hi there, at the moment im using a background for all pages type app on my phone but on certain wallpapers its very hard to read my sms's because of the white text which sometimes mingles in with backgrounds. im wanting to know if theres anything floating about that can put the text's into a box (as in when you view your emails) to make reading a bit easier......
thanks, have a nice day
come on England !!!!

Hello to all,
I am having a hard time reading the white call history page (see attached pic below) and was wondering how I can skin this? I'm not sure what this program is called so I couldn't find any skins searching
Also wondering if there is a way to skin pocket outlook, I really need a black background with white lettering to read comfortably with my visual impairment
Thanks for helping a blind guy out!
here is a pic of what I am talking about

Hi everyone!
I have just installed the tweak from the cab repository that allows your home tab background to be visible in all of the tabs... which I totally love!
The only problem is, if you choose a bright(ish) background, its very difficult to read a text message on the messages tab.
I was wondering, does anyone know of a way to add say, a PNG, that has a gradient/transparency fade behind the message text on the messages tab, as though it was a curtain kind of thing.
This would allow the background to show through, yet still allowing a message to be read!
Thanks for you help in advance. I'm pretty new to this all so I have not a clue about where to begin!
sat
that's a good idea, since i face the same problem
Or add an A4 paper behind the message, like in the email tab. That woul be really nice
if someone could make a mod that lets you add a gradient curtain thingy and wrap it up in a cab, I'm sure people will be willing to donate a few £s... I definitely would be.
transparent background on messaging tab makes sms, etc. unreadable
I have been working on this one for weeks now, I've been able to change a whole lot in manila except for this freakin' unreadable white text in the messaging tab, when you've got the transparent backgrounds enabled. Indeed it would be very nice to have like a curtain thing on this tab to properly show your messages
Issue is driving me
If there's someone that is able to do this or even help me along the way,
it would keep me from a mental breakdown (sleepless nights are killin'ya)

tryed 1001 things fr the message tab, discused it with other developers on the forum but noresult. it is just impossible.
In WP7 Mango, is it possible to change the text size and icon size of notifications on the lock screen? Email, voicemail, texts, etc. show up as very small icons and small numbers below the date and time, too small for an old man like me.
I have a LG Quantum but I have seen other WP7 phones with small notifications so I am asking in general if anyone knows how to change it.
Even a response saying it can't be done [yet] would at least let me stop spending so much time searching for an answer for now...thx
Im pretty sure it cant be done

Hi old man,
I do not thonk it is impossible.
You need to search for "notification", "text" etc.. in the registry.

That was also my first thought. I can't find anything in the registry related to the font or text for notifications. Lots of keys about notification sounds, but that's it. I will continue searching because surely someone has done it. I took a sideroad and checked google images for mango lockscreens and - sadly - they all looked the same. I had hoped that someone had posted how they had modified their lockscreen, but no.
It is weird to me how MS uses these huge fonts that roll across the screen (e.g. people) but then makes notification text and icons in like a 2 pt font.
Hello
Since sensation has high resolutions screen contact number fonts in contact list is very small. It is very difficult to read after 40 years of age
This is one of the basic function of this device. It is very difficult to see without to magnifier. Pinch to zoom works elsewhere but not here.
Could you tell me a way to see text in contacs program without carrying magnifier in my pocket
Thanks
Have you tried installing a different font?
Maybe you need to change you glassess. My common sense saying you are wearing glasses
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App
It looks like htc has forgatten to announce that People over 40 needs to buy glasses together with sensation even if they dont need normally
System font shange affects many things. It changes design completely I think
That is why I am looking for another solution
HTC keeps forgetting that not everyone has perfect eyesight, I have trouble reading many HTC applications and widgets. Most annoying to me was/is* the Calendar app: Appointment details usually span less than 35% of the screen, and you can't zoom in. Contacts are also an issue, but I usually tap phone and start typing the name on the numeric keypad, I keep typing until one name is left, which I then tap to call / send message / ..
I am happy with the SMS Application and Mail application though - pinch-to-zoom works on both now (Previously it would only work on Mail I believe).
*: I use Simple Calendar Widget by Alex Gavrishev, which is fully customizable.
you forgot incoming calls as well ...
font is just wayyyyyy too small !!! HTC expects all of my contacts to have PICTURES

Yes, You absoultely right
For example, When driving, or doing something else It is impossible to see phone numbers during incoming calls
This is a phone and We should see contact names and phone number easily and clearly. This is highest priority I think

Has anyone tried editing the build.prop to change the lcd density to a higher number, I have decreased it to make everything look smaller, it only rewins the lockscreen when I do that, I haven't tired making everything bigger by increasing the number.. anyone want to be a guinea pig?
