|
| | | | | (...) Thanks for the heads-up about this! (And also the pointer to the v1.04 firmware update, too!) It is amazing how far TLC has come since the early days of the RCX. Even for those who don't plan to change the firmware, there is certainly a lot to (...) (17 years ago, 11-Dec-06, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

| | | | | (...) This is very good news. Thanks for the update. I've been waiting for this for a long time, particularly to have a look at the rather weak graphics capabilities. I've had an expanded font (and a much smaller one) kicking around for a while now. (...) (17 years ago, 12-Dec-06, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

|
| | | | | | | | (...) I am curious; have you ever had a situation where bad firmware locked up the NXT? And if so, what was the process to restore it to working order? (I don't have a bricked brick, I'm just asking for future reference.) (17 years ago, 12-Dec-06, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

| | | | | | | (...) Flash memories all have a limited number of write cycles before they become unreliable. Usually, the on-chip write controller will "load-balance" the writes so that different memory locations all get used the same number of times, (...) (17 years ago, 12-Dec-06, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

|
| | | | | | | | (...) If this limitation had applied to the rcx, I'd have suggested this. Because you can control the outputs and read the inputs direct from a pc you could run an emulation of the rcx firmware running your program on the pc. The rcx would then (...)

| | | | | | | | | (...) Now that's a cool idea. I've been messing around with remote-controlling the NXT via Bluetooth from a PC application, and it seems pretty solid. You'd definitely have some timing issues running a remote emulation like you describe, but this (...) (17 years ago, 15-Dec-06, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

At normal room conditions, actual NXTs were reflashed (which cycles the lock (...) (17 years ago, 19-Dec-06, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)
