Hello all

Remember, there's alot of folk out there who lurk as they don't have much to offer in terms of development/relevent posts etc and I belive a vega area will be a useful resource for those chaps/chapesses as well.

So, busy or not (and I suspect it will be fairly popular) I for one, look forward to next week and our own little area.

Also, no offence to Modaco etc, but XDA is more of a "home" to me.

looking forward to it, I may even contribute...

I may get up to 10 posts.

[HTC Aria General] churapa:
Changing the default font of your Aria

After trying without success different methods to change the fonts in my Aria, I decided to write the results of my experiences (when I was finally able to achieve what I wanted) in order to help others that my be trying to do so.

As always, before even trying to do any mod to your precious Aria, DO A NANDROID BACKUP!

Disclaimer: Try this under your own risk, I can not be held responsible for anything that can happen to your phone.

1.- You need to have your Aria rooted because these fonts are stored inside the Dalvik file system and by having “root” access, you can access these files in read-write mode.

2.- On your PC , download any True Type Font (files with extension .ttf) of your choice , you need two variants of these fonts “Normal” and “Bold”. You can browse and download fonts for free from the web.

3.- I, personally like CaviarDreams (Normal type) and CaviarDreams-Bold (Bold type).

4.- In your PC's main unit (in most cases, it would be C:\), create a folder and name it androidfonts, then, save the fonts you just downloaded in that folder.

5.- Whichever fonts you choose, you will have to rename them as DroidSans and DroidSans-Bold respectively.

6.- Turn your phone off. Enter recovery mode by holding "volume down" and "power" buttons at the same time when you turn on your phone. Keep holding for about 10 seconds. You are now in recovery mode if it says "clockwork" at the top.

7.- On the phone's recovery menu, navigate to Partitions, once there, select “mount system”, that will allow you to access files in read-write mode and make the desired changes.

8.- Now, you can connect your phone to the computer through the USB cable.

9.- In your computer, using adb* tool, write the following commands:

C:\Android\tools

adb push c:\androidfonts\xxxxxxxx.ttf /system/fonts/DroidSans.ttf

The above command will copy the new font.

Repeat this command to overwrite DroidSans-Bold.

Remember: xxxxxxxx.ttf are the fonts you previously downloaded and renamed.

10.- In your computer, type exit to exit adb.

11.- Do not disconnect your phone yet.

12.- On your phone's partitions menu, unmount your system.

13.- In the phone's recovery menu, go back and select reboot system.

You can now unplug your usb cable to disconnect your phone from the PC.

*You enter adb by launching Command Prompt aka as cmd prompt on your computer (better if you launch it as Administrator by right clicking on it)

Once you've launched cmd prompt, write in the cmd prompt box the following commands:

C:\Android(or whatever name you gave to your sdk file)\tools

Enjoy your new font.
[HTC Aria General] hungmung:
If you search for fonts on the forums you can find a link to dozens of font packs that can be flashed from recovery the same way you flash a rom. You don't even need to clear any caches just flash the zip.
[HTC Aria General] churapa:
Thanks for your comment.

The reason I started this thread is because none of those fonts were of my liking, as I stated, I just wanted to share my experience in changing the font to one I really want and like.

Besides, by doing this, helps anyone practice their modding skills.

[HTC Aria General] 911jason:
Thanks for taking the time to write out this tutorial, I appreciate your efforts!

I'm sure I can find it and right after I post this, I will start looking, but you might want to provide a link or a description on where to find "adb tool". That's the only part of your instructions that I don't think are crystal clear.
[HTC Aria General] churapa:
Updated instructions on first post. Also, remember post #235 from The Homescreen Snapshots thread?, there I linked what adb is.
[HTC Aria General] zervic:
The thing about this is they are font PACKS...what if you don't want all those extra fonts? That's just wasted space IMO. Hence why churupa's way of doing this is better, though it may be a little more time consuming ;)
[HTC Aria General] hungmung:
I think you misunderstand there are dozens of separate packs you can download and each one is only for one font it just makes the process faster because you can just go into recovery and flash the zip
[HTC Aria General] 911jason:
So I found a font I like, but it's just slightly larger than the default font which causes some various issues with text not fitting like it should in Widgets. Is there a setting somewhere that we can access to adjust the font size a notch or two?
[HTC Aria General] 911jason:
You can see what I mean in these screen caps. Notice on the home screen how the line coming down from SimiClock no longer has an even gap to run through in the weather widget and between the battery and data widgets. The only other problem I ran into was in the various settings menus for widgets where there is a numeric setting box, the font in those boxes is so large you can only see the bottom half of the numbers.
[HTC Aria General] 911jason:
So I found a better match size-wise, it's not quite as cool of a font, but it still has some style. This one is Ubuntu and is available free here:

http://www.fontsquirrel.com/fonts/ubuntu

I used Ubuntu Regular for both Clockopia.ttf (LockScreen) and DroidSans.ttf

and I used Ubuntu Bold for DroidSans-Bold.ttf
[HTC Aria General] Javi97100:
What is that font?
[HTC Aria General] 911jason:
Ummm... good question! Can't believe I left that out... I'm at work now, but I'll try to remember to post the name of the font later today.
[HTC Aria General] 911jason:
It is Sansumi.
[HTC Aria General] Javi97100:
Um how did u install it cuz i tried flashing to through recovery and nothing happend? Any ideas
[HTC Aria General] 911jason:
That zip file is just the fonts by themselves. You need to go to the first post in the thread and follow those instructions if you want to install the font on your phone.
[HTC Aria General] tilt4life2:
What if you can't find the bold version of a font? Can I just rename a copy of the regular as bold?
[HTC Aria General] kevina90:
sure, it just that text that should be bolded won't be bold.
[HTC Aria General] tilt4life2:
I did everything here but I keep getting the following message:

cannot stat 'e:\androidfonts\DroidSans.tff': no such file or directory

E: is my main drive. I have SDK tools in F: drive. I even tried to move the androidfonts folder to Tools and then the font files to tools but I keep getting same message.

Edit: Problem was fixed thanks to DrSwattt's help.
[HTC Aria General] swifters:
Just found a font that is nearly perfectly equivalent to DroidSans in metrics: Leelawadee. It comes with Windows Vista/7. It's actually a Thai font but it has the complete latin character set. Using Leelawadee to replace DroidSans, you don't need to worry that the new font does not fit your theme. It's not fancy, but good enough for daily use.
[HTC Aria General] kevina90:
my favorite is neutraface, looks amazing!

I've ported (got to run) this ROM on HTC Tattoo, and I can tell you this much:

Camera is NOT working

Wi-Fi is NOT working

Baseband Radio (mobile network) is NOT working

SD Card is NOT working

USB is NOT working

This is with unchanged files. Some of it like Radio, SD and Wi-fi are fixable but Camera remains an issue. Now maybe it's worth looking at the source of this ROM/kernel/drivers but porting the actual ROM will not give you a working camera.

Battery not lasting as long as it used to?–SOLUTION

I’ve had my phone for a few months and I’ve always got at least 48hours of use and as much as 200hours while on vacation before needing to recharge. The last few weeks I’ve been getting less than half that. I’ve read that using a non standard charger that has a higher output overheats the battery causing degradation, and had feared that now I’d have to replace the battery which was quite disappointing since I’ve only had the phone a short while.

I’ve had many previous phones that have had their batteries last years without noticeable loss of capacity.

So I decided to run down the battery and do a “refresh” and kill the battery completely till the phone wouldn’t turn on. Then I charged it using the same non-standard charger which is an old blackberry one since I’ve misplaced my OEM one. I left the phone off and charged it up which took less than two hours before the green LED came one and read fully charged. I then turned on the phone and found that in fact it was only 66% charged, so I proceeded to charge it fully.

Well it worked! Previously I was losing as much as 20% overnight. After a few days its back working like new and only losing 2% on average whiling idling over night.

I’m not sure why the mini is so susceptible to battery memory, especially since one of the highlights of lithium batteries is their ability to be charged at anytime without memory effect.

I don’t think this is just memory issue, but possibly a software and hardware calibration issue. Where the phone feels the battery is fully charged while the battery hasn't reached full capacity.

Hi,

I've been using a Tilt 1 (8925) for roughly two years now, and I just purchased a practically brand new Tilt 2 recently. So far, I'm in the transition process, playing around with it and such. There are a few things I'm having problems with. One of them is the music from my memory card (16GB).

On my 8925, my playlists (.ASX) work perfectly in WMP and S2P. However, when inserting the same SD card ino the Tilt 2, an error always occurs when I try to play a playlist in both WMP and S2P. It always has a message regarding Audio Manager. I also noticed my .MP3 files work when I choose them under songs / artists / genre, but never under a playlist. Can anyone help with my issue?
