| TI-84+ as a flash drive: install programs with drag and drop. | allynfolksjr | BrandonW claims to have created a replacement for TI-Connect, and has provided a screenshot showing his TI-84+ connected to his computer. This is nothing new, until you realize that it shows up as a flash drive. Everything is handled on-calculator, with no PC component besides reading the emulated USB drive. The key is a program ran on your 84+ that does the emulation for you. What does this mean? You can send files by simply dragging and dropping without going through TI-Connect. In fact, this could spell the end of the reign of terror TI-Connect has brought upon us for so many years.
He plans to release a beta within 24 hours. | | 13 Jul 2008, 01:56 GMT |

| | | Re: TI-84+ as a flash drive: install programs with drag and drop. | allynfolksjr | Oh, you did.
[01:07:27] < BrandonW> TI Connect's days are numbered.
[01:07:49] < BrandonW> I'm hoping to get a beta released with read-only support within the next 24 hours.
[01:08:24] < BrandonW> In fact, I plan not to sleep until it's done.
Kind of.

| | | Re: TI-84+ as a flash drive: install programs with drag and drop. | BrandonW | Kind of, but not really.
I should point out that this is a general purpose USB peripheral driver, allowing your calculator to also show up as a standard USB keyboard as well, among other things if I finish them. | | 13 Jul 2008, 14:26 GMT |

| | | Re: TI-84+ as a flash drive: install programs with drag and drop. | BrandonW | | Looks like I have to put it off for a day or two...more to do than I expected. :( | | 14 Jul 2008, 00:35 GMT |

| | | Re: TI-84+ as a flash drive: install programs with drag and drop. | Zachary940 | It is about time. Sweet and thank you BrandonW

It is much easier to suggest solutions when you know nothing about the problem. | | 13 Jul 2008, 19:36 GMT |

| | | Re: TI-84+ as a flash drive: install programs with drag and drop. | darksideprogramming | | Wow... yet again Brandon never ceases to impress me. Good work, and I hope to test this out soon (yes, I do actually still own a 84+, contrary to popular belief). | | 24 Jul 2008, 06:18 GMT |

| | | Re: TI-84+ as a flash drive: install programs with drag and drop. | Vectris | | It's not out yet. It's actually pretty easy to put programs on your calculator anyways, but this would be a lot cooler, and yes a bit easier. If you are having trouble getting phoenix post it in the other forums and we'll help you out. | | 22 Oct 2008, 19:19 GMT |

| | | Re: TI-84+ as a flash drive: install programs with drag and drop. | darksideprogramming | | Have there been any updates to this yet BrandonW? | | 5 Jan 2009, 12:44 GMT |
|
| | | Re: TI-84+ as a flash drive: install programs with drag and drop. | BrandonW | I've been way too busy to get back to it.
I'm kind of put off by it because it's going to be insanely hard to get write support in there, plus I have to rework the keyboard driver in periph8x, which pretty much means the core of periph8x. I'd love nothing more than to get a beta out there, but stuff happens.

| | | Re: TI-84+ as a flash drive: install programs with drag and drop. | M1dNightSniper | | Just wondering its been a couple months since this has come up but is a beta available, i could really use this because i only have acces to computers with vista or windows 7 so ti connect is total fail on these O.S's. | | 29 Sep 2009, 18:21 GMT |
|
| | | Re: TI-84+ as a flash drive: install programs with drag and drop. | zarg | This is from a long time ago, and I don't mean to bump this, but did you ever complete your program or release a beta?

In most countries selling harmful things like drugs is punishable. Then howcome people can sell Microsoft software and go unpunished? (By hasku@rost.abo.fi, Hasse Skrifvars http://www.linuxweb.com/lw_quotes.html) | | 13 Apr 2010, 18:53 GMT |
