[i]See [url]https://artofproblemsolving.com/community/c726379h1708491_ndless_jailbreak_your_tinspire[/url] for a full tutorial on installing Ndless, a TI-Nspire jailbreaking software.[/i]

[b]Q: Help! I tried installing Ndless, but my calculator restarted and the "Ndless installed!" thing in the top left didn't come![/b]
|
|
|
|
A: First check your OS to make sure you are installing the right version of Ndless. To check your operating system version, press [ON] - [5] - [4]. When you transfer the Ndless files to your calculator, make sure you send the correct files for your calculator's OS!
|
|
Also make sure that "ndless" is a top level folder.

[b]Q: Darn! I bricked my calculator while using Ndless! My parents will be so mad![/b]
|
|
|
|
A: You should first try restarting your calculator by pressing the restart button on the back. If that doesn't work, try reinstalling your calculator's OS using the [url=https://artofproblemsolving.com/community/c726379h1708394_tinspire_computer_link]TI-Nspire Computer Link[/url].

[b]Q: My calculator's feeling a bit slow. Should I get [url=https://www.ticalc.org/archives/files/fileinfo/434/43428.html]Nover 3[/url]?[/b]
|
|
|
|
A: Get Nover 3 at your own risk. According to the readme.txt file:
|
|
[quote]NOTE THAT THIS PROGRAM IS DANGEROUS AND MIGHT PERMANENTLY BRICK YOUR CALCULATOR IS USED INCORRECTLY.
|
|
YOU SHOULD BACKUP ALL YOUR DATA BEFORE INSTALLING IT.
|
|
ACCORDING TO THE LICENCE, USING THIS PROGRAM DOES VOID YOUR WARRANTY TOO.
|
|
Use it wisely.[/quote]
|
|
|
|
[b]Q: Oh no! I accidentally corrupted my calculator's memory! What should I do?[/b]
|
|
|
|
A: This sounds like a job for the maintenance menu. To access the TI-Nspire CX's maintenance menu, first turn your calculator off. Then, press [DOC][EE][ENTER], and while holding these keys, use a pen to press the (Reset) button on the back of your calculator.
|
|
|
|
You will have then be given four choices:
|
|
- Cancel: This option makes no changes except to reboot the handheld. This is the safest option.
|
|
- Delete Operating System: If you choose this, you will have to install your OS again using the TI-Nspire Computer Link.
|
|
- Delete Document Folder contents: This is exactly like pressing (Reset) on the back of the calculator. All documents are deleted, but you don't need to reinstall your OS.
|
|
- Complete format: This is the most powerful reset available on the TI-Nspire. All documents are deleted and you will need to reinstall your OS.

[b]Q: Does Ndless void my warranty?[/b]
|
|
|
|
A: Yes. Be very careful with Ndless. It shouldn't be dangerous, but you can still corrupt your system memory or something. According to the [url=https://education.ti.com/en-ph/customer-support/warranty-and-service]TI-Nspire warranty[/url]:
|
|
[quote]This warranty is void if the product has been damaged by accident, unreasonable use, neglect, improper service, or other causes not arising from defects in material or workmanship.[/quote]
|
|
|
|
[b]Q: I don't want to risk it anymore! How do I uninstall Ndless?[/b]
|
|
|
|
A: Open the ndless_resources.tns file on your calculator. Your calculator should then reboot. If the green text in the corner of the home screen is gone, then Ndless should be uninstalled.
|
|
|
|
|
|
[b]Q: I reset my calculator, and for some reason, I don't see the green text anymore![/b]
|
|
|
|
A: Ndless has been uninstalls everytime you restart your calculator. You can reinstall it by opening the ndless_installer.tns file.
