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).

Strange, for me nothings happens with it - the menues in apps are bigger by ther other font setting but with that nothing happens

Menu Font Size changeable?

Hi - just have my HD for one day now and already get SOOOOO annoyed by the ridiculously large MENUE FONTS... you even have to scroll vertically sometimes to see all entries - WHY do fonts have to be 24pt on a mobile device? Perhaps this is only with the GERman ROM...?
Does some kind soul know if the HD's registry has entries for downsizinbg the fonts?
THX, LeDuc

Yes you can with Advanced_Configuration_Tool_v3.3.

You can use Schap's Advanced Configuration Tools (Search) or you can go to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\system\gwe\menu\popfnt
and change the value for the "Ht" entry to "1000" decimal (from 1200).
Works for me anyway...

If I'm not mistaken, this value is usually set to 800.
Anyway,play around with 800, 900, and 1000 and see which suits your personal preference. It may depend on the size of your fingers and application. Only some applications's menu are long enough to require scrolling which I too found annoying.

menu fonts
THX to all - problem solved!

I changed them from 1200 to 900 but it seems nothing has changed (also after a softreset). Could you exactly explain which fonts should be affected by this modification?
Thanks!
Ascenca

what I did
...don't know who is meant by 'you exactly', but what I did was change this popfnt's Ht=800 and Wt=500, softreset ... and BEAUTIFUL small and thin menu fonts! Now..if someone could point me to an entry where I could read a bit more about all these GWE settings ?!? THX

Ok figured it out by myself Didnt look close enough
Thanks for the hint, now the menu is really tiny.

HD2 Hard to read Quicklink Text

Hi guys, just got my HD2 few days ago,
I haven't modified the rom or anything just applied the following:
Dutty's Taskmanager
DJC Taskbar
Cookie's Home Tab
I don't know how the quicklink or shortcut text looked before but I noticed that the text is not as clear, I mean the white color of the text of homescreen shortcuts is not as clear, I have no problems with reading anywhere else except on the home tab....
The white text is bit hard to read... I don't know if everyone has this problem?... is it normal?... Also is there a way to change the size of the text because I think if I make it like bold text, then it would be much easier to read....
again the Start button text, menu and phone at the bottom (which are quite thick letters) look very fine its just the text of shortcuts and weather temperature...
please let me know if anyone else has similar text that is hard to read..
thanks

is cleartype enabled?
settings tab - menu - all settings - system - screen enable cleartype.

Hi.... I don't see "Screen" icon when I go into system... ?? Which option are you talking about?
Please clarify
Thanks
p.s. this issue is the same as one discussed recently about pixelated home tab...
I am using stock rom with Cookie's Home tab....
If anyone knows about any .cab files that can be installed to solve this problem, please let me know.. .thank you.. again the problem is hard to read quick link text and weather text below the clock on the home screen (when I say hard to read It is somewhat blurry but readable.. this is not a serious issue but it doesn't look very good on the huge screen of HD2) any help will be appreciated thanks....

seems teh screen settings are hidden by default in some roms.
With a registry editor, browse to
HKLM/controlpanel/pen and change the value of 'Hide' from 1 to 0.
Soft reset, then go settings tab - menu - all settings - system and you should see screen settings icon.

You are a life safer! it makes such a huge difference I can't believe it wasnt on by default! amazing!!!! thanks thanks thanks!

pleasure

Nice, this should go in the tweak list!

While I agree that ClearType makes a huge difference, I second the request to make quicklinks text in Cookie's Home Tab larger or adjustable. ClearType or not, it is quite hard to read as of now.

bigger font size to read SMS? (in the Sense)

Is it possible to have bigger fonts size to read SMS in the Sense (I know how to make it in windows mode). Any cab or registry mod? Thank in advance.

Went searching the registry and found an obvious entry. Changed the default setting of 2 to 5, soft reset and I no longer have to squint my eyes !
HKLM\Software\HTC\HTCMessaging\Fonts\FontScale
A word of caution to those with huge amount of sms. I suspect it may cause lagging with the increased font size.

Open a SMS, menu -> font size?

simply by clicking the cube file and ftouchflo.cab that you downloaded and save it on your device, then the installation process will run by itself
if you want to get the file ftouchflo.cab Cube and try to check at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=354715
