[help wanted]HP Prime restarting when connecting to pc - Frank419 - 12-02-2022 03:08 PM
I recently bought an hp prime v2 (revision c)and it seems fine at first.I tired to copy an app to it and it works fine.But after a week,when I tried to copy another app,the calculator crashes when I expands the menu in connectivity kit.What's weird is that I can actually monitor the calculator,make polls,and so on.The problem just happen with almost no reason.
P.S. I know about the On Apps Esc method. But since I have a lot of programs on my prime, this does not seems to meet my needs.

Alright then,now I finally remembered I had this post here.I got something which is probably the reason to the restart.If you upgrade your calc's firmware,and you have files in it(aka you have files created in older oses in current os)results in a restart.Deleting these files regains you the ability to connect to a pc.This also explains why on+apps+esc works since no more old files existed.
