Awesome, Beautiful, now that's adding class to the Excalibur! "LED Digital Time". Everybody will want this add on.........! Looks more like the scoreboard clock at Madison Square Garden, or it makes me fell like I'm at the stadium watching the game, awesome guy. How much time is left in the game...........?

Here's a variation, with a font that looks MORE like a digital clock
Download .cab below... or just the files in the zip. Cab is easier... just install.

Your Digital Clock Looks Awesome Too On The Excalibur!

Your digital clock looks very good on the Excalibur also, excellent work.......!

Can we throw a twist in this LCD look with...lets say a red or purple LCD time? (depending on the background pic....different color time would be nice)

That's What I'm Talking About

Thanks again for all your hard work. This makes the clock look even better!

Color to LCD
Anyone???
Can we change the color of the LCD from white to whatever color we want?

very cool

Just Gotta Say...
This rules. I really like the ease of adding this feature too!!

mine doesn't work. downloaded, install the cab, restart, and ntohing changes.

kavana thank you so much have only just installed Kavana 080408 and it's so sweet this tops it off, Bruv
Any chance of you making this with the forte font? Would look so sweet.
Have included font in case it helps.

I really liked the LED font, but I found that it really screwed up fonts elsewhere on the phone -- Opera, CHome Weather Settings...
Is there a way for the Clock Font Change and everything else to co-exist?

Yes. Try this: Transfer "Tahoma" font from your PC to your device. Place the font in the \Windows folder and rename it to "aatahoma". Reboot your phone. Afterwards, the default font that those programs detect should be Tahoma instead of the LED font.

I have to say that "Forte" font is one ugly mutha of a font !!

Windows Fonts Inquiry
I checked the Fonts folder under \Windows and did not see any. I would like to change the clock font to that of an LCD screen/alarm clock. I believe I have found where to change that in registry but I'm wondering if I can just drop some fonts from my PC onto the phone and just go.

what font are you trying to use? Are you editing your CHome_320x240.cpr and dropping your .ttf file on your windows directory

Take a read http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=434858
You don't say what ROM your using the difference if your using Rose ROM the .cpr will be called HTCSlidingPanel or SlidingPanelMedia "if i remeber correctly lol" depending on the homescreen your using .cpr.
The more info you give the easier it is to help.

Windows Phone 7 Font {Segoe WP} Series

If you installed Visual Studio 2010 on your PC, you can simply go to "C:\Windows\Fonts\" dirctory..
and select this Family Font "Segoe WP" which stands for Segoe Windows Phone.
And this font is useful for themes devs and apps devs to create a real WP7 theme or app.
For those who do not have VS2010, simply download the attached file.

Thanks for sharing this

very nice, thanks

Thanks - this is exactly what I was looking for!

any chance you could just zip up the fonts vs. having an exe file? thanks

here you go!

Awesome, thanks for this. Now to muck around changing system fonts on my HD2..

Of course you don't, because you must install also Visual Studio Express For Windows Phone, it's free @ Microsoft.

Yea, but how to change the fonts from the standard one?
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App

how do you change the font sizes in WP7 , I posted this in another thread ,but maybe you guys know, in contacts , the font color is the same as the tile color , can I change the font color in contacts and still have a different tile color , also the size of the font in contacts is so small you need reading glasses to see it, where in the registry can I change the sizes?

These are taken from windows ce , same location, not sure what is what yet
System HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\GDI\SysFnt
Menu bar HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\GWE\Menu\BarFnt
Pop-up menu HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\GWE\Menu\PopFnt
Out of Memory window HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\GWE\OOMFnt

Isn't this font identical to Segoe UI, the primary UI font for both Windows Vista and 7, which you therefore certainly already have on your system?

[Aug 20][FONT][CWM] Fonts *Edited & Matched Typefaces* [Taking Requests]

ORIGINAL JELLYBEAN FONT MODDED FOR REGULAR/BOLD
ONLY FOR ICS BASED ROMS - PLEASE TAKE BACKUP OF /system/fonts IF YOU WANT TO RESTORE LATER !!!
Update Aug 16 - Taking user requests for custom fonts !
Update Aug 17 - Added iStok Web Font
Update Aug 20 - Added Roboto (Standard Edited & 80% size option)
Update Aug 20 - Added Roboto Condensed (Standard Edited & 80% size option)
I have edited the original JellyBean font file to include the same font as Bold instead of the Roboto. It makes the interface very clean and consistent across all apps.
There are multiple versions of the font packs (see screenshot links).
The same regular font has been used to create the Bold font hence the consistency.
Just flash away and enjoy ! If this helped you, dont forget to Thanks :good:

Jellybean Fonts have been updated for Italic/BoldItalic to be the same base now !

I would love a smaller version of the default ICS/Sense 4.1 font...
(Even when set to 'small' it just isn't quite small enough for me...
Would this be possible?
When compared to the JellyBean font, the iStok font looks smaller in the screenshots you posted.
Is the iStok font really smaller?

Here is Roboto with 80% size ... Let me know if this looks about right, then I'll work on it.
Updated image with Roboto Condensed font as well ... you pick

Actually, I like them both!
The reason I would like a smaller font, is because I want to really benefit from the huge display on the One X. Both the 80% and the condensed font seem to achieve this. :good:
Would it be too much to ask you to please provide a preview of the Roboto Condensed at 80%? (Why not have the best of both worlds?)

I managed to create a fully functional update.zip.
It's tested and working, but please test for yourself too...
I attached an example with the Roboto Condensed font at 80% you created.
@v-b-n: Feel free to edit the script to show the correct font name. You can even replace my name if you want to...
If you want, I can attach the following scripts too:
- Roboto Condensed (100%)
- Roboto Original (100%)
- Roboto Original (80%)

BTW:
I installed the Roboto Condensed 80% font and I like it a lot!
(Used my own update zip of course )
Here's some screenshots:

Actually the zips I created were all fixed already ... I forgot to remove that comment from the OP... thanks anyways

vector color icons

hey guyz.,
i just wanted to see colored icons on my windows phone, so i started working on it.
but two months back i got an android phone and now i'm too busy.,
i colored few icons(you can see the result in attached images).
so if any of you are interested please color the remaining icons and share.
thank you

@Sai Chrisna, I can tell you truly (nothing personal): if these icons was built in original WP UI, I'll never buy that "colorful" junk
Colored icons actually adds nothing to UI, but color scheme you've used looks really ugly.

Yea i know, i'm really bad at adding proper colors and that was also one of the reasons i shared the file here,
That was just a test file and we can always change colors
And i don't know why you didn't like it but all my friends liked it when i showed them

Sorry for the noob question but how do you change the icons on mobile ?

On interop unlocked phone with full file system access,
* Paste the ttf file in windows \fonts
* Edit the following path HKLM\software\microsoft\windows NT\current version\fonts

Maybe 'cause I have a "sense of style"? You know, the really good icons (or any miniatures) creation requires a lot of stuff; you can't just colorize vector graphics and get a good result.
From my point of view, one of a great advantages of the "Metro UI" is a simplicity and brevity, and colors are not a part of the whole idea.
As for your friends: all people are different (and it's good of course!), many young guys are using naked gals pics or "Pokemon" themes for their handsets but I'm not of this kind :laugh:

If you haven't observed.,
I did not just add colors, i re-edited almost all the main icons, except for the "apps" icon that recently appeared on creators update.
I understand you've got that same old sense of style as Microsoft., No offense, but what's wrong? why don't you keep calm if you are not interested...
There are some people like me who use "third party themes & icons" on desktop and want to apply the same concept here on phone.
Don't post your personal opinions and discourage people who are interested in doing something cool.

perfect ?
but i dont like the android icons
look like setting icon or sim card

A tecnical question
Witch app is used to edit this colored font file ?

Please help me..... I want to replace with original file

@sensboston
they are good looking icons even if not your style. have you produced any? lately?

@esgibtnur1, they aren't good: bunch of different styles, bad color gamma, not relevant images (to icon's meaning).
As for "have you produced any?": I'm not an artist (but I have a good sense of style) but one of my app tiles ("Voice Translator") was selected by Microsoft to appear on the gift card.

Android UI font

Hi, I have a quick question for all of you. We know that Roboto is the standard font that we need to use for our Android App. Google Material design specification mentions about Roboto font.. I would like to know can designer/developer use different fonts like Open Sans, sans-serif etc for designing the android UI. Could you please suggest how to use different fonts for Android design? Does it break any rules or does it work in every android screen density? Is it mandatory to use the Roboto font?

Hi,
I read your query and would like to share my experience regarding the fonts used in Android applications. Roboto is the standard font because its visual effects are nice on the device but, it doesn't make it a mandatory choice while app development. You may go for whichever font suits your application until it doesn't make the app interface messy. Also, while choosing the font, you should not try to opt for multiple varieties of styles for a single application. One font style is enough to make app text clear and effective.
Thanks.
