hi major sacarsm

i want this 2 fonts..please..thank you
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Major_Sarcasm:
Wow! OK, gimme a couple of days please, working long shifts but I'll get on it. Bear in mind that these fonts might cause issues with text box entry in Opera as some of the others have done.

Menu error

I noticed that after I flash to the Rom version 21889 I get black squares (see attachment) on all the menu bar :( which was not the case on rom version 21885 Is there a fix for this :confused:
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] gwbard:
+1, I've seen that as well with 23518. Interesting though -- only on the WM menus, the manila menus were ok.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] teckels:
How do you change the levels of boldness?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] bennyj71:
Wondering...

Can your cabs be used on a Touch Pro2? These things really jazz up your phone, but I wanted now if the size difference( I know it's small) would prevent from displaying correctly?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] seco10:
small problem

Great work - the font-cabs are running on WM 6.1 with Manila 2.1 and all fonts are looking great! Big thanks, Major_Sarcasm!! :)

I use eras system font and there's a small "problem": the Eras-Cab changes properly the default fonts all over the system but the two places "Alarm Off" and "Date" on home-tab show the old tahoma. What could be the reason?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Major_Sarcasm:
I have used a 21889 ROM and not had this issue.

3 different versions of a font.

As long as the phone is on a 6.5 ROM, it should work ok.

Let me take a wild guess. Check the thread title and then check the version of Windows that you are running. These CABs are for 6.5. There is a reason for this and it's written in the very first post of this thread.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] seco10:
Thanks for your fast reply. And yes I know I'm not in the right thread *lol* and so it's not only a wild guess - unfortunately it's the truth. WM6.1 takes another way to work with the TTF-files as WM6.5. And after a little research I think the reason is the tahoma.ttf - it seems there's no way to change it and WM 6.1 cannot "understand".

After all I can live with this little flaw - it does not reduce your awesome work. Thanks again!

edit: now I found the solution: I had to change the font-name from "HelveticaNeue 35 LT.ttf" (that's used from WM 6.1) to "HelveticaOTS.ttf" (the one in your WM 6.5 - cabs) in the 1c684cd8_manila (both lines "alarm-time" and "date") - and everything looks like it used to.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Major_Sarcasm:
You could just try using a font CAB that's been written for your operating system ;)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] dequinha:
major u could make a cab?

thanks
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] r04d5t3r:
I had this issue... And my workaround is to change this registry entry:

HKLM\software\HTC\HTCMenus

FontFace = Helvetica Neue OTS

to

FontFace = Tahoma

No need to soft reset, you'll see the difference... :D
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] gwbard:
didn't work for me... (even with a reset) :(
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] jkal25:
Not me either. I'm running NRG 6.5.5 ROM from 7Feb10. It's been like this for the past few weeks of NRG ROM's...
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] r04d5t3r:
Wait guys, i'll check if there are some other registry entry I changed... I'm using 18Jan10 EnergyROM Phoenix 2 and I got rid the squares...

EDIT: added screenshot from my device running 18Jan10 EnergyROM Phoenix 2. I actually forgot how to get rid the square :confused: I'll try it in next EnergyROM (8feb10) and post here the steps. I'm downloading it now. :)

FYI, the squares showed up because in some way HTC menus font is set to Ahem font (I can see it in windows directory as 000-AHEM____.TTF). If you open it in PC, it will show the squares. As googling 'ahem font' gives this result:
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] emik:
i need for a special program the arial font, i put it in any folder, put the program can´t find it, any idea? thx
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] davidper:
Fixed black squares

I installed the font Lucida Handwriting, copied the file 'HelveticaNeueOTS.ttf' (from the windows folder) to my pc, renamed it to '000-AHEM____.ttf', and replaced it in the windows folder (had to use total commander to replace it because I would get a not permitted error or something along those words every time I tried to overwrite it using my pc) which fixed the problem, but the font in max manila did not change :confused: so I did the same thing with the 'Helvetica LT 55 Roman' .ttf file and have not seen any errors :cool:. Note that when I first replaced the 000-AHEM____.ttf file I forgot to install the font first which I'm thinking was why the max manila font did not change, for when I had previously installed the font it did change the font. Anyways I have posted the files I changed and some pics if interested.

Thank you r04d5t3r for figuring out what was causing the problem and a big THANK YOU to Major_Sarcasm for all of your work.

Hope this helps :D
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] r04d5t3r:
Glad you could make it davidper... :D

Anyway, I just flashed a new ROM (energyrom phoenix2 8feb10 raphael), and did the steps I wrote... and it works... weird isn't it? :confused:

(before install any sarcy's fonts)

1. test the htc menus - ok (helvetica)

2. install sarcy's nokia font cab, press ok, soft reset

3. test the htc menus - got black squares

4. go to HKLM\software\htcmenus, rename FontFace to FontFace.bak

5. test htc menus - ok (helvetica)

6. create new string value FontFace, set it to Tahoma

7. test htc menus - ok (nokia font)

voila! :D
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] dwj:
I had this problem of blocking squares in htc menus on latest energyROM build 23259. Instead of altering reg, I changed to windows menus instead of htc and Major_Sarcasm's excellent fonts work perfectly if that helps anyone.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] tsalta:
I have a Problem i install some of the FONT`s 1st i wana say that the FONT are hiden i mean they not apear in the installed app so i use also SK Tools because is better software for uninstall but they missing Anyway.. i found how to uninstall them with diferent program after this i do a soft reset but the Fonts are still the same the Windows Fond come back to the default but the Fonts in Manila are this one that i install so in every tab like for example Music,Weather Calendar the Font that is writen the TAB for example MUSIC is from this font that i install all other is like the default system fonts..

Also in home screen the Operator Logo and the Missed Calls and Calendar and the weather on home tab is with this costum Font that i install.

Also i download the default windows fonts that you upload and install them directly on main memory again the same problem nothing have changet so now the system fonts are default all other are costum i know how will fix this but i don`t want to do a HARD RESET right now because i like how is costumized my device can you give me another solutution?

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] ugumba:
I get this issue on ROMeOS4 (which comes with Segoe Condensed as default), but only when Opera Mobile 10 beta 3 is running in the background. Soon after I quit Opera, the HTC menus start working fine again. I've tried the registry hack, but it doesn't make a difference. Really weird.

NRG 16Feb10 ROM

I just installed the 23529 16Feb10 MaxManila ROM from NRG, and the Droid font installed, good in HTC menus, without anything other than installing the CAB.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] HD_Lutze:
I would do it myself but ...:confused:
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] tsalta:
This is not for All Devices and you need to mention in the 1st post that some peoples need to do a HARD RESET if they want to remove the Fonts.

In My Case 1st the Fonts are not visable in the installed programs so you can`t uninstall them, i try with SK Tool witch is one from the best cleaner and again nothing then.. in my case i try to trick the system and install the same font and when the system ask me do i want to remove the previous i click yes but after few seconds the system say that cannot remove the FONT so you can install other Font but you cannot remove any font, also i install the default system fonts BUT this not help too, im just writing this peoples to know they can have serious troubles with the FONT and need a Hard Reset sometimes.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] de Wolfe:
Hi! First of all THX for your awesome work!!

Got one question: on my HD2 all Fonts change properly but not the Sense 2.5-Fonts. These change as well but to some other old-fashioned font. Can you tell me how to change also the font of Sense 2.5 properly? Big THX!

EDIT: Now, after I hardreset my HD the fonts work all also within Manila! That's good. Why does the Segoe-Font is that damn bold within Manila? Is that normal?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] 4D3:
Hi,

I have just tryed some of your cabs on the HD2 and they look nice, they are just SO small it is impossible to see them!

can you increase the dpi of the fonts please? i think for the HD2 it is 192.

XDA dev HAS shrank the screenshot, but you can see the text is too small to read!

thanks

i was trying to get root access on my G1 but when i reformatted to Fat32 (i know everything goes to factory reset) but i didnt know if you have no service you cant get through the google sign in part upon startup.

so when i go to the "sign in" one, i put in my information and i will get a message saing "Thereis a problem communicating with the google servers this could be a temporary problem or your SIM card may not be provisioned for data services"

hoever i was able to unlock it using my friends workiing SIM card from their Gravity, but it worked once, i did another wipe of my phone, the second time both mine and his say the same thing.. what should i do?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trevordbs:
1) you could not double post.

2) go find some service.

3) With JF 1.5ADP, not the t-mobile build the google build, you can skip the sign in part. Go to settings and turn your WIFI on. Enter your password and what not. Once connected to the WIFI click the gmail icon, enter in your username and password. connected.

or

1) open your eyes.

2) notice the ***Informative Threads*** - Read before clicking "New Thread" [06/30]

While I can appreciate this topic, I think you need to speak with less certainty that this will always work properly the first time.

For example - I'm coming from the Ramjet ROM, and the process that I have taken.

Freshly formatted 4gb sd card with a 700mb EXT3 partition, the rest is fat32.

Loaded JACHero 2.3 and renamed update.zip

Wiped twice

Installed ROM

Phone went into boot loop - allowed to run for 10 minutes

Removed battery

Attempted to install ROM a second time

Boot loop again - allowed to run 10 minutes

Wiped again

Installed ROM

Boot loop again - allowed to run 10 minutes

It seems strange, as going from a standard JAC build previously I was able to just wipe, wipe, install and had JACHero 2.1 working without a hitch. I found this strange, as people were complaining about that build, but it seems 2.3 is what's giving me the most headache.

/shrug. Guess I'll go back to Ramjet.
[G1 Android Development] ohmarni:
Great post, dude. I've rooted my phone, flashed a few ROMs, including Haykuro's Hero, moved Rosie back to run on the phone instead of the SD card, overclocked and run Swapper. I was still a bit confused and hesitant to flash the JAChero ROM. I'm feeling better about it now. Gonna flash when I get home from work today.
[G1 Android Development] sxfx:
I can completely see what you mean by that. But only reason I decided to make this, because two other phones that were having the exact same problems, started working after I did this.

They both had the same symptoms everyone else, and no one really knows where it came from.

So I made sure they had the right radio, then the right SPL, and every time I did something to the SD Card I killed the partitions completely not just format them.

But I destroyed the partition, recreated it and then formatted it to a file system of my choosing.
[G1 Android Development] miko85:
my g1 is fine ive flashed every rom here and never gotten stuck on boot loop, if anything the files youre downloading for recovery and spl must be corrupted try re downloading your radio file and spl's again.
[G1 Android Development] komposure85:
Include Disclaimer

I like your post but here is something that I would add to your post.

Even though this has worked every time for you do not assume that it will work for every one, therefore make sure you put a disclaimer out there. As you may have seen before, there have been a lot of posters that have blamed others when their phones were either bricked or stuck in boot loops.

Remember....some people may do something wrong during a step and swear that they followed it perfectly and then blame you.

A detailed disclaimer could be of some help since a lot of people will be taking your post as LAW......:)
[G1 Android Development] skizzigh:
for somereason im not able to update my spl is it something u must do i keep gettin a veification faild message when im tryin to flash it wiht alt + s and i cant seem to update to jachero 2.3 im using a 1 g micro sd im really not sure whats going on i have the proper raido settings and everything. also im not really sure how to create 2 partitions on my memory card im running good ol windows vista
[G1 Android Development] The Spirit:
how fast is this running.

i tried it once without swapper and it was way to slow in my eyes in order to use at as an everyday phone.

hope you have something for me (is swapper this perfect solution?)
[G1 Android Development] sxfx:
In my opinion the perfect solution is making a a linux swap partition on your sd card.

However last time I created a linux swap partition and created my swap file there after I rebooted my phone I got stuck at the G1 screen.

I think this might have been cause because of having three partitions on the card but I am not 100% sure.

So instead I just use swapper and make it mount the swap file on my ext3 partition which seems to make this rom run really freaking smooth.

Also I have noticed significant improvements of using ext3 vs ext2, but when research how the two different file systems work it makes sense why it would make a difference.

So to answer your question, is swapper the perfect solution? Im not sure if there is anyone perfect solution but I do know that this sure ass hell makes a huge difference in how your Hero rom runs.
[G1 Android Development] dbhatesyou:
for those having boot loops, how about help us help you, run ddms from sdktools and grab a log of whats going on, this way we can determine an issue, because those asking for help with bootloops and asking for help is like asking me to tell you whats wrong with your car over the phone. we cant tell if we cant see whats going on. so helps us, if you have adb and not the sdktools just type

adb logcat

this way we can see what your phones trying to do.

Excellent post! I wish I this was available yesterday when I did my first Hero ROM ever. The JAC thread is huugggeeee.

Not to hijack your post, but I'll add my two cents and experiences from yesterday if you do not mind.

-------------

Ok first time on Hero. Coming from DudesCupcake.

Pre

Formatted 1gb SD card 500mb Fat32, and the rest Ext3

hxxp://allshadow.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=5870

1. Flashed Radio 2.22.19.26I from (update.zip) successful (camera+power to check)

hxxp://code.google.com/p/sapphire-port-dream/

2. Flashed SPL 1.33.2005 from (renamed update.zip) successful (new three android skateboard logo on bottom)

hxxp://code.google.com/p/sapphire-port-dream/

3. Updated to JACHero r2.2.1 from Page 1

Now I have a boot loop, Hero -> HTC...

After installed 2.2.1 should I pop my SD card out and format it again on my computer?

Trying to do the 2.2.1 again.... Wish me luck!

**Update**

Updating to the 2.2.1 again worked.

Ok, everything works!! Much thanks to Luckenbach for the moral support, and thanks to JAC and all the other guides that I linked in my process. So if anyone else is a noob like me you can do exactly what I did (I provided links for each step where I got it from) you should be ok.

Edit: Also changing location of swapper from your info helped a lot! Thanks, I had the SD problem when I pulled out my SD card to put photos back on (instead of using adb) and I got stuck in a boot loop, I thought I was done for.

[G1 Android Development] jady:
A quick question that ill ask here as to not clutter up JADs thread any more than it alreadsy is.

I have put on 3 of his roms in the last few days and where as they are stable they are dead slow at times for me. I am using a 2g class 2 sd card with an ext3 partition. How much more would a class 6 card speed swapper up? Is one worth getting?
[G1 Android Development] TooSlo:
Sorry to post up in this thread again, but I just wanted to provide some more of my experiences here.

I'd picked up Paragon Partition Manager and used that to format my SD card and create the ext3 partition on it as well. It seems something is wonky with how it created it, as every time I've created the partition, even with different sizes, I always get stuck in a boot loop when trying to install JACHero even though any other ROMs will install just fine.

I've put the update.zip onto my older 1gb card that came with my phone just to see if it would install, and though it took a while, it installed without any issues.

After going through the setup process, I attempted to put in my 4gb card with ext3 on it. Lo and behold, boot loop.

Seems something is funky with the way that Paragon Partition Manager creates an ext3 partition.

I'm now going to install an older ROM and go through the "creating an ext2 partition through the G1" method and then attempt to convert it to an ext3 through Cyan's instructions.

I'll try to keep up to date what's going on. I know this place isn't a blog, I'm just hoping someone will point out my idiocy if I'm making any huge mistakes somewhere.
[G1 Android Development] doubleokneegro:
did you try going into recovery and then choosing fix file extensions... that happend to me, it might be because you have no ext 2
[G1 Android Development] sxfx:
Actually no. what happened is when you flashed with the one gig, aps2sd is ran automatically, so when you took the sd card out that you used while flashing it had all your system info on it. Once you swapped the cards the new one didnt have any system info on it.

So what you do is flash it with the 4gig card already with a fat32 and ext3 on it.

Also for those of you having boot loop problems too. I found out that the ext3 partition has to be completely formated not just wiped before you flash.
