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 installed App ops 4.3/4.4 app from the play store . And was surprised to see that the app provides path to the native app ops on stock not rooted kk.
You can try it out guys.
Ps: Please Mods move it to Apps section.
Hi guys! So I just wanted to ask If I can move these Apps (without any problems) from system to user apps?..
. Google Camera + Gallery
. Gmail
. Google Maps
. Google Play Services
. Google Play Store
. Google Search
. Google Text to Speech Engine
. Hangouts
. Youtube
. SuperSU
Thanks for your attention!
Yes I believe you can. Go on play store and download an app called root app delete. You can do many other things like uninstall system apps. Change names, icons, etc.
Even if something goes wrong, it is very easy to push the apk back to /system, fix permissions and reboot, so go ahead!

There is this spreadsheet and other sources around the forum, but I would use a Custom ROM like Darthstalker 7 which already has bloatware removed.

Can you explain me how to fix them please? =(
Just copy the apk back to /system/app and then change their permissions to match the permissions of the other apps (I can't remember what the exact permissions are) and reboot and the app will be back in system and should work fine.

How ??
If you use a root file manager there will be an option to change the permission of a file that you select. Just press and hold the file and select change permission. I use es file explorer for example.

If you are on 8.0.0 you can download from play store app called Theme Galaxy and from there you will find section 'fonts'.When you download them you just need to reboot your phone and that's it,good luck.
Download from Play Store app like "Fonts for Samsung" (AFonts).
Install app - download fonts - restart phone - change fonts.
