Hello again guys, another weird issue with my new Huawei P30. So I had changed my font to the Huawei font that comes with the phone. Its a nice font. Was using it for a while without issues. I went to the Themes app and downloaded new fonts to try out. I didn't like them much so I tried going back to the one I was using before. But then I noticed that the font has become much thinner. Its like its using the Thin or Light weight of the font. The first time this happened I was so annoyed that I reset the phone (was new and didn't have loads of data on it). But I completely forgot about that encounter and I did it again now and the font is very thin. Take a look at the screenshots of before and after below (ignore the conversation, )

As you can see the font is much thinner. The weird thing is, after this, all the fonts become much thinner. The only way to get normal weight font is to use the system default font. Does anybody have a explanation/solution to this?
Thanks,
Is it thin everywhere system wide or just in that messaging app?
It is thin system wide. Keyboard, settings, status bar... Everywhere!

I'm guessing you have rebooted the phone and applied the font again, I know theme developers recommend that to ensure it applies correctly
1. Apply Theme
2. Reboot
3. ReApply Theme
Or in your case, font

I was wondering how to disable displaying the program name on the taskbar - is there a registry tweak for this?
It's just a cosmetic thing, i would rather see the taskbar clean with just the icons and time instead of having the current running program's name on it.
Any solution?
The closest I've come is by using something like Tweaks2k2 to change the Start-bar font color. So using something like Vicott's great UI Tweaker app, I change my top/bottom bars to all black, then change the font-color to black too.
That will "hide" the program title but, as a side effect it also changes the Time font color. Your signal bars, data connection, battery are untouched though.
It's simple, elegant and my choice for doing things, but like I said you loose the clock. Also, matching the exact colors to the top/bottom bars can be tedious if you don't know their exact color codes, if you do you're all set.

It looks really nice, the way you have done your layout - I like it a lot. I tried changing the colour of the text, but the thing is, I don't wanna loose the WM6 bars - and I am not able to find the matching colour while keeping the "glass" look. But thanks for the advice
If you don't want to lose the clock, you can use analogic clock instead of digital clock (long click over clock to change it)

Custom Clear Lockscreen -- Tutorial Soon
FIRST ATTEMPT
I've made my first custom lockscreen... I hope to put up a tutorial to
help others achieve the same "look." The best thing about this custom
lock screen vs. others I have seen is that it still allows for music apps,
notifications, etc to be used easily.
I also attempted to add the live wallpapers fix (w/o opengl) to this zip,
but unfortunately failed... If anyone wants to take a look and let me know
what I've done wrong that would be great!
I choose Purdue as it is my favorite college team/future university.

Nice! I applied it, also seemed to update my taskbar and rosie bar? You may want to note that.
I reapplied my Themed zip, so I got my taskbar and rosie back the way it ws before.
I will rock this lockscreen for a while, thanks!

Thanks! I'll take a look at it, and make sure to remove that
I've taken it upon myself to AOSP-ize a Sense ROM in the most complete way possible. I've done pretty well so far but I seem to have hit a snag. I swiped the stock MMS app from CM6 and pasted it into myn no problem, but I can't for the life of me figure out why it's framing the black background in white:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
It looks fine with the white background, but as soon as I switch to the dark the frame remains. I cycled through all the images for both my framework and the MMS app itself but I can't find anything... Thoughts? Am I missing something?
I'm not a Dev. But maybe it needs resized. Because it doesn't look like it's filling the screen

It looks like the background is set to white, with black and gray list items on top. The color setting is most likely in styles.xml or in one of the layout files.
I thought about that too knoc, but I don't think its the case because the text field stretches, and that's part of the app. I may be wrong though.
jj, I haven't played with xml files yet but ill give it a shot. Thanks.
Have you edited any .9.png files? if so you might want to check into those.

yep, looks like a draw9 patch bug to me too. something isn't stretching right.
So did you modify any xml's? Or are you just copying and paisting. The reason I ask is that by your description is sounds like the padding is all f'd up. I know there is a flashable zip that removes sense if you want that. You will have to check around on here to find it.
i have a nexus s on ics 4.0.4 and i want to change my font to this: http://www.dafont.com/easy-speech.font
is there any tutorials or w.e on changing the font? or has someone already got a similar font that i can flash?
thanks
edit:
actually the font i originally wanted was this one:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
if anyone knows what font that is, that would be great
There are a few fonts that look similar in the Font Installer app, though not exact. Personally, I think I might like Eager Naturalist better in that style. It may at least be a quick and easy stopgap if not close enough for you.
If you are rooted , you can download rom toolbox. It has a font installer and it has allot of really good fonts to choose from. Over 100+ fonts I believe. You can download it from the market.

use a root browser to drop any font you like into the font folder to use it. system/fonts/(drop it here).
make sure permissions are fixed to rw-r--r--
that should work
font for nexus
this type of font you can get in, go to setting-> display and then font option also you can download front from google Play, even if your phone is not rooted,
if your phone is rooted then there are several ways to change the font and you can also get lots of font
please press thank if you found this helpful
It's totally annoying. Does anyone have it too? or know a remedy? There is always a white border under the font.

Not that I can see...
I have the same problem... I could probably live with it, but it's a bit irritating. Going to try a ROM and see if that fixes the problem, otherwise it's probably a display issue

Can't image this having to be done. If the location doesn't change and its always visible then it would be the display especially if it was still there on reboot or during the advanced menus on boot. The ROM shouldn't cause a line though. Each app gets drawn to the screen fully.
It is possible though to have an overlay app like the Samsung side bar causing it though. That one can be disabled in settings. Since those draw on top of everything and so could do the same thing but only while the OS is in use. This should be the only way for it to not be the display.

Yeah, the pixel ROM didn't change anything. It looks better in dark mode, just going to have to live with it.
