Ok guys here is one for you, I've found this lovely font set i would like to use it for the long term. However, there are some problem the font only works for the english language on account of a number of missing characters. If anyone could have a look at it, maybe fill in the missing characters (if that is possible) i would greatly appreciate it.

@5nak3:here they are. There were some fonts missing (shift,enter,etc) and they've fixed it.

I followed emyh and scotland67 guides and here you have a updated z8 font with the missing keyboard characters (return, shift etc). Also hebrew and arabic included.

Works perfectly on my P1i phone and it looks nice!
If you need a guide how to install them, check out the great p1iblog site here!

Here's a font I found on the net, that displays little characters, so it seems you have a VGA screen

to change font on uiq3 phones, there are fonts in c:\\resource\\fonts . choose a font from your pc, copy it four times, and rename these copies as in the c:\\resource\\fonts . and copy these new 4 files in your memory stick d:\\resource\\fonts\\ with a usb cable or directly with a card reader. then restart your phone. if anything goes wrong, erase your new files in memory stick, or boot your phone without ms. and dont use your phone without memory stick. it may cause system halt. cause your phone needs to access the fonts always.

FOR W960i,
this is the hardest one, and may be dangerous. if you do something wrong, format your phone or find a way to access your phones disk without opening the phone.
do the access system folders mod, which can be found on forum. and use a file manager and copy these files to d:\\resource\\fonts on phone and restart your phone.

oh sorry it should be "z:\resources\fonts" .
and sorry again for double slashes. must be a bug.
i recommend you to use xplore to do these, you can access your folders and files in a file tree, many open places at the same time.

if you wanna edit the \resource\ folder on phone, you must have the access system folders patch done. otherwise you must use usb cable with file transfer mode or card reader.

edit: these double slahes "" are happening in cause of a forum script. i think.

No, just rerstart each time you change it, and it'll load your new font as it boots. Do remember to put your fonts on the memory stick, rather than overwriting the original ones - makes it easy to remedy a mistake if you pick a font the phone doesn't like

... Basically, you mirror the files on the rom- drive (z:) over on the mem- stick. And then replace the files on the mem- stick with something else. The phone then reads those files with the identical names on startup, instead of the ones on the rom- drive.

For example, the fonts need to be in d:\\resource\\fonts\\
And there should be four files in the directory:
Sans-Serif_Latin-Regular.ttf
Sans-Serif_Latin-Bold.ttf
Sans-Serif_Latin-BoldItalic.ttf
Sans-Serif_Latin-Italic.ttf

So you'll have to rename your fonts to match those, and then put those in the directory on the mem- stick.

(I'm sure there's some real potential for doing harm here, but not as long as the replaced files are ttf- files. If things don't work out, just delete the files with x-plore or the cable, and reboot the phone. Worst case, reboot the phone without the mem- card. So.. it's a reversible and safe hack that doesn't actually overwrite anything.)



Just incase you're too lazy to look.....
