Got a G2 Prime? After backing up your memory, and having a paperclip at hand, type this expression in CAS:

(1%%2)/3.4

and see if you get the same wild display that I get (colorful random streaks). Poke the reset hole to recover control.

Results apparently depend on firmware version and platform. G1 Primes seem to just reboot or error. My virtual Prime sulks for a moment then silently exits.

My G2 with the 21 12 02 firmware shows the system error screen with some little, black, horizontal lines then reboots on its own with nothing lost.
