Switch Back to Anti-Aliased Fonts on US N95

One for the US readers here, as Mark over on the Nokia Blog talks users of the US N95-8GB through the process of turning back on the anti-aliasing after a firmware upgrade. All nicely practically, but you have to wonder why it was turned off in the first place . I expect it'll be turned back on with a few tweaks (perhaps it's just a missing line in a .ini file?) but in the meantime, the instructions are here.

Read on in the full article.

i own a 5700, n its update wasnt available in any region other than HK when i wanted to update to 4.21
so i changed my product code to HK from india
n i experienced the same NO anti-aliasing problem in the HK firmware
but this thing further screwed it up by over-enlarging the fonts

v4.21 (indian firmware - some1 else's phone) - User posted image

v4.21 (HK firmware - no anti aliasing) - User posted image

v.21 (HK firmware - after installing font router) - User posted image

anyway thanx for this tip

but i do know a temporary workaround for 5700 owners who have anti-aliasing turned off

if we run LCG slick (freeware), then sign into to an account n then go to configurations and then turn on the system fonts and then turn them off again..........its solves the problem, but only till the next reboot.

Actually, it's a new advantage over the iPhone! iPhone has only antialiased fonts! You can't turn it on/off. How useful it is! 😊
