Hello,
I am encountering problems when I try to flash my 30B:
I have installed Harald's USB adapter (with LiIon support) but have not yet installed the battery and currently there are no coin cells in the 30B either.
I am using Ubuntu 12.10 32bit.
Every time I try to flash my calculator the wp34sFlashTool gives me an error message: Cannot open serial port.
I also tried using Samba for Linux but it does not work.
I don't think that I have any wrong connection on my calculator because it would connect to the USB-board and then display some sort of other error?
Could anyone suggest what I am doing wrong?
Please install a power supply! You can't expect your calc running on nothing ...
d;-)
Apparently when running the FlashTool you have to have SU-Rights.
After running the FlashTool as root I managed to flash my calculator. :)
It depends what right you need to have access to the serial port device. More a Linux configuration problem I would say.
Anyway, if it worked, everything is fine.
With the Li-Ion board that should work. But as soon as you unplug the USB the calculator will shut down of course. I wouldn't recommend this though,
Good to hear it worked. I never managed to flash the WP34s using linux. Maybe I have the same problem. I will try this when I get back home.
? The USB adapter normally supplies the power needed, coming from pc or laptop or the like.
