Use "Xperia tewak" or "Advanced config" to increase the font size

you can change the popupfnt and menufnt seperately to the main font sizes.
and make them italic... although I like the new curly font from windows 7..

ah great! that solved my problem (popupfnt)
i never seen this option before.

I actually wrote a fix to change big fonts to small over here. You shall apply the registry fix reversed to get big fonts.

Carty..

One nice tweak for the Xperia

The menues in like Outlook are incredible small, use this tweak from the Diamond tweak thread to make them more finger friendly
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\system\gwe\menu\popfnt
and change the value for the "Ht" entry to "1000" decimal
Now I just need to change the startmenu for it is also incredible small - and the HTCenlargestartmenu cab available makes the start menu funny on Swedish OS. In English OS I am sure it will work fine and it also sets the menues bigger like in the regtweak above
Cheers! This is just the sort of thing we'll need once we start getting our X1's :]
You can make it a lot easier if you use SK-Tools. You can make a lot of changes including the font-sizes. No need for manual changes and it has a set-back-function, if I remember well. I used it for my G900 too, which has WVGA too at the same size

I must be blind, I have owned this app since years but i have not found how to change the startmenu size - must look harder
Start sk-tools, then tune-up, then got through the tabs at the bottom to fonts or so (after colours, sorry, I have the german version and don't know the english names), there the 8. point is menu-bar-font-size (or so). Play here and you see the start-menu grow But remember, it needs a softreset to get the new settings!

Found it but it does not change the size of the startmenu
What do you mean with the size of the start menu? If you make the font bigger, the start menu, using this font, gets bigger too. I have tried it and got a start menu up to nearly the width of the screen (much too big).

Advanced Configuration Tool worked for me:
Menu --> More Settings --> TFLO 3D ---> change date to "dddd d MMMM yyy" (or whatever format you want) and hit "change" then "OK". THe program may minimize by itself, so you can quit from task manager if that happens.
Hope it works for you, too.

Same here, whatever I try, it doesn't change the date format on the home screen.
I change the date format manually, by editing the manila file.
Works perfect.

which manilla file do you changed in order to modify the date format shown in today screen?
It depends on the language.
For English is 590ad244_manila
diamond tf3d config
diamond tf3d config for me was the solution

Hi,
I thought the question from first post was about showing Date at the level of Operator i.e Vodafone IT/TIM, and not changing date format under the clock?
TF3D config just changes date format under the Clock number, and does not push date up to Operator level or i'm going blind?
thx

On my (german) Toch HD I have only the short version of date, showing e.g. "17.12.08". Is it possible to include the weekday without installing advanced config tool?

4 Rows in 6.5 start menu

I have just installed the official 6.5 WWE upgrade. I want to change the honeycomb start menu to show 4 or 5 rows instead of 3. I have installed a couple of options from searching here but they do not not seem to work. Can anybody help?
yeah i too would also like to know this, having 4 icons per row looks much better in my opinion, and doesn't take as long to scroll to the bottom!
Same here, anyone??
Here! These are all some I have collected over here in this forum. Enjoy.
LCW is 5 columns in a row.
Any way we can get links to the threads to see previews on what these will look like??

just tried them out:
Ark_Hexagon 4 row.cab - gave a honeycomb style (with honeycomb outline)
WM6.5 Start Menu 4 7.cab - didn't work for me (however didn't soft reset so thats probably why lol)
BharS StartMenu Grid WVGA.cab - Is exactly what we were looking for, 4 icon wide start menu!
Thanks ai6908!

You have to SR after install in order for it to work.
Ark and LCW are honeycomb versions. Others do not have honeycomb in them.
Sorry no patience for screenshots yet...maybe when i get more time...

ISO-8859-1__Showaco All_Programsv4.1_4ICON.cab
does not work for me with WM 6.5 Sense 2.1, icons and letters are cut.
Is there another tool/cab?
Is it possible to remove the Start Menu Wall paper totally, I like to have a plain black background. I have been searching and googling for it, but it seems that so far none has posted anything on it. Not for the TF3D2, but just only the Start Menu background.
Can it be done?

Another tip?...
Try settings > all settings > personal > input then click on the bottom tab "Options" (it's not the same as the options box near the top!) and check what the "default zoom for typing" is - I have mine at 100%
Also check in settings > all settings > system > screen and click on the "text size" tab at the bottom where you can obviously adjust the text size

Something is wrong with the phone?... did not happen with Artemis rom or Telstra original's rom...
I hope some htc guru can help me with this!!
I'm getting frustrated about this issue.... can't believe there's not a solution to this problem... maybe not need a HTC Guru... I need an HTC Dalai Lama...

FolioWidget

0.4
it's a widget : add it to your deskop
tap on the clock the open the control menu
Resize this widget to something like 4*1
What's up ?
- VM heapsize tuning for better performances in big applications
- Wifi network SSID shows on the widget
- Change LCD density ( select new one and folio reboot with the new one, the trick is not permanent )
Like ever if you like click Thanks
I do this on top of my job so there's few chances i respond to personnal mp.
I'm sorry for the inconveniences but i'll try to read yours comments.
very good !
thank you !
any news for my requested app ? (shortcut to Account Sync)
Great!
Great job!
Thank you!
One question. How do I resize the widget?
Thanks.
Resize is only possible with some home like ADW. Launcher Pro require the paid version and with zeam you have to reinstall the widget

would a value of 255 (ff) not do it? at least make then incredible unresonsive or?
i will check the kernel registers if we got some other bit's to modify so we can disable them..
btw,
looks like Malata actually took Honeycomb 3.0 solutions into account here buttonwise.

nobody has found a way to disable the Folio 100 sensitive buttons ?
Would it be possible to make the battery in the widget, give some animation?

here is your fix , you asked for:
here is the command to disable light buttons completely (will enable after a poweroff)
DISABLE BUTTONS
Code:
echo regctrl=0x8800 >/sys/devices/virtual/input/input7/tegra_capsensor
ENABLE BUTTONS
Code:
echo regctrl=0x8801 >/sys/devices/virtual/input/input7/tegra_capsensor
Requested by user, not my idea here. but probably very handy with AndroidOS 3.0 when its out. (good for TntMod as they got buttons on screen)
thank you Dexter
Sol Ido, is it possible to add this trick in your next release ?
Any questions
