Hi guys,
I've been trying to make custom font work on my phone and finally found a solution. Here's the link if anyone is interested.https://www.reddit.com/r/GalaxyS8/comments/7n1jqg/tricks_how_to_install_any_font_on_your_s8/
Now I need some help on merging two fonts into one if that makes any sense. Basically I have this font file that I love for its Chinese characters but hate the alphabets and symbols. I am a complete noob on this. Would someone be able to help? I have both fonts and can send them to you. It would be tremendous if someone can help. I'd love to donate for a case of beer for your work!:fingers-crossed:

Hi...there is an app released on play store which can help you to change the font without root or substratum.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.amjadroid.fontsapp
Try this.
You can import .ttf font file and covert it into font of your phone. Its free.
Currently using it on my s9plus.

Well, my problem is not executing the font but more about customizing a font. Thanks for the info anyway.

excuse me,may I butt in & inquire about d topic.Sorry but I can't understand that "rooting-the-phone" thing.But I also want to be able to change the font of my PPC phone.Are there any articles about this topic in this forum which I could refer to?Could you or anyone else help me regarding this query of mine?Thank you no matter what.
Rooting gives you superuser permission over everything. There is a video by Applepwns on Youtube about what rooting is. Also thetechtemple has a video on how to change fonts if i remember correctly after rooting. If you need instructions, on how to root, just google how to root. Hope this helps. If you have further question, feel free to ask away!
thanks for getting back do you know where i can get a harry potter font i dont know why they took off all the ones on android market thanks

No. And if you did, you couldn't flash the font like that. It has to be done manually, or through an app that does it manually for you. All the app does is replace the font files in the sys folders. If you are looking for a simple way to change fonts, Absolute System is a great app. I'm not sure if it has the Harry Potter font specifically, but it does have almost 200 fonts to choose from.
^He did a good job of answering the question.

I love this font but cannot seem to find it anywhere except in the Alliance Rom framework which is not available (as far as I know) for 5.1.1. Does anyone have an APK or know of one of the downloadable font packs that has this font contained within? Thanks in advance :silly:

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.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-8/themes-apps/mate-8-marshmallow-coloured-theme-emui-t3420178
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=uk.co.olabs.theme.fontreset
This did the job for me.
Can we make these yet? I tried a few times with signing both the font and the apk but Samsung settings keeps rejecting it.
Curious if anyone has figured out a working method yet? Possibly with an RRO theme, edit the default fonts?
Edit: I remember seeing that Samsung themes can inherit a TTF as a font, but this means we can't use another theme with it. So I am thinking RROs.
I with I knew how to do this. I have been researching for days ..

I don't know the exact meaning, but that's the only type of font Samsung allows you to install and use.
I guess it's like a regular .ttf file with some modifications - again, I don't really know.
All I know is that FlipFont make us all suffer. I wish Samsung knew how to treat customers. This is Android, not iOS - why locking us?
I'm using these on my s8, with both a Samsung theme and a Substratum theme https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=72112717&postcount=24
If we are talking about regular ttf fonts, I'm using the San Francisco font which I pulled out of apples macos installer
