As we know, installing flipfonts downloaded from the Samsung settings menu does not work. Until this is corrected this is an alternative way (without root) to do it.
Install this app called "Ifont" from the Google Play Store.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kapp.ifont
Open the app after you download it then close it.
Download flipfonts. You can get them from the Google Play Store but you need to have the apk or know where it is at. The best option is to download from xda in this link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=894397
Find the flipfont apk's you downloaded with the file explorer of your choice and copy them to root of the ifont folder located in your internal storage. Then click on the flipfont and install it.
Exit the file explorer and go into settings/my device/display/font style and change it to Rosemary. It has to be change to a pre-installed flipfont other than default.
Open the ifont app. Scroll to the Local section. You should see the flipfonts you downloaded. Click on the font you want to install and click set and then OK.
Reboot and bamm!! Your done.
The key is you have to let Ifont set it for you.
Found this on another forum.. just thought I'd share it with you..
That was easy thanks a lot. I can finally use the Sony sketch that i love so much

thx
good
Good find man, I saw another thread someone post asking if anyone found a way to get flip fonts to work!
Definitely going to try this out right now even though I've never used any fonts other then the stock fonts ever on any of my phones going all the way back to the G1 lol.
Edit: I saw an option to reduce font size with IFont if you have root, have you tried to see if it works? The main thing that has always attracted me to AOSP roms is being able to make the text as small as I wanted - with touch wiz the text size is massive for me lol.

I did not make this or have anything to do with it i am simply putting it out there for people to get and try out
You must have Root and use a program like system app remover or some other program that allows you to delete pre installed apps or system apps open it up and delete the stock facebook apk then simply place the black facebook apk on your sd card navigate to it using my files or any file manager program and install the apk just like you would if it was from the market

Theres a very cool app on market named FONTOMIZE SP with the help of this app u can download varities of fonts and change them without root access. Just search "FONTOMIZE SP" on market download it. Rest of the instructions are in app so make the most out of your galaxy r
UPDATE: Those who are not satisfied with the font collection from FONOMIZE SP(only a few fonts available) can search on google "FLIPFONT.APK" and u can then just look at other threads and links to get cool fonts

It won't be in the app drawer. Go to settings > themes, u will see it there.
You can uninstall a theme from there itself or do it in settings >apps
LIFE! IT'S WHAT YOU MAKE OUT OF IT!
Since you got it from Play Store, it's been already installed. Go to Settings>Themes and you can choos it, or stick with the stock one.
Thank you !
This is my 1st real guide, so bear with me!
I am not liable if you damage your phone in anyway! if you have any doubts, don't do it!!
I confirm this is working great on my Sprint S4, so ill give yall a step by step of how I did it.
Now of course you can get this by flashing Free Gs4 rom, but if you don't like that rom, or just like a different rom, but still want that split view toggle effect then this is for you! Im using it on Force Rom, so I am only going to recommend using this method on TW based roms. and only for sprint, it may crash if used for other carriers.
1.Download FreeGs4 Rom.
https://www.copy.com/s/W602hFj2bLqR/FreeGS4-v2.0.0SPR-Clark44.zip
2. Download whatever TW rom you decide on. go ahead and flash it, root it first of course (you know the steps)
3. I recommend going ahead and downloading droid explorer. That will help out the process, just so your pc see's the apk's right.
http://de.codeplex.com/releases/view/107423
4. Open up the FreeGs4 rom, go to System/Apps/SecMms.apk, go ahead and drag SecMms.apk and put it on your desktop.
5. Plug your device in and make sure USB debugging on (I recommend having it on at all times).
6. From your Desktop go ahead and drag the SecMms.apk and put it on the root of your external sd card( you could use your internal if need be)
7. Go to Playstore and download Root Explorer, once in root explorer, find your /system/app/SecMms.apk
8. Rename your SecMms.apk. Rename it SecMms.apk.bak
9. Now go to where you placed the SecMms.apk from FreeGs4, and copy it.
10. Paste the FreeGs4 SecMms.apk into /System/Apps
11. Reboot and Enjoy! :laugh::laugh:
(you shouldn't have to change permissions on the FreeGs4 SecMms.apk, they should already be ready to go!
Please give me thanks, if this helped you out at all,
and reply if you have any questions.
I check back pretty frequently!
Heres a screen shot!
Why would someone download a whole ROM (1.5 GB) for just one apk. Just upload the secMms.apk from that ROM and it should work fine for all.

Have rotation turned on and rotate your phone then it will look like that! Might have to turn it on in the messaging settings somewhere, not sure.

Yes, there will be others. Once I get a complete theme together, i will be putting out different ones. It is just taking a while because 4.4.4 is challenging. I will do one without the pictures next.

Would it be to hard to help me or give me hints in how to modify the dial pad color... for example i would like to change dial to like a neon blue and add a different background. But to be honest i just start it to theme my note 4 and as a beginner im kind of lost in many things but learning and loving it. One thing i can seem to find a way is how to replace or modify .qmg or how would i start ... if its possible to change looks . I notice your theme for dial and wonder how how did he did it..
Thanks hope you dont mind me asking and if you need my email to answer better let me know...

First of all, google qmg to png converter. Find the one that is an an apk. It will convert and put files right on your phone. Only replace the pngs you want to modify so you don't make the apk too big. As far as the dialer background, you need to write the background in in your styles.xml. it has gotten a little harder on 4.4.4. Look for DeviceDefault and stay there.

Put the icons in whatever folder they came out of.. Probable drawable-sw360dp-xxhdpi and delete the qmg or astc file with the same name. You have to search for the colors. They are not all in one place.
