Installed an old version of nLoader by accident and now when I restarted my calculator it comes with the "this calculator has been modified to enable CAS functionality" then a red x upon loading and gets stuck there. I have tried getting into the maintenance menu but with no success and also the Diag menu using :nses: :nsme: :nsmo: but with no success and also the calculator won't turn on unless it is plugged in and charging.
Thank you.

Hi.

Maintenance menu won't work in this context.

Try the alternate boot image if you sticked to the nLoader install how-to :
  • hold :nses: :nsme: :nsmo:
  • without releasing them, press and release the reset button on the back
  • if the calculator didn't turn back on automatically, still without releasing those 3 keys, type :nsho: , 2 times if necessary

I have tried that but it just gave me the same loading screen

Hi.

Not impossible, but it's unlikely for :nses: :nsme: :nsmo: to give you the same screen.
It would mean the Diags partition has been wiped out, or reflashed with something unbootable. So unless you did it...

Retry the Diags combo by carefully following the steps ? Don't hold more keys than the ones specified. And it's the :nsmo: key by the way, not :nssg: .

Hello,
I have exactly the same problem, I can't enter the diagnostics, and maintenance menu. Nothing, only red X.

Can the calculator be revived somehow?
