Its the files in the photo I attached modern.sis tahoma.sis and along with it fontremover.sis. there are other fonts as well like set3v3 etc... seems to have changed the gdr file in the systems font directory.
seems like some program someone just did. i just dont know if its really legit. Please check.

I guess its OK to post it.If someone has anything agains it,PM me and i'll remove it.Install this at your own risk.

I am very interested how these files ahave been created, more info when you post please 😊

there's nothing to dl

I hav found some .gdr Files
and found the following information

Put the GDR file into the \SYSTEM\FONTS\ directory (create it if necessary). You may have to do a soft reboot for the fonts to appear.

But it does not do anything.

NOTE: DO AT YOUR OWN RISK.

i c in that case i won't try it since i'm also using 7610. thx 😊

I just Put these files in "C" system and create folder font and put the file in that.
and reboot it
the fonts reamin the same.
I searched in Google for "Changing Fonts for Series 60" and ".gdr" files and found

I can't see anything wrong with this since I don't know of any commercial source for this.

Usual rules apply, if you're the author and want it removed let me know. Install at your own risk etc.

Here is the application through which u can change the font of the phone.
just use the following format

C/SYSTEM/Fonts(make folder) Paste the file in that and Reboot the phone.

Note: This U can do At your own risk.

I think the phone is a 7610 since vicky is also a moderator of the 7610 threads. 😉

Well Mac Fly
these screenshots are of Nokia7610 .BUt i have tried on 6600 too and u can even try on 3660 too( But make backup frist).
And abt the screen shots
I have take these screen shots of my phone from a application called Fx Exp.

its a freeware and u can slect the option of screen short "on" "off"
Other screen shots program are Sele Q, Psiloc Screen Capture

There are five sis files the fonts are also inculed and for removing it we just have to install the sis file with the name "fontremover"

I hope some pips would be able to come up with striking fonts, the ones included in the zip i uploaded looks similar, only the modern.gdr font looks different and not that great either. I hope this stirs some of you to make nice looking fonts. Begin...

I like this font and the way of istalling and removing is quite simple
here are the samples.

But the icons like dollar,pounds etc are not clear properly.

And thats the only one of its kind, the rest looks almost undistinguisly alike.

The frist 2 images are with tahoma font and the last 2 r with Set3 Font.
I don't understand which i put the files above (2files) why they are not working
and does any one having Comic Sans MS font.
