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).
I've searched the forums a bit:

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.

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 everyone,
First time long time, love the show.
I've tried searching for something on this and couldn't get any hits. Maybe someone here may help point me in the right direction.
Specifically I'm searching for a way to modify the softkeys that are available in the default notify pop up when a new email message is received.
The defaults are:
Left=View
Right=Dismiss
Desired result:
Left=View
Right=Mark as Read (and to send the "mark as read" command of course not just change the text)
Device=T-Mo Wing
OS=6.1
Hopefully I'm in the right forum, if not then my sincere apologies.
Thank you all.

Please help, these are important text and very important emails. i want to change the text f=size throughout the whole system! Please help!
It should be in the clear type setting not sure exactly where it is tho
You can change the text size within your SMS messages by sliding the zoom bar under the screen. Just slide it to the right and all texdt will increase in size.

ive done that part, but i cant see what im typing it still tiny! =(
Search for KDFont
U can change the police AND the size in windows and/or sense
Be aware that in some case, u'll have calendar problem due to too big size
I have been thinking about this question for a while now -
I have stock Froyo, and if I send email from the Sense email app, the received email appears with a strange font (some form of Serif, I think), which looks nothing like the Arial font I'd like to see.
I'd like the font used to send emails to be the same as the font I use on Outlook desktop - so that it's not obvious when I'm sending from my mobile
I installed Arial on the phone via FontChanger, but of course it just renders everything in Arial, doesn't actually change the font used to compose and send email.
So, is there a way to change this font?
Hey,
I have a rooted DHD so it's pretty easy to change the font using CWM. I was looking at how to change fonts before i rooted and ran across this site. Might help you out.

Thanks for the idea, but I think that just changes the font that you see on the phone.
I guess the font actually used by the mail app is embedded (or at least referred to) within the app.
I was thinking of going to that folder - if accessible on the device - and pasting the renamed Arial fonts, or something similar.
I have been googling this on & off over the last couple of weeks, the question has been asked on various fora, but not answered
Pleas fix this global failure of Android email font setup
This question appears all over internet, but no one have working solution. How hard it can be to make mail app that defines font?
For example:
Email tipe <>HTML <>plain text
Font type <> Calibri
I am willing to donate if someone can fix this. from my point of view there are lot of folks in here xdadevelopers forum that seek answer for this issue.
it would be grate gift to Android Os users for Christmas
Hello, I just purchased this device and I have a problem..
I found out that when a friend of mine sends me an SMS with Japanese characters in it (or with symbols like these ★☆★), those are not being displayed as they should. They are instead replaced by question marks!!
I thought that maybe it was a font problem, but I couldn't find a way to alter the font in my phone without rooting it..!
Do you know of a way to alter this? I couldn't find something that seemed relevant in the options..
Thanks~
Do you have Japanese enabled in the settings?
It only takes 2 taps to thank somebody here.
which setting + what about the other special(?) chars?
Hello RedLedLight and thank you for the reply!!!!!!
Could you be a bit more specific? Which settings are you refering to? There's too many.. Are you refering to the system settings(where to find the one you want), or the settings of the stock messenger app?
Well, Japanese is not supported as an input method of the stock keyboard. That's why I had to download another one which would enable me to write in Japanese.. Still, I could write and send messages with Jap chars, but when I receive an SMS, then I'd just get question marks all over!
Also, any ideas as to the why those other chars are not being displayed? They're not Japanese.. In my samsung phone there's some symbols like ♡♥ºº•○●□■◇◆♧♣▲▼▶◀↑↓←→☆★▪ who ALSO appear as question marks when I send them to this phone!!! :S
