Re: HP Prime reset to factory settings Message #12 Posted by Han on 27 Sept 2013, 9:25 a.m., in response to message #11 by cyrille de brebisson
The ON,APPS,ESC sequence does work -- I only managed to get it to work by carefully making sure all three buttons were pressed simultaneously (and, like you said, with the calculator on).
While it almost does a factory reset, there are still minor problems. Apps that were previously created, while no longer appearing, still exist in flash. By merely creating a template app using the same names prior to the reset, and then connecting with the connectivity kit, I run into an odd behavior. What I expect to see (in the connectivity software) is the newly created template app containing
EXPORT app_name()
BEGIN
END;
Except this is NOT what I see. Instead, it somehow manages to pull the original code from the calculator. Yet on the calculator, all that is shown is the skeleton of an empty program. Of course, all I need to do is replace the existing code. I have had one case in the past where my app was actually "restored" into a built-in app such as the Function app upon connecting to the connectivity software.
