Cursor won't move on scummVM (S60 3rd)

I recently found out about ScummVM: (from the site)
...a program which allows you to run certain classic graphical point-and-click adventure games, provided you already have their data files. The clever part about this: ScummVM just replaces the executables shipped with the games, allowing you to play them on systems for which they were never designed!
So I downloaded it and installed on my Nokia 6120c and after some desperate attempts I gave up trying to move its the cursor. So I googled for a solution.

What you need to do in order to start controlling ScummVM with your keypad is to type the following keys in this order:
  1. Send
  2. j
  3. 1
  4. Send
Now the cursor will move and all of the other keys will work fine.

This Month on My Phone

Since this is the first post of the series, I’ll post older images too.

These pictures were taking using my trusty Nokia 6120c. The camera is pretty bad but it’s enough as long as you don’t need to take night pictures.

The image dimensions here are much smaller than the originals.

Bye bye Heysan!

I've been using Heysan! for quite some time, and for those who I chatted with when I was on the road I'm sorry for all the spam it sent you during.

These spam messages were sent to you whenever you opened a conversation with me, or whenever I did. Also, it had too many ads for a small mobile phone screen.

But it wasn't always like that--the service started really well, but as time passed they added ads, some lame point buy-and-sell system and made their spam messages more annoying than ever (it started with a simple 'I'm using Heysan!' but now it's some long message you get every now and then).

I quit looking for a real application for my phone long ago (Nokia 6120 Symbian 60 - 3rd edition) for IM, because most software I installed used some ports that my service provider (Orange) blocked.

But when I had enough for the second time, I looked for other WAP IM and I found eBuddy. It has a web browser client, WAP and mobile phone software. I successfully connected to my IM protocols and chatted, succeeding where other Symbian software failed.

So if you're after one IM client, which is available in either the desktop web, WAP or Symbian--eBuddy is your answer. I just hope it won't go bad like Heysan! did.

Though, I'll always use Meebo.com on desktop computers. It holds my history, and is the best web application for IM I've seen.
