Fonts on the S4

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

Hi,
Same problem for me except with fonts I bought on the Play Store or this one Working fine ^^

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

Custom font after MM update

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

Me too ive been trying all sorts of fonts,flipfonts hi font ifont and it doesnt not how can we fix this?

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!

Trial Theme Remover on S8/S8+

Hi guys its Codex better known as Alpha_Killer previously Known as Network_Delta[emoji14]We have known that yet there is no method to get rid of trial themes on S8/S8+ unless we Disable ThemeCenter .apk or Rename it from Themecenter.apk to Themecenter.apk.bak which will disable themes ... well today it will change i have been wanting to crack the this theme thing and i think i finally did it.. Method is given below:
<Mod Edit>
Now get into Theme Center you should be able to change your wallpapers, icons, aods and themes but a drawback your trial theme wont appear in the themes Area but the fact remains you got your theme applied and can change wallpapers etc.
Its better than having the Theme Center disabled right??
This method has been tested by a bunch of people and confirmed working....
This Method Works Fully on the Note 8 Ports

You just now found this out? Lol been doing this for a while. Was hoping you actually dev'd an app somehow to auto do it. Oh well

Silly question, but presumably I need to be rooted to do this?

Lol. He really thinks he cracked something. Have one better for him. Instead of renaming to bak. He could have just cut and paste from trial json to user folder and reboot. So he would have access to the themes at will. He only can't update them cause of course they haven't been paid for. People have been doing this since the themes started few years back.
Same principle for icon trials
Sent from my phone

any way to do it without root? Theme killer did it for a while but I forget how they did.

Without root
1. . Goto https://seap.samsung.com/license-keys/how-to
2. Sign in with your Samsung account as developer
3. Generate Standard Knox SDK key (Enterprise License Management)
4. Install ThemeControl app (APK file will be in sdcard/themeGalaxy)
4. Enable Device admin rights to the app
5. Enter your key and activate the Knox SDK ELM License
Now the Theme store can be enabled / disabled from the app.
Simply, Follow this guide to get ELM key
http://project-vivid.weebly.com/how-to-get-elm-key.html
Once after you disabled the packages, if you install new theme/reboot the device The theme center service may get start. So when it does, enable and disable the theme store again.

To remove a theme from the keyboard you need to remove or rename the apk that ends with inputlanguage.apk from the folder data/overlays/currentstyle you may replace the theme with another on just the keyboard if you put another themes *inputlanguage.apk into the currentstyle folder and rename it the same as the original you just replaced. Then reboot. I've attached a couple of images showing renaming the original apk then rebooting and you can see i am back to stock keyboard

[Theme][9.0] AMOLED BLACK BLUE - unofficial Samsung PIE THEME

I have tested my theme only on my S8 but it should work on all SAMSUNG PIE 9.0 ROMs.
Because Samsung permit only official Themes from Theme Store on our S8, you need a rooted phone with a patched Theme Center.
Installation:
1. Install the Amoled Black Blue Theme apk (AMOLED.BLACK.BLUE_Badowl.apk).
2. Reboot to Recovery (TWRP) and flash Amoled Black Blue Theme zip (AMOLED.BLACK.BLUE_Badowl.zip).
All previous installed official Themes will change to trial Themes, but with patched Theme Store it makes no difference.
3. Reboot and activate the Amoled Black Blue Theme in the Samsung Theme Store.
4. Wallpaper settings are not possible at the moment with unofficial Themes, because its blocked and I didn't found a workaround. But you can set the Home- and Lockscreen manually.
5. If you want the Lockscreen pattern theming you must apply a official Theme and then the Amoled Black Blue Theme. If you switch from Stock Theme to Amoled Black Blue Theme its blocked.
Enjoy!

No, you need a trial patched theme store, like on Oreo. My script make only the theme in the theme store visible, to activate it.
Samsung blocks unofficial themes on S8/N8 PIE, only official themes are supported, visible in the theme store.

The theme should work on all PIE Roms with One UI V1.0, but I have only tested it on my S8.
Install only the theme apk and check if it work. If not flash the zip, I know the theme block is in S8 and Note8 roms.
For the theme store I don't know if it work on Note9, make a backup before you flash the zip and try.

Wingfonts, here's a link to the download.
You have to put the exe on your computer (which you will find in the wingfonts folder on your phone after installing the apk. Connect with usb and usb debug and run the exe on your computer, install theme, select font. Then restore your current theme after you select font.
Or you can use synergy and substratum lite theme maker where some themes have font package overlays.
