Just installed 2.2 properly (ie wipes etc) and the fonts on the whole phone are different from what I'm used to seeing on Starburst and other ROMs. No issues really but my gmail app is screwy.
My message list displays funny when new emails come in that are bold. It seems like my whole message list goes bold (and somewhat blurry) so even read emails go bold.
I suspect some font is missing or corrupt but I have no clue how to fix.
Any suggestions?

Here's a screenshot to show you the issue:

The "Test" email at the top should be bold type. All other messages should NOT be bold. It's almost like Gmail is using the wrong fonts.
I tried setting all fonts to DroidSans in the system and GoLauncher with no luck.
The screenshot doesn't show it, but the resolution looks goofy too almost like there's a little blur around the letters on the screen.
rather than create a thread this should be asked in the viper rom thread. viper rom is a custom rom with some things changed, read the OP and you will find a zip to flash back to the stock look.

I would have if I could have, but I didn't have 10 posts so I couldn't post in there.
What ZIP are you talking about? I scoured the thread for a long time. Threads with 1,000 posts are kind of hard to skim through. LOL
Nevermind...I found the zip for the stock fonts.
At least I have 10 posts now!

I'm not sure if that's possible (well I'm sure maybe it is, but no idea how). Every time I've ever changed to any font, it changes everything. Everything. I've always used the stock browser, and that always changes with the font change. I have never tried a different browser, like dolphin HD or Miren, but maybe you could try one of those and see if it retains the original font or if it also changes.
Thanks, any other opinion
Well as far I know is supposed to be like that. When you flash font that will change font on everything.
The browser uses the system font. You changed the system font. What kind of other options are you looking for? Its pretty black and white.

Use Firefox Mobile for your browser. It uses its own fonts.
That was one of the things I hated about it, actually. If I set a font for the system, that's the font I want to have everywhere. Obviously, some people disagree. For you, there is Firefox.
Firefox to the rescue!
Hi all,
I use a custom theme that is just a hodgepodge of things I liked from other themes, plus my own touches.
Recently I've noticed an issue where certain text boxes will appear with black text on a black background, making the text invisible. If I click in one of these boxes, the background will temporarily turn white and I'll be able to see the text, but it means clicking on each box that looks like this.
I'm experiencing the issue in multiple apps, but not all.
Here's the problem for a contact. Notice that the first name and phone number are not visible:

But it doesn't always present an issue. Here's GMail looking fine:
Can anyone tell me which XML entry (or entries) I need to update to fix this?
Thanks!
Your skills probably outreach my own but I think its in values/colors.xml in either com.htc.resouces or systemui. Should be one of them if its a shared value.
This might be tough to track down. What Rom are you using? Do you notice it more in third party or market apps as opposed to system apps?

Sorry - I didn't realize how little info I included in my original post
I'm using CM7 nightlies and this is a Theme Chooser theme. I don't notice any pattern between system apps and non-system apps, but I've switched back to an older version of my theme for now.
I've been able to narrow it down to a point in time... I have one working version "before" and one broken version "after." Now I just need to comb through them to figure out what I changed... then evaluate each change to see which one caused this.
Hello xda community,
I just rooted my phone not long ago, I've learned a lot on xda about rooting and flashing roms so far, however, i'd still consider myself a noob..
I just flashed the mexdroidMod Ghost chili rom to my phone (thank you to the mexdroid team), and I was wondering if you guys could help me with two issues I've been trying to figure out...
1). On my notification bar theres a red icon and I'm not sure what that icon is (and how to remove it) I will provide a screenshot below
2). this is going to sound ridiculous but everytime i either make or receive a call... the picture is a spam logo... like the canned spam hahaha
heres the link for the screenshot

1) looks like a bluetooth icon of some sort
2) looks stupid. Some kind of calling feature tagging a number as spam? but not sure why that would happen on an outgoing call.
Never used this ROM. I think my 1st answer is solid, 2nd answer is completely expected.
Also, did you search the ROM thread or post in there first? Its a bit more of a targeted audience...
You were correct, the red icon is for the bluetooth indeed, I should've checked that. As for the odd spam picture, I will def try to look deeper into the rom thread, thanks for your help!
edit* yeahhh... so the spam guy is intentionally part of the rom... the rom is awesome, it was kind of funny for like.. the first 10 mins maybe, oh well
so far i'm loving this rom, working a lot better than the last rom i tried. something i noticed, was same on warm 2.2, the android calender widget is unreadable for me. on warm 2.3 the font is white with white background. i've tried new fonts, no help. anyone know how i can fix this? please and thank you
Just seeing if I'm looking at the proper widget, is it either of these two? Cuz I use HTC's widget.

yes, the one on the right
Gotcha, the issue is actually the widget itself. Since there's only been one release and active development is non-existent, bugs were left to us to find. I believe you'd have to edit the widget apk to display text in a different font. Unfortunately, I have no experience editing files so I can't walk you through it.
Edit: all I can do is offer up alternatives, line using the HTC widget (the 4x1 horizontal one) or trying a different app entirely like the superb "Jorte Calendar" which has a TON of customizations. It's available in the market.
i wanna thank you for your response, that calender seems to be doin what i want. got another question i hope someone might be able to help with. still on warm 2.3, all of a sudden the contact pix in the stock messaging app are gone. everywhere else they seem fine, just in messaging they disappeared. anyone else run into this? thoughts on how to fix?
i thought maybe another app caused it so i reflashed but after a day or so, same thing happened.
Hello, I'm trying to work on the AOSP mms that comes in the Bly Pulsar theme from Master&Slaves Blu Ray ROM, SO far this is as far as I have gotten.

I'm trying to get this all transparent
Any ideas? or help even? Thank you in advance.
I'm not a dev, but this is pretty sexy Not trying to change anything, but that green unread icon might fit the theme a little better if it was blue. IMHO
The green icon is actually because its linked to gtalk showing that they are online or away
Are you making all screens transparent .... That would be rather dope .. I am assuming you would then have to have the option of color choices for words etc,
No, right now im just doing this mms for me, or anyone else who wanted to use it, and i just started themeing o i wouldnt know how to do that yet, im still learning
i want to try it, can you provide a download link? thanks
I'm down for this idea.

Attached is the zip, just flash in recovery, also for the transparency to work you have to enable black background in the mms settings
I am having this strage issue, I was able to flash it in recovery, I enable black background in settings. rebooted
But when I scroll a mms thread, it reverts back and forth to a black background, then back to a white background
Did a fix premission, but didn't fix the issue
any ideas how to fix this?
thanks
