There is something I've been wondering while messing around with Axe and running into funky crashes on my TI-Nspire (such as the top of the Nspire LCD turning into garbage (not in 96x64 blocks but rather 320x240 pixels res blocks, if you get what I mean)). When such crash happens, it means crap is being drawn on the LCD by individual pixels basis, meaning stuff is done in the memory in a different way than on a z80 calc, right?
Well, what I've been wondering is: could the TI-Nspire be hacked in TI-84+SE mode through "bad" ASM programs (ran with Asm() command) to be able to run native ARM9 code this way? Has anyone given this a try?
that said, this method would only work on a regular TI-Nspire, though (the one with the 84+ keypad).

Yes, I was digging into this from day one.
While there are emulator exploits, there's nothing to allow native ARM code execution. And now that we can disassemble the 84+SE emulator directly through the Nspire's decrypted OS, we're even more sure there's no exploit like this.
Never impossible, but very very very unlikely.

Aaaah ok, thanks for the info. :)
