oh dear, after experimenting with https://www.reddit.com/r/nspire/comment ... _works_on/
this guide to dual booting, I failed in getting it to work and even after doing a reformat through doc enter EE, the storage space stays super small as seen here: https://imgur.com/a/VFnsY
I suspect this is due to me inputting bad nsPartManagic settings, anyone available to help me unbrick this calc? Loading nsPartManagic again causes the calc to freeze until i press the reset button do i have to buy a new calculator? :'(

Hardware details: NSpire CX (Rev E)
OS Ver: 4.4.0.532
Boot1 Code Ver: 3.0.0.99
Boot2 Code Ver: 4.4.0.8

Well it is not bricked yet, since it starts ! You just lost about 100Mo of storage...
But we'll try to repair that.

1) At which step did it get wrong ?
2) Can you still boot on an TI OS ? You can as your screenshot shows
3) If so, is Ndless installed ? You said that the calc froze when you tried launching nsPartManagic. If it wasn't installed, it would have given you an error screen.
4) If nsPartManagic still doesn't launch, does BtMg do ? If so, can you give a screenshot of it ?

We'll see more after your answers.

2) and 3) are obviously true because of his screenshot, and the fact that he tried to open nsPartManagic.

1) The wrong step was in Step C Part 9, didn't know what i was doing and lost my storage.
4) Can't start BtMg, error message: https://imgur.com/a/U0AGH

Here is a special build of nsPartManagic :
download/file.php?id=3083

Can it be launched ?
If yes, please share a picture of the screen, so we can investigate for the safest recovery way.
Thanks.

Just right-click the link.

Don't set anything - this special build might even be unsafe.
As asked, please share a picture of the screen first.

Thanks.
