I don't know if it's just me but the fonts look "strange". The small fonts are not very clear. It looks as if the fonts have sub-pixel rendering but it just doesn't look too good. In honey comb, and ICS they looked normal. Has anything changed with Jelly Bean releases? I find the same issue with the Iconia A100 running JB.
Cheers!
No one elese has this experience?
Yeah I just checked my tablet and mine also has mirky fonts... Especially in the Google calendar widget
I'll try a backup and replace the fonts from Nexus
Edit: Well I even flashed Segoe UI font pack, but the fonts are still mirky. Too bad

I am using the Villain Lite 2.0 ROM but this has Helvetica S removed and I really could do with it back. My eye sight is not what it used to be.
You could try this font app: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.hongik.fontomizerSP&feature=search_result
Doesn't have Helvetica but it's got a lot of fonts you can try, should be a nice big one for those old eyes!
Yes, there was no Helvetica but there was Verdana which is my old favourite font, so it turned out to be a very good solution. These old eyes thank you.
Reference sight i an trialling this at the moment big button keyboard .

Could someone upload Heveltica S?
I flashed MIUI and that's the only font that I like
is there any way of doing this like what you see on sgs2?
No you can't. Samsung got some fonts preinstalled. This is not the case with Sony. Only one font available.
Big Font from market seems to be working...
Don't if it leads to lower quality bur can't really see a difference.
Hello,
My father has an EVO 3D GSM, he is still running Stock ICS. It's not even rooted.
Sometimes he has problems with his Evo3D because the font size is too small for him to read (although he normally just needs his glasses to read things like newspapers).
On my Sensation (Running Cyanogenmod9) I've got the option to change the font size from small to gigantic (maybe it's not called gigantic, but it looks like it).
I don't want to change his rom from stock to cm, cause his PC knowledge isn't that good and he always needs help if there is a change. So changes = bad.
Is there any way to change the font size on normal Sense 3.6 ICS on Evo3D?
It shouldnt be a problem if i root the device, but it should stay on stock rom.
Thank you for your help.
Kind regards
Fabi
You could try flashing a font with a larger typeface or at least an easier to read one, after rooting of course. Unfortunately, sense does not have a way to resize fonts afaik.

Do you have any example for such a font?
Or do you know a "hack" to change that settings parameter?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
No, but the program I use is called Rom Toolbox Pro (available in the Play Store, there is a free version you could try). It requires root, but it allows you to flash fonts from a large list of available fonts and shows you a preview of the font first. You (or your father) could choose the one you like best.

I'm not a modder so I wouldn't know where to start,. After I updated my tab to ICS I noticed Sammy reskinned the calendar with a terribly outdated faux skin theme (apple style), it seems like this os the only app with such an ugly thing going on.
Is it possible to skin it with something more in theme with the rest of the ICS touchwiz style?
Hey guys, have seen a ROM for Nexus 5 i.e "Pure white"
would like to know if porting the settings.apk is possible?
love the white UI of that ROM
I know as we're having an Amoled display it'll eat battery but still it could be a good thing to look different then all other Black or HOLO UI
