are there any restictions on what font packs we can flash? I'm running AOSP illusionROM (CM-based) and I don't know if I am currently using it right now or not, but I love light fonts, specifically roboto. I was wondering if there was somewhere to get flashable font packs, or if we could even use them without messing up the phone?
Thanks

I just downloaded Ifont from the play store expecting it not to work but It totally did. I'm s-off unlocked rooted running a custom rom and it works but I would do a nandroid before just in case.
does that have roboto light?
Thanks for the suggestion!
No it doesn't.. But if you find the font you can import it into that app and then install it.

Up. I'd like to know too.
Despite many searches, I didn't find any mod working on JB rooted stock rom.
I just want reduced size for navbar, nothing else (buttons appareance, colors etc... are fine to me in stock state).
Thank you !
bump.
i have copied my framework res and system ui apks and extracted them. ive briefly looked over the xmls that were related to navbar but i honestly have no idea what to edit, or even if thats what needs to be done.
there are plenty of mods made for the rom i use (minco) but they all seem to be bundled with fastglow or the ics blue font for the date/time in the notification shade. i dont want either of those mods.
and bump again.
Go into the build.prop and change it that way no?

Just a suggestion, flash androidME and use the navbar mod. It's a custom Rom without any mod built-in. Meaning stock like.
You can also try aokp nightly, which has built in option to reduce navbar
I used the Font Installer on ROM toolbox to change the font on my GS3, but only some of the fonts changed. Could someone tell me why? Or tell me how I can apply the font to the entire phone?

Make sure you're on a deodexed ROM.
Most people with GS3 and ROM Toolbox eventually run into issues or boot loops down the road.
I wouldn't suggest using that app.

It's the MOAR ROM - I believe it's deodexed. Anyway, I just changed the font from the settings menu and it applied to the whole phone.
But what kind of issues do people run into?
You found a solution. If you aren't having any other issues and its working, I say stick with it and keep using what works.

Dear, all
Can someone post a guide/tutorial how to install custom font on our lovely LG Optimus G Pro? I don't want to use "push to system/font" method. . When i was using Galaxy S3 mini, i can create a custom .apk font (Flip Font) file via decompile/recompile other .apk font. But when i install those .apk font to OGP, the font doesn't show up on display setting.
So, please anybody can help? Thanks

Not sure if you're rooted or not, but have you tried RomToolbox? I use it to install my fonts, and it works great. The only time I haven't seen it work is when I try to install a "bold type" font. Other than that, it has worked for every font I have used.

It won't work on kit Kat. Rom tool box I mean. If you want some flashable fonts, there's a thread somewhere on here that I made. Either in general or Q&A. Someone posted a link and now I got hella fonts. I'd you're on 4.4x that is

I'm using KitKat.. Beanstalk 4.4 (latest one).. RomToolbox replaces the fonts on it.. I tried Carbon and a few other roms, and RoTB only replaced some of the fonts.. I rem the fonts you shared with me @Nigglenuts.. Those are great, and I'm sure the OP will find one he likes..

i tested this on my stock rooted g3 w/ twrp. it was the flashable roboto condensed font i created for my htc one m8 and it works fine, changes all the system font to roboto condensed. always nand just in case!
Thanks, the zip worked great! LG provided some truly awful typography choices.

I have a problem in replacing stock HTC fonts with some custom fonts using Root explorer. Let's suppose if I wanna replace a certain stock font Alpha with a custom font Beta, I'd simply rename and change that custom font Beta's name to Alpha and replace the stock Alpha with that using Root explorer. It does work for any other devices like Sony, Samsung, and Xiaomi. However, in HTC devices, it only works until I reboot my phone. After reboot, the stock font Alpha ,which supposed to be replaced with font Beta, reappear and the custom font Beta (which replaced Alpha before reboot) doesn't seem to exist there. I know I could easily change my font in Settings>Personalize>Font Style. But I'm just curious if there is any other ways to replace stock fonts with custom fonts? If you don't get my problem, feel free to ask me more. Thank you!
