Does anyone knows how to change the font?
I don't think you can.
Yu can change the font. Use the search function. there are cabs available. at least 3 that I know of.
Search the developement and hacking section. There is a stickie at the top of the list where to ask quiestions.
Problems That I have experienced are very minor when changing the font. sometime some control panels do not know how to adjust.
Good luck searching
I put in a cab
I've installed a cab for other font it was good no problem with many apps but dont works on every app. most of them but no everyone. try it.

I know this has been asked before, but I didn't find any solid answers on how to go about creating a theme for a WM5 device (my Qtek 9100, for example). Microsoft's official theme creator dates back to PPC2003, and Kamware's ThemeMaker M is giving me errors and closing. Is there anything else out there that can create themes for WM5 devices?
My plan was actually to create a series of themes for this community using the Origami Project's gallery on its website (located at http://origamiproject.com/gallery/gallery.aspx ). I already have the right sizes for the wallpaper (320x294 for both portrait and landscape), and all I need to do now is create matching color schemes for these backgrounds. I'd really appreciate it if somebody could help me find a good WM5 theme creation tool!
I'd write Kamware and tell them to fix theirs
The only other one specifically targetting WM5 that I've seen is...
http://www.codeppc.com/telechargements/themegence/themegence.htm
It's very actively being developed (just noticed it bumped up a version, actually), so if you run into any issues you can let the author know. Be sure to download the Anglais version if you want English
This program works relatively well... the only problem is that the theme colors still don't seem to work for me. I can only seem to get a dark blue color to show up, and SOMETIMES red. I still can't get green to work.
I just got a bunch of nice backgrounds and i'd like a utility to cycle through them. Does anyone know if such a thing exists? i did a quick search but couldnt find anything on this forum.
http://www.google.dk/search?hl=da&q=today+theme+rotator&btnG=Google-søgning&meta=lr=lang_da|lang_en
thanks, im still looking through some of those links. but from my first impression it looks like those links provide programs to rotate the whole theme rather than just the background pic. Do you know if this is the case?
if so just change the search to something like this
http://www.google.dk/search?hl=da&q=today+theme+switcher&btnG=Søg&meta=lr=lang_da|lang_en
That's still searching for something that changes the entire theme, isn't it?
What I want is something to just change the wallpaper/background from a directory with many background images.
I tried searching google for "wm5 change backgrounds" but couldn't find what I was looking for. (my google skills suck)
Maybe I just don't understand how a theme changer could change my backgrounds for me.
Please advise.
Thank you.
Hi, I'd like to make my fonts look like the ones that they advertise with the crossbow. I mean i'd like to have my whole system with those fonts but i don't know how. I've done tons of searching but i could not find anything that would help me change the fonts of my whole system (unless i build my own rom with those fonts but that's too complicated for me). Is there another way? i've found some threads that's suppose to change the fonts but it messed up my fone, others do not change the whole system but just some fonts. All WM6 roms that i've used do not have those fonts that I'm talking about. I'd like to make it like the fonts on this picture. Can someone help me please?
Is there anyone out there who can help/suggest something/make me read another thread/tell me it's not possible/whatever...?anyone?

I don´t think it is so easy - but what about cleartype. The font doesn´t look so different for me. Just cleartype?? Don´t know.
Start - settings - screen - enable cleartype.
And there are registry hacks to enable it also in landscape mode. (Registrywizard or HTweakC)
thanks, but i already have cleartype on. not quite the same but i really appreciate ur reply. With over 240+ views, i finally received a reply. At least i can say ur one of the few people out there who genuinely lend a helping hand to others. I really appreciate it thanks again
Looking at the screengrabs I think they're from a VGA device (a HTC Universal for example), which is why the fonts looks slightly smoother and more rounded. The font on the XDA Exec I borrowed looked a lot nicer than my XDA Mini-S just because it was higher res, despite the actual screen real-estate being used in the same way (IE. although the screen was higher res, everything was larger to compensate). The effect I saw looked just like in some of your screenshots - particularly the first portrait one.
thanks paulmdx!i guess that explains it. it probably looks different because of the vga screen.Thanks, i guess i'll just have to give up on wishing that my fonts be like that
Sorry for my late response...I was suppose to reply back to you after you reminded me that the fonts could be changed...I managed to change the fonts by adding the files to the font folder in the \windows\fonts directory...the extention you are looking for is .ttf...I tried to use a font with a different extention and it didn't work...also if you are looking for fonts then your best bet is http://dafont.com ...they have the best looking fonts, and they have popular fonts used in movies, video games, etc...the one that I am running is aiight, and the one that i put on my girl's is the Walt Disney font...one more thing, after you put the fonts on your ppc you will need to have a program to change the font for you, or you'll need to either change some registry key to enable it (I don't know the keys), or use a program like Tweaks2k2.net to change it...it's not a free program, but you'll be able to use the program 3 times before you have to register it...I don't if you were looking for the font used in WM6 or you were looking for a way to change fonts on the ppc, but anyways here's some info for those who wanted to do this...
Btw this only changes some fonts, but not all of them...it's better this way just in case you put a font that is blurry, too small, etc...while I was trying out fonts for my girl's phone, this happened to me...if all the fonts on the ppc were changed, I wouldn't have been able to find the options easily to change the font...looks awesome though...even my keyboard font changed...my cousin said I'm ghetto because my font looks like tagging lol...
Missing font!
While we are on this topic.....Some of my fonts are messed up!
I installed the 10 button Comm Manager and couldn't get the WLAN to activate. I then went back to the 8 button Comm Manager. Later I found a fix for the 10 and uninstalled the 8. When I did it messed up my fonts. Does anyone have the stock fonts they can send me?

Hello!
It's very difficult to read the Today Screen on the Topaz in bright sunlight. I have searched and searched again for a solution on XDA-Developers and the internet as such, but I found nothing. Actually, there's very little discussion about this problem. I find that a bit strange since this isn't only a cosmetic thing; the issue actually has consequences for the practical use of the device.
So, I ask you guys if anyone is working on this problem? Or perhaps I'm the only one who regards the white font as a problem? There must be some way to get black font on the Today Screen? Perhaps there already is a solution out there that I haven't found?
I hope someone knows the solution to my problem!
Kind regards
Eiliv
P.S. I have tried Max TF3D Theme Maker, but that doesn't seem to work.
You can change today text color in SKTools (download free trial). It is in Tune Up - Colors.
But if you mean manila - I don't use it so I don't know how to change it
Yes, sorry, I mean the Today Screen / Home Screen in Manila...
Eiliv
I agree. It would be great to change at least the colours !
You must take the TF3d manila Files oft the Vodafone D2! White Screen with black letters...
Well, great! But how? Where? I've done a search for Vodafone D2, and the only relevant post I can find points to ppc.ch which seems to be a german site (greek to me)...
Can you please point me in the right direction?
Eil

What can we do?
Hi.. I've been searching around for a tool to edit or create the windows themes (tsk files) but I can't seem to find one anywhere (I did find one, but its not compatible with 6.5 - themegence).
Anybody knows of one we can use for 6.5 themes? Or knows of a way we can edit existing ones at least?
The main purpose would be to try to change a little one of the themes I use in order to solve a conflict it generates when using certain applications. Its the black theme (the stock one found in Omnia2, with the stock 6.5 rom). This theme has black backgrounds and when Im using communicator mobile I cannot see the text I typed after I send it bc it uses a black font as well. When Im typing I can see the letters, the replies I get from the others are also visible. This also happened with another app I used in one of its screens. I believe that its just a matter of changing the color of a specific text or background to solve the problem..
Any information/help will be greatly appreciated.
tks
