Installed Roboto Font on the galaxy note and it looks very nice
I have taken this from the guide prepared by user Mustang302LX on Rootzwiki forum, so i take no credits for it and thank the user for putting it together from internet
The below method worked flawlessly but i don't take responsibility for any unwanted damages
Pre-requisite: root using any of the methods specified in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1329360
*root explorer may not be needed compulsorily and can be managed with any file explorer / by mounting sd card in computer
http://db.tt/bTJM9zRA
To install:
Download file on your phone. Once complete open Root Explorer and navigate to /sdcard/downloads and long press on the zip you just downloaded. Choose to extract all to /sdcard/extracted
If you don't already have the app download Font Changer from the market (free). Once downloaded navigate in Root Explorer to /sdcard/extracted and copy both Roboto font files. Paste them in /sdcard/.fontchanger. Now open up font changer and apply Roboto font!

I have also attached the files in this post for easy access
Some screenshots
Using "Cuprum". Most of the fonts in the screenshots can be found at www.google.com/webfonts
Installed the font. I really like Roboto Font. Everything seems fine except the homescreens do not scroll smoothly now.
Anyone else having the same issue ?
Thanks.
p.s. I'm not sure if this is from the font or from the rooting tbh

Touchwiz or some other launcher? If it's the latter it's a known issue... only touchwiz is scrolls smooth atm.

I've found that theres not too much difference with these two fonts on this high res display. It made a world of difference on the Samsung Galaxy Tab but really not too noticeable on the Note ....

no worries. I found turning off the "screen bounce" aka Elasticity in Launcher Pro seems to reduce the scrolllng lag between home screens. Had to turn off app drawer animation though.
Helvetica neue is better
I prefer the Helvetica Neue Flipfont.

This is the way to have the Helvetica font (Iphone) in our i9003.
Download Helvetica Font, extract the rar, and copy files to external SD. Then with Root Explorer copy them to /system/fonts and replace files (do a backup of the replaced files previously to restore if you dont like the changes). Reboot!
This files can be used in any android phone (just have to change the name of the predetermined font to replace it).
I know that is an app somewhere in the forum and a payd app, but it is too small, dont have the "¿" and other symbols, and have problems with the some apps like TW Calendar. THIS IS NOT THE SAME FONT OF THE APPS !
Helvetica Font Multiupload link
You can download Font Changer and put files inside app folder to change fonts too.
Can you upload into multi-upload? I can't access Megaupload in China Hong Kong.

Friends, just find a fonts rar file attached. The files inside are in apk format so just install as regular applications. This include even Helitica font also. After installation u will find these fonts under Settings>display>fonts. Enjoy
I did't want to open a seperate thread for this. Hope it's fine.

That app is NOT THE HELVETICA FONT. Its the Helvetica Std Medium Condensed. Is really ugly, and its not the same font of Iphone.
Most of the kewl flip fonts on market is compatible for our phone thot everyone knew tat! And its free for anyone to dld. Or use the app called fontimizer it'd do the work

Its call Fontomizer, and it doesnt have Helvetica font (Just Hindi).
I wouldnt create this thread without any previous investigation. The fonts in market are not free, and even then, they are no like this one. They are too small to read, and and doesnt have all symbols.
Thanks for sharing, juanmaper.
going to give it a try
Hi Everyone!
First of all i know there have been few threads related to this but those were questions i just wanted to share my experience and help our friends to find it easily
Why Photoshop® Touch?
* i dont use much of custom roms but i installed Paranoid Android(Table/Hybrid) recently and i dont want to go back to use Stock Rom! only one thing pulled me my S-Pen but no S-Premium Suite?
Then i Realized i always wanted to try Photoshop® Touch but it is specially for tablets only i think? :silly:
So Special thanks to Paranoid Android Team we have Tablet/Hybrid rom it is very smooth give it a try
here
About Photoshop® Touch
Its a powerful tool as we all know, a bit hard to use compared to S-Memo but worthy running on tablet mode(for me Paranoid Android v0.5)
S-pen Hover works as well
check out the screen shots i took below
Download
Google Play
i hope developers will find a fix for dpi in ROMS for this app but still works well for me

Hi,
On my Note with rooted stock rom, I've tried both PSTouch 1.4.1 (tablet version) and PSTouch for phone 1.0.0
Both works but dpi is not suitable. Texts are unreadable.
Is there a solution for this?
I think.. use app per density to change dpi could work. Of coz i already tried it..

I was never was a huge fan of the stock Samsung 2014 UI Weather Clock Images (AccuweatherPhone14.apk)
So here is my version of it with "Real Weather" images and a redesigned UI for the full screen weather.
Already have this posted in some other forums I just thought I would bring it these forums for you to enjoy.
All background images have been replaced with non-flat high quality weather conditions. This includes the widget, list and fullscreen views in both portrait and landscape.
A lot of time and work went into creating this so please if you want to include it in a mod or ROM it is OK but you must let me know through a private message AND link to this thread with appropriate credit given. That is all I ask.
Should work on rooted Note 3, galaxy s4 and S5. Most likely any KitKat touchwiz device running 4.4.2
Let me know how it works out for you. Please back up your old clock just in case you don't like this one)
Enjoy!
=============================
Features:
-Hi quality images for alls view in both portrait and landscape.
-Widget with Note 4/Alpha fonts
-Custom Full Screen UI with G3 like condition text
-City List View
-Transparency setting

-Blended UI (GS5 + Alpha)
-you can apply weather widget to 3rd party launchers and have same backgrounds (weather only no time)
-Available in either 4x2 or 5x2
-No need to delete anything. Mod will take care of any old versions and/or any odex files.
-Zip includes Everything you need including widget, weather engine and font files.
=============================
Installation instructions:
1. Download and flash from recovery. Includes all neccesarry files and will clean up any old versions and odex files on install.
2. Power up and place widget on screen.
If widget fails to load data go to application settings and clear the data/cache to weather and unified daemon.
Also, if you have a previously installed weather clock mod that was installed as a normal app be sure to uninstall that.

Shouldn't be. The zip installs the fonts for the clock. Could be launcher related I suppose. I am aware that there is issues with 4.4.4 and tmo in S4 forums could be the same here.

I'm on S5 launcher now. I've seen so many variants of them . I really think its a tmo thing as I had issues with them here and there. 4.4.4 I believe.
If anyone has issues with this please tell me what ROM, Android version, build and carrier so I can narrow it down easier.
Thanks.

If you extract the zip and copy/paste the files using root explorer then set permissions to rw,r,r then reboot yes. Just be sure to delete old files and odex files first.

Does anyone know where official themes from the Samsung Theme store are located? And yes I am almost certain that root would be required so my phone is rooted.*
Basically I want to edit a certain theme from the Samsung Store using the Samsung Theme editor program which I will be able to do if I have the apk of the theme.
I think each icons of stock theme all in system app.
Where you get theme editor? And why you think you can edit apk by theme editor? I think the tool to edit theme apk is apk tool.

I got theme editor from https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s7/themes/unleash-creativity-download-samsung-t3478823
If I were to get the location of a official Samsung Theme which I have installed, I can edit it from Samsung theme editor because Samsung theme editor basically edits (or you can create your own) a apk theme. Yes I could use apktool but I could only use that if I knew where the theme was located. And I think apktool would be harder to use than Samsung theme editor because it is not specifically made to edit Samsung themes like the Samsung software is.
Create new is yes. Edit is no. You need project to open in it. Not apk

That editor cannot open apk files, only .stp format are allowed which you cannot have unless you are the original creator of that theme, themes are located on data/app, it's devided into 4 different base app (wallpaper, home, appicon and the whole theme base apk)
Apktool is much better, that editor is so outdated and will cause alot of color glitches/bugs when trying it on an S8

Hey guys
I've been searching around and there's only FlipFont fonts and some .zip fonts to install via TWRP...
but there's not so many options as apk...
i've been searching for 4 months for Yosemite SanFrancisco font to my Galaxy S8.....but i cant find!
can you help me with that?
can i get the ttf font and make an apk?
i really avoid to root my phone...
thanks!
Same problem...And I'm a traditional Chinese user, so I can not even find a usable font from Google Play or Samsung APP's store.
I also want to use the Yosemite SanFrancisco font for my S8 because this font is my favorite when I'm with my OnePlus 3T.
You may try Wings Samsung Fonts for Substratum (t.me/TeamWings). Just be sure that SamsungSans is already installed.
BTW: Yosemite SanFrancisco is included.
