[How-to] How to change the font ?

hi everyone .
I want to know is that possible to change the nexus font ?

I want to know too
I try to replace DroidSans.ttf and DroidSans-Bold.ttf but no visible change after reboot...

just download font flasher from the market and follow its instructions.

I want the browser to be capable of displaying the proper font of a website, as intended by the webpage writer. But all the browser does is to use the default Android font. Is there a way to change that? In S60, I could created a directory in the SD card /resource/font and then copy the .ttf files from my Windows PC to the folder. Do you know what directory Android uses?

How does Android file system work (i want to replace some grahpics of a installed ap)

So i know the file name, but when i search for thoose files in Android they are not there. So where do my installed apps go in the Android file system? Do they stay in the apk? Can i modify them there? I tried modifying the apk before installing it wich resulted in a failed installation

Download root explorer
Search for the widgets .apk in /data/data or /system/app/
Copy to your sdcard and open it on your pc with winrar
Go to the res/drawable(-hdpi) and edit the .png files you want
Put them back in the .apk file and push the file to the destinated folder using android sdk.

[Q] Is there any way to install other language fonts?

Hi everyone,
I've finally rooted my phone and installed Endymion's awesome rom. It's been working great so far, except that it doesn't display chinese characters (although it has chinese IME, in which the characters only show up as boxes)
Is there any way to install the font manually? Tried searching the forums with no luck.
Thanks in advance!

I have no experience with Chinese characters, but I'm guessing some app like Font Installer (sorry, can't post links yet) should allow you to find a font that includes them.

The best way is
1) Download any Chinese Unicode font
2) download Es file explore form market
3) put font to your sd card
4) open Es file explorer, goto setting and root options,
5) check mount system rw
6) rename font as DroidSansFallback.ttf, and copy
7) now go to system, fonts folder, and paste.
It will ask to replace, press yes. Reboot and enjoy
