NEWBIE Question (YES I DID A SEARCH FIRST!) - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is it possible to change the outgoing font for emails? I send a lot of email for work & sometimes need to get a point across or highlight information. I'd like to be able to change the sent font on my EVO.
Does anybody know if this is possible? I've scoured the settings menu and haven't found anything...maybe I wasn't looking hard enough?
I have Search throughout this forum and nothing.
Thanks in advance.

Nope, using the HTC app it looks like you can only change the font size.

is there an app that might let me do this? (bold text, Underline, Etc...

[Q] Change default (blank) contact photo

Does anyone know how to change the default contact/caller ID photo for the Galaxy Nexus? I hate the new weird face they have. I'm talking about the image that is present when the contact doesn't have a picture assigned. It also shows up on the Caller ID for anyone that's not in your phonebook, or in the phonebook without a pic.
I'd prefer the little android robot.
Any ideas? Help would be much appreciated.
i think theres a thread in the theme section that has images metamorph zips
i forget what its called but try typing in something like "andy's back contact picture"
good luck
The image is in Contacts.apk. You can just replace it with what you want.

where would I find contacts.apk? Also can I change the default picture without screwing up my phone?

Stock vs aftermarket keyboard

I recently tried Swiftkey 3 in order to see if the keyboard allowed the user to see the actual Emoticon when you want to send one in a text. Just as in the stock keyboard, all you actually see is the characters that are used, not the actual smiley. I would like to use some but dont have all the smileys memorized as to what the emoticon actually is and the only way to know is to send the text and see it when its too late. I sent my buddy a kiss yesterday lol. Is there an app or any way to actually see which smiley I choose. I will say the Swiftkey 3 keyboard is just excellent at its predictive typing. I barely spell anything correctly and punch in whatever is close and it turns out perfectly. The stock keyboard changed it to sentences I couldnt even make sense of. Thanks pete
I haven't used anything that allows you to see them. You just learn as you go. You can always text your own number the emoticons though.

I don't think you'll get this from a keyboard, you might have to find a different SMS program that interprets the smiley keys as an actual smiley while you type. I's using GO SMS Pro, by default it doesn't have this function, but there might be an option to activate it. It's free, so you can install it and look for the option.
How does go sms differ from the stock messenger

Go, along with other third party apps, allows you to customize the look of your inbox via themes, assigning individual contacts a specific text tone, and other features are available as well. I know with Go, you can install the emoji plug in that iPhone uses, but only those with the plug in can see that kind of stuff.
On a side note, now that I think about it, Go has a button within the texting that allows you to see what the emoticons look like before choosing.
Edit: I just checked and the feature you are looking for is indeed available in GO SMS Pro. With the soft keyboard down, there is a smiley face button and it allows you to see what the emoticons look like before choosing. Hope that helps.

K trying it out but I have one issue with go. When you send a pic to someone who doesn't have go its a link to the picture instead of actual picture. Is there a workaround for that
Sent from my LT28at
How are you sending the photo because I haven't had an issue like that.
Sent from my LT28at
There are two ways to send a photo. If you click the soft button that says go and select image, that's when it sends a link to someone without go. If you were to select MMS at the far right instead of go, it sends an actual image via MMS.
Have you been using the go tab to send pictures?

Is anyone able to have a dark theme in the stock messenger? Black/grey background instead of white?
I used the mms photo but sent it to an iphone user. Sending to other androids is fine. Thanks for the suggestions. I am liking it so far much better than stock with a black and gray theme downloaded for free.

You can tell that iPhone person to just get an android phone and solve the problem
Well I'm stumped honestly. You could try emailing the devs
Sent from my LT28at
Not a big issue just wondering if non smartphone people will get a link or picture?

[Q] Default Browers Question

Hello everybody!!
I have a question about setting the default browser on my Galaxy S III, Im currently using Dolphin Browser and I know about the option in the settings to make it the default browser. But when I use the default "Web" Icon on the homescreen it still opens the Browser that came with the phone. I tried downloading apps that "change" the default apps used but still opens the wrong one... I had gotten this to work for my other S III and Galaxy Note before i had to return it due to a dead pixel but ive had no luck in getting it working again... if anybody knows anything on how to get this set correctly i would greatly apprecaite it!!
Thanks in advanced!!

Tried Settings, App Maanger, All, Internet, Clear Defaults?
Yes I have tested that, but when I go to the Internet app it says that their is no default app set

Oh, wait. I think I misunderstood your question. You want the globe icon that says internet to open Dolphin? Not sure if that is very feasible.
That icon is like an icon on your computer (I.e. it is not a shortcut). That icon is specifically for the stock internet app.
But, it's probably possible. I would start a new thread about how to change icons of apps. I use Nova Launcher and I can rename icons, but not change the picture. But, I'm sure someone more knowledgeable than me know how.
It is possible I've done it before but I am not able to recall how I did it lol

Oh.
Well, if you don't figure it out, I found this today: http://android.appstorm.net/how-to/...guide-to-customizing-your-home-screen-icons/

Need better sms app

Good morning. So I've been jumping from sms app to app for some time and can't quite fill all my needs. Looking for suggestions.
Need to have custom ringtones per contact
Need to display animated emoticons (wife loves to send these... For good or bad) plus she's got an IPhone... Needs to be compatible.
Needs to not hide the keyboard when adding attachments (textra has this weird bug that doesn't allow me to see the additions page when clicking the add button)
Would like it to be somewhat customizeable.... But that's not a requirement.
Must have a way to not have adds. Via upgrade or Pro version.
So far I've tried Go (no animations)
Textra (keyboard problem)
Ninja (no animation)
Hello (no animation)
Hangouts (the sms is just funky) I haven't seen it be very individually customizable for contacts yet... But the current leader)
I've tried Handcent sliding and their new one as well... Mostly all lack the animated emoticons
Anyone have a suggestion?
And yes... Must be sms,
Thanks!
