[Q] Tying to change fonts in CM10.2 -- boot loop - General Questions and Answers

Ok, so I just got the new Nexus 7 and had to go CM 10.2 of course. However, it seems font changing procedures are different or something. Font Changer just refuses to work so I googled around. I see suggestions of iFont and tried it. Boot loop. I had to reflash. So what it the new procedure to change fonts? Must I do it manually? I don't even remember exactly how. (The last time I tried manually replacing them, it went BADLY...)
EDIT: Ok, I manually changed Roboto-Regular.ttf via a file manager. Are there any others of the main fonts I should change?

Roboto-Regular is the most used font in your Android system.
So by replacing that, the biggest part of Android will display your custom font.
But to make the whole system in your desired font, replace the whole font folder with your custom font, but I don't encourage that, because it can look weird on some places.
Hope this helped you

Well, that's the main one. Only thing to be wary about is when .TTF fonts have a typeface parameter in them. When I was moving regular to light, I thought moving bold to regular would look better with it. It bootlooped. Don't mix bold, italics, and normals.
TL;\DR bold fonts must be replaced with bold if you fancy changing it.

It's kind of annoying that I have to manually replace each individual part, but yeah, I've replaced each of the Roboto fonts. I've actually gone so far as to also replace Light and Thin as well. Unfortunately, I don't have a working bold replacement at the moment, but only a few things really use that, so it's not really bad.
Replacing the ENTIRE font folder is a bad idea though. I'm not going to do that. It would mess some things up. I've done that before and ended up with boot loops -- and I'm pretty sure that was still with bold only font replacing bold only fonts, italic only replacing italic only, and etc at the time (I was using a different font at the time compared to what I'm using now.) My general impression is that certain fonts may have to have something specific or not be larger than some maximum (very small) size.

Yeah, except for some odd reason ES File Manager is having troubles (I think it's not automatically remounting /system as read-write instead of the read-only default.) I just do it all in a terminal now. Usually I get lazy about it and do it via PuTTY (Servers Ultimate Pro can run a SSH/SFTP server, so I can do basically everything the adb server can do, only through a much nicer and more reliable interface than that horrible adb is that actually works over the network -- somehow adb over the network always gives me troubles...)
BTW, if anyone is curious, I'm using TitiliumText22L Light. It's a serif font, so not for everyone, but it's a very clean, thin font that's easy to read even in small sizes and to my eyes just looks amazing on a tablet or phone (oddly enough, I don't like it nearly as much on the PC... I'm guessing it's because they are such high DPIs that it's actually a much larger size on the tablets/phones and has a lot more detail since most PC monitors are around 96-ish.)

How do I increase the font size in Android

I often do not have my glasses and cannot read the screen without them. On WinMo there was a setting to change the default text size. Does such a setting exist in Android?
anyone? 10chars
There is a new app today in the market for *rooted* phones only, called Font Size.
It is still in beta and you'll need to have a good backup first in case of problems. I am running a rooted Nexus one and although it rebooted twice in a row after installation, it now works perfectly.
If you are running a rom with spares parts you can change it with that.

Or if your rooted and feel comfortable changing things. You can go into the build file ( which is a text file you can view through ES File Explorer and give the App super user abilities ( which you HAVE to change in the settings of the app as when the app boots it's already given those permissions. You need to give it permission to overwrite files ) Go to the System Folder which is located on the phone not the SD Card. Once viewing the build file.. in the middle of the text file you'll see 160 DPI is the default value, just under that are two values ( both stock at 160 ) and you change those. If you go to 180 everything on the phone becomes bigger or 140 and things become smaller ( Apps, text, everything ) then follows the instructions after which is to reboot the phone...all settings will take place.
Just do NOT change anything else in the build file.

How do i get to the build file? is it in an app or in my 4G.

Hi,
Found the build file and changed from 160 DPI to 180 DPI but when I reboot it does not overwrite the change. How do I get the change to stick.

Attach your build.prop here and I'll take a look at it.
You might need to rename it to .txt or put it in a .zip

How are you editing build.prop?
Also your rom must support DPI changes, not all of them do, which rom is this?
Once you change that number it should NOT get overwritten.
Spare parts will change menu font size, but won't stick after your screen rotates. If you have rotation off you should be fine. Otherwise the CM community is trying to get that option in spare parts to work, but it's not cooperating. Editing build.prop is probably the best bet.
ROM??? this is way out of my league. I tried spare parts but was unclear how to increase fonts. it seemed to only increase font in one menu screen.
not sure how to attach build prop.
DPI changes not just the font, but everything, like if your font gets bigger, so do your icons, menus, etc. That does work if you want that result. If you want to change ONLY your system font size and nothing else, you can go read this info, and change it this way:

If you're running CM7 there should be an option for changing contact text size. I've never used it, but I know it's there.

Doesn't anybody else think it's pretty bad this option isn't available by default on Android? Not everybody wants to root their phones. Not everybody knows a 3rd party app for this exists (and it doesn't even seem to work globally for all text to begin with).
Definite downside, in my opinion.

Talk to or email google about it. Actually, I believe there's a request for it somewhere on the aosp features page (something like that) you can star the issue and try to get more people to join it. Maybe google will look into it...
At least that's a better option than wishing constantly and not taking action

Use Spare Parts named app from market. It can directly make bigger your all fonts + no root.

ICS Roboto font

You can find the new Roboto font here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1309619
I recommend that if you're not going to install the font yourself using a file manager, don't use the flashable version -viperboy- has provided. Instead use the one mackster248 has posted in the 5th post under this one.
There you will also find the /system and /system/apps folders, but for now they're not very usable. They currently can't be deodexed with current tools.
On a side note, for those using a file manager to change fonts, here are some general instructions:
1. Ensuring you have R/W permissions to edit system files, copy the Roboto family of fonts into the /system/fonts folder.
2. Keep backups of your current fonts you plan on replacing (DroidSans family) by renaming their file types to .orig (For example, DroidSans.ttf becomes DroidSains.orig).
3. Change the fonts you plan on using into the names of the fonts you just changed to the .orig file type (Roboto-Regular.ttf becomes DroidSans.ttf).
4. Make sure to change the permissions of each font to rw-r--r-- once you've renamed them. if you don't know what I mean by that, make the permissions identical to the other fonts found in the folder.
5. Restart.
Be careful when doing this, if you do it incorrectly, you'll be stuck in a bootloop and will have enter the recovery to re-install the ROM to replace the system files again.
Thanks! I installed the replacement fonts after taking a suitable backup, just in case. It replaces three fonts in /system/fonts: Clocktopia.ttf, DroidSans.ttf and DroidSans-Bold.ttf. I think the difference is subtle on a per-character basis but taken together, I find it more easily readable. I did a side-by-side comparison and found that the characters in some cases are a little bit larger.

No problem. I'm really big into typography and I'm really enjoying this font. Windows Phone 7's font Segoe comes in a close second though, and I wish I could find a usable version of Nokia Pure.
Love this font! Switched from Segoe n they're similar but this is so neat

The differences are many, but all mostly subtle. I worked for a newspaper and page design/typography grew on me a lot so I notice the little things.
If you're not that much into typography, I can't blame you, it wouldn't appear much has changed.

You make a good point, but like myself, there are those who know they don't need to install another app when their familiar with use file managers to change system files.
For someone who is familiar and confident with how to do it themselves, the steps should take no more than 2 minutes, that doesn't like much work to me.

Agreed. That's how I learned all of this back in the G1 days. Which was either commands via Terminal or switching out files via Root Explorer, so I never even knew there were apps that do all of those things for you these days.

[Q][Rooted w/ EaglesBlood] Square in place of special character (é)

Hey everybody, I hope you're doing great!
First of all, I'd like to say that I just recently rooted my phone with the latest version of EaglesBlood and I must say that I am friggin' impressed with the speed. And on top of that, the rooting process itself was a definite walk in the park. For those interested, I used this guide.
Now, unfortunately, I ran into a very minor issue with how this new ROM deals with special characters ("é" in this case)
In fact, the issue is that when I unroll the status bar, my network's operator name is shown as "Vid□otron" and not as "Vidéotron" .
I was hoping there was a fix to this minor, yet recurring annoyance!
Thanks a lot for the help, and have an awesome day
P.S. I have searched the forums and have found no issues like this one. I might however be totally wrong!!!
Whatever font that is being used doesn't support that character.
To resolve the problem, consider using a different font that supports that character.

Thanks a lot for your answer, I didn't even know we could change fonts like that haha!
I've looked inside /system/fonts and I found out that the font being used is "DroidSans" which is the default font used on Android Phones, no?
I "tested" the font here with special characters and it works perfectly. On top of that, when I type special characters in text messages for instance, characters like é, è, à, ô look perfect.
Or is the font used in the status bar completely apart from the others?
Alright so I went ahead and modified the fonts like you suggested, but to no avail. It still shows as Vid□otron.
I have used the Coolvetica font.
Thanks for the help!!
Bump! Could use any help!

Sorry it took me so long to respond.
So you tested it, didn't give you problems in the test, but in the phone your service provider Vidéotron still doesn't show up correct, right?
It's most likely that it doesn't use the DroidSans font, but perhaps another. Maybe the DroidSans-Bold font might be the next place to look.

Thanks a lot for your reply jamadio, but unfortunately even after changing all the default fonts to the one suggested earlier ("Coolvetica"), the issue still persists and the carrier name still has a symbol/square inside of it!
I am really confused, as it worked properly on the stock ROM, and I fail to understand how and why it's not working anymore! Thanks a lot for any further help!!

One more idea. What if the EaglesBlood ROM didn't have the original DroidSans.ttf and was using another font named DroidSans.ttf? Maybe downloading the actual DroidSans font and using it might be your fix.
Up
Hi there,
Any development on this? Have you been able to change to font so that you can see "Vidéotron" correctly? I'm having the same issue here. With the Eaglesblood's CM9 ROM, it shows Vide[]otron (a square), and on Eaglesblood's AOSP ICS ROM, it shows Vid otron (a blank instead of the "é" character). Very strange... I used other custom roms and some work and some don't. I'd be curious to know if you managed to solved this problem.
Thanks

The sickly green color HTC used in the UI

HTC provided quite a few skins for this phone which I'm grateful for and combing the Matte skin with Apex is close to giving me the benefits of both ICS and Sense 4.0 looks (the Matte skin uses what appears to be the/a close representation of the ICS blue). Unfortunately, for whatever reason, HTC decided to leave a certain disgusting looking green present in its default menu/selection popup. Whats odd though, is that when you select something, it uses the blue from the Matte skin. HTC evidently didn't think this far through because there is no way those go together. What I was wondering was if anyone knows of where this green is, whether its a color code used somewhere (this is what I would expect) or an actual image. This is just very irritating to look at when it pop ups and really ruins the consistency of the phone IMO.
If your not sure what color I'm talking about long press on a photo and its that menu I'm referring to. The reason I think its just a color code is because the same green appears in the Root Explorer app at the top (thin line, right underneath the icon) so I would imagine the app is just referring to some default system color and using it to color that image. Could be totally wrong though and its just calling for an image that stretches to fill the space since its only a solid color.
Your solution would be to edit the systemui.apk and the framework-res.apk

I figured it was one of those two. I've only looked through the images contained in the SystemUI.apk file and didn't see anything that looked quite like the green bar. Guess I have to go through looking at the .xml files I'll check the framework-res.apk first thought and see if there's anything in there.
If I remember correctly, the images that are stretched in android are the png files that are the .9 images

You can't edit those without Root access You won't even be allowed to edit files in the /system directory without root.
So I looked in the framework-res.apk file and I found a lot of images that I believe are the green selectors I was referring to in the OP. The only problem, is I'm not sure of a perfect way to replace them (tried naming the original something weird, but then everything started crashing and needed to use adb to rename the file) and I'm not sure how good it will even look since it appears when you select something it uses several images to create a "light -> dark" type selection. I suppose I could edit the transparency of the files, but I don't know if it will be worth the effort. I might not even be doing the process correctly because I just rezipped my customized framework-res file and changed the extension from .zip to .apk. Is that even the proper thing to do?
Look at the second post here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=869198

need help with ifont

I have ifont donate version and I have always used it to change my fonts. I've always stuck to the preloaded fonts within the app but I've started playing g around with the custom ones by just searching them on google and downloading them to my phone, saving to custom folder in ifont, and then applying the custom font. Well I've used a few without any issues, until the other day when I applied one and ended up bricking my phone. So my question is can someone give me kind of a walk through on what the best settings to use are, and what to do and what not to do kind of thing. Under settings you can change the font mode (which is on auto automatically) to different things like Samsung, miui, recovery, and system mode (requires root). Would it be better to leave it on auto or change it to system mode? Also, when you go into the custom screen to add a custom font directly from your storage instead of adding it to the custom folder and applying it that way, there's a little button on the top right where you can change it to a ttf. What does that do and should I do it? How does a font brick a phone and how can you avoid it, or is it just sort of a gamble with every font? I am just trying to learn as much as I can so I know how to avoid getting bricked again. I am terrified to change it now but I miss my custom font =[ thank you in advance for the advice.

Sorry the button says "ttf to apk" could someone break that down? Would that be something I would want to do? And also I just realized I have another problem. For some reason my ifont folder doesn't contain a "custom" folder this time around..
Sent from my LG-D850 using XDA Free mobile app
not familiar with the app but I'll give you a couple tidbits. ttf = true type font, these are the kinds of fonts windows uses, and I'm sure most anything these days. FontName.ttf
there are other kinds and so that button would change it to ttf format, which is likely what the phone needs.
as for the system mode, since it requires root, I assume what it's going to do is copy the fonts to the /system/fonts folder for you, which sounds like the best idea to me assuming you have root. I don't see how a font program could brick your phone, the only thing it should be doing is copying files to and from the /system/fonts folder, which shouldn't harm anything.
So, make sure you are using .ttf fonts, and if not use the tool to convert them, and I would tell it to use the system(root) mode if you have root.

Oh ok, that clears it up a little bit about the ttf. So if I download a font from my browser and it is already a. Ttf then there's no reason to have to change it in the ifont app. Unless it is a different format then. Ttf.
However, I know that the font program is capable of bricking phones because it happened to me just last week. I wasn't aware that could happen either until it happened. Haha. And in my findings trying to research it, it's actually pretty common and happens a lot. I guess that when you change a font to anything that isn't a system font that comes stock on the phone there is a potential for something to go wrong because it changes around some of the system files so if the tiniest thing is wrong or it isn't compatible in some way it can happen. I don't know what happened with mine, I know the one I installed was a .ttf and it wasn't anything big or bulky or anything too crazy so I have no idea what went wrong. I'm just staying away from that font now.
What I'm really just trying to figure out is whether there is really any way to avoid it happening or to tell whether it would be compatible or not, or if it's really just a gamble and a chance of luck.
