QuickWheel 1.0: Free TrackWheel Emulation Software for Blackberry
TrackWheel is an important feature of BlackBerry’s operation, though since 8100 RIM dropped and turned to TrackBall. Anyhow, TrackWheel is really a classic design, its ability for quick access is very impressive. But on the other side, TrackWheel is the easiest component of BlackBerry to be damaged due to frequent usage.
The administer of BerryMail developed a software to emulate TrackWheel according to the suggestion of a user in BerryMail forum
According to the instruction of the developer of QuickWheel, users have to change the permission of Keystroke Injection to make QuickWheel work.
Things to be noticed:
1. It is not useful to 7200 series as 7200 series don’t have shortcut key. On 7100 and 8700 series, it works fine. However it needs the only shortcut key, which is needed by many applications.
2. Whether the application can work on 7100 with OS 4.1 depends on the “It Policy” of users’ handsets. It is also possible to have problem on 7130 and 8700 but in general it is more problematic on 7100. On many 7100, the only option for Keystroke Injection is deny, thus, users cannot run QuickWheel without change this. It may be changed with BES.
The way to use it:
QuickWheel needs activation code, which is www.berrymail.cn, for the first running. Then users can map shortcut key to QuickWheel in option–Screen/Display, after that, the menu can be invoked by pressing shortcut key.
The idea is given by trobics, who also made the icon and tested it.
