HP Prime stopped updating to the latest FW Beta 3
HP Prime stopped updating to the latest FW Beta 3 around 20%. What I get is the white screen with the X^2+Y^2=1. I tried, I think, everything to reset it including the battery removal, FCO+ paper clip, Symb+paper clip, ON+Apps+Esc. Nothing works and I can not even bring the calc. to the factory condition.

Search Google for "hp prime total reset" or for some similar stuff and you will get tons of advice. Something for sure will work for you if you try. For me worked 'Symb"+'reset with clip' then connecting usb cable and starting 'HP Connectivity Kit' after that I got the Recovery mode 17. I also deleted everything from the Firmware dir on my laptop and Checked for updates and downloaded the latest firmware (not the Beta) and then I Updated Calculator from connectivity kit and all went OK. I tried the latest Beta and it worked, but I reverted to the official firmware update because some applications in Beta did not worked properly. |

Hi John,
“Some application are not working properly”, can you tell me (us) which applications are not working properly in the beta version and have you send HP (calcbeta@hp.com) an email about this? — Dirk Hartland |

That was my main reason for going back to the official firmware release. I should not have had use 'not working properly' it should have had used instead 'are not finished in Beta3'. I apologize for not being more precise in what I wrote. No, I did not write to calcbeta@hp.com because I did not really test the Finance App, no bug(s) to report. For me it was not working the same as the one in the official firmware release, so I reverted back. Cheers, John P |

I could not get the solver interface of the Finance App in Bate 3 the same as it is in software version 2017 07 10. Maybe you redesigned the app completely. I do not know. Does it is suppose to work the same way as that in ver. 2017 07 10? I notices there was dropped down menu with TVM and other things, but I could not get the solver interface. How it is supposed to work now in Beta3? Cheers, John P |

How it is supposed to work now in Beta3? hi John, in beta 3: • go to Symb to choose Method menu: TVM, Interest Conversion, Date Calculation, Cash Flow, Depreciation, Break-Even, Percent Change, Bond or Black-Scholes • then go tu Num and input opportune data, relative to the method choosen • clic Solve No other things.

Hello,
the finance app has been fully redesigned. Now when you click on it, a drop down box appear, and once you select an option you have to click on NUM on the keyboard. You will be surprised of the amount of new features in this app. thanks Giancarlo |

RE: HP Prime stopped updating to the latest FW Beta 3
Thank you salvomic, Giancarlo et all.,
I put back the Beta 3 firmware. It works now as intended and it looks nice too. I did not know about the "NUM" key. Apologies for the confusion. Cheers, John P |
