LunarUi Theme Missing Icons

Hello everyone!
I am brand new to the android world, so please be patient with me.
I installed Launcher Pro (the free version) on my Chacha, and then bought the Lunar Ui Theme Pack for that launcher.
I went to settings from Launcher Pro and clicked on the Lunar Ui package, restarted and.. voila!
Some icons changed, like the Twitter and Whatsapp icons... but most of them stayed the same!
For example, the phone icon is supposed to be pink and pretty (like shown in the screenshot from the store) but mine looks just plain and boring, like before.
It's weird that some icons changed and some didn't. Did I do something wrong? Is there a way to change the icons manually for each app? Any suggestions?
I am using Super Stock Rom, in case that helps.
Thank you for taking your time for reading this!

[Q] Bigger text

¿Is there any possibility to get the text bigger?
I've stock ROM.
Thanks
There are some apps available to change fonts and font size. But I think you'll need root for them...
Sent from my HTC ChaCha with CM9 using XDA app.
You have following options:
1) Install CM9 ROM for HTC ChaCha. Under Settings/System/Font size you can change default font size up to Huge. Huge fonts looks very cool and native on HTC ChaCha. The only exception is System Apps program which has 3 tabs on top "Downloaded", "Runnning" and "All", - and you cannot see tab title "All" because it is out of screen borders (but still selectable on touchscreen).
2) Replace system fonts with larger font. There are fonts which by default are larger comparing to standart DroidSans or Roboto. Also, you can try to scale a font using font development programs (like FontForge). I've tried to enlarge Roboto to 120% of it's standart size. I've applied on my device and it was working, however some characters no longer were properly hinted and aligned and I could not fix that problem with FontForge.
3) Use application or app launcher which can enlarge fonts. Like "Big Fonts" or Go Launcher. I have no experience with these apps.
4) Use application which alters LCD density. This actually will enlarge not only fonts but all the graphics on your screen. I did not tried it, since it causes other problems.
I was able to modify Roboto font by increasing it to 115% using FontCreator app without noticeable aligning/hinting sideeffects.
Font looks ok on CM7.2 ROM, however on few places text overlaps and is cropped from top.

[Q] Is changing icons system wide?

Hi, could anyone with an S6 check for me if changing the icons with the theme engine carries over to other launchers as well? I'm not the biggest fan of Touchwiz but if I could change all the icons while using the Google Now launcher I'll actually consider this phone.
Thanks!
Not it doesn't. At least not with Sense 7. Still default icons. Also, only default app icons are themed, so changing icons like this is not really great.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
You can change fonts to most anything but the lock screen is different. Just leave it stock.
Here is a googlesans font.
I've found that in the Fontfix app, you can select the font to change, so to change the lockscreen font you just need to replace GoogleSans-Regular with your custom font, all good
There are others fonts to replace on the system, I'll be playing with the app to see what fits my requirements.

Question How to change Lockscreen/AOD clock font only in OneUI 4.1

I like using the Default (Roboto) font but the Samsung font used for the Lockscreen and AOD clock is ugly and has inconsistent spacing. Changing the system font to any other option changes the clock style. When I use a font installer to install Roboto, it does change the clock, but creates an issue where font weight and spacing are incorrect in many apps. Yes, I also tried a variable font version as well. I realize that Samsung is likely using multiple font files to create Default and the font installer is limited. I also tried GoodLock with Clock Face but almost all centered options use the ugly Samsung font too.
Does anyone know how to change just the Lockscreen and AOD clock fonts? Back in the day, someone was able to modify Good Lock to give extra options but I'm hoping there is a simpler solution. Thanks in advance.
Hello. I have the exact same thoughts about the default One UI lockscreen font. Could you please share a bit more details on the Good Lock extra options?
Btw, I did try to install the system font with the Roboto TTF file like you mentioned in the OP and the lock screen looks much better now. I do get your point about "issue where font weight and spacing are incorrect in many apps", but fortunately for me, WhatsApp is the only app where I see this. And it does not look all that bad. So I believe I'm going to stick to this way.
Here's how:
Download 'SetEdit (Settings Database Edit)' from Google Play Store.
Open and find 'theme_font_clock' row, then tap it.
Tap 'Edit Value' and input with your font path addreses (*example: /storage/emulated/0/My Fonts/DS-DIGIB.TTF).
Tap 'Save Changes' and you're done!
Take a look!
*supports .ttf and .otf formats
works without root
Found it on reddit

Confirmed, does NOT work in OneUI 5.0. Was excited too.
I hope there will be another way...
