Any of the fonts should work with eb13. A font is a font.

Yep, as the person above said, fonts are just fonts.
If you want to manually change your fonts, name whichever TTF fonts you want to use as DroidSans.ttf and DroidSans-Bold.ttf and copy (using either adb push or Root Explorer) to /system/fonts on your phone. Reboot, and that should do the trick.
If you're looking for flashable font packages, look here:

There is also an app from the market for free, called "custom font switcher" . I have used it on dk28(froyo) and works great, there are 109 fonts that I see.

This put me into a boot loop when I changed the font.

[Help] Where's the font folder?

I looked around but not able to find my answer....
I see the font folder in /system/fonts but I don't think it's the correct one. How do I add font styles to show up directly under "display>screen display>font style"
Is there a way to just extract fonts lets say from another rom and copy and paste?
Thanks in advance
EDIT: I found font switcher in the market that seems to work pretty well. But still would like to know where the fonts are hiding...

The app is called FlipFonts. Here's a thread that has a good many fonts you can install just like any app.

Request: Manually add fonts to JB

I was wondering if anyone knew how to manually add fonts to the galaxy S3 jellybean tw rom. By manually I mean using root explorer and putting files in a particular folder if that can be done. I don't want to buy a font app that just does a transfer I can do myself. Please and thank you

You can, you would just need to put the correct file in the systems font folder.

The fonts in that folder don't appear in the touchwiz font selection screen under display settings->font

I see then; well honestly, you're better off just downloading an app to do it; as you're have to change everything in the system ui to that new ont. There are TONS of free root font changer apps. Have a go at them.

I would like to learn the areas of the ui I can edit to get that effect. I'm on XDA to learn anyway. I just finished a semester of C++ in my pursuit of an electrical engineering degree so I'm more interested in the journey than the effect anyway

You can install fonts manually in the system/fonts folder but it takes time... you need to find a font that has all the different font "states" (light, bold, italic, condensed/ all combinations of these) and should be in .ttf format
So here's what you need to do:
1.Make a nandroid !FIRST!
2.Download your font
3.Use a root browser and find system/fonts
4.Locate the main fonts the system uses (ICS&JB use roboto)
5.Write down all the font state names that begin with roboto (ie roboto-italic)
6.Rename the font states from your downloaded font to the corresponding roboto font states (font-italic to roboto-italic)
7.Paste all renamed font states in system/fonts
8.Set permissions for each pasted font state
9.Boot into recovery and wipe cache/dalvik & set permissions
10.Reboot and enjoy!

Just Google search for flip fonts. There are tons of free ones on the internet. They install like apks.

Font Questions

Hey guys.
This may be a stupid question but I've been trying to search online for solution but just cant fix it.
When I want to change system fonts, I just go to settings/display/font style on my Note 2. And there are hundreds of fonts I can see from the selections. But when I am doing some custom widgets using UCCW or Zooper Widget, I dont see all the fonts that I usually see in settings/display.
Some apps require fonts to be saved in /systems/fonts and some in sdcard/fonts so I just saved my font folder on both path.
How can I make the apps (UCCW or Zooper) to be able to find and use the same fonts I can usually see from the Settings of the phone? Thanks.

No one?

Id say ask the developers of those apps to help u out with that one.

I think I messed up the question.
I have a lot of fonts in the settings, display option of the phone like example tahoma, Arial, etc but they are not in the fonts folder.
Most of the fonts in the fonts folder are from roboto, droid and Samsung series. In what folders are those other fonts located?
I can put fonts on those apps if I download the font I want one by one and save them to fonts folder so I think the app isn't the problem. But since I have other fonts i want from the phone settings, I wonder where I can just get the ttf files inside the phone itself.

[Q] Any way to put a custom font onto phone?

I've got a .tff file that I used to make a widget with through uccw and I'd like to apply it as a system wide font. Is there any way to do this?
I'm not rooted currently and I'd rather not I was just wondering if there was any way to place the .tff file into like a font app?

Before you can do anything like that you MUST be rooted.
Good luck!

Actually, not true. My phone is not rooted and I can customize fonts, with the "Font Switcher" app and using the FlipFont packs. You can also customize the size of the fonts more accurately with the "BigFont Pro" app as well.
