I used to have the font packs from Gianton. He said that it is not possible to change fonts in Pixel XLwithout huge modifications. Is this still true?
No it's not true.
I've changed my fonts using Substratum.
It doesn't even need a reboot to switch fonts.
Attached is a screenshot showing my new font.
The font of gboard changed as well. That's global.

Either that or an OMS(?) compatible ROM.
Pure Nexus or Dirty Unicorns to name a few.

Yes, I am aware of Sub, it does not change ALL of the fonts in the phone. Unless I'm the lucky one..

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'm currently running on Omega v20 based on 4.3 ML3. And I also installed Tamirda's Note 3 Mod v3.5 and everything is good.
Just need some help/advise on how to make the fonts smaller in the stock messaging app. On converstaions list, fonts are good (In my settings they are set to Tiny), but when I open a conversation, they get really big, If you compare it to the font sizes in settings, its maybe Large. I just want to lower font size in conversations.
Any advice?

Install Xposed Installer, go to Download, search for AppSettings, change DPI and Font Scale. Profit.

Will try this now. But won't that also make my conversation list smaller?
UPDATE: Anyway, followed what you said and its good enough. Thanks!
Anyone know of a true black/dark theme for the pixel Launcher. Not talking about a theme for the whole phone, asking specifically about the swipe up all apps page, Google bar and app folders on the home screen. Even on phones that support substratum like the 6p I can't seem to find a single theme that makes the Pixel Launcher have an all black back ground with white text. I have no idea why Google is so scared of the dark.. just got the OnePlus 3T... Supports black background everywhere by default. Just turn it on... Anyways, rant here if you feel the frustration.

How do you get the black Google search button?
That's part of the theme. You don't have to use the whole theme. Just the overlays for Google app and pixel launcher.

Amazing! That must have been a recent update. I already have the Black Stock theme on my phone.. is that on a pixel or another device with the pixel launcher?
Edit: just applied to my pixel XL... Amazing.. it works

Some of it works. You can install the whole theme expect the framework stuff.
Biohazard works good for system ui
The substratum app in the play store says it doesn't work with the pixels yet. Is that what you're using or something else?

Oh shoot. Just saw that this is a root app. ?
How do you apply a theme on pixel XL or what app do I need? I am rooted and bootloader unlocked with TWRP. Thanks in advance!
Does this also theme the Google page when you swipe to the right? First page with content from Google?
This theme looks and works great.

Is there any free substratum theme for Black/Dark Pixel launcher?
I have oneplus3 and freedom Os 2.4 installed. I changed the font using Ifont. Can anyone tell me some app to adjust the font on lock screen. Badly needed.

I had same issue, just keep trying different fonts till u find one that works.
So i have moved to RR ROM. And problem solved.
what is the default font on pixel 3xl?
Product Sans is used in some places, Roboto in others, I believe. Most headers/titles are Product Sans while subtext is Roboto (I think).
Example: In the settings menu the title of each settings item is Product Sans while the descriptions are not.
