I know the themes app has don't changing option but it uses Huawei hwt files. I don't quite understand how they work. Before this I'd just use magisk module to switch my emojis to EmojiOne/Joy Pixels. But now I'm lost cause there aren't any EmojiOne/Joy Pixels theme made for Huawei that I can just download. Neither do I know how to make them myself. Neither do I have root or can root to use magisk modules.
Besides I found a really cool font. I noticed if I use iOS emojis, the font also gets switched. I wanna have Dubai font for Arabic, custom English font and EmojiOne/joy pixels emoji. Wonder if it's possible to mix and match like that
Whoops I screwed up, how do I move this to questions section?

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.

Is there a way to change the keyboard font only? Without changing the other fonts on the system. Without installing a keyboard app, skin or any other 3rd party services!
I'm running XTXperience8 on my Sony Xperia S which uses the stock Sony keyboard. I like the keyboard and how it works, I simply want the font changed. I don't like the fat ugly 'chunky' thick bold font that it uses and just want something nice and thin.
There is a new 4.1 keyboard that's been leaked, and I have tried it, but it made my device run slower. I don't understand how or why installing a keyboard would do that, but it did.
I tried an app called "Font Installer" which is a nifty little app that replaces the system fonts easily, but it doesn't affect the keyboard at all! It's really frustrating.
Thanks in advance for any help on this.
I guess you'd need to decompile the app, change the font and compile back, considering it has its own font on the apk, and don't use a system one.

I'd just try 4.2 keyboard from the play store, I really like it and it hasn't slowed down my device at all
It's great that there are OEMs like LG that provide this level of customization out of the box. The option that sounded the most interesting was the ability to change fonts without using root methods. The only problem I've found is that all the fonts one can download from SmartWorld are pretty hideous.
I know I can change the system font with several root apps, but this method is sketchy and was responsible for bricking one of my phones in the past. The SmartWorld fonts are installed as an APK if I'm not mistaken. My knowledge of how APKs are structured is fairly limited, but I was wondering if it would be possible to decompile one of the font APKs (if necessary. Again, not incredibly familiar with them), change the font file to a custom one, and install it on the G3 in a way that it would act like any other SmartWorld installed font and can be selected from the Settings > Display > Font type menu.
TL;DR is it possible to install a custom, non-SmartWorld font as if it were from SmartWorld and use it with the stock font changing settings? Thanks in advance.
I would love to know this as well.
UPDATE:
I used to use ifont on my GS4 but it wouldn't work on my LG G3. It used to cause boot loops but apparently they must have fixed and made it compatible and now it works flawlessly.
Please hit the thanks if I have helped you.
Me too having the same doubt. Since the SmartWorld fonts are working well, so the other fonts can also work with some customizations.. I hope any of the developers will come forward and do it..
Can someone upload a font apk from smart world? Trying to figure this out now.

Hello,
I've just updated my M8 to Android 6.0. What surprised me was keyboard. White and eye hurting. I would like to change it back to old, dark one. As I searched through, it is possible to do that by changing theme to Material Dark, but I cannot find that.
Another thing is.. emojis. Ugly Samsung ones. :\ How could I change it to old ones?
Thank you for suggestions!
emoji free font theme
it changes it to the ones like the iphone
also it changes the font
the font itself is kinda stock and just fine
but you get the whatsapp /apple emoji's witch is awesome
Hi there,
I'm using my g3 with stock marshmallow (but it was even was like that on lollipop), not rooted. I like it the way it is, but I've noticed, that using the default font manager does not change the fonts everywhere, like on other phones.
For example: I change the font in the settings and open whatsapp, then there's some mixture of fonts. Names and messages are displayed in the default font, but the message preview is in the new selected font.
Can somebody tell me if there's anything I can do about it, except rooting it?
I know how to root, but since it's my companys phone I would like to avoid it.
Thank you
