[APP] Font Changer 4.0.4 [29/09/12]

This app is no longer being updated and may cause issues on newer versions of Android. Use at your own risk!
Description
Font Changer allows you to change the font on your Android device. Some (most likely people from the HTC Desire forum section) may be familiar with an older version which required flashing an update, however these two versions don't require it (check the requirements section for more).
Basically you can put your TTF fonts in /sdcard/.fontchanger/ (location can be changed in the settings) and then you can apply a font once they have been found by the application (inside Font Changer there are more detailed instructions on how to do this). You can also set the fonts individually using the advanced mode. It works just by copying the selected font to the system partition and overwriting the current font. Backup is automatic, although occasionally it breaks resulting in the need to fix the fonts manually or with an update (usually the cause of messing with the fonts alongside with Font Changer).
Font Changer used to only have a paid version for the past few months, but with the new Market changes I have decided to add a free version. While most cancellations happen within a few minutes after purchase, not all do... and 15 minutes is just too short! Plus some people are not in a country where they are allowed to buy paid apps. Anyway, that's my reasoning.
The application should be removed from its settings to restore the default fonts and density. More information can be found on its Market page and inside the application.
Requirements
root
system write access (aka NAND unlock or S-OFF)
busybox
custom recovery (not a requirement per-se, but highly recommended in case something goes wrong)
Reviews
DroidDog
Coming Features
Fix up setting custom website for preview
Set dark/white theme
Rework UI for the font picker
Rework UI for the density changer
Need some icons for the Basic/Advanced tabs
Add more fonts to be replaced in Basic mode

OK, done. Although if your signature is correct and you have a GT540, Font Changer doesn't have support for it yet as I need some information to identify the device (the person with a GT540 who was helping me has gone somewhat quiet and I haven't managed to finish it without his input).

Lol. Allright. Good to know. "None support" does not mean "does not work for GT540", correct? I'll try it anyway so...

1. There are multiple rooting methods for the GT540, and some of them work with Font Changer and others don't. I'm afraid I don't have any specific information on this. If 1 works, then check out 2.
2. The GT540 uses different fonts than the default Android ones. I know which ones and already have the code in the application to make it work, however all I need is to identify the device for which I require someone with a GT540 willing to help.
Anyway, feel free to give it a try and see what will happen.

Tried right now, works well. Looks **** cause of fail font.
Some informations for you: Got 2.2.1 based on CyanogenMod, Recovery 2.5.0.5.
Yeah. Thank you!

OK, your one works because you have CM which uses default Android fonts
You're welcome.

Version 1.7.1.3 has been released, per-user request.
It is now possible to specify in the settings whether the regular font should be used to replace the clock, or whether the default clock font should be used. Some ROMs make use of the clock font, others don't, so the option may not have an effect for everyone.

Doesn't work for me on rooted GT540 with stock Android 2.1 update. I am willing to help with any testing.

I've ben using this app for a while (paid version) and it works very well.

Seems to work on the HTC Vision /G2/Desire Z. Thanks a lot! (Got the paid version to support development)

Hi there. It doesn't work as in when you set the font it does nothing?
If that's what happens then you could try running the app which I attached in this post and send the report which it generates by GMail, or any other method that works for you. I'm missing identification information for the GT540.

So it works fine on a Galaxy S sister device? When I tested a long time ago on my friend's Galaxy S it would cause freezes and didn't allow for the notification bar to be pulled down...

Thank you, I added those devices to the supported list. A little surprised that they all have full root since they only came out recently. On the Desire we had to wait for a while... >_<
And thanks to all those who bought from the Market to support development, it's greatly appreciated.

Very nice app. Thank you for developing it! Works perfect on HTC Desire
It seems that only ttf files are working, if anybody has a font which is otf for instance you can convert them here http://onlinefontconverter.com/
Hope op don't mind that i posted the link.
Thanks again

Just a second. You are giving me conflicting information. Did it say you don't have system write access OR root? Both will never be shown at the same time, I checked the code twice just now.
EDIT: Never mind, I was able to see that page. I'll get back to you soon hopefully.

it said it doesnt have write access. didnt say anything about root. sorry about that
EDIT: it said it didnt have full root. i must be tired, or something, lol.

thank u so much

pretty great, thanks man!

Hey,
Great looking app, can't wait to try it out.
Just installed it to my Desire HD (stock rom, 1.72 firmware) via adb and whenever I try to add the widget to my home screen, it tells me "no more room on this homescreen". This is with LauncherPRO.
On restart of my phone I also got a message saying that the process had crashed and had to force close. (app loads fine however, just not able to put the widget on)
Any suggestions?

I just tried it on my galaxy s it says no enough romm in this page in both launcher pro and touchwiz.
When i open the app it force close and keep doing the same.
I really want this watch but no luck.

There was no need to use adb! It's similar to stock but not same app. The widget will occupy the whole screen. Did you have another shortcuts on the screen when u tried?

Heh, only reason I used adb was because I downloaded the apk on my desktop, and my phone was plugged in but not mounted. I'm lazy like that XD
And yeah, I tried it on an empty home screen, so no other widgets on it.

It's me or there isn't a way to have it orange by now?
Thanks

Hey Adam, I've been toying around with the launcher pro settings, just found, your widget uses a 5x5 layout currently which may be why many people are having issues not being able to add this to a home screen since the default is 4x4.
Any chance of a 4x4 version?

[TOOL] SpareParts (Compcache and CPU settings working)

Hello All,
I am not de developer of this app, but I find it very usefull and wanted to share it. Its called SpareParts and people that have had previous android phones are probably familiar with it.
However, I never found it in any Xperia X10 rom, and everytime I tried to install one from the internet, it just wouldn't work, or didn't include some of the most interesting settings of this app.
Basically SpareParts is a system tweaker, and lets you change a variety of settings which makes it a very handy tool.
I recently found one which included Compcache and CPU settings that worked fine on my X10.
For those who don't know, enabling compcache allows android to compress RAM and results in overall better performance.
It also has working CPU settings (As you may know, most CPU control apps available are unreliable with the X10).
In my case, I used to have ramdom reboot problems , specially when I was heavy using the phone (ie, playing asphalt and streaming music at the same time) and after enabling compache with this app the issue went away.
Also, it allows you to lower the CPU speed without affecting the phone performance too much, so it definitively helps to save a lot of battery.
Anyone willing in to give it a try, here is the link, i suggest setting Swapines to 15 after enabling compache:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7864538/SpareParts-4.apk
The phone seems to be more smooth, but may be a placebo effect.
Please give it a try and share your results.
BTW I am using CM 6.1.1 ROM Tweaked and with extras with custom Sysctl settings posted in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=929448
PS.
You may also want to try changing the animation speed to fast (under original spareparts settings). The phone will feel a lot faster

Some of the settings will not work. Maybe a dev can mod the app and just leave the working settings. This version of the app was modded for another device.

I'm on wolfbreak's cm v 4.4 and this definitely made the phone.snappier...
I had to uninstall the original spare parts before installing this one or the compcache setting wouldn't stay after a reboot.
Thanks for this!

would not be fully functional since we are not allowed custom kernals

Sweet!
Thank you! This does have a lot more capabilities than the regular spare parts!!! Will tweek it and give feed back!!!
Best regards,
Chris

I see you are using 2.1 ROM. I am not sure if it will work in 2.1. I only tested it in 2.2. However, some of the settings are specific for the device this app was originally made for so they won't work for us (ie the status bar tweaks).

If you want to change the status bar options you can use CM settings.

New Market, 3.1.5 (09/22/2011), Works great on tablets

Just wanted to give everyone a heads up, the new market apk that was posted up yesterday, version 3.1.5, works awesome on the Transformer. No FC's, we can finally rate an app from the market, feels much more intuitive than stock market, and much smoother/better optimized for tablet than 3.1.3.
Check it out here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1272152

It doesn't give me the option to and I'm on a B70 later model so I have no root access.

The reason you're getting two is because they're different package names. If you're rooted, delete the original. If not, you're stuck with both... But hey, you've always got the option to delete the new one.

The app "Tablet Market" causes a FC And having two of them is less of a problem, but how can I set the new one as the default market and disable the old one (unrooted TF)?

"tablet market"? my version is missing the 'staff picks for tablets'. have I downloaded the wrong 3.1.5 version?
also, my icon was replaced by this update but the app remains on the system, so only one visible in apps.

Same here. My new market looks quite different

I feel the UI is actually a bit more cluttered than the stock market app. I have gotten a few FC on this one already.

Does anybody have the apk of the market that came with the Transformer?

The UI seems really cluttered with this. Maybe I'm just not used to it... but it does look like things are stretched/not placed correctly, you can clearly see this on the My Apps screenshot. I don't think this is 100% optimized for tablets and I hope this is the reason why it hasn't been officially pushed to our devices.

[ROM][26/05/12] SAGA C&L S3.6 [3.0.16-kernel]

C&L - Clean and Light
Hi everybody!
It is a really fast, smooth, clean, and light rom for our HTC Desire S.
It is based on my Sensation XL port, so it is Android 4.0.3, because i feel it much more
stable and smooth than leaked one.
Issues:(only bugs, they will be fixed soon with small patches)
-It starts faster than HTC RIL(have to wait until signal goes on)
-Not correctly scheduled key lights.(it is always on when screen on)
-Browser cache slower than needed.
Features:
-Dalvik-cache improved to the limit.
-Own key-lights fix.
-Own tethering fix.
-Own Hotspot fix.
-Removed many, many stock apps.(but will be available for those who wants)
-SuperSmooth hack included.
-EXT4
-DEODEXED
-BEATS AUDIO
What works:
-EVERYTHING!(cam too, panorama mode too, hotspot, etc..etc...)
(Only i could not try bluetooth headset, because i doesn't have, but bluetooth works properly)
Patches(soon):
-UltraSmooth hack, to disable "3D" widgets.
-Removed stock apps
-Browser fix
-Ril fix
-Keylights fix
It is great for every day use, always fast, there is no "cache traffic jam" which causes laggy behaviour after some time.
IMPORTANT:
-For first start every app will be slower, but it will be dalvik-cached and in the future it should be as fast as possible.
DOWNLOAD:
RC2 github
Market/Play Store patch (sorry, i forget)
Install:
1. Download Rom, and market patch
2. Copy to sdcard
3. Flash via CWM
4. Do data factory reset
If you like my work, please press a Thanks.

Great to see some new ports appearing. Thanks for this. Will definately give it a go.

yes as said above i am happy to see our device community coming together to create great roms for us end users. im happy for the desire s people right now

Is a browser patch still planned? A fast browser cache would make this ROM perfect.

Sent from my HTC Desire S using xda app-developers app

One bad thing: it's impossible to select home time in clock app. So the world time too. I've tried to input cities some different ways, but nothing changed.
Is it possible to remove ALL HTC default apps, such as news, friend stream and other? It's so easy to install just only that you need.
WishList:
- Default HTC keyboard w/o arrows. Because, default keyboard uses a little bigger buttons than keyboard from this ROM.
BTW - Perfect ROM! No problems! Thank you a lot!

And another bad thing:
I can't find how to change Shortcuts on the lock screen. May be someone knows how?
