swankyleo 2nd February 2008, 12:04 Let me provide more info on these apps mates....
Jbaktools is altogether a different app still in development(although author seems to have lost interest in this one a bit) and is quite buggy. It provides various tools like NoRedKey, it hijacks the left & right softkeys on the standby screen to provide shortcut menus of its own. Other features include Clipboard history, quick language change & some more. As of now it just drains your battery & UI is buggy.
The Pencil is exactly what NP has described. It has no UI and you have to edit the file mentioned manually. To use the missing pencil key functionality you need to have a key on your phone that can be dedicated for this functionality. Because after mapping that key it will loose its original functionality (like the camera key). This app was designed to be used out-of-box on E90 and default scancode defined in INI file is PTT key.
To use the Pencil app you don't have to install JbakTools. As for finding the scancode of the key you desire to use, use the Jbak Keycode app posted here ([Only registered and activated users can see links]).
Hacklife 2nd February 2008, 13:39 I wish this app would emulate the middle ok key.with pencil key...isnt there any way to make it emulate other key.

I think it will still work.. I tried using the multi-Media button for N82, it works.
Only catch is the Multi-Media button will still launch that menu, and I could also activate another program using that combination of "Pencil" + "0"..
manolinp 2nd February 2008, 17:49 Now I can haf the pencil button in the simple 6120C!
Thanks and KarmaRep++ for dis NP (finally I can do it again :) )!!
Cheers

PHoeZies 2nd February 2008, 21:30 manolin bro..
Whats the scancode for pencil button on 6120?
Josh81 8th February 2008, 14:14 Is it possible to change the assigned key back to what it was? i don't want it stuck as pencil if i don't like it, or want to change back.
And yeah also Manolinp, can you post the scancode for the pencil on 6120c?

If you don't wanna get stuck the only way out is to uninstall the app
You require the scancode of a key to which you can assign the pencil function ;) Check out this post [Only registered and activated users can see links]
PHoeZies 8th February 2008, 15:51 I must say tis app is really useful. Especially for people like me who use Xplore alot. Thanks NP bro :)
Josh81.. U can use the camera button as replacement for pencil button. The scancode for camera button is 171.
U can just edit thepencil.ini like described in post#1.
Althou it has no autostart feature but u can use powerboot to make it autostart everytime phone reboots :)
PHoeZies 8th February 2008, 15:59 Moreover I think if we want to restore the function of assigned button, We can just edit again thepencil.ini to previous scancode the reboots phone..
I havent try it but I think must works.. Just try it.. CheerZ :)

Or just close/kill application using TaskSpy.
When you want it to be active again, just open it from phone's Menu

what program can i use to edit the PENCIL.ini file , jbak tools will not install on my N82 ( i think becuase of russian lang,my phone EMEA), ybrowser and active file cannot edit the THEPENCIL.ini file
MatteoX 2nd April 2008, 18:27 edit whit x-plore ;)
NightShift79 13th April 2008, 18:10 This would be great if I can get it to work with my N82.
Installation went good..
then I used the "scancode" app ([Only registered and activated users can see links]) to get the scancode for
that [Only registered and activated users can see links] key
so the scancode tool shortly shows me scancode 186 then opens the menu...
I closed it and opend "thepencil" after that i have edited the pencil.ini changed scancode to 186.
But the menu will still open. there's no penic key :(
Anyone can make this clear, plz ?

Try using AnimGui ([Only registered and activated users can see links])to find the scancode ;)
NightShift79 13th April 2008, 19:00 same thing. gives me code 186
but it won't give me the codes of the volume keys.
So, why doesn't ThePencil work if i put 186 in that ini file?
lovingUcbog 13th April 2008, 21:27 cannot be signed, with signsis. Jbak tool cannot be install as well on my N82
PHoeZies 13th April 2008, 21:51 Nightshift, if the volume button not works then change wit another button.. Like for ex camera button.
