Stock JB - ugly fonts? - LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769

Hi. I tried both offline KDZ and CWM image of V20B 4.1.2 and in all cases the JellyBean ROM has hideous fonts in menus.
Installing other fonts doesn't help. The thin ones look especially bad, as if sub-pixel hinting was disabled. I love the L9's display and on ICS the fonts looked very crisp, but after the update it just doesn't cut it.
And yes, it does matter to me. It's a P760. If you have some workaround, please help. I tried the recent CM10.1 and it looks MARVELLOUS, but due to the bugs I can't keep it.
Cheers.

I think it is fine,,, maybe it is only.my feeling

I am also here. JB Fonts are really good. Bold and Beautiful. Beauty is in the eyes of beholder. lolz :laugh:

I would appreciate a way to "restore" the ICS fonts, i hate those bold fonts... And setting the font size to small makes it even worse.

If you really want to theme up your phone (including a Vanilla theme) but don't mind some occasional bugs, check out "HeLauncher" from the market.
Otherwise your best bet is to use Launcher Pro, since IMHO that runs the smoothest that I've used of any launcher on the Atrix...

Thanks ill be looking in them.. hope i can get that vanilla theme that i miss os much
ive tested them... they just change the home... sorry i was looking that changes the overall system theme, like having back the grey notifications bar.... thanks anyway

[BOOTANIMATION] ICS Bootanimation

Hey guys, here is the original ICS Bootanimation.
This is for Defy only, not just taken from Galaxy Nexus, it fits the resolution of the Defy well.
Note! Flashable over Defy only!
Instructions:
Flash from recovery.
No wipes needed.
Enjoy
Screenshot?
Just a few frames... Looks like a bunch of colored pieces that come together in the center of the screen, making a bright light in the center.

Now having installed it, it is hard to describe, more like a bunch of pieces all flipping over with a bright light source positioned somewhere in front of the screen. It was fun to install for a change.

So... Does DEFY+ count as a DEFY? I'm guessing it's free to flash on it, as well, but gotta check

Sounds (and looks) interesting enough! Thanks for the screenshots If it's safe for mb526, too, I'll flash it right away. Have we got a matching splashscreen?
looks cool !!
This is how it looks: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zSTWtCG1HlI#at=45
And yes, you can install this over the Defy+. The reason I blocked the other devices is because or resolution mismatches.
I have to say, i really like it. But I have to say that it's a bit to colourful for me
works great thanks very much. It's nicer than default boot image in CM9
works great!

download whatever you like. And simply install the apk.. then go into SETTINGS>THEMES and they show up there. I would download a few of them and see what suits your taste. You can uninstall the theme at the same location by simply long pressing the theme there.
Sometimes it says theres a error in installing. Juat install anyways.. it works
If when trying to switch themes and it says the theme is compiled wrong error. Switch to system theme.. reboot.. then apply the theme.. its a work around
New mrDsL Link some of the best MIXERTHEMES for cm9 themes.. everything is themed CONTACS. NOTIFICATION POWER MENU, STATUSBAR, ..AWESOME THEME! HAVE TO CHECK OUT
Can you list the high quality ones? Or the ones that are your favorites?
Added 2 more themes I found to bottom of list...very nice themes.. a must try..
Finally got around to trying themes. Very cool. Thanks for the links!

No prob...which ones do you you like the most? I'm really liking the mixertheme by mrDsl.. alot of themers don't include icons for the phone contacts he includes them.. which look nice during calls..
Tried out SSD and the motomixer. Something about stock keeps bringing me back though. I guess the cleanliness. CM9 looks really good all on its own I think, especially at 240 dpi. The aokp looked good too, could never get the mms to download though. I'll probably continue checking back to see what new you have come across though.

If you like the clean look of cm9.. try that mixer ics one.. it seems to add the blue icons to settings icons and color most of them instead of the plain grey ones.. it enhances the stock look and feel and makes it look how ics should be...worth a shot....or are you staying on another rom?

[Q] Stock ICS instead of TouchWiz

I seriously dislike the TouchWiz UI. It's very boring and dull, I love the way stock Android looks with its dark and light blue theme, very minimalistic and intuitive and I hate the way TouchWiz is just black grey and a mixture of other colors. I'm using NovaLuancher but it only changes the home screen, I'm looking for stock android settings menu and notification/status bar. Is there a solution to this yet? Putting stock ICS on the Galaxy S3? Or are there any launchers or skins that make the settings menu and notifications look like stock ICS?
No one? I'd also like to know.

Check themes and apps section.. If you can't find any themes, then no.. Just hang on... There will be 100 theme releases soon where all is "aosp" and every rom is AOSP themed. Cm9 and aokp will sure also find its way some day

Forgive my ignorance but I've been a iOS user since the first iPhone and I just switched to ICS because I was sick of the iPhone. What is AOSP? I know what CM9 is, what would you recommend me to install on my phone?
AOSP stands for "Android Open Soruce Poject" it is basally the barebone android OS made by Google for all to see. Many roms are based off of it, as the code is release soon after googles flagship nexus devices.
I like aosp too but dont yiu guys think it makes the phone look cheap? I find touchwiz icons classy..
I would suggest waiting a month or so after your carrier gets it to put a custom ROM on it. By then a lot of bugs well have been worked out and there will be some great tutorials available.

no, because you can customize it to your liking. there are thousands of options.
to the op download a launcher and it might imprve your experience.
I doubt CM9 or other stock ICS ROMs will have features like smart stay or s voice...if they do include them, that would be awesome!

CM9 for SGS3 would be custom to suit the S3.. So I'm sure it would include all the features unique only to the S3....
I think the TouchWiz 5 UI is quite nice, MUCH better than the 4.0 on my SGSII, however, I use Nova launcher because S launcher is driving me crazy
Nevertheless, AOSP is still much better, and as the SGSIII is a hugely successful and famous device, so it won't take long for the first AOSP roms to spread from the ground Just have a look at the SGSII
cheers
