Have you installed any SlovoEd dictionary? If yes... remove it because it causes problem to the fonts.

I had the same issue after starting Kaisertweak ... worked the second time after my next hard-reset

Hard reset :O

SPB Shell always changes the font on comm manager and kaisertweak on my kaiser. looked hard but could not find a solution on how to get it back. let me know if you find anything. tnx.

Hard Reset
Called the helpdesk and they didn't know as wel. So I made a hard reset. Now it works again.

Had the same problem when i installed a bible reader called e-sword. Found a solution:
In the Windows/Schriftarten (german) or Windows/fonts (should be the folder in WWE) there are normally no files in there. After installing the app there were three files in. I deleted the 3 files in the Windows/Fonts folder, closed the CommManager once (REAL close, don't forget) and started it again and voilà! Everything back to normal. No Hardrest needed

This happened to me the other day, after installing SPB Pocket Plus 4. It also managed to kill Tom Tom as well as screw with my fonts. I reinstalled TomTom though, and everything was OK again.

Same problem here.
I only see it in KaiserTweak, and SBSH Clock on the time console.

Well my /Fonts folder was empty. So I had nothing to delete. The font change was in Comm manager + KaiserTweak.

Same thing over here
I am sure it is SPB Shell / SPB Tools 4 in my case. They both have a today plug-in that screws the font in comm manager and kaisertweak.

Here's an easy fix if that happens, open up the fonts folder on your computer in the windows directory and copy the font called verdana in to the fonts folder in the windows directory on your phone, soft reset and after that you should be good again.

As I Already Said. I HAD NOTHING FROM SPB INSTALLED!

Tried copying the Veranda font as suggested ... but no go.
Same problem
Here is what KaiserTweak looks like ... see attached.
Any other suggestions would be most appreciated ... I only see this issue in a couple pieces of software. KaiserTweak, SBSH Clock ...

Same thing after installing WeatherPanel.
I experienced this after installing WeatherPanel. Went into \Program Files\Marsware\WeatherPanel\Themes\Default\
and deleted or renamed all *.ttf files. After a reboot everything went back to normal.
Hope this helps...

Damn that's very messedup. My font was cool and readable. Yours is fu up and not readable. I only think a Hard-reset would do the trick. Cause also installing other comm managers won't help you.

Also have the Comm Manager Font problem
I have the same problem. I installed a foreign language calendar, which put a font it needed into windows/font folder. Messed up Comm Mananger. The moment I removed the font, all was well.
Problem is that I need to use the foreign language calendar, which depends on the font!
Anyone know of a registry tweak to fix Comm Manager or otherwise allow the two to co-exist.
I don't think Comm Manager is using Verdana, so that doesn't seem to be the answer (although I haven't tried it yet).
Help from all the wise gurus out there would be appreciated.

That was exactly the problem. I deleted the two TTF files and soft reset.
Thanks for the help!

Can not set ringtone

Hi,
Big problem :-(
I can not set any small mp3 as a ringtone. I have done hard reset and it did not help. Phone is clean and every time I try to set file as an mp3 I got msg:
I was not possible to copy file to My Doc/My souds.. (even when file is there!)Make sure you have enough free memory, etc...
What should I do - I had those file as ringtones while back with no porblem. I am running original software and currently nothing else :-(
Should is change ROM? I am no expert with this so I do not even how and to which one :-(

Copy the files into the "My Documents" folder in your SD card. If there isn't one, make one. Then select the ringtone in your sounds and notifications menu.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

You're welcome, glad we could help.

Problem with Manila Music tab

I have problem with the latest offical ROM for my Htc TD2 with the music tab on the manila.The problem is in that when i press start on some song ,it starts but after 3-4 sec it's stop.I've preflashed it few times but without any progress.With the older rom version i didn't have this problem.From where it can be?

It has to do with the album art and\or the ID3 tags, I believe.
Do a search for "manila music stops after 3 seconds" and you'll find a few threads addressing this issue and the fixes for it.

PLS give me a link or something like that because i can't find nothing that can be useful on me HTC TD 2

Many different solutions with that search:
Here's one.
More here:
and the list goes on.

Those things didn't work for me,I've try also to copy mp3-s with activsync ,try with different sd card and the problem is there on new music tab also and on Duttys roms and all other with the new sense can you help me and is there solution except to back to older version of the rom?

Did you remove all of the album art and make sure all files are not read only?

Yes ,i did it few times,but the problem is still there .i've found one solution ,but it's stupid and useless-it's to put mp3-s in internal memory and remove the sd(only then it works) or to put max 3 mp-3s on sd

I don't remenber where is it in the registry, but you need to modify paths where your mp3 are, internal and memory card, in this case it's crash because where you put your mp3 on the memory card isn't the correct path in registry; do this with 6.5 and 2.5 sense.

Try this, in registry go to HKLM\SOFTWARE\HTC\AudioManager_Eng\Information\
albumart_update_failure= 0
albumart_update_success= 0
albumart_updating= 0
albumArtPath= Remove Value
available_storage_card= Storage Card;
With mp3s on SD card, set the following value to a specific song
path= (eg., \Storage Card\My Music\Songname.mp3)
Soft reset and see what happens.

This is not working

Try this:
With file explorer go to
My device\Application data\HTC\AudioManager_Eng\
delete file "AudioManager_Eng.vol" and make a soft reset.

The last one should have fixed it.
You may want to consider a hard reset or refomat your SD card.
These are all the known fixes for this issue.
Sorry.

maybe you can check your mp3s one by one. i had nearly the same problem. the reason was one special mp3 album that made the player stop after some seconds/minutes. i deleted all the mp3s on my sdcard and copied them one by one / album by album on my sdcard and checked every time if the player stops after a while. at least i found the album / mp3s that were corrupted...

1-Go to youre music folder (path with all the music) and delete all the songs bigger than 10,5 Mb.
2-Go in device memory "Application Data"->"Htc"->"AudioManager_Eng" and there you will find a folder called "Playlists" and a file "AudioManager_Eng.vol"
3-Delete this folder "Playlists" ,and rename "AudioManager_Eng.vol" as you wish ,Eg. "asdfdasd".
4-Reboot your device and the player sohould be fine after a long seach for music.
5-For all the operation i ussed TotalCommander.
I hope it will work for all of you.

TotalCommander
Here you go !

[Q] Move ringtones to internal memory

Hello, I would like to move my ringtones to the internal memory because I've noticed that since I started using Swap, It delays the ringtone from starting. This is what I observed, Randomly the ringtone starts after 2 or 3 vibrates, other times its not at all and uses the stock beeping ringtone (I guess since the SD is being used, it cant go in it and get the ringtone) So bottom line, My ringtones take a few seconds to ring after a few vibrates. I already know that I have to convert them to .ogg, but does anyone know another way to make the system pull up the ringtone faster?

I would like to know that myself. Im sick of having my default ringtone going when i selected a custom one for one of my contacts. whats the best settings for the ogg files too as this may be helpful to us both

Alright... So you wanna do this, here is what you will need:
*ADB Installed and working
*Root Manager of some sort
*Format Factory -This is freeware, so it's not warez.
1st, Download and install Format Factory. This is the program I use for everything. If you have one of your own preference, it can be substituded.
**Do a custom install, as this will try to install adbars otherwise. (You have been warned.)
2nd, Open Format Factory and click "All to OGG".
3rd, Select your ringtones and click "ok". On the next screen, click "Start"
4th, Open your Root Explorer program, I use Android Commander
5th, With your Root Explorer program, navigate to your newly created OGG files (normally found in Documents/FFOutput on your PC) in the Root Explorer.
6th, Move these files to /system/media/*** on your phone. And you are done.
Please note: ""***" represents the respective folders. i.e. "ringtones", "notifications", etc.
Hope this helped you. Click "thanks" if it did. - Any questions, ask.
EDIT: DO NOT change the OGG settings in Format Factory. They work fine at default. Once you get used to, and comfortable with doing this, then play with the settings to get your desired file size and quality.

I tried doing what you said, but although I successfully managed to push the files, they still don't appear in the ringtone/notifications menu

did you make sure the phone looked for new media, or restart ya phone? i had to do it with mine

I was going to say that I had checked the phone after restart and they still weren't showing up - but I double checked again and now they are. Thanks! I'm not sure how to check for new media, though - is there a procedure for this?

Been trying this using ES File Explorer but keeping getting a message that paste failed. Any ideas where i'm going wrong.
I have S-Off and root

you can try this, it a little easier if you have the tools but yoo have to reflash the rom so be sure to backup your apps, contacts blah blah blah...
1. unzip the 'rom.zip' file, open the folder and look for the system/media/audio folder
2. now you can add & remove ringtones, notifications, alarm sounds that you want or dont want...
3. zip the rom file back up
4. sign it with an auto sign program... (very simple to use)
5. flash rom and enjoy your customizations
6. restore your backed up contacts and apps...
(you can also remove some unwanted stock apps to save space, be sure not too remove system required apps though lol)

Cheers Idrifta, ended up getting it to work using Root Explorer.

o nice!!! haha good to know... better than my method lol

The following worked for me.. Check this
I followed a link and it worked for me on jfltetmo running on cm11-m9 and having twrp v2.8.4.0. I explained the steps in my answer here: How to install a ringtone into internal memory?. All the credit for the steps go to villo-2.

Custom Message Tone

Hey guys
So I have copied 2 custom sound files to my phone 1 for the ringtone and one for messages, they both show up and work fine when browsing via the ringtone selection menu however when trying to select either from the messages selection window they are not there ?
any ideas ?

You need to put new sounds in to right directory. Use root explorer.... For messages - system/media/audio/notification
Restart phone and new tones will be added to the list.

If you don't have just do a new folder it works,
/sdcard/Notifications
it will work as well for alarms and ringtones in COSTUM room with no root, it will work as well if you create in exsdcard...

Yeah, you're right, I'm always rooted and totally forgot about this. Thanks.
