This is my first post and hopefully it raises an interesting issue.
I am partially sighted and have just got an XDA II. I really like it but I find some of the fonts in some of the applications to be rather small. I know about increasing Font size in Contacts/Calendars/Tasks etc. but I'm thinking more on the SMS/Email inboxes and on the Today screen.
In comparison I have used an SPV E200 which has accessability features available from the Settings menu. I had a large font homescreen set abd large fonts were used throughout the system - it made reading SMS's a breeze.
Is there a awy of increasing the font size througfht out all the applications as the smartphone seems to allow.
At a bare minimum I want to be able to create and read sms and emails using a larger font.
If the system font cannot be increased in these applications, has any one got suggestions for PPC PE applications that I can download and use.
I look forward to the responses.
Regards,
Mike
Yeah you can change everything, font sizes, colors,,, everything..

It has an appearance option much like the one in Windows 2000/XP
So, ive read that Microsoft was going to add some more user customization in the big update for WP7. I think there will be 2 seperate updates...one for the copy & paste feature...and then a bigger update shortly after. So I got to thinking....what if they gave us the option of choosing "glassy" looking live tiles...say something with 50% opacity and allowed us to set our own wallpapers along with those tiles instead of just a simple black or white background. I myself think that would be a really nice feature for customization to add. How many of you would actually like to see something like that added in???
Just wondering what people were wanting the developers to work on for the new metro interface. Personally I would love to be able to use custom photos for launcher tiles. I'm inspired by some of the great screen shots I've seen for Launcher7 for android devices. Something like this Browsing Customization on deviantART over the tiles?
I've been using the CP only for a few days but I already missed the fature to set the tile Images manually. Some non-Metro apps look terrible with their tiny Icons compared to the tiles. Another thing I don't like is that you can't drag the Metro screens. You either have to use the scrollbar or the mouseweel. Oh and I think the Color selection is too limited. It would be able to tie the Interface Color with the automatic aero color, so that the Background has the same Color as the highlights.
Is there an easy way to make tiles use a custom color, particularly on a Windows RT device? I'm getting a Surface in 5 days, and but I prefer the tile system on Windows Phone to Windows 8 (ex: I like all my tiles to be one color). I saw a program called "ObyTiles" but that only appears to work on x86 machines and only for Desktop applications.
Thanks!
UPDATE: I figured out that there is in fact an application that can automatically change my lockscreen to the Bing wallpaper, so don't worry about the second question in the title.
i worked on an os design back in 2014 so i wanted android on a pc for several years now, phoenix has impressed me quite a lot, here are some minor gripes and issues i ran into
1.i can\t change language input to my keyboard region
2.using a higher dpi makes everything appear jagged and pixelated, not enough to make it terrible but enough to notice setting wallpapers also make most extremely blurry
3.a lot of live wallpapers doesn\t work when i apply them they work then i exit out of the app and it goes back to the default wallpaper i did get one live wallpaper to work though edit i fixed this by letting the apps run in the background i would add some kind of help text on this as i don\t think everyone would figure this oue
4.all the baidu things and chinese apps preloaded i\d personally like if they werent but not a big deal
5.text marking doesn\t work properly like you\d expect all it does is drag the pointer to select text you have to hold on it and then drag the two pointer like on a phone
6.i want an option to disable the keyboard and search and storage devices button and just keep the clock I've disabled everything else i love the addition of a thin home button like on windows
7.i\d like to customize the taskbar and recent apps menu various colors and transparency etc
8.the weird light effect on selected icons could be a line to make it more flat but thats a personal thing
9.i would like to be able to change the start button to any icon from an icon pack
10.i would like to add or remove tiles as well as hiding the brightness and volume slider so an optiont to disable these would be nice
11.i would like various sizes for the startmenu i think it\s too wide i also would like to be able to disable the startmenu sidebar as i don\t need it
12.widget support would be nice
13.colors are very washed out making it appear as if i connected a very old tablet to my monitor they don\t appear crisp as they do on windows
14.resizing windows is extremely laggy
15.the trash icon for clearing notifications would be better as 3 lines stacked ontop of each other minor detail
