Increase FONT SIZE of SMS in MESSAGING tab? - Touch HD General

My number one request is to INCREASE the FONT SIZE of SMS messages in the TouchFlo 3D MESSAGES TAB.
It's a great tab but the font size is too small for my eyes to read.
I've tried MUN zoom but it doesn't work properly.
I've also searched hi and low for a way to edit but no one seems to know how.
A registry tweak would be best but I can't find an option in there.
PS. It used to be too big on Diamonds so they over compensated and made it too small on the HD. It might be 'just right' on the next touch phone HTC invents!

Have you tried changing the font size under Settings...System...Screen?

have you tried using HD tweak? that gives you an option to change the system font size as well as the messaging font size. i found the standard fonts too small. this one works fine.

Q. Are you sure you used 'HD Tweak' to change the font size?
I can't find this setting in HD Tweak 0.5.4 (latest v).
If so, Under which heading in HD Tweak is it?
If not, which tweaking app did you use?

Yes, but this doesn't effect TouchFlo 'Messages Tab' SMS font size.

I too would like to know if this is possible. I cant see anything in Tweak HD that works.

This is also something I would like to know, the font is simply too small for such a big screen. I know Duttys Diamond Roms had the zoom feature but nothing on the HD so far...

me too ...
the font size is too small ...
and then ...
i fond in here ManilaMods from mun_rus (powered by D-MAN)_upd.09/11/08
it works on HD ...
so...

Thanks heaps...Have you tried it on the new Manilla (v3)?

i would like to know if this is possible as well thanks/

How to change the font size of Windows Live Today plugin?

I'm an O2 Xda Atom Life user and I'm using the ROM Xda_Atom_Life_WM6_CHT_RC2140907B2. I have a problem with the Windows Live Today plugin, 'cause the fonts are too large and they use a lot of space of the Today page. How can I change the size of fonts of this plugin? I have checked the registry but I could find no way to do so.
I don't know whether this only happens in the CHT Atom Life or not, so I decided to put the thread here...
Thanks if anyone has ideas with it.

HKLM/Control panel/Stylus>96DPI....Current Font...I have large fonts and set at 1100. For smaller fonts, set lower than 1100...soft reset.
Thanks a lot^^!
But this will change some of the font size of the system at the same time...
Anyway thanks for the solution!

The hack should affect homescreen fonts only. There are other hacks for the system fonts.
Change Font for whole system
How do you change font size for the whole system?

No, I found that some font size of the system programs is smaller after hacking, e.g. Message Centre, Windows Live, words in Office Mobile programs...
But never mind, I love the font size after changing...
I've also found that the option of "Settings==>System==>Screen==>Fonts Size" changed after hacking... It seems that the registry hacking is not really necessary...?

Read my thread" Words and sentences large enough to be seen and read easily" this forum. The thread has the tweak and screenshots to change the system fonts.

Fonts too small when installing hand.cab

I installed the hand.cab (handwriting cab) from somewhere on xda. However, the system fonts (soft keys, menu items etc) all seem to small (fonts within things like the SMS and email seem about right but that might be because I have large selected). I have gone into HTC Tweak and the Advanced Config software and changed the font to large but no joy. Although I didn't like the font that came with the HD that much, it was the correct size.
Any idea on how to make the 'system' fonts appear larger or is this an issue with the HD resolution.
try this one.
It worked on my HD
cool thanks mate
what is the font used in this cab? i would just like to install the font. thanks

That made no difference. Soft reset too.
It's a good question though. I don't often recieve text messages would fill the screen so a bigger font would be nice.

This only increase the font size of the official SMS software. I refer to the font size of the SMS text that is displayed inside the Message Tab of TouchFLO 3D. The suggested method has no effect on the font size for TouchFLO.

That's what I'm after too. It would make so much sense.
I spent hours trying to find a way to Increase the sms size in touch3d (it's too small for my eyes).
the only thing I found easy mun zoom for diamond BUT it doesn't work on hd. if u zoom, it only the font won't change until u scroll to another message. and it doesn't remember ur zoom preferences if u change to another touch3D tab
I think the reason the fonts are so tiny is bc they've over compensated for them being too big on diamond .
I scoured the registry for a font string associated with the messages tab but couldn't find 1.
would love to fix this problem, please help

Comfirmed SMS Tweaker 1.5 has no effect. Only the official SMS software font will change.

Can´t change font size

In SETTINGS - PERSONALISATION there is an option to change the font size. No matter what I set it to it won´t change...I can see it change in the preview section when I move the slider from very small to very big but that´s all.
A friend of mine has a Leo too and on his device it works perfectly. When he changes the font size it affects some applications like the SMS font size...
My ROM Version is 1.48. Anyone an idea or does someone know the REG Key for changing the font size?

HTC Messaging - font too small !!!

It's only me that complain about the fact that in htc messaging fonts are really too small...
ok I know it's possible to increase fonts a bit when in conversation mode but if you start a new sms the size of the carachters is barely readable. And then sms' are really too mall in traditional mode...
it's no sense to display font for a reply in a certain size and for a new messagge (new recipient) in a smaller font size.
this is a bug!
any solution?
thanks!
