[HTC Droid DNA] chipymunk:
Is there anyway to change the font on this beautiful phone? :confused:
[HTC Droid DNA] BotsOne:
Assuming you have a system write kernel installed, There are lots of ways to do this. You can find an app that will do this for you, ViperRom has a font changer built-in, or if you want to do the old-school method, just goto /system/fonts and backup DroidSans.ttf and DroidSansBold.ttf. Those are the main fonts that android uses. Find a new font (with its bold counterpart), rename them to DroidSans.ttf and DroidSansBold.ttf, and put them in the /system/fonts folder. Reboot.

EDIT: As v-b-n points out, android doesn't use droidsans as the main font anymore. Use these instead:

Main one is -

Roboto-Regular.ttf

Roboto-Bold.ttf

Roboto-Italic.ttf

Roboto-BoldItalic.ttf
[HTC Droid DNA] chipymunk:
Might try the old school method but is font changer compatible with the dna?
[HTC Droid DNA] chipymunk:
Nvm, got it done with font changer lite lol thanks for the reply @BotsOne
[HTC Droid DNA] v-b-n:
Just to clarify so others reading this dont make a mistake, DroidSans is NOT the main font anymore ... its a symbolic link to Roboto fonts.

Main one is -

Roboto-Regular.ttf

Roboto-Bold.ttf

Roboto-Italic.ttf

Roboto-BoldItalic.ttf

Change just those and the whole UI should reflect ...

If u don't wanna unlock bootloader then use bin4ry method but u can only root upto 6.1.a.2.50. The new firmware 6.1.a.2.55 can't be rooted using bin4ry.

If u have locked bootloader then u can root any firmware available now.
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cheetah2k:
Is there any way to fix the Razr HD camera? In its current form its seriously flawed.

For example, I record some 1080 video in front of my very bright projector screen in a pitch black room (game replays from F1 2012) and the video recording is extremely dark, greenish, and grainy. Compared to video I've taken with my SGSIII and Nexus 4 which capture video flawlessly and exactly as I see it on the big screen, the Razr is really really bad...

I've tried a few different apps, yesterday on recommendation I downloaded the Camera JB+ app but it also just seemed to make it worse (even darker and more green)..

Has anyone found a fix for the Razr HD camera? Is there a way to hack it?? I've even found that outdoor still shots vary too, some overexposed, some underexposed, even when taking several of the same shot in exactly the same light, one photo after the other....

Surely Moto can make it better, I use the video recording all the time on this phone, and its a total fail right now, so much so I'm going to sell it :(

[Samsung Captivate Glide] QuentinX5:
So, I have been having this really weird and odd issue for whenever I install my applications onto my phone.

After reinstalling them via Titanium Backup, I would have anywhere from 500-200 MB left, depending on how many applications I wanted to reinstall. After installing them, however, within the course of a couple of hours, my phone goes on whacko mode and somehow kills off all of that remaining storage space, depleting me from using my texts or anything else because something is somehow hogging up all that space. I am starting to smell a possible virus though, and I think I will take a check at Lookout just to make sure, but I was wondering if this had happened to anyone else?

This has been happening on CM 10.1 and PACman so it can't be a ROM specific thing. Any and all help is appreciated, especially help as to where I can look to murder this storage space sucking demon from another universe...

*UPDATE*

I did some more digging around and found a application on my phone called MediaStorage, and it apparently had like 800 MB of data on it... How does that even happen? Digging deeper to see what app in particular might be causing it.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dudejb:
I believe that is the built in app/service that detects your media and what updates your gallery for example. It populates gallery and music players to add content. People have had issues where that runs non stop and does not quit. I recall this was a bug in Gingerbread, I have not seen it on ICS but it may still be there. Never tried JB yet as I need some features that it does not have yet on my daily driver.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] QuentinX5:
I've also noticed that with my phone, that it's the biggest battery killer on my phone. -.-

It's back with a 450 MB storage space. Can I just kill the thing for good?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dudejb:
There is an app on the appstore that allows you to disable the service but you need to be rooted: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...SwxLDEsImNvbS5hZGR6Lm1lZGlhc2Nhbm5lcnJvb3QiXQ..

Please note your gallery will no longer show anything in it and will be blank same for your audio player if it does not let you point to music and does it via media scanner.

Good luck.

Hello! I am a repair tech and I have a Samsung i500A here and I am trying to find out if the ESN is good or not. To my understanding, this model was only made for Verizon and U.S. Cellular, correct? I have called both carriers multiple times and they are both telling me that this ESN is not in their system. Are there any other CDMA carriers that carry this phone? It is not carrier-branded on the outside and the screen is broken or I'd turn it on to find out.

make sure you are giving them the right format

if you need use the converter HERE

And One more converter HERE

it is then usually the ""MEID HEX:"" that you want to give them

some of the carriers want the ""ESN (DEC)""

and so-forth and so-on...

also verizons online checker is HERE

... no need to call anyone

Also another really good one id at swappa HERE

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deathtrip:
Swappa's ESN check only checks to see if you're imputing a valid ESN, or MEID, it doesn't validate if it's clean or not.

Also, Verizon's "Check Device" page does not validate if an ESN is active, lost/stolen, or clean. It just validates if the device is compatible with Verizon's network.

www.CheckESNFree.com will validate against Verizon, Sprint, MetroPCS, Tracfone, StraightTalk, and soon the IMEI Blacklist.

Ok, odd problem and I am not sure if this is the best place to ask.

Handcent started playing the "Droid" ringtone as its default the other day. I didnt change it. I set it back to custom and it is fine. So I can gather

BUT - now all custom contacts that I had individual ringtones for, or even ones I didnt have custom tones for ring as "Droid" and not the Handcent default.

System default is also set to this custom tone. I havent tried deleting and seeing what happens yet with new incoming

But I really needed custom tones because I get 911 texts for emergency dispatch and have special tones for it.

This just started happening after recent update I think.

Any suggestions

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bultaco69:
Just trying to work my way through GMPOWER's tutorial on rooting the Nook Color.

I have some REALLY basic questions that are probably covered in the instructions, but if it's NEW, which it is for anyone reading here...it's confusing:

For example,

1. What is meant by the bold, red warning........"You must do a complete wipe before installing this package." Does "wipe" mean FORMAT? If yes......format what? The NOOK? The SD card? Both?

2. In the video included in the tutorial, there's reference to an unZIPing program being required to 'uncork' the downloaded files. The narrator says to right click and unzip the files. (When I right click on my zipped files, the only command I see that MIGHT an unzip function is "Extract all". Is that an unzip program?)

3. The most 'complicated' process of all, (to me, anyway) the selecting of the files and unzipping them and "flashing" them (is that just another word for copying or installing?) is passed over so quickly and with the camera so far away from the screen in the video....it's very difficult to see and understand exactly what is happening. For example, at exactly 4:06 into the video, the narrator says to right click on the CWM file.....at which point, it looks like he actually LEFT clicks it and it opens to show TWO files.....and he then RIGHT clicks on one of them, but doesn't say what it's name is or what it should do.

Sorry to sound like a whiney noob......but, remember, only noobs are watching this; otherwise we wouldn't be watching it! :)

Can someone please elaborate on the click here.....now do this......then do that.......then you will see this......and now you have to do these? I'm sure I speak for more people than just myself when I ask this.

Thanks very much for any help.

Michael
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] propjockey:
I'm running CM10 and have not seen the video you speak of... But I think I can help with some of what you're looking for.

1. Wipe and format are often used synonymously. For example wiping your system or data partition on your device is the same as formatting. If the video is talking about the SD card, the same philosophy applies. A formatted card is ideal before starting.

2. Again, unzip and extract are somewhat synonymous. What program they are likely referring to is 7zip. It's a powerful compression and decompression utility.

3. Flashing describes the process of installing a package(ROM, zip, etc...) from one media(SD in this case) and installing it to a normally read only media (the Nook's internal drive. Including the system and data partitions of the disk) This is usually done through a recovery program that starts up instead of the normal OS. In most cases it is Clockwork Mod recovery (CWM) or something very much like it.

Like I said, I haven't seem the video and never went the manual nooter route. I totally wiped stock nook and went the CyanogenMod route. So I can't comment on the video's vagueness in this case. Maybe another member has some insight on this.

Error while using Win32DiskImager

Hey, propjockey.....thanks for the 'patient' explanations.

I've made a little headway in terms of preparing to root my Nook Color.....but when I tried to use DiskImager....I got an error:....."An error occurred when attempting to lock the volume.

Anybody know what might have generated this? Or, what I should try next?

Still getting lock error

Thanks very much for the suggestion, leapinlar,.....but I'm still getting the Lock error even after making sure ALL windows of Explorer are closed (especially any for the SD drive).

Dumb question: I don't think either the text from GMPOWER or the video ever state WHERE the win32 diskimager and/or the clockwork-3.2.0.1 should be residing when these operations are taking place. I would ASSUME they're all supposed to be on the SD card....but I've been wrong before when assuming!! :)

Also, when I first tried this, I noticed I had downloaded (and possibly extracted) the win32diskimager-source.zip (SOURCE) version as opposed to the BINARY version. Should I start over? With a cleanly formatted SD? (my formatting took a long, long time when I initially did it.......not using the Quick method, as I think I saw advised somewhere.)

Thoughts? Thanks!

EDIT: Actually, I think I just answered PART of my question: when I tried it again (after formatting the SD and putting ALL three zipped files on the card) I got a new/different error:

"Image file cannot be located on the requested device." So, I guess that means that at least the "eyeballer" image file CANNOT be sitting on the SD card while you attempt to "write" it there. Yes? No?

Therefore....by the same token....is it safe/possible to run the Win32DiskImager from the SD card.....or should it ALSO be located somewhere else during this process??

ANOTHER EDIT: Tried removing the image file from the SD card, then running DiskImage and selecting the image file that I'd downloaded and unzipped to my hard drive. STILL got the "lock error". Getting frustrated. Most grateful for any suggestions/help. Please and Thanks
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
You definitely need the img file on your PC before you try to burn. Having it on SD and putting that location in the image box will definitely lock the card. Try again with nothing on the card and no other program running.

OK, leapinlar...you're my new GURU!!

That was apparently my problem

I formatted the card back to being a virgin.....put NOTHING on it. Went to Win32 on my hard drive, launched it, found the eyeballer image on my HARD DRIVE and selected it to flash onto my card in the G-drive.

And away it went!!! Lovely! Just friggin lovely!!

Now, since instructions everywhere often seem to be devoid of these fine "details".......could you be so kind as to give me EXPLICIT directions on what to do next? (I'd hate to turn my Nook Color into a paperweight at this stage!)

The sequence of events (i.e. when the nook gets turned on/turned off/hooked up/ etc seem to be different in different places........I notice even the video from Acsyndicate TV, they insert a little apology in the corner saying they forgot to turn it on; DOH!! Also, I see elsewhere that the Nook should be connected by USB at some point during this process....and yet the guy in the video doesn't have a cable showing anywhere any time. WTF??)

Thanks tons for your help leapinlar.......I'm almost at the point of not buggin you any more! :)

"Sorry, there's not enough space to install this item."

Installation/rooting successfully completed, but now unable to download any apps because of "Sorry there's not enough space......." error appearing for every attempted download.

Is there a secret.......let me rephrase that.......what IS the secret to deleting all the crap that must be in there taking up all the space?

I rooted a virtually STOCK Nook Color (1.4.3) using manualnooter-5.08.20.basic.block_updates.zip - and it appeared to be fine, but I'm assuming there's a routine that must be followed to either "turn on" the ability to download......or free up some space to download......new apps.....which, after all, is the only reason we root these things.......right?

Thanks for any/all info.

2. I have next to no previous apps or media (maybe 4 apps and 4 books and 3 magazines) downloaded to the NC......but, perhaps it doesn't take much to fill this puppy?

3. I don't even have an SD card in it at this point. I removed the one I used to do the rooting because it booted to it when I started up the Nook this AM........and I assumed that was a bad thing.....or, at least unnecessary.

Should I erase the "rooting SD card"........or "keep it in a safe place" and use a new one for downloading/storing apps and media?

Thanks,

Mike
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
1. It should have changed itself immediately. That may be indicative of the problem.

2. Are any of the books kids interactive books? They take a lot of space.

3. If you did not make a backup with the CWM card, and you don't plan to restore the backup in the future, then reformat the card to use as a normal SD. But I recommend you do the backup and keep the card as CWM. Then get a new one.
