I recently installed the Firefly Rom onto my Captivate(super sweet rom BTW) and went a little crazy adding fonts and it would let me get to the font selection screen until I removed some every time I tried to access the font menu it just force closed? Just curious thats all.
I had a Helvetica font that was causing the font menu to FC, that might have been the problem. I got it from the font thread in the Themes and Apps forum.

Same thing happened with me. Remove the helvetica font and all should be well.
This is my captivate. There are many like it buy this one is mine.

Ok so what I'd like to do is take fonts from some of the free font packs available from the market, and use them as fonts in Beautiful Widgets.
I've installed them, but BW doesn't see them.
So, I'm assuming what I'll have to do is pull the font packs in adb, and push them back somewhere else. I don't know what directory they need to be in, though.
I could also be completely wrong and not know what the hell I'm talking about. Any advice would be great. Thanks.
Also, if anyone can tell me how to go about changing the system font, that would be helpful.
Edit: Ok figured this out. Still don't know how to get beautiful widgets to recognize fonts...
Ok. I'm an idiot. I forgot the BW settings only allow you to change the CLOCK font. The date font is changed by changing the system font which I've already got covered. Der. Mods you can delete this whole thread if you like.
I'm on JellyBeans Build 15 and I really like this build so far. Though one thing I want to know is how to change the font on the lockscreen from touchwiz font to the font on the 4.2 lockscreen. I've tried looking the font file though I close as I believe I've gotten is the Clocktopia file.
Can anyone help?
(Sorry for the noobiness)
Just wondering on the s8+ when u have a theme applied from the theme store which has changed the clock has anyone had any luck changing the wallpaper? Every time I change the lockscreen wallpaper when I have a theme applied it changes the clock back to the standard boring white one. Any ideas people

I've noticed that too and don't think there's a way to fix it either.

Glad someone else has noticed it. I spoke to echo visuals from the theme store and they don't think it happens so I have tried removing all mods and even unrooted but no dice

I'm not rooted but I'm using various layers and parts and pieces of several substratum themes. I've removed all the layers and substratum and when changing walls I still get the Samsung lock screen clock. It's very frustrating too.
Hi guys, I've been trying to change font, I've used a lot of app, but not all fonts of OS are changing, but all app are putting a square instead the colon in the clock of blocked screen.
Have you been able to change fonts at all?

You can change fonts to most anything but the lock screen is different. Just leave it stock.
Here is a googlesans font.
I've found that in the Fontfix app, you can select the font to change, so to change the lockscreen font you just need to replace GoogleSans-Regular with your custom font, all good
There are others fonts to replace on the system, I'll be playing with the app to see what fits my requirements.
I like using the Default (Roboto) font but the Samsung font used for the Lockscreen and AOD clock is ugly and has inconsistent spacing. Changing the system font to any other option changes the clock style. When I use a font installer to install Roboto, it does change the clock, but creates an issue where font weight and spacing are incorrect in many apps. Yes, I also tried a variable font version as well. I realize that Samsung is likely using multiple font files to create Default and the font installer is limited. I also tried GoodLock with Clock Face but almost all centered options use the ugly Samsung font too.
Does anyone know how to change just the Lockscreen and AOD clock fonts? Back in the day, someone was able to modify Good Lock to give extra options but I'm hoping there is a simpler solution. Thanks in advance.
Hello. I have the exact same thoughts about the default One UI lockscreen font. Could you please share a bit more details on the Good Lock extra options?
Btw, I did try to install the system font with the Roboto TTF file like you mentioned in the OP and the lock screen looks much better now. I do get your point about "issue where font weight and spacing are incorrect in many apps", but fortunately for me, WhatsApp is the only app where I see this. And it does not look all that bad. So I believe I'm going to stick to this way.
Here's how:
Download 'SetEdit (Settings Database Edit)' from Google Play Store.
Open and find 'theme_font_clock' row, then tap it.
Tap 'Edit Value' and input with your font path addreses (*example: /storage/emulated/0/My Fonts/DS-DIGIB.TTF).
Tap 'Save Changes' and you're done!
Take a look!
*supports .ttf and .otf formats
works without root

Confirmed, does NOT work in OneUI 5.0. Was excited too.
I hope there will be another way...
