I am sorry for posting this, coz I've failed in finding a way how to change font after flashing my X01HT in this forum. I am using LVSW 16/6 right now. It seems just fine now.
However, just after installing LetJapan font for, of course Japanese font, I saw my start menu font is bigger than before. I couldn't change it in screen menu. I searched it and it seems the only way is by tweaking it. The problem is, default tweak, at earlier version of LVSW (AFAIR, coz I flashed it many times ) and tweak from other (Tweaks2k2) doesn't work. There is an error message, but I don't understand it.
Is there any friend here facing the same problem? how to solve it?
Sorry if I repost this question, since I cannot find the thread. Thank you very much.
have you tried the font size settings for the phone which can be found in the settings just look hard for it. if that won't work its probably hard coded into the app you installed for japan lettering and your screwed
I did try, but only the font for today screen that changed. My problem is font at start menu. It did not change even I scroll the font size at setting-system-screen-text size to minimum.

Hey Vjaayyyyyyyy The new rom has a gap in the bottom of the connection manager. Do you know of anyway to overcome this?

Getting the same problem
How annoying
Hmm, haven't looked into it yet. I've not touched the new ROM yet, but my Universal rom is so screwed due to the stuff I do to it, I think it's time for a refresh. what rom are you using?
On the Phone Dialer, all we needed to do was copy in two bitmaps to replace the originals. Send me over a copy of the manager, or otherwise point me to the rom, and I'll see if I can do similar. At least this one is more VGA compatible then the last few. Try resource hacking it to see if it corrects it.
BTW - Sctojen - I notice you've still got the vertically offset (ie incorrect) titlebar text. Have you tried changing the font or playing with your window metrics (try CETuner to play with this stuff). I'm using a font called VJNina, posted somewhere or other on the board.

Vijay the following is the test imate rom I am using. Everything else rendering wise is fine.
i-Mate JasJar (PU10) Rom 1.30.68 WWE
Radio 1.09.00
Protocol 42.42.P8
Vj.
Not to sure what you mean by the horizontal text. Am Guessing from what i could make out do you use VJninja as like a system font. If so i will do a search and give it a try.
Also i notice in your screen shot you have got a nice looking battery bar sitting at the top of your screen where did you get this from.
Unfortunatly the new imate test rom comes with battery icon below (couldn't really get a good screen shot as it was in charging mode but with yours i notice you get several little bars with the 1 in the new imate rom the icon has just 2 big bars full and half full yours looks a little bit mor accurate. i would like to find out how to remove the one on mine and give yours a try.
Many thanks for all your help mate.

scotjen1: the vertical offset of your caption - in your screenshot, "Start" is touching the top of the caption bar. In mine, it's in the middle where it should be. This can be fixed, someone asked me once how I did it, I can't remember, but basically I use VJNina as my system font and CETuner to fix my "metrics". Have a look in the VGA thread for details (I think). But that's just cosmetic.
Battery bar - no idea. I thought it was built in. I'm not running much 3rd party stuff on my universal, since I only use it for development. I don't think I ran the extended rom cabs, so again, I'm not sure. I'll have to upgrade to the new rom soon and start playing. I haven't had time to look into any of it yet Busy weekend coding...

I think your battery bar is from SmallMenu/Plus (I think you told me once that you used this?). You can turn it on/off in the SmallMenu settings. (well - it certainly looks like the smallmenu battery indicator!)
man, do I have egg on my face.
Riceburner is correct, that's the battery icon from SmallMenu. You know, I never noticed? I use smallmenu on my Magician, which is my day to day phone, but I disable the battery icon because I use my VJToggleToday/PhoneAlarm hack instead. My universal hasn't been modded much at all yet by me, so I must have just left the icon on and not noticed. It's useful though.

For those interested, here's a link to the Nina font,

and VJNina, a cut down version 1/2 of the size, but removing certain rarely used (by me) international characters.

VJ, i guess its got nothing to do with the font. I had the start caption at an offset when i used to use OZvga to make the reg changes. I guess ozvga messes with some unwanted reg setting screwing it up....
However, if you copy the corresponding dlls (with 96dpi), and change the LogicalPixels reg values, the caption is center alligned!
Cheers,
San
Does anyone have the problem I have with the new rom, the new battery icon up on top bar still says its plugged into power when you unplug it from the computer, if I reset it it fixes it. Does anyone know how to fix this.
dreamtheater39: I'm sure it's not just the font, no reason why it would be. But I monkey around with various metrics, scrollbar size etc, as soon as I change resolution. So it's one of those. Not sure which, I just always play with a few by default... seems to correct the problem itself.
I just use VJNina because I find it a neater font then Tahoma at those resolutions. It's a hangover from my SPV days.

I have this problem too. Only when using Real VGA though, so my guess is that it's a problem with a slightly incompatible 96 dpi .dll file? (Of course, I don't really know what I'm talking about here, so feel free to expose my ignorance, everybody! )

The issue is with the system font size. For some reason, if you try to increase the size of the system font on WM5 it leaves the font at the same size, but raises it up. By default OzVGA tries to increase the size of all of the fonts when you switch to VGA mode. If you want to continue to use OzVGA and you don't want to deal with this, just go into the settings and change the System Font size for VGA mode to 900.

Chinese Characters on TMobile Dash
Hi everyone,
I have in my possession an unlocked TMobile Dash which I'm trying to get some use out of in Shanghai, CN. I can't get it to display any Chinese characters except in ClearVue applications and internet explorer (so no SMS, menus, network warning messages, etc.)
I once had hopes of flashing the dopod ROM, but obviously I didn't act quickly enough.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks!

just copy a chinese font into windows dir.
You can try to install the CE-STAR.
It's the great software for you.
I had heard that CE-Star works well on the Dash for Chinese. I personally am using the Dash in Japanese (SMS, e-mail, Web, not menus, though).
~Cheers~
what about Korean? what software or what can i do... so that my dash could read korean as well????
thanks,
display japanese characters? (kana, kanji, asian font)
Hi,
has anybody succeeded in getting Japanese characters to display? Especially in email, web (opera mobile), dictionary (MDictSP).

There are lots of free solutions for PocketPC edition (or palm os) on the web, but next to nothing for Smartphone.
I'll keep you up to date if I manage to get anything working (haven't experimented yet).
use CE-STAR
It supports most Asian languages.
Incoming call screen font size
Is there any way to increase the font size of the calling number and name on the incoming call screen? This is for the Rogers WM6 ROM. I've looked through the registry but couldn't find an entry for this.
I did change the system font to "large" in the accessibility settings, and while it changed other screens, it had no effect on this one.
Any help is appreciated.
Is there really no solution for this?
If you can find out how to change the colors to white that'll be great too. Sesinger, do you know how to change the colors of the home screen test to black? I've got some pictures I want to use as wallpaper that are too light for the white text. Thanks

To-Do List Font Size
Hey everyone, searched for 20 minutes so it's not on the forum or I'm blind. Regardless, I'm wondering how I can change some of the fonts - most importantly my "to-do" or "tasks" when I'm entering them in on the phone. Running the HTC Rom and wm6. I want to make the font smaller so I can see more on the screen when entering and scrolling...
Also, I'm wondering if there's a way to change the font size in the text messages. Size that I'd prefer would be "small" or "smallest" if your viewing any text in your pop.mail.
Any one have any places, programs, or instructions to modify this? Tried SK Tools and it wont change the font sizes on those, just menu, system font, and a couple others.
Thanks ahead for any help.
Huh funny thing is I am also looking at how to change sms font size... in a search this is one of the first posts to come up...lol...

a good way to use a different font size is to use a program called xtreme text.
it is a threading sms app.
the do to list or tasks can be changed only through using a xtreme agenda.
Ive searched and cant find a precise answer i am looking for, SO i'll do it with a thread
How can you change the default font, and font size used in wm 6.1? It looks too big and edgy.
Thanks.

Change Fonts
There are any software that allow to change the font?
font too small for me
Any idea how to increase font size, changed to segoe but too small. Accesibility setting doesn't have increase font option like other roms. Help. Thanks,
Dave
Haha, yeah after not being able to find how to change it I found both those programs. Been using for a while now.
Changing size of system font for WM 6.1?
In the original Chinese build of 6.1 the system font was significantly smaller and I think looked a lot better in text messages, menus, etc. However, now in the WWE version of the 6.1 ROM the system font is a lot bigger. Anyone know a reg edit or something to make it smaller again?
I would like to know also. I have tried editing the read_sytle.0409.css and changing the fonts there doesn't seem to affect anything. I would desperately like to reduce the font on the threaded sms conversations.
Hello,
First of all - I'd like to thank everybody for their support especially Kavana and Ricky for cooking these 6.1 ROMS. Wonderful Job !
Secondly, I finally got to installing 6.1 but still haven't made any modifications except restore sms/contacts and install smart tool kit. I love it - it's pretty fast compared to wm6.
The issues that I'm having is the following:
1) Colors - Say if i want Sliding Panel as my theme, how do i go about getting a black one and having a black background - sorry if it's been covered already.
2) SMS - I had almost 200 + SMS from my girlfriend that i had backed up and after installing 6.1, i restored them all only to find out, everything is in order now that is - for example
all incoming sms organized into sub-folders.
A
B
C
Even though this is cool, I don't prefer it and would like to go back to how it used to be before, that is all sms sorted by date - i'm having a hard time reading all her sms so if someone can please tell me what to do in regards to this, that'd be great.
3) Finally, I find that the system fonts pretty small compared to wm6, what can i do to change this?
For now, I think this will be all. I'd appreciate it if someone could help me solve these issues.
hmm, noone has a solution? I'd really appreciate it.

Answers:
1) Go to settings, home. Select Sliding Panel. Under the section that says color scheme, select black. Also, as far as having a black background, find one you like. Open it with your phone using file explorer. Select it as homescreen under the menu tab using the right soft key.
2) No help here
3) Edit your xml code and select different fonts for what pieces you want. You might also have to look at your .cpr file and edit it as well. Just use notepad to edit either one of these. Just look in the file for lines that refer to fonts like Lucidia Grand, or Times New Roman, etc. You get the picture? I hope so, good luck.
Thanks for your help!
LOL - I feel like a noob, even though i've done pretty much everything with this phone with WM6, i guess 6.1 cause of the new interface and all - i figured everything i wanted so far, haven't gotten the fonts yet but will do so but yeah got the sms threading disabled, got rid of clockontop, changed my background etc.
I have few minor problems with the stock rom...
i flashed with the new stock rom, used the adv. tool and hd hack, but i damadged the phone too much so i hard reset the phone.
now i want to change the stuff only by regedit, and done that for almost all what i wanted.. there are just few things that bother me....
i could not find the reg edit for the big fonts that are default in this rom (the menus, the IE fonts, ...)... the advanced tool had that option but i cannot find the reg for it...
if you check the attachment for IE and one opened WEB page, itd BIIIG... even zooming it to small does not help, after pressng one ling, i get a biiig page again... im going crazy...
i managed to fix the fonts in the menus on HOME, but in IE the menus still are big, and donno why they are bad if i have the pro2 screeen turned down.
anyone knows the reg fix for this big fonts, i guess the ie pages will be small once i do that...
help
in internet explorer: Menu-View-Text Size- select smallest?
does not help... the os fonts are set to big in the regestry somewhere...
need to set them to normal.
Hey guys - Just want to say this forum is awesome and I appreciate the community and everyone's hard work.
I recently flashed to SB Rom and everything is great - except I can't change the text size in the Gmail App. Stays on normal no matter what. I followed the instructions to a T. I'm wondering if anyone else has had this problem, and what can be done to fix it. Thanks a bunch.
*edit* I might be worrying about nothing. I was almost certain that before I rooted when I changed the font size in settings it would change the everything in the app - inbox and messages. The settings DO change the messages, but leaves the inbox text size alone. I'm probably just being stupid and thought that it changed before, but really never did. Sorry!
