[Part Solved] 23112 Fonts Issue

[Part Solved] 23112 Fonts Issue - Windows Mobile

Hi
Been playing with build 23112 with standard 2.53 packages on my Topaz (Touch Diamond 2) and apart from the standard workarounds with scrollbars, callerID etc which I sorted, I am stumped on one thing..
The fonts in some HTC applications, particularly EZinput and some of the phone canvas are displayed in a very heavy font. While this is somewhat cosmetic, it can make some symbols hard to work out.
I have tried replacing system fonts with several cabs available, playing with the Helvetica fonts and reg keys to no avail.
Has anyone got a solution?
Thanks
Craig

There's no solutions for it yet. I think it discussed in Fixes thread already.

You can try replacing gwes.exe and see if that helps. I havent tried it, just suggesting....

do you have htcfontlink installed?

Hi,
I haven't tried replacing gwes.exe tbh but in Googling its replacement came up with a fix for an issue with camera fonts so may try that thanks..
Yes, I cook in HTCfontlink, and even tried replacing it with HTCFontlink from the HD Mini ROM but didn't fix it..
Thanks
Craig

ok, I asked because it sounds to me as if the app is not loaded. maybe you can check the init launchxx and dependxx values to see if it is launched (i asume you also have the htc launcher apps, cant recall the names)

Yeah, I tried launching it manually from the file explorer but that didn't work. Yeah, my ROM is the stock Topaz ROM with the HTC messaging mod and a T9 tweak. All other packages are unchanged.
[edit] Checked, and it has the same init launch and depend values as the stock Topaz packages
[edit2] Just been through the HD Mini ROM dump and found a package that replaces the system fonts Its FontGastEnhancement.. May try that!
Thanks

I have the same issue on the Omnia i900, but for the camera app. Seems most recent non-COM2 and non-COM5 builds are affected.
Tried removing the registry entries but didn't work (ended up with no fonts )
Related registry entries:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GDI\FontFiles\TrueType]
"EXT0"=multi_sz:".ttf",".ttc"
"EXT1"=multi_sz:".ac3"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GDI\FontDrivers\Microsoft TrueType]
"File"="\\windows\\mgtt_o.dll"
"Order"=dword:10
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GDI\FontDrivers\Microsoft AC3]
"File"="\\windows\\decompdll.dll"
"Order"=dword:10
Changing GWES.exe does help though. Still trying to find an alternative solution.

Hi ock
Tired cooking in the FontGastEnhancement - Didn't work
GWES.exe from the HD Mini - Didn't work
Cooking the whole 23106 SYS XIP from HD Mini / modded EXT from Topaz
GWES.exe from 23557 - Does work!! Breaks fancy menus
Thanks

Please could you upload pictures or additional details where the bold fonts is solved or not with the GWES.EXE from 23557?
If you try to cook a pure 23557 the bold font problem existing.

Afraid I cant upload pictures, flashed bk to 21887 soon after.
Using GWES.exe from 23557 and 23563 (tried both) solved the bold fonts in HTC apps issue but introduced and issue where the "pivot" tabs in WM apps were not being rendered properly. These are the fancy arrows at the top of say a WM control panel screen. They appear transparent with the labels rendered on top of each other. The navigation still works though, you can swipe around and even touch the bar to navigate but it just gets more messed up..
I believe flashing a whole ROM of 23557 works fine as there are loads of examples and not many font complaints.
Craig

have you tried 23114 it doesn't have the over bolded text on IME

I haven't been able to get hold of the SYS XIP packages for 23114 yet.
Is that with HTC EZInput 2.1?
Just cooked a ROM with 23563 SYS XIP and all is fine currently
Craig

Problem still exists in 23114.. With and without HTCFontLink
Craig

So none of the above tips work to fix the font issue uh!

Nope, doesn't seem like there is a solution, its something deep down in Windows. I'm running my ROM on 23563 and all seems stable and good.

You can give 23118 a try, I had some bold font issues in Omnia's Camera but problem's fixed for me in this build.

I noticed someone has posted a supposed Touch Pro 2 Calculator .cab:
http://mylostblog.altervista.org/software/freeware/per-htc/htc-freeware-htc-calculator-esclusiva. It looks great other than it is a huge install and it only works on WVGA. Looking at the cab file, there appears to be an XML file which skins the app. I'm throwing down the gauntlet to see who can first adjust all the layout so it fits on a VGA screen.
Also, I notice some images are .bmp and some are .png, so for extra credit see if you can convert all of them to .png and maybe save some space. I'm gonna look into this myself, but I know someone else can beat me to completing this.
P.S. - Not sure if you'll have to resize the button graphics to fit, or if the w/h parameters in the layout xml will do that for you on load.

I've done it (before reading this thread). But I don't know how to create cabs.
I resized the buttons (both portrait and landscape) and updated the coordinates and dimensions in the file "CalculatorMain_NoImgPkg.xml" (installed in the \Windows folder).
And also, I don't like all these small bmp files in my windows folder, so I moved the whole bunch to "\storage card\program files\htccalc"
I attach the buttons in a zip file, and the converted xml (also zipped).
This is not much use for most of you, but could be a good base for a VGA version.
"Installation":
1. install the original mylostblog version
2. delete the calc_*.bmp files from your windows folder
3. create the folder "htccalc" under "program files" in your storage card
4. unzip "buttons.zip" into the "htccalc" folder
5. replace "CalculatorMain_NoImgPkg.xml" in "\Windows" with the attached "CalculatorMain_NoImgPkg.xml"
To get to the scientific version slide out the keyboard or use a screen rotation utility.

[OEM] Custom Touch Pro 2 Manila
Got the dependencies working on the Touch Pro 2 files from the dumpity-dump, here's the Manila:
http://www.4shared.com/file/88620823/b845055a/PACKAGE_CustomRhodium_Manila.html
Same launch as the others-- open SIP keyboard while launching. The sure fire way is on Today->Items, open SIP keyboard before checking TF3D. Let's see if others can modify it faster than xboxmod (I'm busy with my ROM this will take take to resize)
EDIT: this is an OEM, not a cab, if you don't know what to do with it, then...
EDIT 2: this has not been resized, it's in CFC form, this came from the Dutty dump coming from SatScan.

Welcome to the EzInput 2.0 Keyboard Suite project.
Ok, the time has come.
HTC has rushed to prepare a pre-release of its EzInput 2.0 technology just in time for the MWC in Barcelona, and we have it here ready for our tweaks, hacks and workarounds.
These are the new layouts - only Phone Keypad and Full Qwerty, this time.
The first two Beta cabs are ready for download, but beware, this is just for experienced users only.
As you'll see, the known issues are a bit annoying, especially if compared to what we're accustomed to with the 1.5 release.
But that said, the huge use of .xml configuration files will probably mean a quite easily customizable experience for all the known form factors.
Sadly, it seems that although the .xml configuration files might be ok, the keyboard in its current form presents too many bugs to be acceptable for a day-to-day use.
Feel free to make your tests and prepare your cabs and packages. A better release will arrive as soon as the first Rhodium and Topaz phones will be ready for prime time...
Downloads
WVGA
NoKbd - Phones without keyboard
FullKbd - Phones with full hardware keyboard
Known Issues
Availability of Keypad Layout.
The Keypad layout is available and working, but not selectable using the settings or the old Input Panel.
To select it, you have to use the new SipMenu, included in cab B1.1 and above.
Only the newer phones from HTC can use the SipMenu (Elfin, Diamond, Raphael, Opal, Jade, Blackstone, Iolite).
The layout can be forced - in Portrait mode - using the registry.
Languages Availability and Selection.
Not all languages are available on the pre-release rom.
The Beta1 cab includes English, German, French, Italian and Spanish.
There's no way to select them using the standard Input Panel.
To select it, you have to use the new SipMenu, included in cab B1.1 and above.
Only the newer phones from HTC can use the SipMenu (Elfin, Diamond, Raphael, Opal, Jade, Blackstone, Iolite).
The old Language Packs made for V1.5 are *NOT* compatible with V2.0.
It seems that the main language can be forced through a registry setting, but it has not yet been verified.
Landscape mode keys don't work as expected.
In Landscape mode, a few keys don't seem to work at all.
The .xml layout definition files seem to be ok, so this might be a bug in the code.
Changelog
25-Feb-09: Beta1.3
Solved the space issue.
Removed an extra Tegic setting (coming from V1.5 customizations) that was causing it.
23-Feb-09: Beta1.2

[APP]UPDATED VERSION HTC Album Version 3.0.1911.1826 from TP2 (MADE VGA)
In other news here is the HTC ALBUM Version 2.5.1820.4127 and 3.0.1911.1826. the only thing i see different is 2.5 version does have Album Social Networking and it works with FOOTPRINTS. 3.0 is truely from TP2 and doesn't support footprints. other than that it moves quicker than other albums. this is all i can see that is different. (THANKS TO CONFLIPPER FOR THE CORRECTIONS)
to use it with FOOTPRINTS with version 2.5 you must have it installed already. When you click on a picture that has gps lat and long cordinates in it select menu and scroll down. under save to contacts you will see 2 blanked out lines. the one under save contacts opens google maps while the one under that one opens up footprints.
Version 2.5.1820.4127 that works with footprints, you can download from here: http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?ynjlvtjawvc
Version 3.0.1911.1826 that doesn't work with footprints and is from TP2, you can download from here: http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?ktjiyjzzytn
see pictures below from version 2.5 that works with footprints
UPDATE 2/26/2009: version 3 has some pics still need to be resized in should be posted soon as i am working on it as we speak.

For now we've fix some tab size but not yet the slider bar!!
this Manila doesn't work like others because New landscape use slide bar to
it use more lua and we have some problem to decompile it.
We work hard to release this Manila soon as possible.
but we can't announce a release date because we don't know.
this project is not an easy task so i ask you to be patient
an please don't spam the thread to ask for a release date.
NOT YET RELEASED
last news:
autoloader fixed
all lua soon decompiled a giant leap for this project! THX To Sztupy
I'm a Blackstone owner I don't really need this!
i do this only because i love what we do together on xda.
This is what the word community mean.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fixed
Auto-loader is now fixed!!
Some tabs re-sized to VGA!!
All tabs functional and all features working!!
Major crash issues seem resolved!!
To Do......
Slider bar is still not showing - NEED LUA HELP IF YOU CAN!!
Some tabs still need resizing in both portrait and landscape.
Other than that it's almost done guys. As xboxmod said in his post up above, PLEASE do not beg and whine and complain. It will be released when it is released and currently there is no tentative release date.
We will keep you updated as we go so please be patient.
Thanks for your understanding,
Dan.
EDIT:: [2/25/09]Small update - Weather tab in landscape mode now appears to be almost fixed completely. Update text is in the works Arrows to switch cities are being left out because of the gap they create on the far right side.

Having all the links in one place is good idea but deleting the original threads is bad. Now it's not possible to share information, experiences and etc in an easy manner.

Yes, a better idea would be to use a main thread to post the download links, and separate threads for the ongoing discussions... trying to follow posts regarding each package would be overwhelming, in a single merged thread...

[APP] PLAzmA Manila Rhodium VGA Comm Manager Skin (BETA 1)

Having recently installed XBmod Manila Rhodium VGA Port (here) i was annoyed that my comm manager skin was still the stock O2 blue skin
I search for ages to try and find someone how had made a black one, the closest i came was this which isnt black and this which had render issues and had the white left buttons, so it might not be perfect but i made one.
If anyone has any suggestions or the original Manila Rhodium VGA background on its own please send it and your suggestions over and i will see what i can do.
Also ive design this so it will just replace your existing skin and not change the existing options on your comm manager page like add the 3g button if you dont already have it.
PS ignore the background looking so crap in the screen shot, this is largely because of soti pocket controllers preview mode being a lower colour base.
MIRROR Standard: http://rapidshare.com/files/213416974/PLAzmA_Rhodium_VGA_Comm_Manager.cab.html
UPDATE: (3G)
I have also created, a version which will enable a 3G option in comm manager, personally i dont use 3G so i didnt bother writing it in but im sure some people will want to have it
MIRROR 3G: http://rapidshare.com/files/213485222/PLAzmA_Rhodium_VGA_Comm_Manager_3G.cab.html

Issue: after installing this onto my device the background of the Comm Manager is still white, along with white font color and dark icons as in your screenshot.
plazma247 said:
Have you done a soft reset ??
Also what phone and rom are you running it on?
As far as i can see from looking at other skin cabs the background files are always called P_BG.png and L_BG.png and are not set by a reg key and called by comm manger program directly.
Please post problems / answers to the comm manager thread instead of xbmod's thread as its a bit off topic thanks.

"CommManagerUIStyle" was set to 4 instead of 2 as in your provided fix.reg. I'm waiting for my device to startup as I type.
Btw, can you recommend a good register editor for VGA devices? Used PHM, but wasn't able to import your reg file.
EDIT: yepp, by changing that value from 4 to 2 I'm able to view the black background. Thank you =)!

Sure if you can find me any other comm manager cab thats wvga i will strip it apart and rebuild it to support the Rhodium skin, i looked and havnt found one yet.
Alternativly if you can extract me the following files from your windows folder:
Function_Bluetooth.png
L_BG.png
P_BG.png
and give me a registry export of :
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\CommManager
and all sub keys zip/rar them and send them over, i can then rebuild back into a cab, i need the registry key as ive not got a blackstone and need to double check the reg values

Cab didnt work
Hi ,
Tried to install the cab but fails immediatly with when i just pressed the cab file.
My phone : Raphael unbranded Netherlands
ROM: ROMeOS 1.90.1
Radio 1.12.25.19
Only thing that I could imagine is my other commanager from nadavi that adds the 3 g is corrupted with this version.

I would make sure your comm manager isnt running in memory when you install, ive actually made the pack so it has a 3g and ir option if you have already modded to get 3g or ir to appear on the comm manager.
However if you want to uninstall nadavi version, ive made a 3g version especially for you see the main thread for download.

I'm sorry, but I can't seem to actually use my Comm-Manager since I installed yours. The style is awesome for sure, but it's not very usable at the moment:
Clicking on an item highlights the current item, but does nothing; no toggling of Bluetooth or WiFi...
Clicking on the ON/OFF button for a function doesn't function either... same as above
In Rhodium Manila when I press the title for WiFi or Bluetooth the device vibrates and I'm taken to scanning mode (scan for AP's or BT devices)... this functionality is also gone.
EDIT: and I can't seem to uninstall it either. Typical

Uninstall
Not sure whats going on there, try and re-install over the top, it will tell you old version will need to be removed, say yes and then cancel the install when it comes to reinstall.
what rom are you running ?
Actually ive just noticed that since ive install XBmod latest manila pack im also unable to uninstall anything i put on, this it maybe a big in his pack, only noticed after i install wififofum today and its not on the list either.

udK's ROM (see sign)... Yeah, must be XBmod's Manila... can't seem to uninstall any other app I've installed either. Damn, but oh well =)
So you're using XBmod's Manila and are able to use all the functionality within the CommManger? I suppose the regkeys are within the CAB file? Otherwise, is the values in fix.reg those you're using?

Yeah its working fine on my rom and the cab now includes whats in fix.reg which basically sets the comm manager mode to the right them to use a background wallpaper.
If you try and re-install over the top, it will say you have to remove before it can reinstall, allow i to remove, then cancel the new installation. soft reset and your old comm manager skin is back.
if you can then give me an export of :
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\CommManager
i can look into it and see what the problem is, potentially i can rebuild you your own cab if theres something particular with your rom.

That's exactly what happens to me with the ROM in sign. Will update ROM soon, so I can report back.

worked great for me. thanx again plazma, cant wait to see what you come up with next! still lovin the calculator!!

New Developments
I think your getting the green bars more than once is because your rom must use more than one colour for transparency on my dev phone only #000000 (true black) is used for transpency, so the comm manager is slightly off black to work around this, work fine on mine and for others aparently. So i can only assume the people having problems with their roms is due to the above.. not sure how to fix it but will look into it.

[DISCUSSION][UNSOLVED] Differences in Manila Core(Manila 2_5_201212225_0 adding tabs)

I'm pretty stuck upgrading my rom to the new Manila core so many ppl are asking here in forum.
Many chefs included these Manila versions but I'm having a very hard time patching it to my liking so I wonder how you guys patched it?
Or maybe you didn't patch it at all and the functions I mention below just don't work in your rom?
Or maybe you are using a Manila which you don't need to patch at all and all these functions work default?
I'm no Manila expert but I tried to mix the Manila packages to get it working but no joy untill now.
Maybe someone knows how to fix the homebutton how Hank2 did on HTC Blackstone?
I tried to fix it using the files from Dopod Manila into Topaz Manila but it just doesn't work.
Also mixing packages doesn't work because the Core files are different.
I can't find any topics about it so I taught lets ask so we can improve Manila together so we have a good upgraded standard?
Maybe I'm the only Manila nOOb on this forum?
Here are the differences I discovered:
Dopod_Manila_Core_2_5_20112328_0
Cons:
No stock tab
No Twitter
Topaz Manila_Core_2_5_20113030_0
Cons:
Hardware homebutton doesn't work
No Footprints
Correct me if I'm wrong.
It would be great to have all HD2 standards in rom, Footprints plus stock tab plus Homebutton working, anyone is willing to coloborate?
Anyway I'm going to investigate more and hopefully find something I can share with you.
Thanks.
As promised and a thank you for your help here's my New Manila with FULL Dependencies to use in your kitchen.
It supports full landscape and has a Twitter and Footprints tab added.

Sure please.

Thanks for your help guys, I just figured it out myself after a couple of days searching.
The Manila I will use you can find in this Russian shipped rom shared here thanks to t0mmyr:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=628995&page=2
It contains Dopod_Manila_Core_2_5_20112328_0 plus working homebutton.
Offcourse you need the 0409 muis as well as it contains 0804.
Only the Twitter tab is missing, so to add more tabs you need to edit this manila file with a tekst editor:
26948339_manila
It contains the tab settings
If you want and all is working fine I can upload the Manila for you later.
Cheers and thanks for your help.

These are the manila packs i used. mostly from the latest TOPAZ ROM
exept doc explorer from 2.01 and footprints is from 1.66 if i remember correctly
EDIT:might be a few errors to sort out still !!!

I haven't any issue with buttons using manila from topaz 2.54

If you didn't modify something I'm 100% sure you have a issue only didn't notice it yet.
Scroll the manila tab to settings and now press the hardware homebutton.
It won't bring you to home.

the only problem i have now is manila freezes in the document tab sometimes after i have selected a document, but then sometimes it works fine, anyone have any ideas??

Thanks for sharing. I tried with only the packages you uploaded all the rest are from 2.02 Test. I seem to get lock ups everywhere. I was going to try to turn off the documents tab but it locks up when going into the menu, Settings page and more. I also found it strange but the music tab rotates but not photos tab.
Are you using some of the other support packages from the new ROM?

at the moment ive got all 1.66 packages apart from the ones in the package, document explorer is the only lock up im getting, im gonna take it out and see if sense is stable... the tab rotation is known issue. there is a fix for it around, where have u been experiencing the lock ups??

Can you make the Twitter tab rotate to?

Did you modify the tabs with the Manila file I suggested?
Currently I have Topaz Manila 2.5.20113030.0 running, pretty stable with added Footprints tab.
Also the homebutton is working great with the reg you suggested.
The only issue I'm facing is the Footprints tab sometimes resets Manila.
I will investigate more this afternoon.
Edit;
Just a taught, maybe it's HTCFramework you need from the T-Mob rom to fix freeze with doc tab?

[Solved] Messaging not working at all with 28230 and latest Rhodium OEMs

Hi guys!
I'm a bit afraid of asking...but anyway.
I'm cooking for the Xperia X1 right now using osKitchen (newUI). The Kitchen is great and I already figured out a lot of tweaks. Currently I am using Build 28230 SYS/XIP and everything is fine. Except for one thing: Messaging is not working at all!
I can start the tmail.exe and see the account-selector. but I cannot open or compose a new message. Both email and text is affected. I already tried to leave out some OEMs that I do not need (cooking a ROM without Manila 2.5 but some HTC tools) but with no success.
Is some component missing for this or is one of the OEMs just incompatible? Of course I am not using the HTC Message_Enhancment, as it is slow and I do not like it...
Does anyone have an idea of what is going one / wrong here? Any help is appreciated
Thanks a lot!

There is a module that you left out called webview.dll. Without this, you cannot see or compose any new mail/messages. It should be located either in BROWSING or in the root of the SYS.
Add it again in your kitchen and you will be in good shape again
Good luck!

Thanks man! You were right, I accidently forgot this package... I probably would never have found the real reason for this. Thanks a lot. I'm cooking now and reporting later after flash

OK, that fixed the problem! I am now able to read text messages and create new ones. Anyway, wenn I click compose the window opens but nothing is clickable. the whole app seems to be "locked" somehow. WM icons and menus are working even though...
What a mess Any further suggestions?

I think I found the fix. I used the latest SPRINT Rhodium ROM to get my sources and this is for cdma radio. Probably some cdma-specific packages caused the secon problem. Thanks anyway

Did you manage to find out the specific CDMA packages causing your sms problem?
I'm using packages from "RUU_Oboe_Dopod_CHS_1.04.706.2_Radio_0.90.00.0 826_ Ship" for my WWE Topaz and Rhodium using 25027. I don't cook in HTC message and HTC messenging client, i.e. just using MS email, when I want to create a new SMS, the SMS app closes. I tried using 24631 and got the same issue, that's why I narrowed the problem down to the Oboe packages.
I've read the above about the webview.dll, which is there. I also have arcsoft. So what else is causing my problem?

I think your problem is not related to webview.dll at all. If you have some time my advice would be to cook a clean ROM with everything working and then enable all packages which could cause the issue one by one. This means a lot of flashing and testing, but I cannot tell you which package caued the problem...and I would suspect several packages in combination.
Sorry that might not be as helpfull as you expected :-(

[SOLVED] Incoming call position fix

Hi Guys,
I cooked a WM6.5.5 ROM build 23541 based on RUU_Rhodium_S2_HTC_Europe_2.07.401.1
Most of things currently works perfectly, with the exception to the incoming call screen position. This is a small gap from the top which looks not very good.
I tried to apply fixes ex. here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=5910397#post5910397
This solved for me the scroll bar and the softpad overlap issues but the incoming call screen is still wrongly positioned.
Could anybody help me in solving this issue?
Thank you in advance and best regards!

You should replace

tpcutil.dll
from 235xx builds.
Pre-tested on 28232, 23106, 21636
At 23106 and 21636 should be replaced and lockscreen.dll

he said he was cooking 23541, why should he replace those dll files to fix position of incoming call screen? i assume the "fix" you are telling him to do is for the caller id problem with 231xx, 216xx, ect. but that isnt what he was asking.
as for helping you Lissek, sorry but i dont know a solution and as far as i know nobody has figured it out yet. you can try opening phcanrc.dll and some of the other dlls in the phone canvas pkg with a resource editor like restorator, this is how the scrollbar on dialpad was fixed...maybe there is something that can be done im just not sure.

yes you are right
i just read it fast..
do you have fix for 6.5.x and landscape incoming call?

First of all thank you guys for your help!
twopumpchump, I flashed your ROM and I see that you don't have a problem with incoming call screen position in your ROM. This is positioned perfectly well.
Mine is positioned a little bit too low and I simply see the fragment of the screen with the operator name in that gap.
I have that problem only on incoming call screen, dialer is positioned ok.
I tried to compare dialogs from phcanrc.dll you use with the one with my ROM and I see no difference.
Have you ever observed that in your ROMs?
Might it be related to the kitchen I use? I don't think so, but.. when I use osKitchen my ROM boots ok, but when I use EVK my ROM hangs on the first use screen once the progress bar reaches the end.

and you still have the problem???? :S

B16b: unfortunately yes... I applied alex fix, but this solved only scroll bar and softpad overlap but NOT incoming screen position...
maybe you are using dialer from quilin or another? this is not a very big issue, but you know, I'm quite curious how to fix ;-)
anyway, I flashed recent NRGZ28 energy rom and saw that he has the same problem, so maybe this is somehow generic problem...
but at least I have my own 23554 based on EUR stock ROM, quite stable, and only with modifications that I really need and like
