BB Curve 8520/8530 :: Change Home Screen Font Size?
Mar 29, 2010
I have an 8530 on the Sprint network and would like to know if it's possible to change the size of the fonts on the home screen? If so, can someone post the instructions?
I have a curve 8530. How do I change the icons on the home screen? Also, the messages icons, there are 2, one plain envelope and one envelope with a earth on it. Do the same messages from the earth one (which I assume means email) go into the plain envelope one which I think means ALL messages including BB PIN Messages? And then to other texts show up in the plain one?
I looked through the forum and couldn't find this question answered before, so please forgive me if it has.Is there any way to do away with the Home screen altogether? I'd like to be able to just have the Apps shown. I'm sure there's probably a theme out there to do it, but I'd rather not have to use a theme.
I downloaded a theme and now I can't get the shortcuts back on my home screen that I had before. Is there a way to change them back ? How do I go back to the way it was with a picture that I had taken as my wallpaper?
How to get rid of the new message indicator from the home screen? when I get a new message and read it, the little red asterix does not go away until you move the icons in the applications screen and then it fails to show once you've done that.
Have a msg notification on the homescreen,but when checked no new msg is there.Where do I find this.I've checked all emails,mms,sms txts.I've even deleted everything and its still there?
Quick question for you..I updated my OS to .654 and when I did, my email inbox icon was represented by the Y that yahoo has trademarked. I thought that was really cool, but all of sudden it disappeared and now I have the boring envelope with a globe as my Email icon.
I have a Curve 8520, and suddenly tonight, I have a read message icon on the home screen that won't go away. I have no emails or messages at all on my phone anymore, and I cleared the messages from the advanced tab thingy on the desktop manager. I've done a battery pull, turned it off and waited a few minutes before turning it back on, and nothing has worked. I even tried sending a text message to my phone from my husband's, and it showed up as 2 messages on the icon, but when I deleted that new text msg, it went back down to 1 read message and is still there.
My husband got a curve 8530 the other day. All of the people in his address book have "classic ringer" as their custom ring tone along with the volume set about midway like its some kind of default setting. I have tried changing the profiles/ringtones and creating new ones (with different tones) this does not change the ringer for those 80+ people. In the Set Contact Alert menu there are only 3 people with a custom tone showing.The Classic Ring is not loud enough for him to hear and no matter how I try to change the default ringer it does not change the ring for the contact list.I've done a battery pull, no change.Updated it to newest OS.Contact list was imported from a Storm 2(he likes having actual buttons to push).
Am I missing something or 1) shouldn't all those people show up in the Set Contact Alert Menu, if there is a custom tone set up or 2) shouldn't their default change if I change the default for the phone.I haven't checked all of them, but did check at least 10 and regardless of what I do they're still the same. Ringer shows Classic all other options say active profile.Is there any way I can change their default ringer without having to give each one a custom ring--too time consuming?
Is there a way to decrease home button sizes? I feel like they are unecessairly big. Also for some reason compared to note 5 and nexus 6p I feel like everything is a tad bit bigger. I have set the display size to smallest but the resolution on my v10 seems to be a little bit magnified.
Using the native email application - it uses black/red fonts as default.Can I easily change the font colour? Can I change the font? Can I personalize the email application.
I have read a lot about people wanting to know how to change their font size on the phone, and I've subseuently read how people are getting advice to download apps for this etc.I wanted to let you know how I do it and hope that it helps......While you are in within a text message, or, about to compose one, tap the 2nd menu button along the bottom (the one with the 3 lines). You will see the options: All messages/Quick Text/Compose/Call/Attach/MoreTap on 'More' and there is another menu, where you then choose 'Text size'.
Could someone please tell me how in god's name do you change the font size of the phone numbers in your contacts and phone logs.Also where can I get a voice command app for my N900.

I have checked all the settings and find no way to change the font size on sent or received texts. Very aggravating to have to find my glasses everytime I receive a text!
On my E7-00, I have two mailboxes - Yahoo and Mail for Exchange.Is it possible to change the font size in the Exchange client?The font size is huge (looks absurd on the big screen), and it is much larger than the display of the Yahoo mails. This means I have to keep taking my glasses on and off when switching between the two!I cannot find any settings to change the font.
I have a Galaxy S6 with Android 5.1.1. When I first purchased my phone a couple of months ago, I could change my font sizes in the messaging app using the volume buttons. That no longer works. I can however change the font sizes by pinching. What do I have to do to have the volume keys change the font sizes again? Or was that feature removed by one of the updates?
I've had my 8530 for a little over a month, every once in awhile after I end a call the screen goes blank but when I use the track pad the screen comes back in sections. After I use the track pad to scroll upper left then upper right the bottom right and bottom left the screen is normal. Has anyone else had this issue?
I have had a new icon on my home page that moves to the upper right near the wifi icon when using the 8530. It has a 3 and right next to it is a black circle with a red mark on upper right edge of circle. Almost resembles the old round cartoon bombs from years ago. Just showed up on my phone last week.
