Rom Toolbox Pro - Fonts

Recently I've been having fun changing the fonts on my phone. With all the fonts I'm able to change in the list, I can't change them all. I mean, I can but when I do and reboot it gets stuck in a bootloop. I've only successfully changed the clock font and pretty much any font that isn't bold or italicized. Although I would like to change some more fonts other than just normal-style fonts. Does anyone know which fonts for sure can't be changed? If not, I'll even go through them one at a time to compile a list of unchangeable fonts.
Or could it be the font I'm choosing just won't take to the font I'm trying to replace?
Okay, it seems they all will change, but to do it safely I have to change some of the separately.

I faced the same problem but how to solve the bootloop if I face it??
I had to flash a new ROM and lost everything. If you made your list it would also be of great help.

SOME fonts from rom toolbox are for GB and below only. that's why you'll get bootloops.
try finding fonts for ICS/JB in the main Android Developement forum then go to themes section. if you get a bootloop and don't have a backup or something
or you could try THIS out

Custom font not all applied - 'font installer'

hi all,
using 'font installer' app , we can change our android font. But in ion , not all are change. Messaging , phone/contact, statusbar & settings are not using the font we choose. still default font. anyone know why is it happen like that ?
my rom are deodex & rooted.

[SOLVED] why can't I use themes?

I have tried numerous jb roms based off cm10 and every time I try to apply themes thru the supposed built in theme engine, I get the "this theme was not compiled properly" so I do the whole process of apply system, reboot, apply theme (which then again gives the error) and reboot again anyway and still nothing. I've tried alien Droid, the sgt7 and Hellfire roms so far but none of them allow me to theme. Any ideas?

I'm in the same boat

Are you installing KF specific themes, like this one? I know a lot of the themes out there are made for the phone UI, but I'm not sure how they would be affected using JB in phone UI. I'm pretty sure it has a lot to do with the LCD density, though.
Back when the theme switcher was first introduced, I believe the way around that was to change the LCD density to a phone's LCD density, apply the theme and change it back.

I hadn't thought of that. I've always just used a theme this way. Ill give that a try.

You need to chance the DPI from 160 to 140
here is a zip file(page 96 on twa_priv cm10 rom) you can flash before you add the theme it chance the DPi to 140
after add the theme you flash the same zipfile again an it chance the DPi to 160
read this you can find it in the cm10 rom of twa_priv on page 96.
i used it with the theme gobalt from the playstore an it workt perfect.
I finally got the DPI to change. To make it easier for anyone else that wants to install a theme i modified the Toggle zip that twa_priv made so that it will toggle DPI from 160 to 140 and back. so just flash in recovery and then install the theme you want then flash it again to restore it back

Question Font change on OOS 11?

How have you guys been changing system fonts on OxygenOS 11 across the device? I tried using the CFI magisk module and only notification titles and the status bar seem to have changed fonts, and nothing else. Thanks

My Magisk module could change all of them.

Please note you have to choose "Roboto" at Settings -> Customization -> Font.
Also OnePlus uses special colon "U+A789" for lock screen clock, so you may get square character if your font doesn't have it.

Try this. It works well and also have themed my emojis allowing me to get my good ol handgun back. https://www.androidacy.com/font-manager-is-out-in-beta/

^like that handgun emoji better than mine

Oh man thank you so much. Was going crazy trying to find a fix for this. Put the colon in the A789 spot of the font file in FontForge and it is fixed now!!

How have you done that? I have a source that gives me problems in the two points of the clock.

I am not responsible for your device. You must be rooted. So far as I'm aware, the Google Sans font is new for the 8.1.0 preview, or at least it being used for the colon in the lockscreen is new. Due to this, the old lockscreen-clock font fix...

There's a guide somewhere in there that shows you how to add the colon in the appropriate spot using an app called FontForge. Old thread but still works.

He managed to change the colon, but the clock font I can't change it. Have you been able to do that?

Can you elaborate on which files do we need to modify for the clock colon? There's a magisk font mod I like that contains like 30+ ttf files, I changed the roboto-regular.ttf, flashed it and the problem remains. Btw ur font mod is pretty good for Chinese user too!

You'll need FontForge (I'm using CLI version, but Windows GUI version is OK too).

The post shows how to fix U+EE01, so do the same for U+A789 after that.

I did try for both glyphs for the Roboto-Regular.ttf file, flashed it and it doesn't work. So I was asking which files do I need to change. Keep in mind I was trying to get another magisk font mod working with the colon.

You have to mod all weights (light, bold...) since SystemUI uses different weight for the clock.
If there is no other weight, maybe you have to add them by yourself to the module.
