How do I increase the font size on my Xperia system wide? I tried ING Change Font but the results are very minimul. Xperia Tweaks does not work on my system so I can't say if it would have had any effect.
I just got my Xperia today and as soon as I turned it on, I was shocked to see how small the font size is. The smallest font on my Nokia E61 seems large by comparison. I'm very near sighted so font size is very important to me. If someone could suggest another solution to my problem it would be great. I love this phone and would hate to return it for something else like an iphone.
dude the first thing u should do is go tru every single setting on ur phone and u would see it
aint this what a normal person do when they get a new phone?
solution is here:
Start>Settings>Screen>Text Size
I've looked around the phone before posting. And no I do not have the "screen" option when I go into settings.

Thanks for the help. But the text is still a bit small for me. I maxed out the text size and the menus and various screens seem to still have the same size as before

hi all!
just got myself a diamond yesterday after spending 8 months with a n95 8gb... overall impressive phone but coming from a dopod d810, i find the system status dialog/touchflow 3d interface extremely annoying!
how do i remove them???
system status dialog -> where you can click on the volume, date, 3G icons on the top right hand side of the phone
also anybody knows how to remove the functionality where you press the vol up/down and it changes the system volume?
Hard Reset the daimond. When it boots up after configuration and when it says 3 seconds to customize , press reset.
PS : Opera also wont be installed. you can download opera cab seperately
If it's just the interface, why not uncheck it from Settings>Today ? Or does it come back? Not tried it yet myself

start->preferences->system->TouchFLo
unselect third checkbox..
Allright .. that´t the way to disable TouchFlo...
but how can we get rid of the system status dialog?
(another way than soft reset before HTC customizing runs...)
thx alot...
one more here that is really seeking to get rid of that awfull system status.....
thats the only thing so far i really hated on the diamond
Doesn't my solution (3 posts up from here) work to disable the system status dialog window?
It works for me (MDA Compact IV -Dutch)
yes it works real fine, the problem is everyone still wants the touchflow 3d
we just want to get rid of the system status on the upper corner
Guys..
instead of the full screen system status, do U think I can get the original Touch/Cruise system bubble instead? It's similar to the full screen, but the icons are slightly bigger and appears on top of the screen in a bubble.
Any ideas?
I also find the system status page an unnecessary step. Coming from an Imate K-jam, I preffered just pressing on the icon at the top (alarm bell / envelope / handset etc) to take me to the pop-up bubble at the bottom of the screen where I could either enter open the inbox / call register/calender etc or dismiss.
I read somewhere that the system status page is to bring up large icons for finger pressing. I don't understand the logic of this as the only way I bring up the system status page is by pressing on a small icon in the title bar!
I would like to be able to remove this system status screen step
Why does everone ignores the answer already given??
* To disable the Systemstatus screen, go to Settings>System>Touchflo
* untick the third checkbox wich states (translated from Dutch): "Show Systemstatuswindow when ticked on statusicons"

The idea is that you don't have to aim so precise, just press anywhere near the icons and then you can take your pick by pressing an easy target.
Anyway I do agree with you that it is an annoying extra step, it is a good thing it can be disabled (see previous post).
hi
any idea why my elf does not have 3 options but only 1 "enable sound when finger scrolling and panning"
Is there any workaround to turn off the touchflow?
maybe it's because I was flashed the rom to an "original orange" version?
thanks

Same here, but I found this registry key that helped me (i really hate the big system status menu!) :
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\EnlargeTitleBar\Enable which must be 0 to disable it! You don't even need to reboot, works instant!
Ever since I updated the ROM, I really hate that big system status screen.
I thought I would have had to live with it, so I am very glad to found this thread.
Thanks guys!!!

If anyone can please help me i would reallyyyy appreciate it!
Hi Everyone!
I just got my X1 and am loving it.
However, I can't seem to find an option for the today screen size font settings that I like.
Under System > Screen > Text Size
There are 5 options. The default option is kinda small. But the next one is too big for my preference.
Is there a way to hack the registry to change it to a font size between option 3 and option 4?
Thanks in advance for any replies!
Best regards
relazzzzz
I have changed the font size with Xperia Tweak or with sk tools.
Xperia Tweak is free from this forum, sk tools not.
dingolino
Hi dingolino,
Thanks for the suggestions.
It doesn't do exactly what I need.
The font settings in SK Tools changes the system font size, menu bar font size and the pop up menu bar font size. It does not change the size of the fonts on the today screen.
I realised that selecting the font size under systems > screen changes the font size of the today screen and also the sms inbox list.
My current selection is too small. The next selection is too large. Was hoping a registry key could enable me to select the size of the font under systems > screen. I had the same problem when I owned a Benq P50 and I had to tweak a registry key to get the option I wanted. Was wondering if anyone knew the registry key for WM6.1.
Thanks!!
HiHi,
I found the registry key:
HKLM > Control Panel > Stylus > 192 DPI
On the Screen settings, the options I was toggling between were XXXX, XXXX, 800, 1000, XXX.
I set the value to 900 and I got exactly the font size that I wanted. The today screen font and the sms inbox font has also changed to my preferred size.
Hope this is helpful for anyone else who can't get the right font size.
Regards

oh finally i found it
works great in my omnia 2
thanks my friend
I changed my DPI systemwide to 560. The dialer, lockscreen and camera become off set. So I downloaded app settings through xposed and changed dialer and camera DPI back to 640 and solved the off set issue. However I can't find the actual file/app name for the lockscreen. There's 100s of system files/apps to choose from. Does anyone know what the actual lockscreen is called. For example com.android.security or something like that. If anyone knows it would be great. I don't want to edit 300 systems apps one by one until I fix my lockscreen. I've tried apps simular to security but nothing changes my lockscreen DPI back to 640.
It should be keyguard if memory serves me right
That was like the second or third one i tried. Didnt fix it

RESOLVED: Found another thread that talks about this and has the fix --> Make sure that "Apply res to widgets" is CHECKED in com.android.keyguard along with DPI 640 AND reboot. There is only one entry and not two. It is com.android.keyguard. See link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/not...anging-note-4-dpi-settings-to-change-t2923408
Hi budco2000, I am having the same problem as you on the lockscreen once I changed my system wide DPI.
Using Xposed's App Settings, I can only find one entry of keyguard (com.android.keyguard) and not the second one like you mentioned. I tried different keywords like "key", "guard", "pin", "lock" and still not able to find the second keygurad entry. So, my lockscreen's PIN pad is still not aligned.
Can you please tell me what's the second entry you are referring to, please? I am using the same T-Mobile's Note 4 on AT&T
Thanks

Thank you so much
glad I could help.
I was tweaking the shortcut icons on my notifications shade and somehow by changing the grid size, I've managed to block access to the 3 dot menu. (See screenshot). Any attempt to hit the 3 dot menu ends up activating the shortcut icon below it.
I tried switching to horizontal, which I can then access the 3 dot menu but then there's no option to change the grid size!?!?
Anyone have any ideas? Or am I stuck and have to reset my phone?
Video demonstrating the problem
Thanks for any assistance
Added note: tried booting into safe-mode but that didn't help

Did or have you activated the developers menu? Do this and scroll down the list until you see "minimum width" and set it to 411. This is or will change your working screen area making screen area, icons, & menus bigger or smaller, maybe this may work. Try different numbers but mine was set to 411 out of the box. That's the only think I can think of that may lead you to a fix, not a guaranteed solution tho, just an idea. Looks like a glitch of some sort, this idea is all I can think of that may help you find a solution. Later my friend.
Good luck!

Thank you for the suggestion. I had tried changing the screen resolution under display settings but that didn't work. It hadn't even occurred to me to try under the developers options. Unfortunately, that didn't work either.
I've solved the problem by resetting the phone.
