WM6 is a relief. Now the Ameo is worth its money. But I am irritated by the hudge font size I get when I read my email. At different places you ge a very big fontsize. How can I change this?

Go on Start-setting-system-screen. You should then see an option on the third tab for text size with a slider bar. Adjust this according to taste.

Any idea how to change the default font? (via registry) Been googling for ages and not found the answer.

I believe he meant the .tsk files and cab files for phone dialpad

He may have meant .tsk files, but he asked for posting themes, which encompases more than just wallpaper files.
As for dialpad cabs, yes, I knew that, but I don't use any custom dialpads, hence, I didn't post any.
hello victoradjei
yes! I want to .tsk file on X7500,
thank you
Ok, if thats all you really want, just type into google 'vga ppc wallpaper' and you should get more hits than you could shake a stick at. Probably thousands of .tsk files to choose from.
that's definetly not true (thousands), and if you have realvga on your athena then most vga wallpapers (part of the theme) won't work properly. so you have to look for realvga themes.
Your right, it's probably many, many thousands. And who said anything about realvga??? You are the first.
If you have WAD, you'd be able to use ANY wallpaper you want, no matter the size, since you'd be able to stretch it (or shrink as the case may be). You wouldn't need .tsk files either. You could use png, jpg, gif, tga, etc..., and then it wouldn't be thousands of choices it would near endless choices.
Oh wait, you already can use jpg files. You just have to do it through the included photo viewer, so you can disable the transparency.
As for resolution, use your favorite pc photo manipulation software the change the image size, and/or convert to jpg, if needed and you don't have WAD. There, now your choices are near endless, and you don't even need to have WAD afterall.
Obviously, I'm sure you already knew all that, though.
there may be people who don't wanna ruin there system by installing WA, the biggest system break of all besides phonealarm and battery pack (my poor device)!!!!
and there may be users who don't wanna put a photo on the today screen when you hardly can read anything anymore.
and there may be people who are just looking for the htc theme and don't need anyone to tell them how they can find vga themes thorugh google (like the threadstarter).
and many thousands of vga themes? that just tells me how little you know about that and that you haven't searched at all!
I agree about WA, I hate it.
I found a simple Crossbow theme in this forum that has no photo, looks nice and works on the Ameo(Athena) ok. Just search for Crossbow Theme.
I also found a phone theme (cant remember where) that makes the T-Mob dialpad look nice again but I have a problem. Its very dark, and the text at the top is black!
Does anybody know the Reg Key to change the colour of font on the phone dialer?
I cant read the network or number etc.

Why don't you try searching first before pretending to know a thing or two, of which you obviously don't.
I found 243,000 pages relating to my search of VGA PPC Wallpaper. Yes 99% are rubbish (I'm sure a couple of dozen are not), but on just page ONE, I found 300-400 .tsk's in VGA, between websites. Now if you have something CONSTRUCTIVE to say, perhaps let the OP know where he may find the themes he's looking for, then post that. Otherwise, go sit in the back of the class and pay attention. You may learn something, yet.
Since you din't read my post well, I'll say it once again, you DON'T need WAD (I never even mentioned WA!) to install any wallpaper you want. Use the WM5 photo viewer to set the background image and remove transparency. You don't need to use a photograph (making it hard to see text as you put it), you can use ANY graphic file you find or make.
If one prefers not do these things, and is still intent on only using .tsk files, that fine, there are tons out there. So don't start causing problems. It seems I'm the only one who has even tryed to help out in some way, so far.

Hey mysticbluebmw,
Is that the box standard Advantage theme? Looks cool. Is it available from some vendor? What about the weather part?

Its a combination of software, including Wisbar Advance 2, Wisbar Advance Desktop (both by Lakeridge Software), SBSH Pocketbreeze, Phonealarm, and Weather Panel. There are some really impressive themes over at http://www.lakeridgesoftware.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=34. So far, no compatibility issues, lock ups, or anything. PM me if need any more info.

Thanks for the info. If I do migrate to that package and its themes I'd want to make sure I keep two features: 1) 3G indicator at top to confirm that type of connection, 2) Indications of each email account and number of unread messages. Any VGA themes you recommend that keep those features? Found one here but don't see either of the above: http://www.kolumbus.fi/anders.ruohio/wa/organizervga.html

1) To my knowledge, the 3G icon has not been identified seperately from other connections in any Wisbar skins. For me, I did not care, since I can't do anything about it anyway, but I can see if it were essential to find a 3G area, it would be needed to know.
2) I'm not sure whether phonealarm can do this or not. I vaguely remember reading posts about custom email alerts (didn't know what that meant then or now). The phonealarm forums are located athttp://www.pocketmax.net/smf/index.php
I wish you luck in finding what your looking for.

Nike/Touch Dual Font size.

Does anyone know what the reg settings are to increase the system fonts? I have searched, but the only thing I can find is tweaks2k2 and it does not work.
Thank you.
In the screen settings window, you can set the font size, but thats only the today screen and programs menu (as far as I know) but if you want to change the font size of the start menu or something like that then i cant help you.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GWE\Menu\PopFnt and

Ht=800 seems to be the default menu font size.

Thank you, but what number should I use to increase the size of the font? 900? 1000?
Thanks.
The short answer is yes - pick a number, see what happens. You'll need to soft reset after each change.

iCaller - simple CallerID app - alpha version 0.1.0.3

iCaller v0.1.0.3 alpha
Simple CallerID application which extends system default Incoming Call screen with full-sized pictures, additional contact information and fully customized interface.
Currently, it is an alpha version, which means that it may contain bugs and do not work correctly on some devices. Please give me the feedback, I'll be fixing issues.
You may get it also at my new home site
Features:
- Lightweight
- Expands default incoming call screen without affecting its behavior
- Full-sized contact picture
- Pictures can be stored on a Storage Card or in Pocket Outlook database
- Picture can vary for the same contact depending on its phone number (just name the picture with a number, e.g. 5554433.jpg)
- Customized interface based on HTML (using system HTMLView control, thanks for idea goes to mrproper)
ToDo:
- Screen lock functionality
- Speed improvements
- Bugfixing
Instructions:
- Unpack contents of the archive in a folder on your device, e.g. \Program Files\iCaller (do not forget to copy zlibce.dll too!)
- Check settings.ini - it is configured for English version of Windows Mobile OS, you may need to replace sSysCallerWndTitle option from 'Phone - Incoming...' to your localized name of system default Incoming Call window
- Launch iCaller.exe
For detailed instructions refer to readme.html
Note!
Stop and restart iCaller each time you modify the settings.ini file!
Thanks will test with manila about time just a simple fullscreen caller
Does not work with manila 2D as the manila caller id cuts Icaller out also the call delay is much worse on my 5-6 times before ring is herd ?

Haven't tested with Manila yet. Probably it will require modifying sSysCallerWndClass and sSysCallerWndTitle options in settings.ini to properly hide Manila CallerID. I'll investigate the delay issue too. Thanks for the feedback!
mmh, this is a feature that is build in s2u2 allready (runnes on any device, fullscreen), so where is the different if this is ready?
So this might only be usefull if there is really someone out there who does not use s2u2 , (maybe throttlelock users)

In fact, I've installed S2U2 and uninstalled it two days after, didn't like the weight and functional overload. So it's up to users to decide

Not to forget that iCaller works usefully on Smartphones whereas I, for one, have never gotten anything working with S2U2 on a Smartphone. Plus it's lightweight and since you're using the HTMLViewer that means it's also pretty configurable.
I've got a few ideas myself on themes for it...!

I assume you can put this in the startup drawer/folder or put a .lnk to it there to start this everytime the phone starts?

You say its customizable with graphics..Is this a whole skin/theme ability or just replacing already existing files ?
And is it possible to have gfx for tapped state as well ? And transparent PNG files ?
If so, I would be really interested in skinning it (once its stable and fast ^^).
And, maybe I get this wrong but what do you mean by "screen lock functionality" ?? Sounds like S2U2
regards,
Martin
mmh, its lightwight, of course because it has not much functions, so wait two weeks and we will see because it seems that there is a lock function coming too
The other thing is that you need this and a screenlocker application and a volume control application and and and. with s2u2 you can disable parts of programm. Just my thoughts about another calleer iD.
But maybe usefull for non touch devices or other lockers, as i said.
hey Schmidler, Oesterreich gehoert wieder zu Deutschland *kleiner Spass aus Bayern
Running it on ATT Tilt, stock 6.1 rom, with HTC Home Plugin. Works great so far. I like the HTML layout, it can be customized quite easily.
I have been looking for something like this for a while now, I'll test some more and report back.
yes, S2U2 already got a lot of functionality, but its true that it´s memory intesive.
[OFF-TOPIC] @bluemetalaxe: xD ja klar, Deutsches Reich nichwahr kennst ja hoffentlich http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wGPGSyCreJA [/OFF-TOPIC]
athis is exactly what I have been looking for for a long time!!!
огромное спасибо!
Going to try on my wizard to see how it works. hopefuly it will rescale my outlook contact photos to something more reasonable.
edit:
Here is a smaller picture for the no caller id.
it is saved as a 2color png in 8bits
weighs less than a kb as oposed to the 7kb in the one you posted.
(This should make a lot the difference with speed as well)

I'm not using S2U2 or ThrottleLock, and I do find this application could be very useful.

i have to agree with you.. S2U2 is heavy and pointless for some people. i don't use it and nor need it. I'll be using iCaller, no doubt about it.
thanks

I think that the big difference is that it is so lightweight.
You can have as many pictures as you want for your people on storage card without making PIMVOL as huge as mine (1.5mb) and only for few contacts!
can you immagine if I had pictures for ALL of my 200+ contacts??? that would probably add up to 5mb!
Hi Burt,
Installed on my HTC Touch on program files , but still getting the small screen with the picture on the background.
How do i get rid of the small old screen showing the number & get only the new full screen.
thx.
here is what happened on my wizard:
installed ran testcalled from a friends phone.
at the top of the screen I got 3 pictures (same ones from my outlook. under it the blue screen. under that the standard windows mobile bubble.
I think that there needs to be some kind of a scaling engine for outlook photos. at least double size. and the background needs to change from the scarry blue to a black or very dark grey.
looking forward to an update. thanks for trying to tackle a problem that many cant seem to care about

Arcsoft Font Size

Hello all, I've been searching high and low for how to change the font size in Arcsoft MMS. I recently flashed to 6.5 Build 21501 with PPC Kitchen and I can't find a way to adjust the size of the fonts when composing a message. I've changed everything I can find in nueFont to no avail. I've tried Arcsoft MMS v3 and v5 and I can't seem to change it in either.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Dustin
Here is a screenshot using Arcsoft 5.
Hmm...that screen doesn't show up on mine. I'm running the VZW version of Arcsoft MMS v5.0.70.24. What version do you have?
That screen only shows up in an MMS message in the text box.... Not sure where to change the SMS text size... probably in the registry......
azclown, thanks for the guidance. I did find that menu, but you're right, it doesn't change the SMS font size. Its only for MMS.
I checked the registry but didnt find anything particularly telling. I'm not quite skilled enough with PPC reg editing to go changing settings.
The thing thats frustrating is I know it was smaller in WM6.1. In fact, it might have even been editable by nueFont. Its not in WM6.5.
That's part of my MMS option while using Arcsoft ver 5.0.71.33 made for Alltel.
But I'm a little confused. Are you trying to change the font size in an MMS or SMS?

The SMS font size. I used to be able to read three or four messages at a time in the threaded mode, now I can barely fit one on screen because the font size is so huge.

Ah, ok. Easy solution. Go into a mail message (not MMS/SMS). Go to the Menu button (right soft key) -> View -> Text Size -> and choose an option. That should adjust for all of your messages (mail, MMS, etc). I'm not sure why the menu doesn't appear in the MMS messages, though. Hope that helps.
Heh, I wish it was that easy. I actually don't have that option. Lemme see if I can get an updated version and see if that works.
The only version I could find for VZW was the one that had been stripped out of the Treo 800w, but most things I read said it didn't work very well. Not sure I want to risk messing up my services just to decrease the font size. There's got to be some reg setting that'll fix this. Help me XDA!
dup post, sorry
Start/Settings/System/Screen tab at bottom for text size. It's pretty global in wm6.5 but works on sms,mms,email, and ie.

[Q] Font SIze Issue/Annoyance

Can anyone help me to change the font size on the Droid DNA? I have it set to Small but it is for sure NOT small at all!!!
Its driving me crazy. I know it seems silly with such a great phone, but the font is just TOOO big!!
If I use the All in One Kit what would I have to do to change the font size...
I am not a programmer by any means, but I know my way around a computer and can follow directions.
Thanks so much

Check under: Settings>Display & Gestures>Font Size to see what you have it set to.
Also, in messages you can actually pinch to make the text smaller and the opposite to make it bigger.
As far as I know, that's the only options we have so far (someone correct me if I'm wrong!).
THANK YOU SO MUCH!! All of the settings were set to small, but I tried the Pinch on the Messages screen and it WORKED like a Charm!! I am so much happier now.
I know it seems corny but I felt like i was a blind person the font was so large.
