how to use font installer? I downloaded it, installed and nothing changes...
sorry for my noob question..

for touchwiz baserom only download flipfonts and install like orginal app.
go to setting / display / font style and select your font.
flip font can install on any galaxy family phone. ( means if have flipfont for galaxys2 can use on mini )
search xda for flipfont and alsow a tutrial for making flipfont on windows...

I uswd rom to tool box its good. Long list of fonts to use and also a preview of said fonts! Romtoolbox has many other features like ad blocker bootanimation changer and loads more

Here is how I changed my font from stock to Roboto
1. Root your device
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1454112
2. download your Font onto your tab
https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/design/Roboto_Hinted_20111129.zip (roboto - ics 4.0 font)
3. install any font changer app, run, select font, BOOM delicious new font appears
Roboto is amazing. Love this font. I use it in all my apps now. Looks 100% better on 99% of interfaces (for some reason looks a bit squished in gmail)

does anyone know how to change the font of the clock in the status bar? I hate the font that Samsung is using.

if you change trough update.zip i think (CMIIW) thats dangerous but if you know that samsung default has font changer in setting but the one i dont understand is how to add more cause i had copy and paste into system/font with root exp but no luck and the font not showing on list

Just a quick update on what I have recently found is the best solution to getting Roboto on this device.
Don't use a font changing app like Font Changer or Font Installer, etc. Specifically those two don't overwrite the default fonts correctly & that's why you will see weird looking fonts sometimes (gmail app for example).
Best & Easiest Solution (requires root):
1. Download this rar file.
2. Extract the three .ttf files and copy over to your device.
3. Copy them to the system\fonts and overwrite the originals (I will give you a link to the originals).
4. If you want to go back to stock, download this file and do steps 2 & 3 again.

Anyone tried this on ICS? I did it but saw zero change

Need MIUI ICS Fonts

Hi Friends,
I need MIUI v4 ICS fonts file. Does any one able to make mtz font files.
We have one for ICS concepts.
Regards
Edit: Install ROM toolbox from play store and install any font on ICS/JB ROM.

can't you just take it from a miui rom

not sure if it's changed,but last I seen the fonts on miui v4 doesn't change might be device specific though.

Are these for MIUIv4. I understand that MIUI GB fonts wont work in MIUIv4.

Right now there seems to be no way of changing the font in MIUI v4 using the theme manager. The only way I know of is to flash the fonts through ADB or CWM.

Many of them work, though some of them not. I will soon make them all compatible with MIUI V4.

Can you provide me a link to just one? I'm not keen on downloading the 70MB+ concept ICS theme just to figure out how the font works. I've tried renaming the fonts to roboto, etc. but that doesn't seem to work for me.

Yes I have made separately working mtz fonts for MIUI V4:laugh: See Here at my blog:
http://droidviews.com/2012/download-miui-v4-fonts-collection/

Thanks for the link. I tried applying the iPhone 5 font but it didn't work. I'm thinking it may be a device-specific issue (I'm using a SGS). Hmmm, I'm determined to get to the bottom of this.
Edit: why is DroidSansFallback.ttf so big (14.6MB)??

Add new font to font list or just install it

you can use https://play.google.com/store/apps/...yLDIxMiwiY29tLmpydW1teS5mb250Lmluc3RhbGxlciJd

for custom fonts @ settings->display->fonts, u rip the fonts.apk from supressed and push it. it has a few fonts and is considerably smaller in size.
regards,
achyut.

i didnt change at all or changed to something else ??
note that different versions of android [and different ROMS use the AndroidClock****.ttf files differently]
i see u r using RR 5.8.3 so change the lockscreen font to "Default" after flashing the file..

first I flashed my font file that I have attached on the post.
Then I flashed your lockscreen file.
It didnt work.
can you try flashing my font file and experience the problem yourself.
You can always flash the stoick font to revert.
I placed my font in your zip after changing their original name to the one in your zip.

sorry man..
