Thanks bro, very nice of you to say

What is the version of the WAD2 ?
Because i download the WAD2 from the offical web site and installed it. I change the theme but apprear a black screen(i already checked the location of the folder is correct).
Does your theme only suitable for one version ? please help !

I use a chinese rom. and i make the path storage card in the root of internal memory. It can launch the themes. but another problem is when i touch the icons , most of them appear "path error" can you help me to solve it.
thanks

hope you don't mind but I will be downloading and disecting to see how it works, as I'm still in the design phase for my very first theme (and I don't have an artistic bone in my body so it's taking some time)

Version doesnt matter. I am on the newest version. Your folder path is incorrect. Post your exact paths so I can see where you are putting things

OK, I know what wrong. It is because most of your link is written by english .So it can not be linked in a Chinese rom. I change the link with all icons. Now it works . Thanks Mallman.

theme updated
removed the status text for email, sms, voicemail and made the icons turn from grey to red when a new message arrives.
added additional buttons in the contacts page
Added a weather page when you tap the weather on the front page

I have the same problem, I have the Dutch version.
My exact path:
Computer\Touch HD\Opslagkaart\Wad_Icons\MALLMAN\Touch_Of_Red

exactly that will not work.
You need ot make a folder on your internal sotrage called "Storage Card" because your microsd card is not named storage card, it is named Opslagkaart
Once you do that then make WAD_Icons in the storage card folder. Then male MALLMAN in the WAD_Icons folder then Make Touch_Of_Red in the MALLMAN folder so you end up with
\storage card\WAD_Icons\MALLMAN\Touch_Of_Red\

However: I would also like to change screens by sliding, like TouchFlo and others have...
Is there a possibility to script such a thing?

[Q] Zooper widget fonts

How to install a new font (Android-Dev-Icons) in order to get it visible while using Zooper Widget Pro ?

Copy the font either to /sdcard/fonts or /sdcard/ZooperWidget/Fonts and it should show up in Zooper

Many thanks for your help, it works fine.

I don't want to open a new thread for this small question:
In what file format does the font have to be?
I got an .dfont file but it won't show up...

As fas as I know .ttf and .otf are supported. Here is a link to a tool that should be able to convert your .dfont to a usable .ttf: http://peter.upfold.org.uk/projects/dfontsplitter

Problem with fonts
Hi I'm trying to load two new fonts on zooper widget pro and I've tried putting them in both the file paths above but they won't show up. I have previously loaded the same fonts on a different device but my new phone (oneplus one) won't load them.
Any help much appreciated.

This isn't the same as the issue I'm having but similar in nature.
I put a font file (ttf) in Zoopers font folder, even recycled the phone. The font shows in the list but does not show the characters. It's almost as if the character map is broken.

[Q] Font pack change

Hi,
My question is related to P7, but there is no P7 thread so far, so I'm trying to get answer here.
My P7 model (P7-L00) is for Chinese market but I use it in Europe. Generally I have no problem with the phone, the ROM is multilanguage, and I could install the important Google apps too.
Only one thing is annoying: the stock Email app shows the sender's name with bigger, bold letters, but the font used for that contains some Chinese caracters instead of the accented European ones. Like this:
Erika Kov醕s (instead of Erika Kovács). The rest of the email text is OK, comes only with Latin letters.
I guess I should change the font pack in order to eliminate the Chinese letters. I tried it in the Themes/Customize sub-menu, but every theme has only one font pack: the default.
What can I do?

Up!
Nobody has an idea?
Or at least can someone suggest me for download an Emotion UI theme that comes with font pack? Installing that font pack might resolve my problem (althought I'm not sure -- but it's worth a try...)

You could try the following:
1. open the .hwt file using 7-zip
2. add folder called "fonts" and copy required fonts
3. copy the updated .hwt file in phone sd card under /HWThemes folder
4. try installing this theme.
Note: i have not tried it, you have to try this in your own risk
feedback if it works without any issue

How to manually install custom font

Hello all...
I have a rooted M9 with ViperOne installed, recently upgraded from v4.3.0 to v6.2.0. I'm seeing a few minor but annoying bugs. One of which is the inability to download fonts from HTC. Whenever I go into the edit theme section in the personalization settings, I get a network error message. There are only four fonts available. One under HTC fonts and three under "other fonts".
With ViperOne 4.3.0 installed, I was able to set a custom font that worked perfectly. It's been at least six years so I can't remember how I came by this method, but on 4.3.0, I was able to paste a "com.htc.theme" folder in /data/media/0/Android/data/com.htc.launcher/files/LocalTheme/. I only know this because I have a copy of this folder and a text file with instructions on what to do with it saved on my SD card. I tried doing that on this version of ViperOne and even after a reboot, nothing changes and the font is not a visible option in theme editing.
I've been searching for a solution for the last few days and nothing that I have found works. I've read in more than one post that there is a way to flash fonts from recovery but any links to files or instructions have been broken or they don't match my file structure.
I'd be grateful for any tips or suggestions. Thank you.

If you have root access, You can easy get into /root/system/fonts and can change any font with ROBOTO ones. Remember to change that font name to Roboto-Regular and all other Roboto font family. This should work.
Hope it helps!

Greetings ai.Sanaul...
Yeah, that works but it's very cumbersome. There's at least eight variants of Roboto that I would need find equivalent .ttf versions of to duplicate. Finding a full font family like that without paying $100+ for it is very difficult. On ViperOne 4.3.0, the theme folder that I used only had one .ttf file and somehow, the system adapted it to the required style (ie: bold, italic, etc.) seamlessly across the board including third-party apps.
Thank you very much for your suggestion. I may end up doing that in the end but I was hoping for a method that's a little more plug-and-play.

{Mod edit: Quoted post has been deleted. Oswald Boelcke}
Unfortunately, this method does nothing. The fonts that show up in personalization must be must be kept in another directory because adding font files to system/fonts doesn't add them to the fonts menu.
There are 147 .ttf files in system/fonts, yet only three options are available in theme editing. See attached.

Ok... I figured it out... kinda.
I used root explorer to find the XinGothic font. It showed up in system/fonts but it was also found as an apk in system/app/Font_XinGothic. So, I created a new folder in the same format and placed the apk of my font there. I then rebooted and checked font settings and where XinGothic was before now says "HTC Theme Font". I selected that and my custom font was applied. So far, it seems to be evenly implemented across the entire device.

That's a great program. I tried it many years ago and had a lot of fun with it, but not enough to justify the hefty price tag.
Small update...
After unpacking the apk from my theme, I was able to edit the XML so that instead of reading "HTC Theme Font" the display name matches the font name. Easy enough from a PC that I might just create my own collection.
