[Q] TTF to APK conversion/ Font APKS - Lollipop - General Questions and Answers

HI,
I am a fan of this site for many reasons. Mainly, I like modifying my Samsung Galaxy S2 T989 with APK fonts in order to compensate for the abandoning of updates on this device. Since Lollipop was officially announced, has anyone made a set of APK's for the new Lollipop Roboto? Would like them to be scaled for smaller devices. Otherwise, what should I do to convert the TTF files to APK files?

There's an app ifont that can convert .ttf fonts to .apk files. Give it a try

[Q] Anyone knows how to edit ttf fonts?

I'm not sure wich is the correct place fot this question, so I'm posting in general section..
I'm theming a rom to make it look like AOSP..
I replaced rom's fonts with AOSP fonts extracted from a virtual device.. Texts now look like JB, but asterisc in dialer is out of place!
I can't decompile SemcPhone.apk to edit layout because apktool doesn't let me recompile it, even if I decompile and recompile without changing any file!
The only solution is insert sony's font asterisc into roboto font.. I tried to do that with High-Logic FontCreator 7.5 and I created an edited ttf, but fonts with accents (I.E: áéíòü) were gone!
Anyone can do this? Or knows about a tutorial? Or can teach me how to do that?

Request : S6 S-voice apk

I can't download the System dump because my internet is horrendously slow If anyone has the apk, please share

Emoji switcher

Anyone have an ideal why emoji switcher isn't working with my Samsung s7 rooted? Can't get it to work. I want to install emoji one style.
Thx an advance. I'm sorry I'm French btw.
Tried that too without success. Not sure wether it was working on my S6, I don't recall.
Probably because of touchwiz, we should hope for an update I guess.
Not of a fan of touchwiz emoji's, prefert the aosp ones.

From the information i skimmed through, it doesn't work on samsung phones, but what i did was just download the emoji font file, and replace the samsung one, there should be a lot of info on this if you just search for it.

Thank you! It working!
Just found out, when I install the emoji one style from they site, the font have a weird issue. My keyboard show the good emoji but there is a bug with words. There have no space between word in text or anything else. Any ideal?
If you want to change emojis you need to get replace 1 file.
"SamsungEmoji.ttf" I think, then reboot. Just download like AOSP emoji and rename it to SamsungEmoji and put it in to /system/fonts

It was "SamsungColorEmoji.ttf" in my S7, worked great. Thanks!
Can this download and renaming in /system/fonts be done without root?

Nope, it's in the root directory, so you'd need root to access it.
Can new emojis only show up if you send them to other Galaxy S7 phones? What happens when you send them to other phones?
When I used Galaxy S7 emoji file to replace my Galaxy S5 emoji file, all the emojis previously present on Galaxy S5/S6 correctly show up but mot the new ones.
Does that mean that additional font files are needed to display them correctly, in addition to renaming the emoji file from Galaxy S7 from SamsungColorEmoji.ttf to NotoColorEmoji.ttf on Galaxy S5/S6?
I replace the font with this one, got back Google's Emojis on the S7

ASUS Hidden Fonts

Hi Guys,
When I extracted the Stock Nougat Firmware for ZE520KL/ZE552KL and ZS551KL, I found this fonts. The font is quite good though. Have a try guys.
Procedure:-
1) Download and install the APK.
2) Go to Settings>Display>Font Style>Choose the font
The font name is in Chinese but don't worry, it does not change the language.
Huh, these are Flipfont fonts designed for Samsung phones. A few years ago Samsung phones had the ability to switch the font on their phones and download new ones. They removed it in an update a few years ago, but it looks like based on this, ASUS actually still supports them.
