sms font size gone tiny - XPERIA X1 General

hi,
i got a text today and when i went to reply i noticed that my text message font size has gone tiny.
i have tried a soft reset and it has not fixed the problem. it seems strange as i have not messed with any settings or installed any software and the font size was normal last night.
is there a way to fix the problem? maybe by registry (does anyone know where in the registry it is?)
ps. it seems like the tiny font size u get in mania from the main ui screen.

Open email, with a message displayed ( opened ), Menu, View, Text Size......I think this might do it for you...change to large and see if you can read it better.

No more email/SMS notification in Today screen...

Hi everybody
I have made some changes in Today view (calendar+, Journal bar...) and now I don't see any more the email/sms notification...
How can I put it back?
Thank you
O2 ROM 1.60.50
I had a similar problem where the envelope symbol still appeared but the notification bubble didn't. I looked in phone/tools/options/other settings/notifications/ select inbox:new sms message and the 'display message on screen' check box had been cleared. I checked it again and its working fine. Hope this helps.
The check box you are talking about is already checked, but I still have no notification in today screen...........
sometimes, a soft reset is needed to effect the changes. sometimes.
cheers.
look under the today items in the registry for inbox, if found see if their is a qutation arount the name "Inbox" if not put ones manually if yes remove them & try reseting
also you migh find something called order, check the order of all these items in the registry you'll defenatly find the same number of order for the inbox & something else change one of them to a unique numbers & try
Thanks everybody, since I discovered this forum I'm an happier man!
I have noticed that in today's objects (where to put the flag...), the DATE item was repeated (2 times). Don't know why!
I solved making a beautiful HARD RESET, also because the device was very fresh from another HR the day before.
Now I have only to re-install the 10 progs that I had on....

You did it! There were commas arounf "inbox", I removed and then it displayed again in today screen!!! THANK YOU RABIA
The problem now is that I have a scrolling bar in today screen BUT it is not necessary cause there is nothing in the bottom...
Any idea how to remove this scrolling bar??
it depend on what the lowest item in the today screen is
Yes, in fact it was tAgenda that was set to 5 lines, now I set to 3 and the scrolling bar disappered...
Thank you again
It happened when you have more than 13 today "plugins in setting>today>items"
another limitation... :roll:

Number of sms characters

I have ROM 1.93 and the ammount of characters of the sms is hidden behind the keyboard. I heard that the old ROM had it in the taskbar.
Is there any tool or reg.key to put the counter somewhere else?
Or maybe a pop-up like the old SE phones have, with a notice thay you've entered the next sms.
Because I'm switching from provider for 3G and I won't have unlimited sms to my g/f anymore lol
I know it's not an ideal solution but, while you're typing up your SMS, tapping the keyboard icon at the bottom of the screen will toggle the keyboard on and off so you can check at any time before you send whether you've gone over the 160 character limit or not. It is a pain in the arse to have to keep doing it but at least it lets you see the info you need.
Yeah I already found this solution, but it's not that practical.
Also if I tap the incon in the botto my keybaord doens't dissapear, but I get the input options, where I can change the keybaord layouts.
When you type an sms outside TF3D, you see the count in the taskbar.
But I prefer TF3D, so I can work without stylus.
Hoped someone with program abilities countered the same problem and made a little fix for it.
Bizarrely if you are typing a reply it shows the characters in the task bar at the top left but if you type a new message it is under the text and hidden by the keyboard.

You need to tap away from the triangle/arrow beside the keyboard icon.
Hmm ok so no other solution then clicking away the keybaord, make adjustments, click it away again to check if enough etc etc.
I'll reserve 5 minutes per sms then, because smsing with the touchscreen isn't that quick either. lol
That's not a problem specific to the Diamond.
SMSs are a pain on touchscreens. They are a pain on Windows Mobile.
And of couse the Diamond is Windows Mobile AND touch screen...

Looking for couple of rare tweaks... - please help

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?

Font got so big in SMS screen.

I'm using EzInput, Compact QWERTY.
I was replying to a message, by accident I swiped the thumb over those upper arrow XT9/ABC & Send buttons, then the font size suddently got bigger. I swiped my thumb around those keys again & it got even BIGGER.
I played around with the font settings (Settings > All Settings > Screen > Text Size), but nothing helps.
Soft Reset. Not helping.
Good thing I have SpriteBackup. Back up, everything's normal again...
Weird stuff.
Cant wait for the new ROM from HTC.
You can change Text size with the zoombar (in threaded sms-mode).
Maybe that changed your text size?!
That's it!!!
Thanks for the tip!
D
Thanks marcel
I was wondering where the setting was, didnt know about the zoombar thing

Change text size

Any way I can enlarge the text size? Ideally throughout all apps but especially in 'messaging' and the browser.
It's for a friend who has limited eyesight.
Many thanks.
SPARE PARTS
wow that was hard
Thanks man, just got it from marketplace but it doesn't work! It changes it for a moment but as soon as you click 'back' or 'home' it reverts to the usual text size...
Does anyone know of a way to make it 'stick'? Or an alternative application?
Thanks!
Iwould like to have this as well. Who developed "Spare Parts"?
You can find the author in 'market' ... it's too bad - I contacted him already, he just enabled an option that he found in the source by the sound of it, and doesn't know how it works. Can anyone help?
