I've been using Handcent on my device for a while now and I love it. However, the font packs arent the best. Since my phone is rooted, is there any way of creating my own font packs?
I've tried searching the phone using Astro to where handcent stores the fonts but so far Ive found nothing. Any ideas?
Have you tried Font Changer app?

I've changed the system font on Galaxy S, and now I want to go back to default stock font, but I don't know how. I've changed the font using Absolute System app, and I'm running Rooted Froyo JPO. Does anyone know what's the name of the default font that comes with Samsung Galaxy S, have a download link or know how can I change back? I have tried factory reseting my phone but the default font is still rewritten.
I would really appreciate your help. Thanks.
Go to settings-display settings-font style (first option) and check default.
Hope that helps.
Arial? Just a guess.
I've got it. So the default font for the Galaxy S is DroidSans_Stock_Font, I've downloaded it and installed it using the same app I used to change the default font. Good thing to know, If you mess around with fonts that you can always restore it to the default.
Thanks everyone.
Hello,
When I send an email from the default exchange email client the received message on the recipient is Courier New.
My SGS is Froyo 2.2 JPO.
Is there any way to change this font type to Arial, 10 pt, and blue for sent items ?
Thanks.
font changer from the market .

Chose the thinnest & most different one, Samoled screens have a burning problem.
Thanks for information on both of you.
Works fine now.

Usually when I root my phone, I download Absolute System and use it to change the font, it seems that it won't change the font on my rooted CDMA Galaxy Nexus... Anyone have an idea?
P.S. The only font I've seen affected by Absolute System on my Nexus is the Facebook app font for whatever reason.
No ROMs
Just unlocked and rooted
ROM Toolbox will let you change the fonts and many many things besides. I have tested this on SGN running 4.02

Thanks ROM toolbox is one of the best apps I've ever seen!
I used rom toolbox to change my font and it works just fine, but it doesn't change the bold text. I then went into preferences and checked for it to replace Roboto-bold.tff and when I reboot, it gets stuck on the boot animation. Anyone else experiencing this?
I would also like to get more info on getting font packs to work completley with ICS as the fonts in rom toolbox do not support bold or italic
You can easily change fonts... just replace the FOUR Roboto font variants in /system/fonts with yours... set permissions to rw-r--r--.

Font packs before ICS won't work well, I think. They only had normal and bold, while ICS also has italic and bold italic.

YES!
I tried twice, once with Font Installer app, got stuck. Then, I tried manually by just replacing the files with Root Explorer, got stuck again on boot animation.
Did you manage to work this out?

Never mind. Found a solution, metadata is the issue here.

Go to System Settings >> Display. There wou will find the option to change your font type and font size.
nope there is only style option three of them not a size option
Download fronts packs from play store and apply any small front tht sud do the work for uh...
Or if you are rooted... Then use rom tool box... From play store it has lots of fronts small big as uh want...

Also you can install "font changer" and change any font you want. instead of installing a complete font pack, it can change fonts seperately. and it lets you use your normal ttf fonts from your computer.
I also want to change font size not font style. Tried big font but always restart my foreground app when turning my phone.

To use themes you'll need to install a 3rd party launcher, such as go launcher, adw, or nova, etc. Thee are many lunchers to choose from and they give you much more customizability over stock/default launcher.

try SpareParts app see if it works on ics, or flash CM9 rom samsung removed the "font size" feature from ics
If your phone is rooted, you can try to change the DPI with an app like DPI Changer.
(DPI Custom : 212 is great)
Hi,
I am trying to install some new fonts to my HOX. Everywhere I saw that one needs to root the phone to do this. Then I saw this app Fontomizer for galaxy phones, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.hongik.fontomizerSP , which says it can install fonts if flip font library is installed. Could you guys tell me what exactly is this flip font library? I tried installing some fonts via the app but its not working.
I've changed the font from the default LG font to Roboto, which worked fine everywhere except in Chrome, where the font is still the default one. Has anyone else seen this, and also is there a way to get Chrome to display text in Roboto? Thanks in advance.
