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.

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.
How do i fix this? I know text is there as i can touch an entry inverting the background color of the entry making the white text visible?
Suggestions?
I can't finds a setting snywhere to change font colors. Why would they design it white on white?

I am having this problem too after a factory reset (using a T-Mobile Note 4). Prior to factory reset, the font was black. I know I can use root explorer, etc but like the simplistic UI of My Files. If anyone know how to fix this, we appreciate it.
I fixed mine. Here's my situation - I rooted my and i changed my device DPI to something lower for my Note 4. The app, My Files, only like DPI 530 and above in Note 4. Once I used App Settings module from Xposed to tweak the per app dpi, it fixed itself. The font is now black again. Afain, anything below 530 will change the font to white in my case.
Dude you are awesome. Dpi to 530 and i can see again. Thankyou so much!
Hey all,
I have changed the phones DPI to 540 using the textdroider app. The phone now looks perfect and I believe it is how it should have looked out of the box, but I now have a slight issue.....or two.
The quick circle case is now useless. The clock is way off center. Is there a way to fix this? Can I change the DPI for that app only?
Also, when I reboot the phone, Gapps is FC'ing. Would this be due to the DPI aswell, or something else? It only started after the DPI change.
Thanks.
Just realised that there is another thread about this. Is there an update about this though? In that thread, users could change the clock back, but not the animation.
The font size in EMUI apps (eg Launcher, messaging etc) is narrower and smaller than the system font for regular Android apps (eg Gmail, Tapatalk)
I want to increase the size of the EMUI font to be the same as the regular apps. I tried increasing the font size in settings, but this also increases the font size across all apps.
How can I just change the EMUI theme font and size?
Is there a way to edit / customise the default EMUI themes? I tried the Huawei Theme Creator app from play Store but it appears you can only create a theme from scratch.
I'd also love to remove the app icon border masks too! Thanks

SMS font and bubbles too space wasteful
I agree! And also, is there a way how to PERMANENTLY decrease the size of the font and especially of the bubbles in the sms environment (for example in the same way as Telegram or Whatsapp show messages, i. e. very dense)? The bubbles are too big and the margins between sms text and bubble are too wide. I find it too space consuming, so very little messages fit into the screen. I mean, why would I have 5.2" screen phone if onle three of four messages fit in? I know I can pinch the screen to make it smaller, but this only last till I get out from the sms application. Is there any way how to fix this, please?
Someone help me remove these app border masks please!

You can't change the font, it's a lollipop bug

Does anyone know if it's fixed in Marshmallow?
Ie Can you change the size or choose an alternative font in EMUI

I'd like to know this too. The standard font (especially on sms) is too small and narrow. The style is also a little tedious. This is the only phone I've ever had that I can't change the font with. There has to be a way too do it, surely. Would rooting and a Font changer/installer app do the business? For all the nonsense that Samsung bring to the table at least you could easily change font's on their devices.
I managed to change the system font by creating a custom theme using a font within the 'ifont' app then dropping it into the emui hwthemes location and changing.
