Cant see screen in sun

3 replies · 2,066 views · Started 04 July 2006

Can anyone suggest a simple theme which will allow me to see the info on the screen better. The standard ones and all the normal downloadable ones are very pretty but not very clear.

I tried to download one just called simple but it did not have all the information shown i.e. if you were changing the T9 input it would not show what characters it was changing to as the normal themes would do in the top right hand part of the screen.

I realise that no screen will be clear in sunlight but just want a basic one which will show the screen better.

I read somewhere that some of the plastic anti-scratch screen savers make the screen more visible in sunlight because of the way they diffuse the light, not sure how good they work in practice though..I am still using the one that came with the phone.

Thanks Cash

I have the crystal case on my phone which I dont know if helps much is slightly scratched so does make it worse but keeps phone protected.

I have not tried the screen protectors will look and see what I can get.
