TI-84 Plus CE-T Version 5.3.1 downgraded to 5.3.0

I just downgraded so I can use the HEX codes which were in Version 5.3.1 not possible. Ther is a youtube video which explains why you shouldn't update to 5.3.1. Did anybody else have similar issues? I wanted to use the HEX code that allows me to switch to lowercase letters while coding within the calculator, but have still not figured out how. At least it's possible within TI Connect. But I tried other codes as well, to no avail. Maybe I will update back to it's original state. Appart from that I did not encounter any issues. Maybe because I only ran older pure Basic apps. There is just not enough time for all of this. Another allnighter…lol. Patience is the key.

I've avoided 5.3.1 like the plague, mainly for the reason of blocking Asm84CEPrgm (though hex codes will still function; you just can't type them as easily). The update also makes it harder to downgrade than usual, since the OS basically sets 5.3.1 (i.e. itself) to be the "default" OS version.

Also, what problems are you having with the lowercase letters? It should be as simple as creating:

:Asm84CEPrgmFDCB24DEC9

then running it via Asm(prgmNAMEHERE) (obviously with NAMEHERE replaced by the program name).

The solution to a complex problem is often a simple answer.

Hi there,

I tried that, but let me try again. Maybe it's also in the hardware. My calc is so new, who knows, that maybe downgrading doesn't give the required effect. I got the ASM84 unblocked, but it's giving me errors. I try again and let you know. Thanks.

Wow…your todays hero. It finaly worked. That's just wonderful that after so many hours something good comes out of it. I owe you a beer, or two. Thanks heaps.

P.S. What I did wrong was having the :Asm84CEPrgmFDCB24DEC9 not as one, but split in two lines. I am realy glad I downgraded. There is a video tutorial how you need first a program that allows you to override the downgrade block, then load in the older version. Of course I have made a backup of the original system first.
