??? Ti-84 silver plus totally screwed up!
« on: April 12, 2012, 11:01:21 am »
I have a Ti-84 plus silver.  I was kinda annoyed with something, so then I tried restalling the OS (2.43).  The OS didn't install correctly because the batteries were too old.  I put in new batteries, reinstalled the OS, but now TI Connect says it's a Ti-83, and also whenever I try to launch an app, it will turn off, and then you can't keep it on anymore unless you ram clear (hold Clear, press ON).

Any solutions?  Thanks.

do you, or anyone you know, have a calc to calc cable.  wither the usb, or the 2.5 mm to 2.5mm cable?
If so, try getting your os from someone else's calc.

take out a battery, hold del, and put it back in. that will put you at the os transfer screen; then just use ti-connect to send 2.43

Already tried this.  didn't solve any problems.  I will try calc to calc though.

i doubt that will do anything if resending from the computer didn't help, but it could be ti connect being broken, i guess, so go ahead and try it.

Maybe sending a 83+ OS will make ticonnect see that it is a 84+SE

Ok I got 2.55MP and the apps i deleted previously from a friend and now all the apps (including axe :) ) work.  I haven't tested TI Connect, but I have reinstalled it.

TI-Connect has a long history of giving strange errors, but I have never seen it do that with a TI-84 Plus so far. The only similar problem I ever saw was when the TI-Nspire was detected as a TI-92 instead of a TI-84 Plus while in 84 Plus mode or something like that.

Also welcome to the forums. Glad your issue is solved.

do you think it might be because TI put in some way to disable installing lower versions of OS somehow? That would be scary

8. DISCUSSION TECHNIQUE
A woman has the last word in any argument.
Anything a man says after that is the beginning of a new argument.

Girls = Time * Money (Girls are a combination of time and money)
Time = Money (Time is money)
Girls = Money squared (So, girls are money squared)
Money = sqrt(Evil) (Money is also the root of all evil)
Girls = sqrt(Evil) squared (So, girls are the root of all evil squared)
Girls = Evil (Thus, girls are evil)

I don't think so, because I think thats how I got 2.43 in the first place, and that was after 2.55 came out.
