Just wanted to double check with pro's here to make sure that adding a font set is not possible unless one has root access. I need to add non-English font support to Browser and email client to be able to read other languages.
I tried to change the font on Kyocera Rise with Font Installer, after it was complete it required to reboot but now its on boot loop. When i go to Android System Recovery the bottom says E:cannot load volume /misc!

About four-five days ago I've began receiving text messages from the number "9999999999".(I'm aware it's not a real number) The texts always contain random symbols, no actual words. It's not a foreign language, it's honestly pure symbols. They had hit the 100mark as of yesterday. 100 text messages received from this nut. I receive them at all times of the day and my number is on the do not call list. (not sure if that applies to texting, but yeah..)
I did not reply to them until yesterday where I sent stop, end, #, etc in attempt to end the madness. I've also blocked the number "9999999999" using my phone providers websites. All my attempts to prevent the texts have failed. I still get them from the same 999 number.
Example of such text is
"� `P �� € 13 ƒƒcK �K{q{�s!s� skk™kk+›› ;( |$o��$d � +�r33q��3;R�
)ƒ� lŒH� Y‰� �ɡ�‘ � z��‚)�‚bjp 4T p
�l@, DŽ C�� �y{kk›"
While doing a google search that contained a small portion of a text I've received, THESE are the result. Broken webpages with the same symbols I receive just in a different order. I want two things to be honest... A method to stopping this and to know what the text is written in so maybe I could decode it and find out what each text says. I want them both equally the same.
When I use Facebook or even Instagram, I noticed people use these special symbols in the comments or in their status update.
So finally, I decided to ask my friend how they did it.
They told me iPhone already comes with it in their keyboard.
Unfortunately, there's none for the Android built in.
So I did a search on the Google Play and found out there's tons apps that can do it.
I have Samsung S3 so I just wondering which app is the best one to install on my phone that is free?
I just flashed the newest CyanogenMod 10.2-ROM (cm-10.2-20131014-NIGHTLY-i9100.zip) and accidentally changed one of the lockscreen symbols. Well actually I was just curious of what I can do with the new ROM.
However, after realising I had changed on symbol, I hit the reset button in the upper right corner. It did not restore the default, white symbols, but instead removed the remaining two default symbols, leaving me with the white padlock. Now my question: how do I restore the default symbols, without a factory reset?
Solution: you can change the symbol independently from the started app by pressing on it a few seconds while choosing its position on the lockscreen.
First question:
Does the default sans serif font in Android support italic? Oddly, you can see italic sans serif text if you indicate it as such in the xml of a layout file, but if you specify sans serif and italic to a typeface of a paint object it appears nonitalic. The exact same code works perfectly for bold for both serif and sans serif, but italic only works with sans serif.
Has anyone else ever noticed this? Can anyone else specify sans serif italic to a paint object?
Second question:
So, to specify a font directly by name, it appears that it must be reference by file or path as an asset. It looks like such fonts are always specified as bundled with the app. Are they *any* internal fonts at all? I mean, how does Android draw text in the first place? It must have *some* fonts, but I have no idea how to indicate them to a Typeface object (or a Paint object). I mean, Courier? Times? Helvetica? I'm looking for basic stuff here? Where are the fonts on Android?
My problem, I have a Samsung Infuse 4g with gingerbread which I installed through Odin with all the info I gathered reading post here. When the problem occurred of no network access, the phone had the stock froyo firmware and that had been working very well until now.
I cannot get data at all. I can get on wifi, send calls and text messages. I tried changing the mobile network access points and nothing. One thing that I did notice after reading all your post, was that my IMEI is a bunch of symbols, diamonds, question marks, etc.. but is not numbers like it should. The issue started with the stock firmware (froyo) and continues with GB. Another thing is that I have never backup the system at all, I currently cannot find an EFS folder, even after installing RootExplorer.
I dont put all kinds of fancy utilities on the phone, the only one there is Golf app. This just happened out of nowhere. The phone is not even a year old which I got from ATT. You can say, send back to ATT for warranty! I am a Soldier stationed in Germany, because my account with ATT is suspended until my return to the US, the warranty does not cover the phone. In the end I am screwed anyway since I changed the firmware to GB and it is rooted. My questions are;
1. Is it possible that I dont have an EFS folder?
2. The lack of EFS folder constitutes to an unreadable IMEI?
3. What can I do to fix it? Is there a dummy guide to fix this?
Trying to send smileys back and forth to my wife's Palm Pre and while she gets my smileys, I do not get them to appear when she sends them to me. Odd thing is, both my phone and her phone use the same symbol ": )" for example. Also, anyway to get different ones besides the android ones?
View 1 Replies View RelatedAm from Singapore and am new to these forums. I just purchased my Tattoo , but many things which I had looked forward to are amiss , and I need help going about configuring them , so here goes.
1. How do I get smileys on my messages? Smileys being the android faced ones , and ones that I don't have to type the emoticon representative (=-D or D-=) to get. I'm tryin' to get the smileys auto placed , so that I can just tap on one when I want to use it.
2.Is there a facebook app that does NOT connect me to the browser?
3.On my main page , I've put the big clock + weather widget that's most commonly found on HTC Phone advertisements:
I wanna ask a few questions on that.
-Does the weather update even WITHOUT wi-fi on?
-And the section that's supposed to show the area of which you're in ; I got that section to show Singapore and even my EXACT location before , but now , even if wi-fi enabled , it just shows "Current city". I think I toggled with the wi-fi settings a little bit for that to happen. Does anyone know how that works?
4.I previously used a SonyEricsson k85Oi. I'm not sure if that changes or means anything , but when I had just got my Tattoo and put in my SIM card for the first time , my contacts integrated perfectly , but under each name there is a /1 after it , eg John/1. I know that means the count of numbers I have in my phone , but is there any way to remove that? My contacts weren't saved like this in my k85O. And also , my contacts aren't synching with my facebook , or anything for that matter of fact. I'm not sure why , but I've saved two new contacts after I got my Tattoo , and only those two are appearing when I decide to add them in my "Favourtie contacts" app. Is there anyway to just combine all my contacts from before and after together , and also sync ALL of them to my facebook?
5.How do I go about configuring my GPRS / GPS settings so much so that I can have internet anywhere? Even though my provider doesn't allow me free data charges , I would just like to know how , and possibly try it at least once.
I have an HTC Desire, now my wife has a brand new Android phone. What would make her happy would be able to view smileys in a more traditional form rather than the Android-themed ones.
Is it possible to download an alternative set of smileys?

It really does all that I want in my phone but I missed the XDA HTC_MOD Keyboard w/smileys. After some research on XDA I found that for this phone I needed the LOW RES. version of this keyboard. Here is the link for The instructions and where to download the .zip file to get the job done.
[MOD] HTC_IME (8th June) v27: Small fix - xda-developers
The process was very straight forward on the unzip and install but I ran into trouble getting the keyboard to actually start on my phone. When they say to "kill" the keyboard.
Here are the instructions that worked for me:
"You don't need to kill the keyboard to enable it, but there is an option at the bottom of this keyboards settings menu for "Kill Keyboard" and that's what it's referring to."
"After you have enabled it you need to select this as your active keyboard. Go to any screen you can type in (compose a new text message for example) and long press in the text input box. Select choose input method, then select the HTC_IME mod."
This is really just a silly thing but it's bugging me - I've put the Android keyboard on the phone after the upgrade to 2.1 and the preview of the smileys has disappeared
I can see them in their raw form by long pressing the smiley face on the number pad, but I'm not fluent in smiley language! and also, not all of them translate anyway; I can't get the angry face anymore for example.
Is there any way of getting the smiley page to work as it did on 1.8, where the More button would bring up the pictures? (can you tell I have a banging headache this morning, having trouble with words.
This is my first post. I've had a Moto Droid since day one, and I just love it. It is without a doubt better than any phone that I've had over the years, and that includes the iPhone, BB, etc.
However, there are 2 things that I don't understand - Font size and a spell checker. It is imposiible to read the small font size in emails or text messages.
1. Why has there not been an app to either change the font size or be able to zoom in? Picasy has incorporated multi-touch for zooming, so I've to assume that its doable! Why not have the same in an email client.
2. Why is there not an email client out there that allows for spell checking? There are many such apps for the BB! I am a terrible speller.
I am not complaining, I just want to understand the limitations from a developers prospective, as I am sure these isuues will eventually be addressed.
How do I input a '' sterling symbol? Phone default to dollars '$' which is great but we don't use the dollar in Norn Iron. Also Euro symbol would be handy. Looked through all the settings and can't find any way to change the default.

I am a big smiley face, heart, music symbol person. Coming from my bb in the apps I used most like twitter, there were options for symbols. I cannot find not one keyboard that has hearts or music symbols included. Granted I havent tried any that you have to pay for, in fear that I'll be wasting my money. So could someone PLZ tell me if there is ANY keyboard out there that has hearts and music symbols?

I am new to Samsung Captivate. When my screen is locked i see a series of symbols in the upper right corner. I see the same symbols when I pull down the notification bar, right above where it says "No Notifications" if I don't have any. They are @@@^oe@@ I find it very weird. I have been looking and I can't figure out if I can change those symbols or just get rid of them.
