Adjusting Font Sizes in S60 3rd Edition...

Thanks for reminding me about the 1 Nokia I'm most interested in and cant have! .........and you got it Angel.....no 850 ...no chance!
 
I haven't tried this yet, as I don't have a card reader, but seems harmless enough. I found this simple tutorial on another site. Just remember not to place them in the phones memory, but on your memory card. I'm also fairly sure that the size of fonts can't be changed but you can change the type which may help.

Here is how:

You have to have a card reader. On the card you have to create a folder FONTS in the resource folder and paste contents of one of the zip file to FONTS, put the card in the phone and restart. The fonts should be used. I have to warn you that installing fonts on the E: drive (which is the expansion memory) will turn off the ability for the phone to in the Data Transfer mode, this is due to the fact that the phone has exclusive rights to the font files after you place them on the memory card. You should never place fonts on the phone's memory because then you would have to format the phone to get rid of them. When you want to change fonts you will have to replace the ones in the E:\resource\fonts with a new set of font files. You can only do this with a card reader, the phone will not let you rename, delete or copy-over the font files once it starts using them.
 
Yeah, but it is no fun using the e50's screen. At the moment I am stuck with it. I should have returned it immediately. A friend tried it for a day and simply said NO WAY and went for a 6233. He is quite happy with it as a phone. I am recommending 6300 to another couple of friends. No point in slow symbian for them - they just want a decent fast phone.
 
The E50 does not represent the speed of all s60. My 2+ year old 6260 is much faster than the 6133 I bought and returned recently and ironically, more difficult to use.

Either way, speed has nothing to do with font size. Stop threadjacking.
