This may be a nitpicky thing from someone who barely posts, but I was wondering if there was a way to change the size of fonts in places like the settings menu from the smaller style like mikrom's uses back to the bigger size of the stock sense 1.0. I've tried font changing apps and lcd density but they make the buttons and borders way too big as well which makes everything ugly and overlap.
Any help would be great, thanks.
Not nitpicky at all. I interested in this also.

The font arrays relate to the text size slider in the screen settings
I'm using the same font sizes for true VGA and for the qVGA-mode. It means that fonts are small on the screen but oh so beautiful! Larger font sizes just made certain things look ugly, which kinda defeated the purpose of switching to VGA, IMHO.
I guess it depends what you're using your Universal for. Most of the apps I'm using allow me to scale their fonts so when I need larger fonts I can have them. Only the Microsoft apps have unscalable fonts...
Make sure you have the text size set to medium in the Screen control panel applet. I found that it helps to turn Cleartype OFF as well.
And I wear glasses
what about phone app, myne goes all funny, and very small. I can barely see numbers, and the whole keypad just stays at the corner of the screen. that,s abir annoying.
and I think I will have to wear glasses very soon with text size like that.

I really like the way my system looks with a higher density setting.
Unfortunately some things look better bigger or just don't look good at all / don't work at all in lower density settings.
Is there a way to size down specific UI elements in specific the statusbar?
I'm running Liberty Rom and I wanted to know if there was any way to make the font smaller?
If I go into Settings > Liberty Settings > Spare Parts there's a "Change Font Size" setting, but when I select a smaller size it doesn't stick. As soon as I back out to my homescreen the font is back to normal.
I also know that changing my LCD Density makes the font smaller, but it also messes with some of my apps so I don't like doing that.
Any other ideas?
Nobody...?
You could try flashing a different font that's smaller?

Anyone noticed how in ICS, some apps (I suspect its got something to do with the in built browser?) are rendering fonts small despite setting system fonts to large.
Examples include rdio, and national australia bank.
I tried changing the font size in system and font size (accessibility) in default browser, but nothing seems to affect certain apps like the ones above.
Anyone know of a fix, or found a DPI that doesn't break anything? reading old threads apparently changing DPI breaks things
I was hoping the fonts issue would be solved in ICS. System fonts are way too small such as under icons etc. It's slightly better in some apps that respond to the ICS changing font size option. User sk806 in the development section was working on this issue for HC but found it very complicated to change the font size at the system level.
Thats the bit I don't get: how do we fix the apps that don't obey the system setting? Must be some kind of built in library or browser.
Looking for the screen resolution to be smaller.
The font is set to small, actually looking for a tiny font.
In other words the screen fonts are to big, I guess.
Do I need to load a custom rom?
Thanks

you don't need a custom rom, you can update the displayDPI in your build.prop as long as you have root. You should be able to update the number to update the size of the elements on your screen, give it a quick google!

Use a custom launcher like nove you can force override font size there the Nova desktop settings for you Droid and gives you some pretty nice customization options for docks apps even allows you to build custom icons from gallery pics
