Where to download Nspire 1.1?
« on: April 05, 2010, 11:33:14 pm »
I just got an nspire, and was an idiot and upgraded the OS right away to 2.0.

Then I found out about ndless, and the gbc emulator, which both look awesome. So I'm trying to downgrade, but for the life of me can't find any working links to the 1.1 OS.

Can anyone help?

Hi and welcome here.

Unfortunately, TI-BANK received a cease and desist letter two days ago for providing links to OS 1.1 on their website, and several years ago, some english TI websites received takedown notices for redistributing TI-8x OSes. Ndless downloaded OS 1.1 from TI-BANK. Now this auto-download feature no longer works, which means you need to search Google for a copy of tinspire_1.1.tno or tinspire_1.1.9253.tno (I don't know how the CAS OS is named). Unfortunately, because of the takedown notice the french TI file download site received, we decided to not take any chance and not redistribute any copy of the OSes ourselves. For now we are forced to redirect users to Google or if they know illegal file download places (such as Torrent sites) that we can't share either (including via PM), they can check those places too, since OS 1.1 is most likely alerady spreading there now.

I've searched google thoroughly, and although some sites mention it in the google cache, it is missing from everywhere. >.<

I'm assuming there is no factory reset for this calculator to get back the old OS? I don't have anything on it anyways.

Unfortunately nope. I personally had to search an hour for the OS. Keep in mind that since TI-BANK just received the cease and desist letter two days ago, that it may still take a while until Google updates its cache enough to make links to OS 1.1 show up.

Blame TI for being stupid x.x, I mean it's not like we're modifying the OS and selling it. They won't even lose money by allowing people to provide OS 1.1. In fact, it's easier for them to make money, since Ndless may slightly increase their sales, when people see those new ASM games pouring on ticalc.org.

The good news, though, is that Ndless 2 apparently runs on OS 1.7 and 2.0. I am not sure if it does on 2.0.1, but apparently the security exploit is still there, meaning maybe it will be easy to adapt for all 3 OSes. Now we just need to wait until it's out. The authors won't release too many info so TI know as less as possible, so we just have to be patient.

I would like to provide links to the OS, even if just via PM, but we do not know if TI didn't ask the webhosting provider to keep an eye on my site webspace in case I provide any links, especially that we're by far the most active TI calc forum on the web. Sorry.

You could always PM steev for his email address, then email him the links.

As for sales increasing, ticalc.org should really change their Nspire page to reflect the new developments. Otherwise, people will still think the Nspire "lacks programming ability".

Yeah that could work, too. We still try to make sure no TI employees in disguise pass themselves as a new member wanting a copy of the OS then report us to 1and1 when we share him a link. But again, if we delete any proof nothing can really be done I guess by them.

And yeah I think that's something I'll report to Tev/TravisE on IRC.

Yep, updating those calc pages is on the to-do list. Right now we've been preparing to move ticalc.org to a new server, though, so we're kind of holding back on modifying the static content until then so the transition will be simpler. Thanks for bringing it up!

Mhmm I hope the move goes well. I remember last time it happened (2003) archives went down for a while then file reviews took half a year to come back x.x

This is also at that time Mail lists became invisible to public

Netham45 sent me a PM asking for my email, but apparently I can't send PM's yet. >.<

It would be awesome if someone could email me a link though. I'm no TI employee, lol.

If anyone is nice enough, my email is my username with a zero at the end @live.com. (not posting to thwart bots)

I hope no one thinks I'm from TI......

EDIT: Then again, if I was from TI, I would totally sell out and give you the RSA encryption, because I'm a homebrew fan.

lol well anyway if a member decides to send people copies of the OS files and that there are no links to them in anyone's PM or posts, technically I can't do anything since this is external to this site. I personally just won't provide any link to them myself, nor help anyone finding a copy, since I am this site admin.

Except I only just got my nspire and it has at least 1.3 on it, since the battery has been lasting forever.

Lol, I know what you are talking about. I won't go into details, though :P

But via Google, currently there is nothing, BUT, if you check often, eventually you may be lucky and fall on what you need!
