Going Blind With Small Font On Caller Id 8525
I KNOW there are NUMEROUS 8525 users out there who find it difficult (really difficult in the case of my wife and I) to read the incoming caller ID name and number. The existing font option does not affect the phone. Has anyone been able to come up with a way to make these fonts (and those in some other areas of the phone) easier to see? I would PAY for a fix to this. (t's so bad that my wife is already checking out the Blackberry 8310.)
Thanks.

Hello, I have a very poor vision and sometimes I can hardly read the ID of the incoming caller in my MDA PRO.
When I used my old Qtek 9090, the "caller ID" application let you decide the text size, now this feature is integrated in outlook, but I found no way to adjust this parameter...
Of course I have put the OS text size to its maximum, but I'd bette have it a little bigger..
Can you please help me? thanke
If I'm not mistaken, an application such as Tweaks2k2 can change the default font, although I'm not sure about the font sizes.
I know that Nyditot's rotate program has a nifty setting that will allow you to change the font size, exactly like the appearance tab in Windows. Bit much to buy the program just for that option, though.

Thanks a lot for answering, unfortunately none of the two applications is what I'm looking for, Nyditot magnifies the screen indeed, but I wish I had something only affecting the "dialer" aspect, in order to easily read the caller's number or name with a glance, Regarding the other application or pages I'd better levae them as they are..
I suppose there is something to tweak in the registry, or a "skin modifier" for the dialer, but I did not find anything like that so far..
for all the rest I love this PDA, I would neve go back to something without a real keypoard and such a wonder connectivity...

Wow!!!!! God bless you

very valuable sugestion, thanks!
Something i REALLY hate with Windows Mobile, is the complete waste of the display. Everything is written with tiny ugly font, instead of a big clear font (i know you can change font size, but that only applies to some few things).
On incoming calls, theres LOTS of space to display caller id/name, but no, it only displays it with a tiny font leaving 90% of the dialog with white pixels, so it's impossible to see it if you have your phone mounted in your car.
Does anyone know if it's possible to change fonts size of the incoming call dialog, or some third party application that replace the entire screen?
I tried a search, but i don't really know what I should search for?

If you want something for PICTURES of contacts of incoming calls, you could try ProPhotoContacts, I use that a little and it just displays a large pic of the caller and some info ( you can choose between business style, personal, or just name and number to be displayed.)
If you just want larger text, idk what you could use for that, but there are many good 3rd party contacts apps that do what you are looking for.

I don't want pictures - i just want the number/name to be readable from 1 meter distance - so i guess i need some 3rd party application to replace the default dumb dialog.
But i haven't found any, and i'm really not sure what keywords i should use? Have anyone found an appliaction like that?

That's a darn good ?. Even the pictures assigned to my contacts are too small to see who it is calling. Luckily I have different ring tones to each of my contacts, I know who's calling by the ring tone.
I remember there was an app for Symbian that allowed for full screen caller ID pictures. Don't remember which one it was... my last Symbian phone was the Pana X700 and I stopped using that back in summer of '05 when I discovered the Blue Angel.
But there's got to be something for WM as well. Have you checked all the freeware sites?
there's been a thread within the wizard forums about this app that changes the caller id bubble and is very customizable. Im gonna go look for it, and if I find it Ill report back

check that out, scroll about 1 or 2 pages down it shows a screenshot of a diff bubble. that is your software sir!
Anybody Know?
I was wondering if anyone knew how to magnify just the picture of who is calling. That link above is great but it has all these additional features that i'm not interested in...i think my phone might explode if i put more softwares like that on it. I just want to be able to make the picture of incoming calls large. I have photo contacts pro and I don't like it. When an unknown caller is calling then it's completely useless...more importantly it doesn't recongnize callers from your sim card...that is why i stopped using it....if anyone knows that would really make my day
You could always make a jpeg with big bold letters of the contacts name and save it to their photo contact...
Hi there,
I am hoping to find just a few rare tweaks for my Diamond, here they are:
1. Anybody ever though of (can't believe nobody did) a tool for left-handed users? Specifically, a.o.:
- WM vertical scrollbar displayed on the left not on the right
- In TF3D, the People tab, the slide-out bar to display some of my favorites is on the right and not on the left. Sliding with left hand is no good because the palm covers the screen.
2. Is there any way to transfer contacts with non-ASCII symbols from htc memory to SIM?
3. Managing text messages. Once you browse Inbox and single click on a message it displays along with the keyboard. What makes big sense once you want to send a message is useless for reading messages. Any way to rid the screen of it? How about the font used to display the message. Which registry variable sets it?
4. How about SMS channels be displayed on today screen? It is possible to add the channel but not display it.
regards
With regards to #3, can't you just tap the keyboard symbol at the bottom-center of the screen to make it disappear?
I sure can, but tell me one reason to do it?

mmmm sorry I have no answer for this..... I see you are using Dutty 3.8 he now has 3.9 which is very good maybe just try a new ROM and test the dialer before installing anything else.......hope that can help
Hi guys,
How do you change the text size when reading an SMS in "Traditional Mode".
The text is very small and I'd like to have it at a medium size.
Attached the screenshots.
Thanks a lot for your help.
I dont think there is a definitive answer for this. If you search this forum you will see that a few people have posted with the very same issue (myself included). There was only one guy who bothered to post a possible solution but i couldnt follow what he was saying.
When you change font size under settings it doesnt change font size for Sense Messaging but it does change it for email.
I wrote to HTC about it and they basically gave me the run around.

So there's nothing out yet for fixing this?
As far as i am aware no.
Write to HTC customer support to see if they are any more helpful.
If i recall correctly i wrote in and they replied back saying there was no fix. I then said that they didnt care about any of their customers who had poor eyesight and they replied back with a stock "we do care and are looking into it" response.
maybe you will have more luck then i did.
while having any message open, press Menu then text size,you should have 5 sizes to chose from.

this way only change text size in conversation mode, not in traditional mode.
and then when you start a new conversation text size become smaller...
it's really a bad bug!

You are right. then it must be set in the registry or in the htc messages config files.
i will look at the files later on.

This helps when reading sms messages but its no good for typing them out =(
As i said above... HTC seem to be ignoring this. Its quite a bad bug imo.
