Nspire diagnostic software dumper
« on: July 19, 2010, 11:47:02 am »
With the recent discovery of the diagnostic menu on the Nspires, we need to collect as much information on it as possible (it might even help us crack it!). We therefore need to have all the versions of these menus.

ExtendeD has written a diagnostic software dumper for Ndlessed Nspires, which can be found here:

binary : http://www.mirari.fr/ttad
source : http://www.mirari.fr/YWpt

Please post your Test_InformationScreen displays (screenies or just the text will do) here!
Dumps (as well as the Test_InformationScreen) should be sent to: [email protected]

Hint to acces the diagnostic menu:

Quote from: TI-Bank forum
1) Shut down your Nspire.
2) Take out a battery for several seconds (so that it will be able to reboot).
3) Put in the battery.
4) Simultaneously press Esc, Menu, G (for the TouchPads: Esc, Menu, Minus (the operator, not the sign)).
5) Press the On button to turn it on, keeping the previous buttons pressed.


I'll start out with mine.
Code: [Select]

If you don't want to post the dump, just send it to me: [email protected]
I will archive, classify, and compare them, as I've allready done with many OSes and boot codes.


To access the diagnostic menu, you have to remove a battery to reboot,and to press Esc Menu G On on ClickPads.

On TouchPads, it's Esc Menu - On. But you won't be able to dump, as you won't manage to install OS 1.1 and Ndless.

If I still had OS 1.1 on my Nspire and that my Nspire was not currently used for my Axe Parser project and that I had Computer Link Software 1.3 installed, I would be glad to do a dump from mine, but sadly, in the current circumstances, it will have to wait :(

It will take me an entire day to set everything up again, like last time.

I reverted to 2.0, because I was annoyed by the power management bug

I was trying to say something like that... without saying it too straight :p
Notice I didn't initiate that topic. I would certainly have initiated another way...

Here is what we have up to now:

Code: [Select]
1.1.9266      P3 DIAG MP FOR ASIC-3    2007-05-18 (dumped!)
?.?.????      P1R2 DIAG MP FOR ASIC    2007-04-17
1.2.2394      P1R2 DIAG MP FOR ASIC    2008-08-25
1.3.2406      TI-NSPIRE CAS DIAG      2007-12-18
1.6.4356      TI-NSPIRE CAS DIAG      2008-10-31 (dumped!)
2.00.DEVBUILD Iris Nspire Diag Menu    2010-01-22
2.00.1183      Iris Nspire Diag Menu    2010-02-19 (dumped!)

So we're looking for dumps of any version not marked as dumped, and for dump+infos on any version not listed here.

We are surely still missing a lot of versions...


Thank you for your help.

Here's mine:

TI-NSPIRE DIAG
DATE:2007-12-18
1.3.2406

Also, in the additional functions menu, I have an option called More Updates, where there's two sub-options: Update Diagnostics and Run Test Program. I wonder if these may have any use?

It sounds very interesting! :)

Could you install OS 1.1 + Ndless and dump it ?

Thanks.
By the way, it seems the diagnostic software is different on CAS and non-CAS (BASic).
So I'm slightly modifying the list.

Code: [Select]
?.?.????      P1R2 DIAG MP FOR ASIC    CAS  2007-04-17
1.1.9266      P3 DIAG MP FOR ASIC-3    BAS  2007-05-18 (dumped!)
1.2.2394      P1R2 DIAG MP FOR ASIC    CAS  2008-08-25
1.3.2406      TI-NSPIRE DIAG          BAS  2007-12-18 (dumped!)
1.3.2406      TI-NSPIRE CAS DIAG      CAS  2007-12-18
1.6.4356      TI-NSPIRE CAS DIAG      CAS  2008-10-31 (dumped!)
2.00.DEVBUILD Iris Nspire Diag Menu    BAS  2010-01-22
2.00.1183      Iris Nspire Diag Menu    CAS  2010-02-19 (dumped!)


By the way, ExtendeD has now updated the archive on Mirari with the CAS version of the dumper.
All CAS owners can now help us.

Thanks again for your help.

Errr, by any chance, what does this have to do with ndless2? Not that I am complaining, I only want to know how this can help.

diagsdumper doesn't work, though. I see from the source it is supposed to create ndless/diagsdump.tns, but nothing happens.
