Installing firebird - nspire-emus/firebird GitHub Wiki

All the download links will be on the releases page. This should always have the latest binaries.

Windows

Download firebird-windows.zip from the above releases page. If you have administrative privileges, you can unzip the firebird folder into your Program Files directory, or you may unzip it into whatever folder you desire. Launch firebird.exe.

OS X

  • If you have brew cask, you can simply do: brew install --cask firebird-emu.
  • Otherwise, you can download firebird-mac.dmg, and mount it. Then, drag the app to the Applications folder, or wherever you wish.

Linux

Repositories for Arch, Debian, Fedora, Ubuntu and openSUSE are available on the openSUSE Build Service.

Android

Enable developer mode and install the .apk provided on the releases page. As the mobile UI does currently not provide a way to create a flash image, you have to transfer one from your computer.
In portrait orientation, swipe the keypad to the left to show the configuration panel and select the boot1 and flash images you uploaded.

iOS

Two possibilities:

  • if your device is jailbroken, you can just download the .ipa file and install it with your preferred method.
  • if it is not, or if you want to self-compile it, just follow the iOS build instructions, which will result in installing the app anyway.

In any case, you'll have to transfer the required files (boot1 and flash) from your computer. The easiest way to do so is with iTunes' file sharing.
Swipe the keypad to the left to show the configuration panel and select the boot1 and flash images you uploaded.

Note: if your phone becomes unresponsive or weird-acting on the first launch, just force reboot, it will launch fine next time. It is apparently due to the not-so-official trick we have to use regarding the JIT.
