[Q] Text in IE Way Too Large! - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have the TMOUSA Leo, but I assume the IE is the same in both versions.
Whenever I open a web page in that pocket IE, the text is GIANT, so very little fits on a page. I have to use the zoom bar to reduce the text size so I can read more.
I looked under View, Text Size, and set it to smallest. Didn't make a bit of difference, a page always opens with the same giant text size.
How can I fix this problem? A registry tweak?
(Note--I don't really want smallest, just a normal size. I just set to smallest to try to counter the giant text, but it didn't change it at all.)

I do have Uzard installed, and Skyfire, and three versions of Opera, but that is all absolutely besides the point.
Your reply had absolutely nothing to do with my question (are you promoting that product?), which is quite rude.

Adding notes to side of pdf?

Wondering how I could add notes to the side of a PDF. As in the area on the PDF itself is cluttered and full so adding notes directly on it isn't possible (attached a screenshot to show what I mean). Would love to be able to add an area to the side of each page to add notes (so push the actual page over to the left and have the right area for notes)
So any app capable of this? or anyway to add some extra blank area to the right of all my PDF pages which would allow me to put freewriting and text boxs on it?
Try sign my pad from the Market. I believe it has what you're looking for.

hmmmm, not sure if it fits the bill. Looking at it in market seems to only be for signing pdfs and not so much note taking/annotating.
I have the program, it does allow you to add text/notes to the PDF.

Interesting. Do you have ezpdf? are the annotating options similar to what you could find there?
No I dont have ezpdf so I cant compare the two, sorry.
No prob, thanks for the suggestion.
Just downloaded it for a test run and doesnt seem like its a viable option. Even importing and organizing my pdfs would be a huge pain and it keeps a portrait sized view even in landscape mode, along with other things.
Sorry it didn't work out for you.
hah i'm a med student too... i know exactly waht you're looking for. re-print the pdf's in adobe from your computer.
on adobe acrobat x for pc:
open up pdf in adobe (or any other pdf viewer i guess)
print to adobe pdf
under page handling, page scaling: multiple pages per sheet
select 1 by 1 or 1 by 2, etc whatever you want for margins. this should give you a margin on each side of each slide. play around with these features to get what you want, if possible.
there should also be an option to print the notes lines to the right of the slide when you print. either that or it's a powerpoint feature.
as for actual note-taking on the TFP, try ez pdf or repligo reader. the sticky notes work if all else fails, but text boxes should work on the sides there.
if only the pdf apps had callout boxes... :\

Awesome thanks! this looks very promising.
I am using expdf for notes (or at least plan to at this point) but I have found my text boxes and free hand annotations won't show outside the pdf's "image". If in your way I can basically extend the right side of the image as a blank area that would be amazing! The stickies look like they will work but it would definitely be nice to be able to read the notes while still able to see the slide.
Going to give this a shot and report back soon.
edit. looks like I need to get adobe acrobat x since I only have adobe reader. Will give this a shot tomorrow. I am assuming standard is fine for this task?
I use stickies with repligo reader. I find it to be much faster, ezpdf lags on page turns while repligo is super smooth.
Sent from my Galaxy S2
So playing around with it I think I found an even better way to do it.
Instead of doing the multiple page option what I did was put page scaling to None
Then unchecked auto-rotate and center
then went into page setup and changed the paper from letter to legal.
This puts the image competely on the left hand side with a large margin on the right hand side for notes (although I could see sometimes wanting margins on both sides for maybe taking notes and putting arrows to things in the slide, but just check auto-rotate and center and then you will have 2 smaller margins on each side, with little space on top)
So this way is pretty sweet because it gives you the large margin on the right side for notes, plus the aspect ratio is basically the same as the primes screen!
But there is a bit of an oddity with this process right now. When I saved it, it saved and all my slides were upside down. They were in the right order but all were upside down for some reason. Figure this should be able to be fixed somehow (tried rotating the page in adobe acrobat and then "printing" but that didn't work, guessing there's something I need to change in the printer settings). And even if not you can rotate 180 degrees in ezpdf easily enough (which puts the margin on the left side, not a big deal).
Thanks again for the heads up, this is really going to help taking notes on this thing!
edit. if there is some way to ungray that margins box in my first attached pic, then could maybe even modify it some more.

I would prefer to not use stickies if at all possible just because it would be nice to see my notes right beside the slides as opposed to only being able to see one or the other, just like if I was doing it by hand.
I checked out repligo and while it does seem faster then expdf and it doesn't seem to have a good way to organize a bunch of different classes lecture notes within it. Also the toolbar to select either a free note or text box etc keeps hiding itself and I don't see a setting ot keep it up (and even then have to go through a pull down menu to select one).

I would recommend mantano reader free, it allows heaps of options, i specifically use the highlight option, which you can then add a sticky to... Give it a go and see if you can use it
Oo, thought i couldnt add pics, anyway... here you are
This reader is really not laggy at ALL! which is great for my large texts...

Thanks I will check it out. Ezpdf really isn't that bad for lagging (although haven't opened up any super big pdf's on it yet), and it is really nice and easy for highlighting, sticky notes, text boxes, free hand and everything like that which is awesome. But ill check out mantano and see how that one stacks up!

Its grayed out and not letting me manually change them. Not sure how to ungray them so I can do that, or if there's any other place to do it.
Would be nice to use that, but really just changing the page size to legal and pushing the image over to the side looks like it will be just fine for me. Gives a good sized blank space to the right for any notes

The only custom size option is somehting like "post script custom size" option and it somehow doesn't allow me to choose any sizes or margins which is weird.
Just figured this out. Download foxit reader and under print, select Custom Scale and print to like 75%. #Win.

[Q] Can't get text to wrap properly on browsers

I'm coming from a Samsung Droid Charge which offered no option to choose font size (tiny, small,normal, large etc.). On that phone I downloaded an app which allowed me to adjust the font to whatever percentage I was comfortable with (chose 120%). After that, all the browsers, and most sites, allowed pinch and zoom. I could easily obtain a readable font (for me), and the browsers and sites, immediately adjusted their layout so that the text wrapped around almost perfectly, almost all the time.
Here I am with the SG4, 4.2, (not rooted and afraid to try). It offers a choice of font sizes and I chose large. NONE of the browsers I'm using adjust easily and well to wrapping around and they do not offer the wonderfully adjustable pinch and zoom. I can't read most things on the web without squinting or scrolling horizontally because the wrap is for a wider font. I no longer have the pinch/zoom option. The app I used to use to adjust the size of the font, and a few other apps I've tried, have no effect anymore. My present browser choices are Chrome Beta, Opera Beta, the stock browser and UC Browser.
So I have a nice large high resolution screen on which to read, but I cannot find a way to make the text conform to the width/size of the screen and I can't read on it very well at all. I used to comfortably read about 2 hours/day on the Droid Charge and was expecting to do at least as well.
Suggestions? Help?
Thanks.

I came from the charge to. Dont hesitate on rooting. Its just as easy. Follow the root guide. Its too easy and takes 10 min.
Boat browser has a text wrapping option in the settings.
I also suggest Boat Browser. Had it since I had the S3 and moved on to the S4.

I never rooted the Droid Charge but did become very skilled at cursing and at finding apps to do a lot of what it wouldn't do and hadn't even thought of.
If I root the SG4, shouldn't I wait until all the "best" chip flashes are settled? And until I understand more about rooting. Is there a good description of what you get when you're done? I know I'd "lose" all the unwanted Verizon apps and Samsung apps. Would I also "lose" the Google apps, most of which I don't want? And could I keep the things I do like or do they all go?
As you can see, I'm nervous about it. Funny, I can take apart a computer, replace a motherboard etc., but I guess I feel I really don't understand how the phones work as well as I understand computers, drives etc.
Thanks for your encouragement and I may reach that point sooner than I know
You can re add apps you dont want, with hyperdrive rom ota he has all those apps ready for download and install. There is a video that explains it and u cannot fail if u follow the directions. I get nervous everytime but when its done, i dont ever know why i was nervous in the first place lol. If it messes up, u can flash back to stock just as easily. Its hard to actually hard brick a phone. As long as it powers into download mode, u are good to go

S-Notes versus LectureNotes

So I noticed on my note 3 that S-Notes is way better than it was on the Galaxy note 10.1 and Galaxy Note II. There are more useful templates and more useful features (mainly, syncing with more services like dropbox and evernote).
As people get more experience, can anyone tell me which service they prefer? I'm split because I prefer LectureNotes for its power and the Cornell Note-taking template. But the S-note app is better integrated into touchwiz and has more powerful options now with automatic evernote and dropbox syncing.
For me i think it will be down to the S-note's ability to flawlessly import pdf's and annotate it

For that purpose I think EzPdf is way better than S-Note, at least if you want to make a workflow of annotated pdf's.

what do you mean when you say annotate, because honestly lecturenotes does it flawlessly. you can import and then write on it, type on it, draw on it, insert pictures on it, basically everything you can do on a normal blank paper.

i've never used the widget before, but i'm going to fix that right now and fill you in.
ok:
i'm just assuming here but still; i'm gonna assume that S-note has a widget where if placed on a homescreen you can simply type in without opening the app itself. lecturenotes from the few tests i just made can't do that. you can either have a "widget" (really an app icon) that can open to a particular page that you specify or you can have one that just opens lecturenotes, i see nothing that would allow you to edit without opening the app itself. definitely not something worth dedicating a homescreen to....

I got frustrated with S Note and ditched it. I'm using Lecture notes now and really like it. The main thing that killed S Note for me was the way the notes were organized. Felt very cumbersome and non-intuitive. I wish they had left the UI for browsing folders and notebooks the same. Or maybe I just had too much trouble transferring my old notes into it.
Anyways I was wondering if anyone knew how to quickly expend a single page in lecture notes. I know I can go into the settings and change it that way, but I'd like to be able to do it on the fly and on a page by page basis instead of a global modification of the page length.

I'd imagine you just select the marker tip with whatever color, then change the opacity between 10% and 40%. Whatever you're comfortable with. At least that's how I had done it in the old 10.1 model.

to expend a page? you wanna know how to quickly use up a page? don't understand what you're asking but i'll cover a few bases.
to quickly add a page click the "+" on the top right or if you're using a keyboard just press the down arrow.
to delete a page you click onto the page and open menu and delete it from there. deleting isn't as simple as adding unfortunately..
@ChrisNee1988: There is no built-in highlighter, as tastes concerning highlighters differ widely. As described by gina$zanboti, you can make one of the custom pencils to act as a highlighter, choose your favorite color and width, an intermediate alpha, and enable `draws behind other colors´. To quickly change to the highlighter, you can show the pencil toolbox (select `Show pencil toolbox´ in the `pencil´ menu, can be moved around by click-and-hold and setup in the app's tools settings; a single click on a pencil sets the pencil and a double-click on a custom pencil brings up the custom pencil settings) or assign it to your stylus button (in case your stylus has a button).
@gina$zanboti: I am not entirely sure whether I understand correctly. LectureNotes' pages have a fixed size.
Does LectureNotes have handwriting to text conversion? I have been using MyScript Notes Mobile which does do this but it begins to get laggy after 2-3 pages in terms of the screen delay from writing to on screen. When I used LN, it's near instant which is awesome and I really like it overall but converting to text is really big as I export QC scripts a lot.
My problem with snote is that importing removes searchable test which is a big no-no for me. Otherwise I'd probably use it. I am using it for free hand notes and like it for that.
@TheBigSaxon: There is no handwriting recognition in LectureNotes, but there are several soft keyboards that provide this functionality (meaning that you write with stylus and the keyboard app does as if you typed it).
tstsubi the
So, if your main storage for notes is Evernote, what is recommended as the front end for capture of notes, including handwriting recognition. Don't want to get locked into s note or lecture notes for the actual storage - just looking for advice on the best way to recognise handwriting, capture info etc, and sync seemlessly into Evernote.
any thoughts?

Yes, there is a portrait template of ruled paper. Or you can use the default landscape ruled paper template, and then just rotate the tablet into portrait mode and it should rotate the page as well.

Here is my 2 cents in using snotes and others working with pdfs
Things I like about snote:
Keeps the use of pressure sensitivity. This is something very special about our spens and I like the feel. I want to keep it when I'm writing.
This might sound stupid but this makes the writing feel the most realistic and not so machine like.
Once I'm in the editing mode I stay in the editing mode. Unlike ezpdf and lecturenotes where I have to hit the pen to start writing again and hand/back to scroll. I found this really annoying. For people annotating it may not be an issue but if you're actually taking notes and such it's a pain.
All the other special tricks with spen work in snotes well because it was made for it.
Negatives:
It has to import pdfs...This was the worst. It can't just open it as a pdf and start editing. Probably creating image type files. Not sure how lecturenotes imports pdfs because it's not available for the trial version. I imported a 200+ page pdf and it took longer than expected but now that
I have an expected time frame I may be able to deal with it.
Since it's not keeping the integrity of the pdf it can screw up some things while importing.
I'm a math guy and it screwed up a few notations here and there.
Scrolling...call me lazy but continuous scrolling is beautiful. Although I didn't like the fact that you can't be in between pages in ezpdf. While scrolling and you let go the page will automatically place itself so you see either the previous page or next page on the screen (depending on how far you let the split go past the screen).
Snote's scrolling is swipe or hit arrow right at bottom of screen. Swipe right is too slow. Animations are nice but unnecessary when turning the page. I usually like keeping the writing area in the middle of the screen. Also a reason why I want to be able to put the bottom of the page in the middle. But my hand being in the middle i think its annoying to go down to hit the right arrow. Just me being an annoying *****.
Hope this helps someone out there. =)
Edit: realized I was missing the add on to import pdfs for lecturenotes.
With short use it has a lot that I wanted. Now I dont know what I should use...
Edit 2 played with settings and im purchasing it now
@aznxkpx88: There is no need to alternate between `pencil´ and `hand´ mode in LectureNotes: You can scroll/zoom outside the `hand´ mode if you enable `allow two fingers scrolling/zooming´ in the app's input settings. Since you seem to use an S-pen (in which case you should enable `use stylus (hardware detection)´), you can also enable `allow one finger scrolling´ and scroll with one finger.
The constrain on the maximal number of pages per notebook in the trial version applies also to PDF imports.

Messages app - change font size?

Using the Samsung Messages app on my Verizon S9+, I am unable to permanently change the font size in the actual conversation screen. Yes, you can pinch to shrink and expand font size but that gets reset to standard size every time (unlike on the S7 Edge where it remembered your size preference).
Through Settings, you can globally adjust font size but the only Messages screen this affects is the main Conversation screen which shows all conversations. Once you click on a conversation, normal font size is presented. Frustrating for my old eyes...
UPDATE: Ironically, when you adjust Font Size in Settings, if you swipe the sample screen above the sliders, it shows you a sample Messages screen and the font size does change in the sample, but it does NOT change in the actual Messages app. Sounds like a bug to me as they are depicting what I want to do, just doesn't work.
I'd like to use the stock app as it has some features that are unique. There must be a way to change the font size so the setting is persistent, no?
Seeing the same also. Hard for my aging eyes to see.
And also finding it doesn't follow the global setting for size. Same as you.
Same issue. I don't think you can change the font size just for the Message app.
I when back to my beloved and trusted Textra SMS app.
It changes when you change the font size in display settings font.

As I mentioned in my post, this is not true. On my phone, changing the font size in display setting ONLY affects font size in the main Conversations view. Once you click on an actual conversation, the font size returns to the default tiny size.
You can get a newer version on apkmirror.com but it wont allow updating samsung apps for some reson. Anyone have the latest version of messages signed by samsung that will install?
They need ro bring back the S8 messaging app which has this inbuilt feature to adjust text. Wonder, why they ripped off that useful feature.

Hopefully Samsung will acknowledge this bug and release a new version of the app. Clearly the global Font Size Setting is supposed to do exactly this.
Same thing. Very frustrating

It's really not that hard to pinch zoom. Takes a half second. Sure, it'd be nice if it would stick but, c'mon man.
I had a problem with the Background colors in the Messaging ap - some of the themes I like to use are really awesome but when I get to the messaging ap, they used yellow fonts on a white background - nearly impossible to read. I either have to use a different messaging ap entirely (Mood is a pretty good one I found that has TONS of customization options) or just guess at what was written - or change themes.
It's dissapointing that I can't change the balloons or fonts in the messaging ap any more - would be nice if we could - and change font size too - so for now, I am using the MOOD messaging ap and while I prefer the Samsung Stock one better - Mood isn't bad at all.
Its not only internal Messages app, Viber and Hangouts has really small font in input line. Tried increasing font size, tried toying with DPI settings. No idea why its like that and only affecting text input lines, but hope some later update could fix that?
Hi Everyone..I just got the 9 plus and the messaging app is different than it used to be. It is just blue bubbles with white background. It wont let me change anything like before and the setting the background wallpaper for messages is no longer there....is that how everyone else's is?
I also switched to Textra for the all of the customization that it offers. It's a free download so I gave it a try and I've stuck with it since. Just my 2¢

I think you mean, "It should work the way I want it to work." It IS working as designed. It's just that you don't like the new design.
That's not to say that I don't agree that it would be better if we could choose a persistent font size. I do.
But we're talking about a split-second pinch out to increase the size.
A split-second.
So, yeah... C'mon.

Thousands of people having to take a split-second to adjust for a design bug every single time? No. You're missing the point.

Samsung Notes Handwriting to Text

I love the new feature although when it converts your writing to text it makes the text large like a childrens book, is there any way to change this as it makes it unuseable.
If you type in Samsung notes the text is small and a normal note taking app. then you change to S-Pen and write a note and convert it to text and you can't even make it as small as the text size from when you use the keyboard. Seems like an awesome feature not very well executed.
Anyone have a different experience

I haven't figured out a way to change the default font size of 20 but after I convert the handwriting to text I can tap on the first word, then select all. Once all is highlighted then I have a font size option. Certainly not ideal! Just got this Tab6 so still looking for answers.
