What method did you use to dump the ROM from your calculator?

you need to run the program (I believe it's a batch file) with the correct arguments, and it makes a rom file. Changing the file extension of the app vars will not do anything. Also, changing a .ROM file to .JPG will not work either, since the JPG is actually a valid image, which contains pixels that jsTIfied translates to a .ROM file.

You must download TI-OS 2.55 MP to your computer
Move the downloaded os to the folder that rom8x.exe is in
press Windows Key + R and click browse and double click on rom8x.exe
after the C:\xxxxx\rom8x.exe, type 84PBE -u (filename of the os).8xu
click ok

As Comments2010 said, you can't just rename the appvar. You should have sent the two programs that came with rom8x, and run them both. Each program will create an appvar which should be sent to your computer. You will also have to download the TI-84+ OS, which you can get from here. You then want to make sure the OS and appvar files are in the same folder as rom8x, and run
