For those who hate big fonts. - Touch Pro, Fuze General

Hi to all with sharp eyes
I spend some times to fix my windows mobile.
I use pen so finger frendly menus and buttons doesn't mater.
First
Load There from WM 6.1
Menus:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GWE\Menu\PopFnt
set Ht (height) to 800
Bars :
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GWE\Menu\BarFnt
set Ht (height) to 800
Tree: (with plus i minus)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GWE\Commctrl
TreeviewExtraItemSpace to 1
TreeviewPlusMinus to 10
Buttons :
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GWE\Button
set FontWeight to 600
This is for now.

After some days of use energyrom stable version of windows 6.5 and this registry keys I can say that things become more confortable.
Can someone tell me about usefull program for scroll useing the touch pad over the buttons pad.
I try with Gscroll but it is so stupid and some annoying features can't be disable.
Tweaks with Diamond tweaks tools seems to not work for me (in fring user list for example.)

HELP : bad display of picture in Today's screen

Hello,
I just change my HTC Cruise for a new one (accident) and I have a problem with the new one :
The picture of my desktop seems not clear (like if there is a grey film on it).
More I can't modify my toolbar color.
I see this problem only on Today
I am on SFR, Windows Mobile 6 Professionnel
ROM Version : 1.25.163.3 FRE
ROM date :18/12/07
Radio : 1.58.21.23
Protocole : 25.65.30.04H
If you set a background through the home screen menu in settings then it defaults the background to 65% opacity.
To get around this open the image's context menu (select and hold) from the file explorer and set it as the today background through there, it will let you set the opacity (which you want to set to 0 if you want a normal image).
Hello,
Thanks a lot !
Perfect now.

Raphael Tweaks

EDIT: This thread is not being made sticky by the Moderators for a good reason, so please stop asking them to. I have added a link to it to the wiki, and you can always subscribe to the thread for updates.....
I thought I'd try some of the diamond tweaks on the Raphael, just to see if any would work, and though i kinda figured they all would, it seems that in my particular case, some of them didn't, or at least didn't seem to.
ROM 1.66.405.1 WWE
Radio 1.02.25.11
RAPH100
Boost TFL3D Performance --> Using Advanced Config, change File system cache to 8mb and file system filter cache to 131072
Tested and works a treat. TF3D is sluggish and prone to long pauses before tweak, much faster afterwards
Boost TFL3D Performance --> HKLM\System\Storagemanager\Fatfs and change key Cachesize from 16384 to 32768
Much quicker than number 1 on it’s own, now stonkingly fast.
Wake Up on New SMS --> HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL : DisableSMSWakeUpEvent <-- set to "1" by default. Change value to "0"
The Raphael (and the diamond on 1.93) now ring and vibrate for incoming SMS, so this is not really necessary, but will turn the screen on if that’s what you want (I personally don’t).
Switch Mute Call on phone flipped face down: HKLM\Software\HTC\PHONE : FaceDownMuteRing: change value to "0"
Working correctly
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)
Did this using schaps advanced config and it does not seem to make any difference whatsoever.
Prevent screen switching off during phone call --> HKEY_Local_Machine\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL\EnableFastD ormantDisplayDuringCall to 0 (Note: does not work on all ROMs) Doesn’t work
AND (tested and works on EU ROMs thanks to Rod65)
HKCU\ControlPanel\Phone\Sleep switch value from 1 to 0 Doesn’t work
These failed to work individually and also when applied as a pair. No use on this Raphael ROM.
HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL\FastDormancyRule=0 doesn’t work either.
EDIT: this kinda worked when I tried it on the 1.90.405.1 ROM. the screen turns off once, but once you turn it back on, it stays on. YMMV.
Set HTC Album X button to close not minimize: ok_minimize change value to 0
Not needed any more. When task manager is set to close programs with the x button, album shuts correctly. Youtube on the other hand, doesn’t.
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.
Not needed any more. Start>settings>system>touchflo. Untick Show system status screen when status icons are tapped
Turn off startup aninmation and sound: HKEY_Local_Machine\Software\HTC\HTCAnimation\ -> rename both "StartupGif" and "StartupWav" to other names
Works, but does not speed up boot time.
Enable GPS photo: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\Camera\P10 -> change the value "enabled" from 0 to 1
Works
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
No difference that I noticed, but no adverse affects either.
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
Works fine. Can also be done in Schaps advanced config.
More Camera Modes:
To Enable 'Burst': HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\Camera\P6 -> change the value "enabled" from 0 to 1
Works. Keep button pressed down to take more pictures
To Enable 'Sport': HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\Camera\P8 -> change the value "enabled" from 0 to 1
Works. Takes 5 pictures in quick succession
To Enable 'Video Share': HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\Camera\P9 -> change the value "enabled" from 0 to 1
Works
Enable HSUPA:
HKLM\Software\HTC\AdvancedNetwork\SupportHSUPA =change it to 1
Already enabled, so no need for this.
Remove orphan icons and shortcuts - http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...97&postcount=3
Erm, why not just delete them in File explorer for F***s sake??
Four icons in a row in WM Programs/Settings screens - http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...4&postcount=16
Works a treat and looks pretty good too!
Remove Vertical and Horizontal Scrollbars
For the horizontal (bottom) scrollbar:
HKLM\System\GWE\cyHScr = 0 (DWORD decimal)
For the vertical (right) scrollbar:
HKLM\System\GWE\cxVScr = 0 (DWORD decimal)
Slight graphical distortion at the edge of the screen, but they are gone.
Disable SMS Conversation in WM 6.X
In Registry Editor: Create a folder named "OEM" in "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Settin gs"
In the new "OEM" folder, make a new DWORD key called "SMSInboxThreadingDisabled" and give it a value of "1"
OEM folder already exists, and adding the key to this folder works a treat, although any messages already in the system are lost. Back them up using something like PIM backup first.
I didn't get a chance to try them all as i only have the Raphael for a very limited time, so i tried the ones i was interested in first. I have the device for a few more days yet (Still allowed to borrow it from work for the time being) so i may try a few more and update this later on.
Need to make the most of my time here before I leave my job and don't get access to the devices again!
EDIT: more have been added and tried.

Hope the OP won't mind me popping in another post.
Since this is a sticky I decided to make it a little easier to come by the reg entries. I copy pasted all the registry entries found in the thread up to 23-9-09. I have not tested any of these reg entries so be sure to read the thread if you have doubts about the entries.
Boost TFL3D Performance:
HKLM\System\Storagemanager\Fatfs and change key Cachesize from 16384 to 32768
Thanks to Tiggles
SIP responsiveness boost:
1. Export HKCR\CLSID (will save to a *.reg file)
2. Del or Rename HKCR\CLSID
3. Import the backup of HKCR\CLSID
Turn off your device about 15 sec and reset

Thanks to tahdor
Thank you for testing
Any comments on the device itself. Especially things that differ from the Diamond e.g. the keyborad quality, sliding mechanism, landscape touchflo, camera with flash...
LED camera light is woefully awful, as is every LED on HTC phones (Not that there have been many)
Keyboard is nice and clicky, and a godsend after the horrors of an athena keyboard. Buttons are well shaped and even though they are quite close together and i have fat fingers, i only have a problem when typing the letter A, where i keep going one key too far left and hitting the caps lock instead.
Sliding mechanism on mine feels pretty solid, and is semi-automatic like the one on the p4350, and slides into place with a satisfying click.
As Arne Hess said on the unwired, the landscape touchflo is pretty basic, just a screen with 8 icons on it, and it does look pretty bland, but it does the job well.
The only thing i have noticed about sliding out the keyboard (and this may be because it is an early ROM) is that when i slide out the keyboard to type something, i have to wait a second or so for the cursor to start flashing. if i press a key straight away, then no matter what program i am in, it jumps to the landscape touchflo.
If i wait for the cursor to start flashing (at most a second), then it works perfectly.
Just a little thing, and nothing that annoys me, but i know it may annoy some people.
Am I allowed to ask how you happened across a Raphael before its release? I'd like to get my hands on one however possible to test that damn AT&T ROM and see how goes.
Same way the other guys here get devices before they are released.
Although i won;'t have it for much longer, maybe another week if i am lucky.
This was developed for the HTC Touch Diamond but works flawlessly on the Pro (Raphael).

The cab file for adding the call history tab didn't seem to work for me. i just got stuck on the 'tap here to launch TF3D' page. as soon as i uninstalled it, tf3d came back.
I might try this and see how it works.

thanks...which version though? the active sync one wont work and the cab file gives me arm, mips etc.
Has anyone with a UK Raphael with the following specs tried the above tweaks.
ROM Version: 1.90.405.1 WWE
ROM Date: 08/01/08
Radio Version: 1.02.25.19
Protocol Vesion: 52.33.25.17U
I have a UK HTC Touch Pro with the above ROM etc and my TouchFlo seems pretty quick as it is.
Just wondering if applying the tweask when you're ok would cause any issues.
My "old" networkplugin (JUVS HTC Network Plugin) installs on the touch pro, but I can't find it on the menu.
Anyone ?

How to install:
1. Disable touch flo 3d.
like this: goto Start->Settings->Today->Items-> Remove the "v" from Touchflo 3d.
2. Intall my cab (Thanks for Fabliv and Bepe for the idea and files):
if you have rom 1.93.831.1 WWE:
http://rapidshare.com/files/132273300/Nadavi_Nadavi-Call_History_Diamond_TouchFlo.cab
if you have rom 1.37..xxx.x WWE:
http://rapidshare.com/files/132350894/Nadavi_1.37__Nadavi-Call_History_Diamond_TouchFlo.cab
3. soft reset.
4. Put Touch flo 3d back on, Same as step 1.
The result:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",

(thanks Fabilv for the image).
Note: This will only work if you have the original Theme, did not tested it with other themes (o2,Vodafone,Orange)...

DO NOT ENABLE CLEARTYPE IN LANDSCAPE MODE WITH ADVANCED CONFIG ON THE RAPHAEL!
On my one it appeared to work fine, but I've just realised it causes a problem when typing in landscape mode on certain programs including entering urls in Opera - you can't actually see what you're typing at all until you go back to portrait mode!
It might be worth creating a separate thread for this to draw everyone's attention to it (I'll leave that up to the mods to decide), cos I enabled it straight away (well about an hour after I started playing with my Touch Pro)
I noticed the problem Friday night, but I've only just discovered what's causing it. I did a hard reset and starting doing tweaks one by one and soft resetting after each one, it's definitely cleartype in landscape that causes the problem.

(Tweak) Real fullscreen browsing on HD2!!

Hi guys!
Frustrated with the Opera browser on the HD2, I decided to take matters into my own hands
What really bugged me was the inability to see the whole page when browsing the web, and by that I mean go fullscreen… This is possible on the iPhone, Nexus one, Hero, Pre etc. but not on the HD2!
The reason behind all this: Virtual Screen Width….
The resolution on, lets say the iPhone, is poor 480x320… Most webpages are AT LEAST coded in 1024x768…
The reason why the iPhone, with its inferior resolution, is able to go fullscreen on most webpages, is because Safari lets the iPhone use Virtual Screen Width… "Virtual" is the keyword here …
On the HD2 we are blessed with the wonderful native resolution at 800x400 pixels .. This is all great, but there is one problem: Its not 1024, 1156 or 1280… Its 800x400… = 800 in width = crippled page view!
The problem is that Opera, on default, isn't configured with any sort of "virtual" screen width… It is 800 pixels all the way…
But!
We can activate the Virtual Screen Width, and thereby go fullscreen on any webpage= No more crippled web browsing!
Go to:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Opera\Prefs\Adaptative Zoom]
Change "Virtual Screen Width" from "800" (The native screen width) to "1024", "1152", "1280", "1366" or whatever suits your browsing needs
My configuration is like this (Gives a good overview, without destroying visibility):
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Opera\Prefs\Adaptative Zoom]
Virtual Screen Width: 1024
Hope you guys enjoy
Update: Some people are experiencing some problems with "double tab to zoom"... This most likely has to do with another tweak in relation to "Default Zoom" in [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Opera\Prefs\Adaptative Zoom] .... If you have changed this value, please change it back to value "175"... My browsing experience is perfect... Fullscreen, double tab, smooth etc. To me the HD2 is now a real internet device
Update 2: Here are some other tweaks, provided by astrodemoniac in another thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=626157
I post it here to create a better overview of whats possible "tweaking" wise on the Opera Browser:
Increase Scrolling FPS:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Opera\Info]
PanFps=50
Increase Zooming FPS:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Opera\Info]
ZoomFps=50
Lower Default Zoom:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Opera\Prefs\Adaptative Zoom]
Default Zoom=100 (I would advise to just keep it on 175, as it works perfectly with my fullscreen tweak.. Some people lose "double tab to zoom" when editing this value.. Keep it on 175!!
+ these tweaks (mainly from tboy2000):
Increase the font cache for displaying text quicker:
HKLM\Software\Opera\Info\

Thx!
I'm not sure I got this right...
- Does your tweak work on landscape or portrait? Because this thread here already talks about full screen in, I believe, portrait views. Will you tweak have influence on both portrait and landsape?
- Could you make a screen capture, so we can understand? (BTW, BsB tweak use very simple ways to make screen captures)

It works in both portrait and landscape.. The tweak you refer to adjusts the zoom levels... Not the visual width....
You can see "my" tweak as the key to full screen browsing like on your laptop or whatever... It makes your screen "believe" its actually, lets say 1024 in width, instead of 800... An amazing difference.. Try it out and you will never go back
Nice find!! The full page view is indeed awesome!
But i noticed that double tap zooming doesn't work anymore. But who cares! The fullpage view matters more.
Thanks!
thanks
but it lose the double tap zoom function
Niiiice!!!
I dont lose double tap zooming..!!
(maybe cause i applied all the tweaks for smoothness etc plus this one in the latest opera from 1.67 rom..found here i think!)

Maybe is due to opera build. Mine is 9.7 build 35627. I think I probably should upgrade to the newer build.
Edit :
The double tap zooming is gone when this tweak is used with this,
Lower Default Zoom (Really takes advantage of the HD2 beautiful screen)
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Opera\Prefs\Adaptative Zoom]
Default Zoom=100
Simply change the default zoom back to 130 and double tap zooming will work again.

I also loose double tap to zoom, but only in portrait mode. In landscape it is ok. I set the screen width to 1024. Also my registry key is called 'Virtual Screen Width' not 'Visual Screen Width'
My opera build is 9.7 build 35577. I am on ROM 1.48.405.2 WWE
BTW my original value for the Default Zoom is 175 not 130. I have tried using 130 but it doesn't work. The only way it seems to get the double tap to work in portrait mode is to change the screen width back to 800.
Pinch zooms works ok though.
Are we actually talking about the "VIRTUAL SCREEN WIDTH"
Changed the setting to 1024, looks good. Thanks for the tip
+1 double tap zoom is gone

Nomination
A real beauty, this tweak. Thanks for sharing.
I would like to nominate this tweak, together with the default zoom-level tweak, for a Grammy Award in the category `best Opera tweaks´
EDIT: added a little cab that changes the "Virtual Screen Width" to 1024. The benefit of using a cab is that when u unistall the cab, the default value is restored. (@ OP: feel free to attach this cab to your own post. The author rights are all yours )

i would actually advise people that those who want to still be able to use double tap zoom to not use this cab.
By default, 1024 disables double tap.
I recommend 1023, or better, 1000.
I figured this trick not too long ago.
See my post. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5510142&postcount=3
Not fully related, but is there a way to disable the soft buttons always appearing during page loading? I find it highly annoying that it always brings the buttons and address bar up, rescaling the page at the same time, and making it a pain to scroll during loading... I only need those if I press the bottom right "menu" button, not all the time automatically...

I have no problems with the double-tap zoom feature. I'm on opera 9.7 35758. What version are you running? (sounds like a weird bug to me)
Changed it to 1280... look awesome, still have my double-tap. Haven't updated my Opera build yet.
Great, it really works fine and should have been the default parameters for Opera!!! I really can't understand why a community like ours is able to change some simple numbers and get the best out of our HD2 ! Anyway, here are the tweaks I use for Opera from now on:
Fullscreen view on portrait and landscape (actually "Full Width")
This enable a webpage to be fully seen when you first load the page.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Opera\Prefs\Adaptative Zoom
Visual Screen Width = 1000
(default was 800 ??)
(real full screen = 1024, but with this, double-tap zoom does not work anymore)

My Opera build is also the latest, from the leaked ROM 1.67 found here. With this new build, though, even more tweaks are needed... because I'm using the official HTC ROM 1.66
Enable this new Opera to open favorites on the Sense internet tab

Enable this new Opera to download files on Storage Card

(I use a french ROM and the latest official ROM 1.66 translates the word "storage card" to french, making Opera not able to know where the microSD card. This tweak solves it)
And finally, I also use BsB tweak 1.6 to enable more tabs for Opera and to enable link click even when zoomed out...
Damn... I think we really need some BIG CAB to easily change this all... I just don't know how to make it. Help
I changed my pinch zoom framerate to 50 the other day, and yes, it's much better... but is there a way to increase the rate of zooming. I don;t like having to pinch several times when on my 3GS I only have to do it once. I know I can just double-tap, but still...

[MOD] Smaller HTCMenus (QVGA) + Customization

Since is quite annoying scrolling in Menus when there are more than 6 tiles/options, I've managed to increase the number of tiles in HTC Menus from 6 rows to 8 in portrait mode (and from 4 rows to 5 in landscape mode) decreasing the height of tiles from 42 pixels to 34 (finger-friendly enough as you see in images below ).
Previous Important Note
Although HTC Menus should work ONLY under Manil2D, you can work with HTC Menus WITHOUT Manila2D (instead of WM Menus by default) installing the file UpL HTCMenus NO M2D.cab provided below. To restore to default WM Menus, just uninstall this cab.
All credits about this tweak in this post:
Code:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6641868&postcount=2
Instructions
Install UpL HTCMenus 8Rows BLUE QVGA.cab if you want blue selection colour or UpL HTCMenus 8Rows DEFAULT QVGA.cab for dark-brown default selection colour.
If you don't like the final result (and you didn't back up your modified registry keys/files before ), you can restore your registry keys and Menu settings by default installing UpL HTCMenus 6Rows Restore BLUE QVGA.cab in blue colour, or UpL HTCMenus 6Rows Restore DEFAULT QVGA.cab in dark-brown default colour.
Important Note
I tested it ONLY in my HTC Mega device (QVGA screen) and works like a charm. I don't know how it works in other QVGA devices and, of course, I'm not responsible of whatever happens in other devices or resolutions.
-----------------------------------------------
In the following post there is a brief explaination of the tweak/mod I've done.
Explaination
The Tweak/Mod consists mainly in:
-Resize HTCMenus.png height from 124pixels (1+42+42+42+1=124pixels) to 104pixels (1+34+34+34+1=104pixels) [or 80,9% (34pixels tile/42pixels tile=0,809)] in Windows folder
-Edit and change the registry keys as follows below:
Code:
HKLM,"SOFTWARE\HTC\HTCMenus","ItemHLTile"="10,[COLOR="Red"]34[/COLOR],0,0,11,22,33,44,55,66,77,88"
HKLM,"SOFTWARE\HTC\HTCMenus","ItemTile"="10,[COLOR="Red"]33[/COLOR],[COLOR="Red"]70[/COLOR],0,22,33,44,55,66,77"
HKLM,"SOFTWARE\HTC\HTCMenus","ItemClickHL"="10,[COLOR="Red"]34[/COLOR],[COLOR="Red"]35[/COLOR],0,11,22,33,44,55,66,77,88"
HKLM,"SOFTWARE\HTC\HTCMenus","ItemHL"="0,[COLOR="Red"]34[/COLOR],0,0"
HKLM,"SOFTWARE\HTC\HTCMenus","ItemHW"="220,280,[COLOR="Red"]33[/COLOR],[COLOR="Red"]34[/COLOR]"
HKLM,"SOFTWARE\HTC\HTCMenus","LandscapeMaxItemCount"=[COLOR="Red"]5[/COLOR]
HKLM,"SOFTWARE\HTC\HTCMenus","PortraitMaxItemCount"=[COLOR="Red"]8[/COLOR]
where you change only the following registry values:
From 4 to 5 tiles in Landscape mode
From 6 to 8 tiles in Portrait mode
From 41 to 33 pixels size
From 42 to 34 pixels size
From 43 to 35 pixels size
From 86 to 70 because there starts the 3rd. row (white tiles) in default "HTCMenus.png" (43pixels+43pixels=86pixels) that is (35pixels+35pixels=70pixels) in new "HTCMenus.png"
-And finally, replace your new "HTCMenus.png" in Windows folder after a backup of your previous "HTCMenus.png" to restore if necessary.
Customizations (to do)
So you can easily resize your HTCMenus in the way it fits better to you.
You can use this thread to change "HTCMenus.png" file in size, color and "effects", and the registry keys involved (including fonts not changed above)
I can start with the registry keys written/changed above and my resized "HTCMenus.png" attached below.
Enjoy it!
Great idea and thanks for your work...will try when I get back from business trip.
Confirmed works......!!
my htc is better than before. thank you.
thankss. will try it..
Could you make some change to htcmenus and make it work in new ui such as 23123 and so on
Thank you

Instructions
I've included 2 cabs. Install the first one. If you don't like the final result (and you didn't back up your modified registry keys/files before ), you can come back to HTC Mega Default Menu settings installing the second one.

Thanks for your landscape test!
My first 8 Rows .cab file supported 6 tiles in Landscape mode instead of the 5 tiles I wrote. I edited the 1st post and changed the Landscape registry of my 8 Rows cab file from 6 (tiles) to 5. Also, I included a new Landscape pic to see it in action.
I prefer to keep it in 5 tiles (in Landscape mode), because 6 tiles overwrite the taskbar a few pixels. Of course, feel free to change or edit the .cab file (or your registry) to your own like.

Sorry for my delay!
Check if you work under Manila2D (TouchFlo2D) in your device. This Menu should work ONLY under Manila2D. Otherwise, you'll see the default Windows Mobile Menu but not this HTC Menu.
But if tou want HTCMenus without Manila2D, please read carefully the edited 1st post.
Cheers!
Tested working without Manila... PERFECT!
Thnks a lot!!!
Very very very usefull app

[Q] Which environment allows to use small fonts, and ignores DPI ?

My old phone has a 4.3" screen, 544x960; the new one is 4.75, 1080x1920. The new phone is about 15% larger, and has 4 times more pixels; but, bue I read emails, or navigate in menus (like parameters), the new phones shows 10% less text and entries (up to 20% less). Both phones have the font set to small. I have compared Android system menus (like params) and setting menu in apps (same app on both). And in every single test case, the large screen shows less than the small one.
Stupid question: is it possible to ask Android to ignore DPI, and use really small fonts so that I don't have just 4 or 5 menu entries per screen, but rather 10-15 ?
Serious questions: which environment would allow me to custom graphical settings ? which ROM ?
I use ADW; it's a good start, but it's just a Launcher. It does not help for system menus, and menus in apps.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.theSushi.dpichanger
Changed from 480, to 390 ... and I am wonderfully happy !!!
The app is tricky to use; think 5 times before you "go". Read carefully options in the menu.
After entering a value, before clicking go, you need to select an entry in the menu on the left of go; the menu is hardly visible; bad contrast; i will complain to author.
