C500 Cleartype installation and Full phone decert

[Guest zerosignull]

Not to sure if its been pointed out before but you can fully decert you phone using the orange developer site that you use to decert your spv/e100/e200 (http://developer.orangews.com/orgspv/comdef.aspx). This site does not mention anything about working on the c500 but it does. I was using the 4.2.1.1 rom

1. decert you phone (http://developer.orangews.com/orgspv/comdef.aspx)

2. download the cleartype cab from this thread (http://www.modaco.com/index.php?showtopic=96691)

3. copy the cab to the phone.

4. use s program like smart explorer to execute the cab from the phone

5. wait

6. should say installation successful. If it says the the program did not have enough permision to install then you phone isnt fully decert.

7. reboot your phone

8. enjoy

ClearType™ is Microsoft's subpixel rendering display technology designed to leverage the phase carrier created by the misalignment of the red, green, and blue planes of some computer display devices to draw the lines and curves of text and graphics to sub-pixel accuracy.The Apple II family had used a very similar technique with the NTSC television system's color subcarrier two decades earlier.

basically it smooth's out the fonts on the phone to stop the outlines looking rough.

That attachment shows my start menu. if you look at the text you will notice the lack of rough lookingness of them. The fonts do look better on the phone when its running then in the attachment.
