Hello,
I usually have no problems with fonts on Samsung devices. On S3 and N2, it was flawless but on my S4 (I9500) whenever i set any flipfont it says "The font is not available". Anybody has the same problem and hopefully solution?
Regards
Karim
Yes, same here. Not all fonts will work on the device. In a matter of fact the only fonts that will work, are the stock once.
That is not because of S4, but because of Android 4.2.2..
We've been coming up with different scenarios on how to get this to work. One dev made a Font APK Creator (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2251745). It's works great & does what it should, but for some reason Jelly Bean won't allow custom fonts. I've tried installing fonts through system/font & that was a no go. The only "custom" fonts that seem to work are the fonts purchased from the Play Store. Cross your fingers the devs figure this out :fingers-crossed:
Try the Apps Ifont. it had just updated and its work on S4

Worked for me, thanks!
Anyone have a Holo font by any chance?!? I *hate* the GS4 standard font, it's huge. I've change to Tahoma for right now, but to get the System fonts (e.g. those that show in Notifications) small enough, I have to use "Tiny" which is too small for the rest of the applications.

Just wanted to say that iFont did not work on my S4 (SGH-I337). I downloaded and set and set a new font. It requested superuser access and I granted it. Supposedly, it should have changed instantly, but didn't, so I rebooted the phone. The only thing that happened was notifications started coming through for the past 2 days and my current font (Rosemary) was changed to a plain, no style font, but still set to Rosemary. I uninstalled the app, changed the system font to Choco, then back to Rosemary and rebooted back to normal. I can't recommend iFont for this model.
iFont works like a charm. Thanks!

I'm not so sure about that really. Just read this: http://tinyurl.com/dysfukk
So for those of you that have installed iFont, uninstall it asap.
Edit: I see that there is another app that is called 'iFont' on Play Store. So the iFont you are talking about might not be the spyware.
But correct me if i'm wrong.
ifont
it worked on S4 and best font style is ubunto
:laugh:
Ifont does NOT work on my i9505 !
i use ifont , works perfectly , S4 i9500
I tried ifont on rooted S4 and it did not work at all. Luckily,I have found a way around this problem.
[Try this on your risk and I am not responsible for any damage that happens to your device.]
1. You will need to make nandroid backup of the rom, and this is a very important step, so don't skip it.
2. Download and install a root font installer like font changer [ free version will do ] or font installer from Play Store.
3. Open the app and apply the custom font,
4. Don't choose reboot [ You will not be able to boot the ROM]. Instead, boot to recovery.
5. Choose advance restore and choose system.
6. After restoring the system, the rom will boot normally.
7. You will notice that the font has changed.
hey guys take THIS it´s absolutly easy!!!!
argh I got an update on my s4 now ifont won't work due to some security update policy
Hi, I want to have transparet app drawer like in Android L iwth white icon.
I found this file extracted from L, but it can be installed over the original lollipop launcher and I want to have both.
Maybe someone can help me with that and try to edit this file to install with different name like launcherL to not replace Google Now Launcher ??
Editing the package name, my knowledge isn't too good on that, but I know it requires decompiling the APK and editing the Android Manifest file.
As to installing KitKat's Google Now version on Lollipop, I don't know how that works since Lollipop uses a different Google version. You can give it a try though. [emoji14]
Google Now Launcher (Google Search) is obfuscated, therefore you won't be able to change the package name.
If you wan't transparent app drawer on Google Now Launcher you have to install Google Search app from 4.4.4.
Hi, I am also testing what you want to do. I am being editing all "Velvet.apk" and try making the app drawer being transparent.
For the 'all apps' icon or launcher, there is no problem to edit it.
Maybe it is the way to install it as normal launcher like Nova etc. to not replace original one..
Can somebody please guide me how to change the fonts on my OnePlus One, or either let me know the custom ROM on which the fonts are available under settings for change.
Thanks in Advance.

If you are using CM12 (or 12.1) the theme engine let's you change fonts.
U can try this or this for many fonts.
Alternatively, there are standalone font packs for CM12 on the Play Store. Install them and under Settings > Themes set to use the font.
Hi! I just update my S6 to MM, but i'm not able to set a custom font anymore. With Lollipop i was able to install a custom font with IFont and apply it from screen settings. Now IFont still can install the font, but once you try to apply from settings, it says that it's not supported and it asks if you want to unistall it. Any advice/tip (phone isn't rooted, i don't want to root it)?
Thanks in advance
I have same issue but with Lollipop I hope someone can help us
no one can help?

Hi, I had the same issue. I solved it by downloading the fonts I wanted separately on Google. I then used ifont (my/my font section) to set the fonts. It worked perfectly. Hope this helps.
... don't work.
Same issue here. I just received the 6.0.1 update for my S6 Edge & I'm having the same issue. The update before this (security update for 5.1.1) iFont stopped working for me, so I tried HiFont and that worked. But now I've installed this latest update (Marshmallow 6.0.1) & neither iFont or HiFont work.
Same here. You know, I wouldn't even mind buying the fonts from Samsung's store if at least they got the fonts I want.
If rooted i' ve made something for fonts in MM6

I'm having the same issue as well, after the upgrade to marshmallow. Both ifont and Hifont do not work. The reviews for the apps reflect this, but mostly S7 users complaining.
Anyone notice that you can't disable the stock fonts using package disabler anymore?

The latest iFont has a workaround for this. I'm happily back to my custom font
Was sad that I couldn't install Roboto light after mm and iFont didn't seem to show it anywhere.
In Device, system, fonts, saw a lot of ttf including roboto light ttf. Put the ttf in Custom folder of iFont. Got iFont Donate version. Put it to Samsung mode, went to My Fonts section and successfully installed Roboto Light font again. All this on stock unrooted.
@episode96 bro what's the work around ..?I have latest ifont still not able to change font stock note 5 mm..
Your ifont fix is mostly covered by this.damn ad.screen that's trying to ruin any patience I have left....what new ifont workaround are you referring to? Thanks in advance for repeating for me

In iFont, put it to Samsung mode and it should apply most of the fonts available. If you want a specific font which is not available, use iFont donate version!
This method isn't working for me. Still getting unsupported font.

It doesn't work with all fonts. Try the fonts located in the internal memory of the device like I mentioned above. You can also keep trying other fonts in iFonts. Try changing modes of installation..
Otherwise root is the only solution!
