Open up a text message. Now do a pinch to zoom gesture. The fonts will get bigger or smaller (depending on which way you pinch). It will now stay that way and take effect for all messages. Anyone ever found this before on a Sense device? I have had several and this is the first time I have seen it.

HTC would never go without Sense on any Android build. The only time that has ever happened to my knowledge is the G1 and that was before Sense.

If you have the text file set you 'largest' it won't get any bigger than that. It will get smaller. Largest is just that, the large end of the size range.

G2 was also Vanilla Android.

It was almost vanilla Android. Almost.

Anway, good find, I'm sure a lot of people would be turned on to the Vivid for something like this, especially with the price drop from AT&T. Anyone that bought one within the last 30 days should go back and ask for price protection!
