Hello everybody.

Jean-Baptiste Boric:
Hi all,

I'm a French student with way, way too much time on its hands. There's about a bazillion HP calculators in my house, and I personally own a TI-82 Stats.fr and a HP Prime.

I'm completely new to the community, but I have a small present that should (hopefully) be ready for Christmas. After all, it was about time that someone started to rip'em apart, right?

Got it?

If not, do not spoil Christmas yourself and do not head over to https://github.com/boricj/ripem. Especially not before I managed to get something more useful running that the last person who did and being disappointed by the shameless hype. Also because there's no instructions yet on how to void your warranty with this because it's time for me to go to bed.

(Hint : I'm not going after armfir.elf, but rather directly for PRIME_OS.ROM).

Welcome to the forum. Sadly I am rather impatient and clicked the link ;) Looks awesome and I hope it works for you :D

I bet it looks even more interesting right now :

I technically reached the minimum amount of features to one-up Lionel Debroux's PoC. I won't make an official announcement on the relevant board before Christmas for obvious drama and pun combo reasons, but if anyone wants to mutilate their calculator experiment with this before then :

You need a way to connect to a 3.3v TTL serial port. Open up your Prime and connect said way to UART_RX, UART_TX (right on top of the flash chip on my model) and BAT-.

On Debian, install the required cross-compiler packages (binutils-arm-none-eabi gcc-arm-none-eabi gdb-arm-none-eabi), clone the repository, use make to build everything. Prepare a terminal emulator at 115200 bauds.

On Windows, replace PRIME_OS.ROM with ripem.rom, connect the calculator to the computer (the battery isn't required - the Prime can power itself from USB), flash the new OS.

Back on Debian, check that the traditional "Hello world!" appeared on your screen. Close the terminal emulator and use arm-none-eabi-gdb to poke around.

And as always : please void your warranty in a responsible manner, I take no responsibility for whatever you did to your poor calculator.
