I'm so confused! LOL Yay you for hanging in there... that's how we learn.

I think it should be way easier. If you have reinstalled the cab, then I suggest you do the following:

Go to Settings/Remove Programs and remove the Kliptik font. If it says it can't completely remove it, choose to keep it in the programs list, and soft reset. Do not physically delete any files. Now, try to reinstall the same cab file. You should get a message saying that it must first remove the previous version, blah, blah... let it. Then soft reset and check to see if that fixes the problem. Sometimes, when a cab won't uninstall, reinstalling it over itself will remove the last traces of it.

Don't manually delete the files, I think that will just wreak havoc. I had a similar problem, which is what led me to modify the weather manila from my own ROM. The fonts themselves are not the problem... it's the manila file packaged with these fonts that is causing your problem, IMHO. When it happened to me, I was almost in tears with the prospect of having to hard reset... so I understand your frustration.

I think the best advice I've ever read, and I don't remember where I read it... someone's sig, I think, went something like this: If it doesn't work the first time, keep trying because it's a Windows Mobile device and eventually it will work. Just keep trying to uninstall it and soft resetting until it's back to normal.

I think that the font files should be cabbed by themselves. The way the font displays in the weather tab should be addressed seperately, since that manila file isn't going to be the same for everyone.

Let me know which font you really want. I will be happy to cab it up for you without the weather file (with Kliptik's permission, of course). Then, if the weather tab is not displaying the current temp properly, you can upload the weather file that is working on your device and I will modify your file to display properly. Being a girl, I understand the importance of accesorizing.
