I'm trying to install the Nokia SANS font my galaxy s2
ive downloaded font changer, and copied the font into the relevant folder
i can see the font but when I select it and reboot it fails to change
where can i copy this font for it to appear in
display, screen display fonts so I can try it that way?
Any other suggestions?
The font I have is a single file with the file format .ttf
Just extract the fonts, save it to your sdcard, and replace the one in the system/fonts using rooxplorer. Then reboot Make sure the "default" font is checked.

thank you, I downloaded it, too many files along with ttf file, what to do?
if you use the "font changer" app, there will be a folder in your sdcard named ".fontchanger", you just put the 2 files there(e.g. Zegoe.ttf and Zegoe-Bold.ttf), then once you open the actual fontchanger app it will be there as one of the choices, just click it then apply and reboot
alternatively, you can just use root explorer to overwrite the 2 files in /system/fonts:
- first, rename your desired font to DroidSans.ttf(for regular) and DroidSans-Bold.ttf(for the bold)
- put the 2 files in system/fonts overwriting the original files then set permissions to rw-r-r then reboot
*those two files are all you need, the normal and the bold .ttf

As the title suggests, how do i copy a font to the system folder ??

Real situation:
I like waltograph but cannot find any in xda, so I may one by my own.
1. I download font here: http://www.dafont.com/walt-disney.font
2. Then unzip the file, I get waltograph42.otf and waltographUI.ttf.
3. you just click on it and and find waltograph42.otf represent the regular font, while waltographUI.ttf represents the bold font.
4. Convert waltograph42.otf to ttf by http://www.freefontconverter.com/
5. Make 3 copies of waltograph42.ttf and name them DroidSans.ttf, RobotoCondensed-Regular.ttf, Roboto-Regular.ttf
6. make 3 copies of waltographUI.ttf and name them DroidSans-Bold.ttf, RobotoCondensed-Bold.ttf, Roboto-Bold.ttf
7. connect the phone to pc and place all 6 files into your sdcard
8. move them into /system/fonts
9. reboot
10. enjoy

Thank you very much for writing this up. I will give it a try!
I used to install fonts on the go with Rom Toolbox but on the One only 1 font over 5 is working,many of them will freeze the phone on boot.
Dunno if someone has found an app 100% compatible yet
Will try this evening, thanks

Well for most font apps. It can fully apply on samsung only. For other phone, we need to use carefully as it may cause boot loop.
And now for the One, there are some font apps too, but it still cannot help to change all your font in the system. You can try, but I recommend you to use the method above.
Font apps recommend: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kapp.ifont
Note, it can only change some system font only, not all..... e.g. you can see your installed font in some apps, while in homepage, you will see the stock font
I found a good solution,I downloaded a font resize app because all that matters for me is bigger fonts,I have a short vision weakness
I have the problem of fonts restoring to it's original fonts after reboot.
Someone said to flash custom kernel with rw capabilites change (or) delete certain .ko files under /system/modules.
I can't find how to do both and any ideas please?
Thanks in advance.
So I posted the ttf file in the system/fonts folder, changed permissions, and can not get it to see my font under themes-edit theme-fonts. Help?
