Title: Interesting Bug in the 8x+ series
Post by: Hexatron on May 30, 2014, 09:50:29 pm

I found a bug:
If you press [2ND] + [ + ], [7], [1], then [2] your calculator's ram will clear
Anyone else seeing this bug?

I've ran into it a few times. Nowadays I just avoid using this key combo, though.

Now to be fair, sometimes that combination doesn't work as intended :P (eg when your archive becomes corrupted)

Oh yeah, you reminded me! There's another bug where when you try to archive a program to save space, you can't run the program anymore until you un-archive it!

That's if when you un-archive it it doesn't BAD ADDRESS on you :trollface:

Also, when you press Y=, sin, X, Graph you get a snake on the screen. O.O

And if you press 2nd+ALPHA, the cursor might turn into this weird "A" symbol...

Pressing the carrot (^) key makes the text all small in the new OS.  Don't 'upgrade' to 2.55MP if you find this bug annoying.

I usually just use CLASSIC mode instead of MATHPRINT.

(This was a real glitch)
Sometimes when you hit "Y=", the first selection is "6Y" instead of a "line selection-Y"

I'm not sure if this really goes here, but it was funny for me.

Are you sure it wasn't just caused by an ASM or Axe program?

Might of been...
I couldn't get a screenshot because I was in school. It was funny though.

Hitting [2nd] + [On] Makes the screen go white, or if you are using a Nspire CX it makes it go black.

I think you have a real problem with your CX if you can press [2nd] on it :P

Also, if you type 2+2 it says 4.

if you press [clear] everything disappears! and in the program editor, that line disappears! A must-do on complex TI BASIC programs with very long lines!

Do you mean [ctrl]+on on the N-spire?


P.S. I thought this was about the 8x+ series, not the Nspires.
