Unable To Change Large Fonts in Diamond - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

Hi there,
I have stopped using TF3D fully and resorted with a jam packed stnadard Today screen.
Now I would like to make the text sizes for Diamond the same as the normal WM 6.1 too.
I have unchecked Big Font in Start Menu under settings and also have done"
32. Change system and context menu font size:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\system\gwe\menu\popfnt
and change the value for the "Ht" entry to "1000" decimal (from 1200)
And have also used Advanced Configuration Tool v3.2 to change context menu size to standard 1000.
But still context menus and some texts for programs are huge! Even after a soft reset.
Anyone facing the same problems?

[REF][UPDATED 09/08]List of Diamond Tweaks

This is a summary of Diamond tweaks collected from various threads on XDA and from people's contributions. Thanks to all who discovered the Tweaks (not mentioning by name because there's too many to mention and all I did is aggregate). This is a collective effort so let's keep the list growing!
thread. Let's keep the comments in the Warning: Be sure you know what you're doing and read around the Diamond forums to see where others have run into trouble and with which tweaks on which ROMs. Many people have had to Hard Reset their devices while others have had no problems so read up!
1. Boost TFL3D Performance --> Using Advanced Config, change File system cache to 8mb and file system filter cache to 131072
2. Boost TFL3D Performance --> HKLM\System\Storagemanager\Fatfs and change key Cachesize from 16384 to 32768
3. Wake Up on New SMS --> HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL : DisableSMSWakeUpEvent <-- set to "1" by default. Change value to "0"
4. Switch Mute Call on phone flipped face down: HKLM\Software\HTC\PHONE : FaceDownMuteRing: change value to "1" (FIXED: thanks KuKuRiKu and everyone)
5. Change CallWaiting Tone --> HKLM\Software\HTC\PHONE : by default set to \windows\waitingtone.wav by default. change to anything else
6. Boost TFL3D Scrolling Speed --> - HKLM\SYSTEM\GDI\GLYPHCACHE\limit = 16384 or 32768 (DWORD decimal)
- To change it back to the default: - HKLM\SYSTEM\GDI\GLYPHCACHE\limit = 8192 (DWORD decimal)
7. To do a Hard Reset, with the phone ON, hold down the Volume Down and Enter (round navigation) keys and press soft reset while they are pressed
8. Prevent screen switching off during phone call --> HKEY_Local_Machine\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL\EnableFastDormantDisplayDuringCall to 0 (Note: does not work on all ROMs)
AND (tested and works on EU ROMs thanks to Rod65)
HKCU\ControlPanel\Phone\Sleep switch value from 1 to 0
9. Downlod original CONTENT folder (Wallpaper, VIDEO, MUSIC) here http://rapidshare.com/files/121271047/CONTENT_Internal_storage.rar.html
10. Set HTC Album X button to close not minimize:ok_minimize change value to 0
11. Disable Enlarged Title bar (when you click on a notification) to the default WM behavior: HKLM->Software->HTC->EnlargeTitleBar - and change "Enable" from 1 to 0.
12. Turn off startup aninmation and sound: HKEY_Local_Machine\Software\HTC\HTCAnimation\ -> rename both "StartupGif" and "StartupWav" to other names
13. Enable GPS photo: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\Camera\P10 -> change the value "enabled" from 0 to 1
15. Another supposed TFL3D tweak for better performance: HKLM\Software\OEM\TFLOSettings:
SpeedHigh: default value (25) <-- Change to (5) / SpeedLow : default value (70) <-- Chnge to (14) save and soft reset
16. Adjust screen sensitivity: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\TouchPanel
Value = PressureThreshold
Change from the default dword:00000027 or 34 to dword:000000f0 or 240 in decimal
17. Lightsensor Switching the Screen off- realised by yelitterulez, confirmed by pietrucci and tested by myself. When making a call the screen stays on if you leave the phone lying flat on a table. If you wait 10 seconds into the call, you can pick it up to your ear and the screen stays on.
BUT if you make a call with the phone slightly tilted/ slanted (you get the idea), the screen turns off as soon as the call gets connected!
The moment you hold the phone to your head the blacklight turns off. In fact: the moment you hide the screen with anything it turns off! (try your hand...).
This might be the reason why everybody's complaining about the screen turning off during a call: you hold the phone to your head! When you turn the screen back on manually, it stays on no matter if you hold your hand or head...
18. Automatically lock your Diamond --> HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\BackLight\AutoDevic eLockEnable from 0 to 1 and everytime your backlight goes off the device is locked

20. Delay device autolock: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\BackLight\AutoDeviceLockTimeout -> Change the Dword value (30 = 30 seconds, etc)
21. Enable Manual Screen Rotation (Portrait/Landscape): HKLM - System - GDI - Rotation - HideOrientationUI (change from 1 to 0)
22. Hide SIM Contacts: HKCU\ControlPanel\Phone - create a new DWORD value named "ShowSim" and set it to 0

nice one on the sms wake. We should expand the list! THanks!
Update:
Thanks for updating the list!
Since I don't see a tweak for Disabling SMS Conversation (The costly SMS Chat) I will post it here!
Disable SMS Conversation in WM 6.X
In Registry Editor: Create a folder named "OEM" in "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Settings"
In the new "OEM" folder, make a new DWORD key called "SMSInboxThreadingDisabled" and give it a value of "1"
That will disable the SMS conversation. When you click on the messages on the SMS tab on TF3D, it will take you to the normal SMS inbox instead.
Hope it helps
thanks a lot, keep going please
Great!
This is very useful and it helps solve a lot of problem. Will the cache size change make the D unstable?
For some they say it has...but for me, my device is running great!

I have had a real issue with number 2, I had to do a hard reset after changing the Cachesize to 32768. During startup the device hanged and wouldn't load up the touch flow, nothing worked.

Yes, I had same problem.
Hmm afaik 'File system cache' in 1) is the same as the key HKLM\System\Storagemanager\Fatfs\cachsize in 2).
So tip 1 sets it to 8mb, and tip 2 changes it from 16mb to 32mb. So that suggests its 16m to start with?
Sounds like the file system filter cache is whats making the main difference. Thats this key:
HKLM\System\StorageManager\Filters\fsreplxfilt\Rep lStoreCacheSize
Can someone maybe post the original values of these two keys?

There are 3 values to be changed.
1. The Icon Cache which is suggested to be changed to 131072. The registry setting is:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GDI\GLYPHCACHE]
"limit"=dword:00020000
The value is shown as hexadecimal, which is equivalent to 131072 in decimal.
2. The second value is to be changed in FAT File System cache.
3. The third value is to be changed is Filters File System cache.
The cache sizes in #2 and #3 are usually kept same, for example 32768 decimal (32MB). Though, this eats up a lot of memory, but makes the system very fast. Lately, I have seen in KaiSer and Universal that these values are set as dynamic values.
Hope this is helpful.
KOR!
anyone know which registry key can make the phone not blank the screen when answering call?

Yeah, people do know. Search for it.
Just read about a 'tweak' in another thread. It seems disabling "GPRS auto attach" in Advanced Configuration Tool helps in preserving battery live.
Read about it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=395301
For me turning that option to off would be best solution as well. Even more so if it really helps save the battery.
Since I don't have a Diamond yet I havent gotten a chance to actually test this tweak.
Another thing I've found eats up a lot of battery life is the schedule to check email. I have my Direct Push set to an Exchange account and a second Internet Email account. Changing the frequency of checking the second account really makes a difference.

agree. my setup is similar to you. i was using 10 mins to check my second IMAP account, i have only around 9-10 hrs standby time. Now, i changed that IMAP account to check in every 60 mins, now, standby time is extended to more than 12 hrs.
what was the previous default File system cache and file system filter cache setting, cause my phone has slowed down since i have changed it. please reply back to me as soon as possible. thank you

Threaded sms in Diamond - make font smaller

The font in the threaded sms in HTC DIamond is ridiculously huge. Not the font of my own typing, but the font of the sms i'm replying to. How do i make the font smaller?
When i had a tytn2, going to start > settings > system > screen > and adjusting font size here solved the problem. Doesnt seem to work for Diamond. Or am i missing something here?
At the threaded sms screen....put your finger on the circle button's circumference and move it clockwise..or CCW for smaller font..
owh....****. *embarassed*. Sorry my bad. thanks! (no wonder i felt that when i first bought diamond i felt the font was smaller, must have enlarged it accidentally)
Hi,
I have the same issue and tried the method you recommend, but it doesn't change anything. However I found out a registry key that does perfectly the job: go to HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Settings\Zoom and enter a DWORD value that ranges from 1 (smallest font size) to 4 (largest font size - default).
thanks thats been driving me nuts...
I am glad that I did search~~ cause I was going to change do it with regedit too~~
Sorry to resurrect this.....
Is there a way to change the size of the actual text input box for sms / outlook?
With medium text size, when I'm replying to an sms I can see roughly two lines of text in the reply box. Is there a way of making the box bigger so i can see three or four lines of text in the reply box at a medium text size setting?
ALSO It seems you can only decrease the font size of the input text in the system settings, unlike using the d pad to change the font size of the message thread.
You sure can change the area in threaded sms to see a little more of what you typing.
The file thread_sms.htm (found in /windows or in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=467966&highlight=thread_sms.htm ) is the key.
If you open the file linked with forinstance notepad you see in line 21 the keyword height=35.
35 is the default value, change that to 70 to double the height of your writing area.
save the file and overwrite the thread_sms.htm in /windows directory on the phone by using total commander or the like.
Kindly
Kwasmir
Thanks, man that small area was BUGGING me!!!!
Cheers!

POP-UP menu font size - selections size

Hi,
I've searched and found the way of changing fonts in the pop-up menu of my HTC Diamond.
However, the selections fonts (the similar to V shapes and the arrows for navigation in the pop up menu) are still in big size... does anyone know how to edit their size as well?
Thanks a lot!
Anyone pls?
Unfortunatelly I have the same problem. I want to have a perfectly clean WM 6.1 system, fully stylus-operated. I have already disabled all the "garbage" like TochFlo etc., I have decreased the pop-up menu font size (using Schap's Adv Config Tool, but that can be easily done with many other progs like SK-Tools etc.) but I still cannot do anything about those stupid large "arrows" and "V-signs" (like in the checkbox list). They remain the same big size, as it was before decreasing the pop-up menu font.
Really nobody knows how to decrease their size as well???
Just a quick suggestion, go to settings, system and screen. Then go to text size, change it down by one nouch. See if that helps
Unfortunatelly no - the popup menu font remains the same (but that I know how to controll over SK-Tools) and also the arrows/v-signs remain the same - very large that is
advanced config will let you change the size of the font in the popup window
This is what you're looking for:
HKLM\System\GWE\"WidgeSz"=0.
Drove me crazy for days too until someone pointed me in the right direction.

Large Menu (Original Fuze Menu)

When I first bought my ATT Fuze its menus were large so as I could touch them easier with my finger. I do not mean the text size or the Start Menu. When you would click any menu item it would come up with a nice Large menu. When I flashed my rom I have normal WM6.1 menu.
Any help with this would be appreciated
Click any menu item? Don't understand..upload a pic.
you should be able to reenable it by going to the touchflo settings menu.. if not you may have to search down a enlarged start menu cab file..
Not the Start MENU
I specifically said this was not the start menu I was talking about. I am talking about menus brought up from pressing the menu soft keys at bottom of screen on the task bar. On the Fuze Default rom there is bigger touch friendly style menus that come up in most all applications. Is there a cab for this somewhere because windows menus suck.
Here it is:
Go into the Registry:
go to:
HKLM\System\GWE\Menu\PopFnt
Change "Ht" value to "1200"
That is the font of the menu in pixels I think. Alternatively you can use the Diamond Config Tool or Advanced Config Tool, which is a GUI interface for a collection of registry edits.

[Q] Sizing of Popup Menus (WM6.5, no Menu Enhancement)

My Problem is rather simple: I want this:
http://i.iimmgg.com/images/th/c86c0db38227e4b40b82058488e371fd.jpg
and i got this:
http://kimag.es/share/38726898.jpg
Funny enough: tael has a cab to undo what i want:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=249156&d=1258840564
I use WM6.5 21891 "Phoenix 2" by NRG, i just snatched these example pics from tael (thanks btw). Both menu styles are with menu enhancements disabled (obviously).
This is NOT fixed with changing "Popup menu font size" from advanced config. Even with a ridiculously low value (like 500) the seperate "buttons" of the menu are still way too big while the font in it is ridiculously small.
I hope this can be changed and is not "cooked in", because it was the way i liked it in former Energy Rom Builds, it only changed after 21864 (i think).
Hopefully im posting in the right section (technically this is not rom related, so a seperate post should be fine).
Thanks in advance
Use a reg edit and in:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\system\gwe\menu\popfnt
change MANUALLY the value for the "Ht" entry to "800" decimal (from 1200)
Thanks for the fast reply, but i already tried that:
