Thumbs up Re: any apps or reg edits to make contacts names bigger?

<!--Text Size-->
<characteristic type="HKLM\ControlPanel\Stylus\192DPI">
<parm name="CurFont" datatype="integer" value="1000"/>
</characteristic>


toss that in your provisioning xml and that will make it 4/5 of big 1200 is 5/5 big. This can also be changed by going to;
settings>settings>screen>text size

This is the default font size so it will make it bigger in alot of places for your sweet old mum's eyes.
