaga or TI-Bank before upgrading.

And that new Nspire calculators are going to come with this new OS preinstalled.



We're in a critic situation.

It's just a matter of time before the calculators still able to run Ndless become a minority.
Nobody will go on developing Ndless programs, if nobody can use them...

1210
TI might have plans to sell the Lua SDK.

Or TI might only want to make it available to some "trusted" developers, so that they can indirectly control what kind of programs are released.

Or something else...

Trapped for the TI-Nspire and TI-89 / Re: Block Dude in Lua

The news said there isn't a 3.0.2 for the CX yet...

Both CAS and non-CAS 3.0.2 OSes are available for the CX since the beginning.
The link to the CAS CX OS on TI web site is bad, but a fixed link is available in the TI-Bank news:

1st post:
Quote from: DJ
According to Goplat's post and Critor on TI-BANK, it is still possible to downgrade to an older OS with TNOC, though.

It should be edited too.
It is still possible to use TNOC to have more free space, but it is not enough to downgrade.

News / Re: TI adds anti-3rd-party Lua game protection in OS 3.0.2

According to my latest informations ( http://ti.bank.free.fr/index.php?mod=news&ac=commentaires&id=1108 ), I think that the title and 1st topic of this news should be edited.

There is no way to downgrade after installing OS 3.0.2... absolutely no way... not even with TNOC or a RS232 interface.

I wish people like Goplat, Bsl, ExtendeD or Lionel are going to tell me I'm wrong :P

News / Re: TI France Releases Actual Pictures of TI-84 Pocket

On the other hand, I just realized something: Since it was released after OS 2.55MP came out, chances are none of the previous OS versions will work O.O
Why not? The normal 84+ doesn't have any downgrade protection at all. If it's going to have the same feature set as the original 84+, additions to the OS (like what happened with the 83+SE) aren't going to be necessary - you can just put any 84+ compatible OS on it. (Maybe even WFRNG OS ;D)

It's completely possible. The TI-83 Plus Silver Edition doesn't accept OSes before 1.13, for instance. Same with touchpads and the first clickpad OSes. Earlier OSes just don't take new hardware into account.

1.12 and older OSes don't run on the TI-83+SE, because of the different unsupported hardware.

But are you sure they aren't installable?...

Much worse:
http://ti.bank.free.fr/index.php?mod=news&ac=commentaires&id=1108
(last part in red)

There is no way to downgrade after installing the 3.0.2 OS.
Because there are 2 downgrade protections:

- one in the Boot2 which can be removed with TNOC

- one in the OS (the same as in the OS 2.1.0) which sets the minimal installable OS version to 3.0.2.1785.


The latest protection would need something like Nleash, which works like Ndless 2.0.
But what let Ndless 2.0 work in the previous OSes was fixed...

I know of no way to downgrade my TI-Nspire, not even with a RS232 interface.



Has TI just completly closed the TI-Nspire?
Has TI won? Has the community lost?...
