I know this blows! everytime i post i have problems!

ok, i went and got my phone SW upgraded from R2E006 to R6A012 at an official Fido Service centre. He upgraded my T68i to R6A012. My Text size is set to Small, i have always liked it like that. Now after the upgrade i'm having the following problems with my Display!

1. All the text is small (which is what i want) except in some menus.
2. Text in the following menus is set to large! :

Call Contact
Missed Calls
And basically every 2nd Sub-Menu. The main screen is fine, the text is set to small, but every second menu option has Large text!

Now this is very annoying! because i loved my phone with the small text. The large text is displeasing to the eye. Is there any way to get it all back to small text?

I have tried Master Reset 2 times and Reboot 2 times. But still no luck.

Thanx

PS: I just ordered my MCA -25 off Ebay! it should be here in a few days! YAY!

I honestly think they've just changed the format so there's nothing you can do.....maybe they flashed it with the wrong firmware...i use a t68ie and it's always been the big text etc etc... but maybe use have a t68i. I don't know just guessing.... but the easiest way to tell is if you got chinese inthe languages then you're using a t68ie....if not then t68i.... either way at least you mca25 will have the zoom function and backgrounds too.

i have T68ie

My keypad even has Japanese characters on it!

So i know for sure i have th T68ie, also because the sticker below the battery says so.

So is there nothin i can do at all?

I like the speed of the phone, it has gone up, but maybe i wanna go back to R2E just for the text! this large text is soo annoying!
argh!

I am sure i have the T68ie and it has JAPANESE Characters. I know that they are japanese characters, because my japanese friend told me so. None of my chinese friends can recognize those characters.

When i had R2E i had like 6 languages on my phone, now i only have english and chinese.
Not that i care, but before R6A i had English, Russian, Farsi, Arabic, Chinese, Cyrillic ( dono which lang. that is) , and maybe one more...dont remember that well.

But, if i'm using the english language, shudnt those menus go to small text like they were when i used R2E ?

interesting...
i never heard about that before.
anyways, the new versions are like that nothing u can change about it. i never used r2, so i don't know about the old ones. but if it really bothers u that much u can try to go back since there's no other way to get rid of it.

u can't change it. unless u use back the R2 firmware. normally this appear when u have a contact written in chinese(or maybe japanses).

check ya phone support chinese or japanese or not. if they do... tell them u want the european version.

maybe u can try the above.
