doesn't work bcause my lptop is 32bit :crying:
Please upload an. apk here if you did one, because not everyone is able to do it.
Thanks for this wonderful tool For some reason it doesn't longer seem to work with the Galaxy S4. Installed my APK, see the Font in the font selection menu but when I try to change to it it says that the font isn't on the device.

Thanks, I've tried it but nothing happens. With this one the font name doesn't even show up in the font list.

Is it possible for you to remove SamsungSans.apk from your phone and install the attached one here(font changed). I don't know whether you will be able to uninstall samsungsans

Tried it. The font is listed, but getting the font is not available error again.
Works great as far as far creating the apk, installing & having it listed as a font. However, when I select the font it says, "This font is not available."
Edit: Tried using Root Explorer & moved "example.tff" to system/fonts & still getting the same error. Also tried moving the font apk I created into that folder, installed from there & got the error, again. "This font is not available."

Really? I tried several fonts downloaded from Google Play, but non of them working so far ... maybe cuz i tried free fonts, not the payed ones. The funny thing is that i followed the "Get more fonts" link in Settings/My Device/Display/Fonts ... shouldn't they all be compatable with the S4 if u follow that official link? Strange ... now how should i know which one will work or not before purchase it?
As far as i get it this is not a S4 issue, it's because Android 4.2.2 ...
Can anyone port this theme to our device, please?

Ok, I'll give it a try
Sorry, got installation aborted after I did all the changes instructed. Maybe someone with more experience can do it.

Thank you for trying :thumbup:
Well, I have modified the default.zip as the instruction said. Then I flashed it successfully but it didn't change anything. Just the stock icons and the stock layout appear.
When I look into the folders, it shows that this will just simply change a the icons in the statusbar and in the notification panel. The background, the live tile thing, as we see it on the screenshot, is not included in the file "makingports.zip".
Correct me if I'm wrong but this seems to be an ICS theme.
Hi,
I have modded the framework-res from the D802 to cut down the Navigation Bar (half size for now)
I'am new to modding these things but for me the nav bar was way to big
here is the file:
framework-res.apk
(File updated - landscape mode fixed - pls redownload)
No installer form me, i prefer ADB
Make a Backup from your existing framework-res.apk
Copy the modded framework-res.apk to your G2 D802 in system/framework overwiriting the existiong one
Only tested on the D80210a-EUR-XX firmware.
DOWNLOADS:

Hi, Please help for LG G2 D802 Asia version, code D80210B_00, Thanks
Thanks for your work (even tho i have a different model).Just so you know tho,it will only work in the firmware you have now,you need to do that in every firmware release.Im saying that in order to save some from a bootloop.
I would like to edit my framework-res for the T-Mobile D801 version. Would you mind posting some directions for me to follow? Thanks!
I just tested this on my D802 Asia version model and it's working fine. However, landscape mode reverts the nav bar back to its original size. Would you be kind enough to fix this and also look into any optimisations you could make for the D802 Asian version as well, seeing as this is for the Euro model?
Do let me know how I can help by contributing any system files from my phone.
As i mentioned in the first Posting, i'am new to framework modding, but i do my best, currently i search
for the landscape fix (i changed the right things, seems that i have missed something....)
I've done this mod while i don't want to use an xtra app for this, also, i havent found an app that
works properly (including Plug & Pop)
Modding these files is truly an easy step.
I'll post a very little guide for the nav bar size later, there are many other guides outhere to learn such stuff
This mods can be done by everybody ...

Worked perfectly on my Asian 802. Used solid Explorer to replace the file and it crashed but did the job! Thanks a lot

Just noticed that the dock position is not adjusted. It stays high in the original position.

can you guys give us a screenshot ?!
Doesn't seem smaller?
I have replaced the file with root Explorer and rebooted but can't seem to see a difference.
---------- Post added at 10:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:10 PM ----------
it could just be 3 small dots in the bottom.
this mod cuts the navbar down to half size, this can be done easy by everyone.
Look in the Guide for theme modding: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2455860
there is a post from me how this mod is done.

If anyone gets this working for T-Mobile please share. This would be awesome. The nav bar takes up much precious screen space

Hey guys I was looking for some advice on changing the system font on my Google Pixel. I rooted the phone yesterday and I'm happy with the default ROM and Google launcher. With previous phones I've used iFont but with the Pixel I get an "error 7" when trying to set a new font.
I'm pretty sure you can change fonts with substratum.

Thanks for the reply. I downloaded that app but don't see any options for fonts. Is it something you've used before?

I haven't messed with it but I know it's capable of changing fonts. I think it requires a compatible rom so stock rooted might not cut it. You'll have to dig around to find out more about substratum. I'm sure there's lots of info out there.

Try this thread

Also, here are a lot of fonts. You can't use the zip they are in though. You'll have to use a Pixel compatible zip.

Thanks for the reply. I've had a look through that forum. The font I want to use I don't have all the different types for (bold, italic etc. Can I just copy my font multiple times, rename it to all those file names, flash it and have the same font universally around my phone?

I downloaded the Font_Soma_Bold_Taller_v1 file from the first link. It said just to replace the fonts inside with your own and flash. It's under the Pixel sub forum so I guess it's one that would work. My question was just if I only have one type of the font can I copy the same one over Italic, bold etc and just have the same font universally all over the phone?
Also would I rename my font to roboto-black.ttf, RobotoCondensed-regular.ttf etc?

In theory, you can do that. Of course make a backup of your original fonts. I'm not sure how short you are of the correct fonts.
Hello guys,
I enabled my font using fastboot command then copied the fonts to hwtheme folder and everything works fine.
My issue is that when I apply the new fonts, my zooper widgets all lose their custom fonts and adopt the new one breaking the aesthetics and even the icons.
The attached picture depicts my problem. The first image is while using the default font while the second is when I apply a custom font.
Any suggestions please?
Thank you.
Did you find the solution?
