thx in advanced😡 :con?

Maybe you should say which "the site" you go to, exactly (with a link/URL)?

And it might also be good to explain, step-by-step what you tried and what happened after each step.

the 2 links i visit to give some info 2 change my n70 font
but it not worked at all..:frown:

crazylittleworld.com/2006/03/...ia-n70-part-3/
or here
symbian-freak.com/tunning/fontquide/font.html

i follow all the steps that write it on the forum....

but doest work...

like removing first the font den send the file of gdr. and make a folder name font on c:\system\font\old.gdr

den restart the phone...
but nothing happens...........awtz:frown:

I followed the symbian freak guide and it worked no problems.
Are your fonts appearing in the GDR creator preview ok?
What happens when you install the gdr file and reboot - anything?

Give us a bit more detail.

As long as you have a GDR font in the fonts folder it will work.
Switch between them by renaming them and making the one that you want to be used appear first in the directory (put a 0 in front of the name).

ok ...

i create folder name fonts in c:\system

den i put der the gdr. file that i create in gdr creater..........

only one gdr file in the folder of fonts in c:.....

i remove first my font before i put the gdr. file in cp!

then i put the file i created....

then i restart my phone....

and nothing happens stil my font is default....=(

what do i do 2 my n70?

in z:\system\fonts have also gdr file?

what is that for?:con? :frown:

to follow...........

i have a question its ok dat when sending the gdr. file on the phone im using mmc

reader and send it to the mail folder and find it using the fexplorer....

and i also find the gdr file and cut den paste it into fonts folder...

bcoz on the symbian-freak forum on the step their it using bluetooth.....

that's ok?!...........

Why don't you put the gdr file straight on E:\System\Fonts ? It should work also from MMC - at least on my N70 it worked.

I believe your n70 might be a chinese version. Having the same problem
trying to replace fonts before .Look around on how to replace the product code
and flash the latest firmware.That did the trick for me and I could randomally replace the fonts that I fancy.

Be warned though that by replacing the PID you will void the warranty.😊

i think so u right aminoacid......

my phone is chinese version......

how to change firmware of my phone?

and how to do that ?

give me some info. pls. so i can try it....

thx!:redface:
