[X2] Change hex layout back to square - XPERIA X2 General

Hi!
I still don't have my X2 back from service, but I'd like to ask in advance:
How can I change the hexagonal icons layout back to the square layout? The hexagonal makes me feel dizzy.
Thanks

Start menu transparency after theme change

When I changed the theme from my MDA II from T-Mobile to Windows_Default and back to T-Mobile, I noticed two things:
- Start menu suddenly is transparent (see-thru)
- As the menu-items are in white text (and the underlying T-Mobile today screen is too), I can hardly read them anymore.
Any clue how to change the appearance of the start menu??
well when you make a skin you deside what picture you want on the background and on the startmenu if the same picture are chosen both places it will look as if the menu is transparent
you can use a skin maker to change the skin if you like
Thanks for the suggestions.
Maybe my question was unclear: I did not create any new skin. Just chose another Theme in Settings/Today and then changed it back.
Before I did this, the start menu was not transparent OR the menu items where in an different colour than white.
I just wanna be able to ga back to the original T-Mobile Theme

I noticed this too, the T-Mobile theme initially has black font color in it's Start Menu, but after changing the theme, the Start Menu font color will stay white forever. And for some reason you cannot alter the start menu text color directly.
If I remember correctly, there ought to be a registry key where you can set the text color for Start Menu items, but I'm not sure...
the default start menu colour in 2003 is white
and the default start menu colour in 2002 is black
if the skin dont active change the startmenu colour it will be default
work around
1 change the skin so it makes the text colour different from default
2 use another skin
Foun the topic:

Here it will explain how to alter the registry so you can change the start menu text color to whatever color you fancy ^O^[/img]
Fixed it!!
Thanks for the solution.
I getting as handy in modifying the registry as I am on my laptop . . . :lol:
you probably have a background image now?
The way I choose my startmenu background color and/or image =
make a (small) bmp with only the color you want.
then open this bmp file with resco explorer.
when image is viewed press 'menu'.
and then press 'set as background'
At least works for me with my Touch Pro, it won't change the TouchFlo3d background, but it will change the Startmenu background.
To change the startmenu text color go into registry and edit the following:
HKLocalMachine -> Software -> Microsoft -> Color ->
Binary Value 39 = Startmenu Text Color
white = FF FF FF 00
Black = 50 50 50 00 (i think)
cheers

How to change dialer font size

Hi
Does anybody know how to change font size for dialer items? Each item height is quite big, but item's text is small. And maybe there is way to remove this something (is this contact type?) on the right side of each item (eg. "<k>").

New WM6.1 Today screen proposition

Hi!
I like wm6.1 standard today screen, I have all necessery informations in one place, but it is extremly not confortable to use it by fingers. So, maybe some can build today plugin like this, prepered by me in Fireworks. Positions are high twice, and letters fonts are bigger.
It's not a app or theme. Just go to: Options > System tab > Screen and change default text font size
yes, size jest but height no. I don't know how to make it bigger minimum twice.
Use WAD2 or M2D.

I'm changing EzInput 2.1.xxxx.xxxx theme,but i want to use black keys but the font of the letters is black and is not readable,so i watch if is possible to set it to white.
I don't interested to the default SIP that came with WM buillds...
Try to edit EZInputSettings.xml,there are some strings inside that target to colour fonts.

That xml is used to create the UI of sip settings not for keyboard layout.

you'd better follow the instructions from Merlin_reloaded in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334781&page=1

HOWTO: Change Default Font in WM6
I for one don't really like the default Tahoma font, so I thought I'd share how to change the default font.
Using the default Vista font "Segoe UI"
1. Copy your font file (usually *.ttf) into /Windows/Fonts. Be sure to note the INTERNAL name of the font (find it out by double-clicking on the file in Windows)
in this case "Segoe UI"
2. Using your favorite registry editor, navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GDI\SysFnt
3. Find the key named "Nm". Replace what's in it (usually Tahoma) with the name of the font, in this case "Segoe UI"
4. Repeat III for "HKLM\SYSTEM\GWE\Menu\Menufnt\Barfnt" and "Popfnt"
4.1 Under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GDI\V1
- look for something like FontAliases. The keys inside represent the font "choices" -you have (which default to Tahoma), and look like Arial:-12. Change the value -from Tahoma* to Segoe UI*.
- Rinse and repeat.
5. Reset
And that's it ! The Segoe font renders much more easier to the eyes with Cleartype (and the spacing is really nice)
Do post newer font faces that look nice on QVGA screens
