Unlike the Vibrant, the Captivate only came with one system font. Is there any way to grab these from the Vibrant??
I really don't want to install a Market app just to be able to change the fonts.
it uses all the same fonts, not sure what fonts your are talking about.

When I go into the Display settings there is a selection to change the font. There are two choices. Default and Download Fonts.
My friends Vibrant came with 5 or 6 fonts pre-installed. AT&T chose to remove them.
Those are the fonts I am talking about.
Flashing with the Stock Galaxy S I9000 on Captivate I have additional fonts...
OK, just found them... I was looking in the wrong place. Checked it out on my friends Vibrant, there are 3 additional fonts. Ill post them up soon.
here ya go;

extract and install all 3 apks, then you will have all three fonts available
Thanks!!
.............
thanks x2.
Thanks, appreciate it.
I installed the apks, and I see them under the font menu ... I selected one (jazz) and rebooted, but I saw no difference in fonts anywhere.
What is this supposed to impact?

After installing apk's
Goto Settings > Sound & Display > Fonts
Select font from there.
On a similar note, has anyone pulled any of the 3rd party apps from i9000? They have a nav app, and Vlingo i think. The nav app looks a lot more polished then google's.

Right, I did that and selected Jazz. I see them in the menu. It then told me to reboot to see the changes. I rebooted and I see no change. I checked the Font menu again, and it showed me using Jazz.
Worked great for me! Thanks!!
Same as other said installed and switched font restart phone and looks same as before. Not.working here either

I did the SRE mod from the development page and had the font changed for a while. I took the battery out so I could get at the SIM card so I could activate a jailbroken IPhone through ITunes, and haven't been able to get the font working again since I booted back up. Tried switching to a different font, and tried switching to the system font and back. Tried rebooting and shutting down and restarting but I can't seem to get it to change the fonts anymore. I really liked the font change a lot. Any suggestions on how I can reload the fonts?
Edit, nevermind... just tried it again for the hell of it and it's working fine now. Go figure!
thank you so much!!!!!!!
I've been using these for a few hours and love it so much. It makes the whole phone so much better! Thanx again!!!!
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!
Bump the bump! Thanks!

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
"new OP (still WIP)
theme got updated to support nougat, now with S8 influence.
PLEASE REMOVE COMPLETELY OLD VERSION IF YOU HAVE ANY BEFORE INSTALLING THIS. The newest version is "0terpsichora_N_RC3. apk" and "0terpsichora_N_RC3_lightnotif"
PLEASE INSTALL ONLY ONE, you cannot install both at the same time. If your rooted and have means to change title text color on notification or just can bear with the dark one use the ..RC3.apk, if you're not rooted and want a bugless theme use the ..RC3_lightnotif.apk one.
*
Still bugged (dark colored on 3rd party apps) notification title text (need help on this, or ask rom developers to support dark notification template on their ROMs) please report any miscolored, bugs or give bright ideas to improve this. thanks for using, enjoy and please atleast let me know if you kang any part of this theme.
INSTALLATION for rooted devices (you should do all this before 5min trial ends) :
-install and apply theme
-go fast to your root file manager and navigate:
-root/data/overlays/preferences folder
-delete all its contents (7files) not the actual preferences folder.
-then navigate to:
-root/data/overlays/jsonfiles
-from there, CUT and paste the contents (1file) of trialjson folder to inside of userjson folder.
-restart phone and reapply theme.
reserve for Q/A
Nice keep up the good work mate, will test this bad boy and post feedback later..

those icons are Grace UX icons mate, I just reduced the roundness of the original. as for the sizes yeah I think it's kinda big if you use 4x4 grid on homescreen try to use 5x5 and see.. (thanks for input, I will try with smaller icons for system apps and the rest and make an update )
Wowww beautiful thank you
Can you fix the bugs and make more themes like these? Btw i think the blue sym, smiley, enter and back button on the keyboard isn't that nice. Can you make it grey. And the keyboard swipe color too
Thanx
Oh and the blue quick toggles too. I think the blue that is used in this theme isn't very nice. Gray will b much nice o white
only for root!
The theme is only for those with root devices?

guys be sure to restart after applying the theme as there are assets that can only be seen ones the Theme applied fully loaded. I try to include dynamic icons on the clock but it's only semi dynamic (it changes only if the home screen refreshes/restarted)
**and also if someone can post a proper screenshots for this I'll be glad.

mate i do not need to tell me how, thanks for your hard work.....you will be great if you can save the theme in wqhd and not fhd resolution!!!!!
Great theme but it is a shame to have to use a 3rd party unknown chinese app that needs to have total control of your device just to run the theme. I really liked the theme but any app like package disabler asking for such permissions is beyond my security concerns. Thank you a lot for the theme, truly a great piece.
I'm having an issue with theme being in trial mode, can only use it for 5 minutes.
By the way, really nice theme, I love it!

I made the Theme even before the Theme Editor is released so I just used the Olympic theme as my base, that one having a fhd resolution only. I tried to migrate my work to the Theme editor and try the wqhd resolution but it looks weird, so I just go with the fhd again sorry.

that's also a bummer, I got rejected as a theme designer @samsung So no chance that you will see this theme on the Store. unless you root your device you have to go with that disabler app if you like to use this.

cant do it on the theme editor so unpack/decompile the theme apk bro, look on assests folder, the one apk with ..aodservice in it, also unpack it. compare yours with mine to modify to your liking, then on your aodservice apk look to the values folder and edit your public.xml delete all id's. just repack/recompile your aodservice apk and put it again on your theme package. then recompile your theme package and sign it. (seems complicated if your not familiar with old school themeing, but if you know what I'm talking about, its very easy )

I totally forgot about that,Ö I think there's a bug on the editor that you released because on the output apk, when I inspect it there is no ..inCallui on the asset folder.. I'll fix it, give me time, I'll make it great with note7 icons also on the next update with smaller icons and camera Ala note 7.
*and I think we are really getting near on receiving Grace UX, because that theme editor has so much stuff from Grace UX. little by little they're removing stuff from old touchwiz.

Hello all,
I am unable to use custom fonts with my KWGT/Zooper Widgets. In fact, I can't even use the built in fonts that come with both of those apps. They simply show up as the default font.
Example, attachment #1 is how it should look. Attachment #2 is how it does look after choosing.
I haven't had this issue on any other phones, figuring its a Honor/Huawei thing. I'm hoping somebody has a work around for this.
Thanks!
I figured out that it just defaults back to the default font. How do I keep it from doing this with widgets?

Does somebody know hot to fix this? After Oreo update, I can finally change the font on my Honor 8 even if I'm not using English as system language; but every time I change the system font, the fonts of all my widgets stop working. It's a really strange behavior for a customization app, I'm forced to choose between keeping my widgets and the custom font! How could this be possible? Using these widgets for customization prevents me from doing a 100% customization of the phone!!!

Yo, check out "Trend Font" the apk is not found on play store, so its "unknown sources" and giyf !!
You then have the choice of 39 fonts to install, with no more annoying messages from your awesome new phone.
I tested a few with success on my unrooted s8+
You may then even upload your own personal favorite font, and they may add it to the list for you.
once the font you want is installed you can uninstall Trend Font if you want.
These fonts have also been tested on all galaxy devices including S8, S8+, S7 and S7 edge.
==============EDIT==================
A few dudes out there had issues with this app for reasons unknown to me.
To save anyone else any further hassle, I have collected them all and uploaded a zip with the lot
There are 39 fonts here.
Ps would love "storopia" or "clockopia" if anyone has the skillz to provide? Thanks

the only thing this app will do for you successfully is deliver ads. Even when you click the X on the ad, it takes you to the ads site or app. Waste of time, does not work for Samsung Galaxy S series phones.
I tried just about everything on the S7E to get a font I wanted, samsung doesn't even offer it or i'd have purchased it to save the trouble I went through. I tried over a dozen apps and none of them worked. It just doesn't appear possible. The phone would kick back anything as an unrecognized font (regardless of font format even)
Mate, works for me, otherwise why would i post ?
Open app with data and Wi-Fi off, select your font, turn only DATA back on, then try Selecting the font you want again.
Someone else thanked me so maybe you have other problemo your end?
Attached are three I picked as random as proof this works... I'm using adhell if that makes any difference?
Otherwise I will fetch them all for the community, but my balls are aching at the thought of doing this 50 times when I got the one I wanted first time honest!

Samsung phones only accept fonts developed by Monotype Imaging Inc. There are a few on the Play Store, although some of them are quite goofy looking, there were one or two that I liked.
Only other place to get custom fonts is Samsung Galaxy Apps Store, and over there most of them aren't even in English, so I've decided to stick with the default font.

Not a big fan of the fonts shown in the screenshots, are there more or is that it?
There was a way to get Roboto Light before Samsung patched that way in December 2015 and since then I've only been able to get MonoType fonts to work correctly.
Is this a way to get rid of the cryptic asian style emoji that samsungs come with? I cannot understand what most of them even mean.

I should probably point out I did this on a desktop computer. It does automatically download the "downloader" file, which I then deleted. But then it gives the direct download option, which allows downloading the font apk file. I transferred that to my phone, which installed the font.
But it only works for Monotype fonts...RobotoCondensed-Bold is not one of them.
