Fonts for CM7 Thunderbolt?

Were can I get fonts for CM7? How do I install them? Im being told font changer but ppl are also saying dont use it. Is there a metamorph mod for font or a flashable zip in recovery? I want sony sketch font. Please help.
thanks

BUMP......

I've never had any issues with Font Changer or Custom Font Switcher.
Right now I use Absolute System Root Tools and love it. It's a paid app but has a bunch of features including a boot animation changer and font changer.
JRummy has a paid apps just like it in the market also. I think it's just called Root Tools or Root Toolkit.
Hope I helped.

Build apk of personal fav font
The thing about fonts is we will always want a new one or switch between a few choices and they must be varies among users. Imho, it's better for us to build our own favorite apk font. The old apks seemed no longer works on 4.3. Can you give us a clue how to make it usable. Kindly skip the decompile/modying parts and get straight to the part of rebuild it (recompile and sign). Thanks a ton in advance and pardon the languange.

Use ifont on 4.3
No longer need apk, use ifont instead. Mine, version 3.6.1, not from the market. I recall installing one from playstore and it didn't work. With this all you need is place your ttf in ifont/custom. Let the app does its magic.

Thanks
Thanks. This is the only Roboto fonts that works with StockROM 4.3 on my Galaxy Note2. I would be appreciate if you could make apk for Roboto Regular as well. Thanks.

Sorry to bring up this old theme, but HelveticaNeue looks amazing on my 800x480 screen on the Galaxy S2+.
Unfortunately it does not contain the Cyrillic symbols, despite being the largest file (or i have a misconfiguration somewhere). Franklin is closest to it and does cover Cyrillic. The Roboto family does that too, but is too narrow for my taste.
Thank you very much for the great selection, it does certainly bring new looks to my device.

Is there any regular Arial? Man I searched everywhere and all the ones I found aren't compatible.

dacol87, is it possible to create font - sony sketch?

[Font] How to change Persian / Arabic Font in Note3

Hello everyone !
I'm going to tell you how to change Persian or Arabic fonts in beloved Galaxy Note3!!
First of all you need to have Root access , with a simple search in forums you can findout how to Root.
Then you got to install "Root Explorer " or any file manager you know how to work with and gives you system file access .
Now download any font you like or copy from your C:windows/font folder to your SD card and rename it to GS45_Arab_AndroidOS.ttf the font file must be in ttf format itself, which all are in.
Next go to Root/system/fonts and change the font file with name GS45_Arab_AndroidOS.ttf to GS45_Arab_AndroidOS2.ttf or anything so when you regret changing your font you have the original one lol .
However, copy your new GS45_Arab_AndroidOS.ttf this folder.
TADA you just have changed your FONT !! :victory:

or just install fontchanger and change it in advanced mode......TADA

One of the problems in changing the font for me as bilingual user is finding a good font that has good combination of fonts in single file !
You'll get one of the language's font is good and the other would, most probably, suck !
But thanks for the OP, Windows fonts are mostly good for both langs !

Well, you always can find nice English fonts in market for flipfont but they usually change your English font and keep your Arabic/Persian font same as default. But with this method you can change the default Arabic/Persian font as you want then use other fonts for yur flipfont.
Tho you always can mess with system font folder and change anything you want but don't forget to make a backup before anything.
And as for third party apps to do this um I don't know its just more fun to do such things manual !!
Sent from my SM-N9005 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

Works like a charm
this is EXACTLY what I was looking for for a long time.
this method changes the font EVERYWHERE. font changing applications only change the font in system and most of the apps stay the same (for arabic only)
thank you
---------- Post added at 07:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:13 PM ----------
now is there a way to make a combined font style to change both English and arabic fonts? combined or changing each alone?
or to make the question more clear, which font I should replace to change the english too?
because if I change it from the settings it will change the arabic too

[Font Request] Roboto Condensed APK

[Need Help] Missing default font suddenly

Hi all,
Suddenly my default font is missing after change theme and can not be restored. The font is bigger than what it should.
Could anyone pls help me?
Thanks in advance

Funny, I have no font menu item at all in the settings (EU L29 B152)... and can't even change it through the theme manager...
Did you install any theme?
Themes (especially Chinese ones) might corrupt the font faces used in the interface...

That happened to me when I tried a theme that changed the font. I don't remember what I did to fix it but after an hour trying to figure it out I remember the fix was so easy I called myself an idiot. If I remember what I did to fix it I'll let you know.

I indeed wasn't able to restore the default font after I installed this bad theme: Edward Returns
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=65618373&postcount=4
It replaces the default UI font with a silly DroidSansChinese.ttf font which hasn't all the accented letters there are in the Italian language...
No way to correct the problem installing any Huawei original theme, because those themes don't install any font at all!!!
So the only way I found was to modify the same previously installed dark theme replacing inside the .hwt compressed theme file the font "DroidSansChinese.ttf" with a Roboto-Medium.ttf font file renaming the Roboto file as the original "DroidSansChinese.ttf"...
Then I reinstalled the bad dark theme and I got all the Mate 8 user interface in an acceptable Roboto-Medium font face, however unfortunately things are not exactly the same as before...
Finally I reinstalled an original Huawei theme.
If someone found a better solution to restore the original Huawei font in an unrooted Mate 8 this will be much appreciated...
Thanks!

In the 183 themes, there are also two kinds of edward returns, I tried the v3.0.7. The font didnt change. Now if I want to change the theme, I rather check the container first. Does it contain fonts or not. If it does I prefer not to use/try it. Bad experienced.. hahaha..
I think I tried to change from the standard style and simple style and it works to restore the font.. maybe... I dont really remember.. but hesitate to try it again..

Your suggestion was very interesting, so I tried it..
But after switching to simple and then back to standard I found the same font face as I had before.
In my case I had previously applied a modified theme to restore the Helvetica font, so it's possible that other people might benefit from this method.
BTW, the bad theme was Edward Returns 1

I found a theme with acceptable font included
HI,
My Mate 8 (International version) default font changed too after applying a theme containing a Chinese font so after a day of search in several themes I found this theme that have a close to default font u can try it unless u want to root or factory reset you phone
Flat Emui theme :
http://goo.gl/BFc1eN
I hope this will help as the theme has many Emui versions with the last one working for me

There is a default font theme on the color of android M thread that can restore the font to the default.
