I don't know for sure, but I doubt it .That ★ is pretty special.
What you could do as a workaround:
1) keep the symbol somewhere convenient (e-mail, webpage or MS Office document stored on phone)
2) copy-paste it for each site you're trying to log in to.
3) tell Opera to save the username/password
Better than nothing, I guess...

I'd do that, but it doesnt actually recognize, I get that rectangle thing instead of the star

Only after pasting, or is the one you're trying to copy also being displayed like that?
If the original is also displayed as a rectangle, most likely the ★ is not present in any of the default fonts. You could try addin an extra font that contains the character somewhere on your HD2 and using font linking.
I have no idea where to look for a solution if the original ★ is displayed fine, but is just not pasted correctly though.

Just copy font from computer and past it to your windows mobile font folder. It is the same font.

would you care to elaborate? it wouldnt let me copy it, and theres was nothing in the windows>font folder on my phone to start with
Just copy the file from the font folder in your computer to your device, and then move it to \Windows using Total Commander or Resco.
Another possible solution - try to log in using this as your username:
Code:

Replace the exclamation mark (!) with a semicolon (;)

That's the HTML code for the star. I doubt that will work as it won't be decoded from HTML before the login process takes place.
Just one thing that comes to mind - when you copied and pasted it and got the rectangle in the login box, did you actually try to log in? I assume you did, but I only ask because it shouldn't matter whether you have the font or not - you just want the correct character. The font is only for visual purposes, but software will still read the character as exactly what it is, regardless of what it looks like.
thanks nsider, that did work but john now I think about I think I didnt bother trying to paste the square in, oh well, its sorted now ;D
I didint try it but maybe its the solution you are looking for.
1.Install finger keyboard and MyMobiler.
2. Connect your phone to your pc using active sync. My Mobilers should start and you can control your phone from your pc.
3. Open Finger Keyboard's config screen and at the shortcut tab chose one and rename it (lg for example).
4. Copy the star symbol from your pc into My Mobiler, in the value field of the shortcut.
5. Apply the changes to the finger keyboard, disconnect your phone and try using it.
Shortcuts in finger keyboard are activated by a long press of a button.
Let me know if it works.

I used Total Commander.
You can also transfer the css via Active Sync to the PC. Then remove the write protection and edit the file. Then save it to a different folder and copy it back to the device. That worked fine for me.

How did you get Total Commander to let you do this? I've been trying and had no luck so far. I've copied the file to a different directory on the phone and the PC, but I'm not having any luck overwriting the original file.
This is on the Cavalier though, but it shouldn't be any different.
Any help would be appreciated
Hi, In Total Commander you can switch into 2 window mode. You can copy and overwrite the css files from one windows to another. Similar as on PC.

Thanks, but I've tried that.
* I have the new CSS on my memory card.
* Have teh second window set to \Windows
* Select the new css file and go file-copy
* the "copy/move " window comes up and I hit OK
* conirmation window "overwrite: \windows\... with \storage card\..." and I hit "Overwrite"
* "Confirm" windows pops up saying "Cannot ccopy or move file!"
Is there anything I should have done first?
Do you have your Mail application switched off? Look at Task manager. Or turn Off/On phone and try it to copy again.
I've tried that, and still no go. So I need to make some security change?

Has anyone tried playing with the HTML templates to change the look entirely?

Hi everyone nice tip!!!! But I have 2 question:
if u please post all the read_style files in windows cause I edited everything and I have sone problems.
Second question:
I see the 7pt in sms and email inbox but when I write a sms the font remains bigger than 7 is it possible to change the font when I write a new sms too? Thanx!
pict
here itis the problem
This font hacks look great. Does anyone know how to shrink the fonts being used in the message list view and the folder lists? I find I can only see 4 message headers at a time on Wm6 / Q9.. Horrible use of space. Same with folders list, font is massive. I'm assuming it is one of the dozens of .css files in that windows directory.
@zipreddictive: ... edit the compose_style.(langcode).css ...
@tommytuna: ... it's impossible ... or you found a developer to write a new app for this
Hi - I edited the compose style and now the new message fonts look good to. Still can't figure out how to get the message list to tighten up. Argghh.. So useless with 4 messages at a time when you can easily get 6-7 with tightening up that screen.
I have installed Total Commander and I have a very simple question…. Where in the world do I find the registry editor please? I know its probably a very dumb question but I cannot find where it is… when I search for the strings to change, it doesn’t come up with anything…. Am I missing something?
And yes, I am new to this...
Thanks a mil
Here's how...
It took me awhile to figure this one out. In the navigation area at the top, type in "\\\" and hit enter. This will take you to the directory with the registry in it.

Stupid question, but do you download to your pc then move to the phone? or download straight to the phone?
The version I have has to be downloaded to the pc, then run the exe from the pc and it will put it the program on your phone via activesync.

If you go to the download page, you have the option to get either a Windows-based installer (.exe) or the .cab file that you can download and install directly on the phone. You want the ARM/XSCALE version.

Another route to find it is to go to the root folder (\), there you'll see a folder with the name \\Plugins. In there is where the plugins reside, with the registry editor as one of them.
Thanks guys, got it installed, I apologize for my stupidity when it comes to these phones, but I see posts that say to type "\\\" ....how in the sam hill do you type that out on the phone? All I can find is the / key.

Read the post before yours. There's a "\" button on the top right. You can use that to go to the "root". Then just double-tap "\\Plugins".
(BTW, you'll find "\" if you search a bit in the virtual keyboard: go numeric -> second page. It's not on the hardware keyboard though.)

Thanks ripper, I didn't realize there was a second page on the number keyboard, I was just trying to figure out how to go to any of the HKEY stuff, cuz its not listed with the others.
Going to continue with the noobness in this thead. I followed this tweek.
Boost TFL3D Performance --> HKLM\System\Storagemanager\Fatfs and change key Cachesize from 16384 to 32768
I used total commander and clicked on the cachesize and it was set to 0 when I first clicked on it, not 16384 is that right? Do I just put 32768 in that and close TC and reset?
Hi all, my first post!
Obviously u can tell by my nickname that i'm a long time symbian user, trying wm for the 1st time in a long long while.
Anyway, i was wondering if there's a way to change the file extension usingi the phone itself. Im trying to change a .zip to .theme but i cant figure out the proper way to do it. I know i can do this easily using a pc but im at work and cant do that stuff here, so im wondering if there's a way to do it using the phone without downloading another application to do it.
Oh, and yes, i did do a search for this already. Couldnt pinpoint exactly what im looking for.
Thanks!

No, it's just too obvious for most people to bother with. Go to the file you want to change, hold the stylus or your finger down on the and a menu will pop up. Scroll down to "rename". Then name it whatever you want.
Not so obvious if you read the entire question.

Renaming the file is not the issue. It's the extension.
I don't use resco, but it's trivial with total commander.

You will have to specify which registry key etc. you want to change (otherwise we cannot give you the appropriate instructions or .cab to do so..)
If you want to upgrade a T-Mobile HTC HD2, (to official or cooked rom) you will have to use HSPL.

you do not extract the cab files, the cab you copy to phone and execute them from there.

Hey there. Welcome to the WM
about the question you asked about the program named "audio manager",
for me it looks like a resolution issue that the specific programme is designed for a VGA resolution screen (square screen) which might not be compatable for the Leo's WVGA screen (wider screen).
All you need to do is get a VGA fix or simplily wait for the devs to release a WVGA version of the app.

Not anymore, i might have a solution for you
first get the image you want to use as an icon and resize it to be EXACTLY 256x256 and in .ico format
then click run in start menu and type regedit
allow UAC if needed
make backup of registry
if you want to just change the icon to know what it is, go to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.apk
if it isnt there, right click on the folder and create new key called .apk
check if the (default) entry is blank, if so, then create a new key in the same place as .apk and call it something.Assoc.APK (not tested)
in the new key, create a key called DefaultIcon, and in that create a REG_EXPAND_SZ and put the full path in quotes of the .ico file
tell me if it doesnt work and include screenshots
Thanks for the reply...whats I actually ended up doing is making an .ico of a droid and basically setting the file extension within windows to use that ico with any apk...thanks for the info above though
