fonts for ppc

anyone know a good resource for ppc/pda fonts please.pref graffitti style
thanks

PPC uses exactly the same font format as desktop windows, so you can copy any font in your c:\windows\fonts folder to \windows (on the PPC) and it will work (after soft reset).
Also any sites with fonts for windows will do. (Sorry, don't know any myself)

cheers mate,i hadnt realised they were the same
thanks

Thanks for that link - I use the Tempus Sans itc font myself on my device and it works well as a graffiti font.

Hitting error!
Happy new year everyone.
I just started to use Dopod 838 Pro about 3 weeks ago, and I have this problem :
1.) I like to use this font - Times New Roman, and when I tried to copy ALL the four TTF files (TIMES / TIMESI / TIMESBD / TIMESBI) from my notebook /Windows/Fonts folder to PDA's /Windows/Fonts, I hit error when come to Sync process :
Cannot copy 'TIMESI.TTF'. Make sure your mobile device has sufficient memory, that the file is not set as read-only, and that you have permission to copy this file type.
Why am I hitting this error (for ALL the four TTF files)? However, I'm still able to use the fonts (normal / italic / bold / bold+italic). Is there anyway to get rid of this error? Is there any step I have missed out for copying true type fonts from computer to PDA? Anyone out there care to help? Thank you very much in advance.

Stupid question but did you actually check the size?
On systems with many locales or Asian fonts one TTF file can reach 2MB.
It is possible that you are running out of storage memory.
Also, if the files already exist on your device you would not be able to copy over them.

I've already checked on the font size when the errors were prompted (as follow) :
TIMES - 399K
TIMESBD - 389K
TIMESBI - 234K
TIMESI - 242K
I've copied all those four files into \Windows\Fonts, and I'm able to use the fonts in the program, ie. to change it in Excel files. I have more than enough space in my device : Storage Free (25.05 MB) & Program Free (average 25MB most of the time). But I just don't understand this error was hit!?
Before I copied the TTF files into my device, I'm very sure there was no such fonts pre-loaded, so it couldn't be duplication issue.
I'm really scratching my head these days to find out the solution!

It may be activesync thats kicking up the error - copy the fonts directly to storage card via a card reader or wm5torage and copy fonts to windows\fonts using total commander or gsfinder file explorers.

This is probabley another stupid question but once you've added new fonts into a ppc where do you change the default font??
I'm using a tytn and can't find anywhere other than a spb diary setting.

I have just tried your method (deleted the fonts before I re-copied directly without using sync options), but still hitting the stupid error!!
I gave up! I just leave the error there, it shown 4 Unresolved Items. But I still managed to use the fonts when editing my files in the device. And no problem also for me to continue sync the rest.
Just hope there's a solution one fine day!

There are numerous references to the tahoma font in the registry it would be a bit laborious to change all the references but possible using search in phm regedit look for tahoma. make sure you know what your doing and have a backup of your registry and device.
Or you could overwrite tahoma.ttf and the bold version with a font renamed to tahoma.ttf - i tried it in the past and it worked.
There is an app pocket tweak but it only changes some of the default fonts.

Thanks anyway, everyone!
Hope there is a solution one fine day, any other advice/guides would be very much appreciated.

Sorry where did you delete the fonts from and did you manage to get the fonts onto the storage card? You cant overwrite or delete the fonts in the windows\fonts directory on the device whithout renaming i.e font.tt instead of font.ttf and resetting and then delete or add the new font. Hope that helps

Well... I can't really remember how I deleted the fonts...
I did hit an error when trying to delete the fonts inside my PDA \Windows\Fonts, so what I did was CUT the four files from the \Windows\Fonts to \My Documents and deleted them from the \My Documents folder.
After removing the TTF files, I changed the Sync options to exclude FILES from being sync. Then I sent ALL the four files to my PDA directly via Bluebooth. At first I thought I could fool around with the ActiveSync, but after sending the files (via BT) which eventually stored into PDA's \My Documents folder as well, I CUT the files and pasted them into \Windows\Fonts. There wasn't any error before I resumed the FILES sync option, unfortunately... after I have revert the FILES sync option, the error re-occured again.
Nevertheless, as I've mentioned, I still able to use the TIMES fonts for my Excel files. I'm trying to browse through MSDN Library website ( http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/dnanchor/html/WinMobile_TechArticles.asp )to find out the solution.
Cheers.

The only way I know is to move them into a different folder. If you REALLY don't want them to show up, you could zip them up and delete the originals. They's about as good as I can suggest I'm afraid. Either that, or stop taking pictures of your girlfriend/gentials lol.

Too much porn on your phone, am I right guys?
Did u try to hide them with total commander or other file manager?

Changing the file attributes doesn't help. The album apps still show them. This is one of the things that bugged me when I made my "Hide Folders" app. It became a little pointless when certain applications didn't care about the "hidden" attribute.

Hi there
I use a Software named "Secubox". With this, i can create a virtual storage card which I can mount and unmount if i need it.
Its also encryptet, so the data stored there is secure and you have no access, if you don't have the password...
Works nice on my HD2, the only solution for this kind of data ;-)
else: put your pictures in a subfolder in Program Files... Album will show them only if you browse there....

Tip with the Program folder does it for me ! thank you!

Hi,photos in touchflo3D come by default from DCIM folder on your storage card . You can create a new folder called from example DCIM2 an put here photos that you don't want to see in the Touchflo3D .

That works for the very front of the GUI, but if you click on albums, you get to see the folders with images in them. I believe the above suggestion of putting your images in a program files sub-folder stops that happening.
Also, if you were to use the pictures & videos app, you can browse the folders all over the phone, so it's still not 100%. I think the suggestion of a secure, encrypted area is the most secure of the lot.
Either that or take my previous advice, and stop taking c**k shots lol.

Hi, I wrote the following script for my TP2 which did the trick. You need to have Mortscript installed.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=548841

Hide Photos
Not sure if this helps but what I do is :
I have on the SD card, a folder with all my data in called imaginatively Data.
In there I have Videos, Photos, Documents, and Hidden.
And pictures I don't want to be seen in Album, I put in the hidden folder.
Then in Total Commander :
Select the folder
Click File
Then >>>>>
Then Properties
This allows you to adjust the attributes.
Click Hidden, and click Recurse subdirs. (If you don't do the recurse, it will hide the folder but NOT the images within).
Then click OK.
Reverse the process when you want to get them back.
It's like 5 clicks to hide, and 5 to get them back.
No need to rename or anything, I found it works for me.

Hi,
create a new folder for private pictures and add to Album ignored list.
Example
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\HTCAlbum\Ignored]
"Maps from TomTom"="\\Storage Card\\Western*"
"TomTom"="\\Storage Card\\Navigator"
"Musik"="\\Storage Card\\Musik"
"MSMetaData"="\\Storage Card\\MSMetaData"
"Camera"="\\My Documents\\Templates"
"MMS"="\\My Documents\\UAContents"
[COLOR="Red"]"Private"="\\Storage Card\\Private Pictures"[/COLOR]
with friendly greet

yep
the upper post doesn't work, but no doubt the easiest way to do it is posted up by jaknife with recurse subfolders hide method

Another solution.. in the thread [REF]*Leo Hints & Tips*, at the tip no 64:
"64. Disable Unwanted Folders From Showing in HTC Album
Don't you find it annoying that HTC Album Shows lots of images you don't need to see when you select Albums like GPS poi icons? Now you can tell HTC Album to ignore certain folders.
Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/HTC/HTCAlbum/Ignored and add a NEW STRING VALUE
Eg if there is iGO8 in the root of the Storage Card you would create a NEW STRING VALUE with Value name iGO8 and Value Data \Storage Card\iGO8
This will include all subfolders inside the iGO8 folder. Save and reset."

works only in HTC Album, not manila interface
Hi,
Thanks to starbase64 and traianboala , I have tried the ignore string key, and works fine in albums program of HTC, but the images still appear on manila Photos & Videos (that is on the manila interface) any solution or another ignore string / list for the manila interface?

Tutotrial: How to add Category Folder Quick Links to your Home Tab.

I have been wanting to add folders for some time to my quicklinks. I researched and researched.
I came across this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=576232
However it only dealt with a few categories.
So I have created new .lnk files and asscociated them with .png folder icons and created the necessary registry files.
This will work if you have 9, 12 or 16 Quick Links. For 20 Quick Links I think it will still work but you have to assign the Quick Links yourself.
Just unzip the attached file, read the read me and copy the Programs Folder to your phone and inport the enclosed registry entry too. Reset.

great idea! i wondered why 20 quicklinks are enough for all people here. i just have installed a few apps and games and my quicklink bar is full!
are you going to make the quicklinks for the 20 icon bar?

Great work, thanks.

If 25 links is enough for you? See this thread, from the same guy who created the 20 links on Home tab.

thanks, i've already seen the 25 link thread! i think it will be more flexible with folder links to group games etc. but maybe i'm going to use both tweaks:
normal links for most important apps and folder links for games, system information and so on...

Bit of a noob question but why can't you just create links to the default folders and then run these. I tried this but it always says fails to open "games application".

Just to add to my last, I have an HD with 2.5.1922011 Nrgz ROM but can't seem to import the registry settings. Have used TRE and it states that registry import was successful but to no avail. I have tried hand modifying the entries but still not working. Am I missing something???

Not working
Changed the registry to my portuguese ROM and nothing!

Maybe this only works on WWE roms because of the registry names. If importing the registry does not work for you, try just adding the folders manually to your quick links in the normal way you would add apps. just look fit the folder.link file in the list. let me know.

This is exactly what happens to me and my ROM is WWE. I can link the folder but it will not open. Tried manually editing the registry but without success. There must be another step but for the life of me I can't figure it out and it's driving me crazy!! This should be simple but HTC make it extremely difficult.

another approach
Hi!
I had the very same problem.
The recommendations given here, I use too, but I remembered a small program usually used for maintaining a directory organisation with PortableApps on the PC. It just uses its own name (like 'games.exe') extracts the '.exe' out of it and opens the reaining 'games' as a directory. I found this was a brute, but very useful solution to the problem. So finally I did that app for mobile devices on my own. It is written in C#. Prerequisites are compact framework 3.5.
In my opinion its only drawback is, that it uses the file-explorer as a platform to view the directory. I would like the HTC view with icons more, but I don't know, how to call the required code to do so.
Personally I have installed 4 instances of the program (240kb) on the storage-card and created the links to them in the startmenu-folder. This works fine with directlinks.
Note: Only subfolders in /windows/startmenu/programs are opened! For other needs the source code is easily changeable.
Here comes a short description:
----------------------------------------------------------------
Prerequisites: Microsoft Compact Framework 3.5.
Install and usage description:
MobDir.Cab installs the file MobDir.exe into your 'prorams' directory.
Since MobDir reads in its very own name to function, it is of utmost importance to RENAME MobDir.exe to a directory name, that fits for your environment!
MobDir starts a File-Explorer directly in a directory that resides in your /windows/start menu/programs
directory.
e.g.: There is a dir called 'games' in your 'programs' directory of 'start menu', that contains all the links to your games on the device. Rename MobDir.Exe accordingly into 'games.exe'. If the program is already installed in your 'start menu/programs' directory, there is not much more to do for you. Simply select games.exe in your directlinks. There you have a directory-icon labeled 'games' then which, when clicked, opens the file-explorer in your games directory. If games.exe resides on your starage card, you have to create a games.lnk into the 'start menu/programs' directory first.
Of course, if you have more subdirectories in your 'start menu/programs' folder, which is most likely the case ('apps', 'tools' for instance), just copy the file MobDir.Exe under these names to your device. In this example as apps.exe and tools.exe. The rest is the same as written beforehand.
Sounds more complicated as it is, just try it, it's simple.
Note: The way it works can be followed by watching the source code. It first reads in its own filename (e.g.: 'games.exe'). Then it extracts the '.exe' out of the name (leaving a 'games'). Right after it looks for your current localized '/windows/start menu/programs/' path and adds the string to it, which we extracted beforehand. So we have a path 'windows/start menu/programs/games'. Finally the file-explorer is called with that path as a parameter.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Here is the source-code:
Code:
using System;
namespace MobDir
{
static class Program
{
[MTAThread]
static void Main()
{
string cFileNameSelf="Use this Base-Code as a sample. Written in '2010 bei D.Bos";
try
{
//read out own filename and strip out ".EXE"
cFileNameSelf = AppDomain.CurrentDomain.FriendlyName.ToUpper().Replace(".EXE", "");
//start File-Explorer, given the path to /windows/startmenu/programs/ + <NameSelf>
System.Diagnostics.Process p = System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("fexplore.exe", ReadSpecialFolder("Programs") + "\\" + cFileNameSelf + "\\");
p.WaitForExit();
}
catch (System.Exception e)
{
System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox.Show("Problem with <" + cFileNameSelf + ">!\n" + e.Message);
}
}
public static string ReadSpecialFolder(string cVarName)
{
return Environment.GetFolderPath((Environment.SpecialFolder)Enum.Parse(typeof(Environment.SpecialFolder), cVarName, true));
}
}
}
-----------------------------------------------------------
And finally: The file MobDir.Cab is attached to this posting.
Hopefully you can make some use of it.

Sense photo viewer

I Wanted to know if there was any way to change the way the sense photo viewer scanned for files. For example could I get it to only show photos in a specific folder on my SD card. Reason being I have created a separate folder called contacts and I do not want it to display the photos in there.
Thanks

Same question, looking for reply.

yes you can, as far as I know .. go to the folder that you want to show through the Albums then choice the folder Menu>>Set Album as Favorite.
Hope this help

64. Disable Unwanted Folders From Showing in HTC Album
Don't you find it annoying that HTC Album Shows lots of images you don't need to see when you select Albums like GPS poi icons? Now you can tell HTC Album to ignore certain folders.
Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/HTC/HTCAlbum/Ignored and add a NEW STRING VALUE
Eg if there is iGO8 in the root of the Storage Card you would create a NEW STRING VALUE with Value name iGO8 and Value Data \Storage Card\iGO8
This will include all subfolders inside the iGO8 folder. Save and reset.
This will work. I think it would be much more helpful if nothing was shown in the photo except the folders you actually wanted. Having to exclude folders seems like a long process.
But thanks for the fast reply, Ive got something to do at work now

[MOD] Custom S Note template

Hi folks.
I don't quite like any of the provided templates in S notes. And frankly I think Samsung should allow us to create templates. Anyways...
I have been searching quite a while for this but could not find a suitable solution. Hence, I decided to check it out myself.
Basically, it's pretty simple, replacing files within an apk. Not sure if this has been explored before though..
Requirement:
1) Rooted device with any file explorer to read/write system files
2) WinRAR
Steps:
1) Create a template.
Simple create a blank note "blank.snb" that you would like to use as a template. You can have your required background, pattern, color, etc. Save it.
2) Copy out this "blank.snb" into your PC. Notes location on device is "\sdcard\S Note" internal storage.
3) Copy out S notes APK into your PC. Location: "\system\app\Snote_wxga.apk"
IMPORTANT: Make extra copies of this apk, in case the one you're editing screws up!
4) Rename the "Snote_wxga.apk" to "Snote_wxga.rar" and open it with winRAR.
5) In winRAR, browse to "\assets\templates" and delete "magazine.snb" - more info on this below
6) Rename the "blank.snb" from step (2) into "magazine.snb"
7) Drag this new "magazine.snb" into winRAR location "\assets\templates" of "Snote_wxga.rar". Close winRAR.
Your file "Snote_wxga.rar" should now be updated.
8) Rename back "Snote_wxga.rar" to "Snote_wxga.apk"
9) Copy this "Snote_wxga.apk" back into "\system\app\" of your device.
NOTE: Your device may restart in this process.
10) Restart your device if it already hasn't.
11) Open your Snotes. Your "Magazine" template will now be your custom template that you created.
Notes:
i) I tried adding a new snb into the APK but that was not registered as a new template. This is why I had to replace an existing template with my custom one. I happen to choose "Magazine". I believe others should work also. I did not experiment replacing more files.
ii) The thumbnail does not change though. It still has the magazine thumbnail. Not a major issue for me as I always pre-select my template when I create new notes. For those who have any ideas to change this, pls do share.
iii) This little mod worked for me and I didn't find time to explore further as this meet my needs. I do not take responsibility if your device decides to misbehave. So do remember to backup the "Snote_wxga.apk", or better still, perform a nandroid backup.
Cheers! :good:

Thank you for this tip. I'll try later when I'm at my computer. Could you upload some templates you made?

I have attached the one which I'm using, renamed to "magazine.snb".
It's a simple blank note, white background with faint lines across.

Ok.. there seems to be a problem. When I add pages, it goes back to an empty memo template.
So now I have notes with different cover pages.. Hmmmm

Alright! With a little bit of trial-and-error, I finally got the right template that behaves correctly on every page.
The trick was first to take a "golden template", which would say is "memo", since it's the simplest and every page is constant. I opened it up (renaming the snb file to rar) and I replaced it with my background images (already generated from my template I created above).
So basically, this is still a "memo" template, but with a different background.
This time, I replaced the birthday template with this one. I've attached the template and a thumbnail as well. Now, every page has my background and color!

As an alternative: it is also possible to modify downloaded note templates, instead of modifying the apk - I've put the description here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2330470

Is it possible to get *. snb files from Note 3's ,,s note" apk and put them inside original Note 8,0's apk file?
If yes, can anyone having Note 3 attach apk file here so we can extract templates and put them into our apk's?
