Changing fonts - HTC Aria Themes and Apps

Is there any good way to install alternate fonts? I'm looking to change fonts for home screen labels and in other apps.
Running FR006 on a rooted Aria.

I read an article on androidpolice.com today talking about this. Haven't tried it yet tho!

It has 148 different fonts. Just flash it like how you're flashing a rom through clockwork. I've been fooling around with it this evening and it works well. Though some fonts are a bit small due to our resolution I suppose. I do like the Ubuntu and Sony fonts. Right now I'm using the Neotech.
I have some pics on my blog for the Ubuntu and Neotech fonts: http://droidappsreview.blogspot.com/2010/11/so-i-was-bored-today.html
Btw. The font flashing changes ALL the fonts in the phone. I don't think you can do different fonts for different parts or maybe you can? lol..idk ><

This is great, but there are a couple of things that are still way to big (lockscreen, check boxes and radio button e.t.c). If someone can point me to where I can get the images sizes for MDPI I am happy to resize them, I just don't know what size they are supposed to be :S

same here... check boxes, radio buttons, text boxes and dropdowns are HUGE!
and could you post a screenshot so we know what has been changed... like the 3G and signal icons? Mine didn't change to the look like the ones in the thread you posted.
He wrote that uploaded theme is wrong and upload the MDPI late on. For those who don't know the size of MDPI .png you can view them from your original MDPI folder in framework-res.apk
I can help with resize too
I have been watching this thread for a while to see if it would be updated, but no luck...if anyone has any luck porting or getting the proper size icons and whatnot, I would be very interested in the theme...
oh... i thought the new one was already uploaded... i guess i'll just have to have some patience then

The status bar is the right resolution, but pretty much everything else is still too big. I am looking at resizing the rest myself, but I am having trouble with the .9 files. I have been reading tutorials but still, very confusing...

Use the LCD density changer app, I'd upload but I can't right now. If you set it to 120 everything will look better. Try that.
many of u have seen the screen shots and u kno it works. the key factor is that this theme ( personal experience here ) works best on a 2.2 ( froyo ) rom.
yes some things are still out of wack.. but the status bar and notifications flow almost perfectly, the rest can be changed by the user anyways.

No longer supported.

Very useful to have an overview, thanks. You can add chinacat.ttf as well. My wife uses this, works great.

i would love the Nokia font...
Exactly what I was looking for.
I have tried Fairy Dust, Magic School and Nosferatu but none of them works with non English characters (i.e: ț ă ș).
I was suprised to find that these work on my HD2 running Froyo
I tried Worstfeld, Contrary Mary, Alex, and settled on Nosferatu...Thanks a lot
I really would like this rounded font that I see in a lot of the "post your homescreen" posts. (please see attachment)
if this is running on 2.2 milestone?
make the font bigger
Many thanks
I’m using “Sony Sketch” and it looks great. However little too small so how do I make the font size bigger?
Tried “spares parts” but doesn’t work and app called “Font Size” from the market is not free, so there any FREE APP that allows you to change Font Size or is there a way to do this with ADB?
if I actually want a smaller font.
and it can be used in all applications. eg its Home screen or browser.
thanks before n after. ur fonts tricky working fine. on my milestone 2.2 nice sharing. :thumbs:

Just to let you know
Hi Love your thread
Have been mucking about with fonts all day.
What it doesn't mention in the thread is that you can goto any free font web site and download ANY .ttf file (as a zip, then extract and drop into the .fontchanger folder)
this means that the font choice is endless!!!! oh and be seriously cool.
Hope you don't mind, had to share the good news with my fellow streakies on the Dell Streak forum.
Thanks for the post has made my weekend (I know sad lol !)

How about a font thread?

There doesn't seem to be a central place to browse for new fonts so what's everyone using and where did you get it?
Ooh, I like this idea.
I'm currently using Comfortaa (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=764333) as was included in stiCk.E's BlaCk.Efied Theme (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=831601).
The font is by aajohan on DeviantArt (http://aajohan.deviantart.com/art/Comfortaa-font-105395949)
I think it's pretty swell, except for the questionmark-box issue mentioned at the end of the first linked thread.
Well I guess we're the only ones...
there´s couple of font threads already..but right, not one that includes all-in-one.
I m looking for a new lockscreen font only got tired of the clock....so testing some

Beautiful Widgets: HTC Sense UI Skin
Woah nice job! I would totally use this, although lately I've been running without the superclock, due to the fact that there's already a clock on the lock screen and the top right corner. But wow, you don't see alot of skins of this quality within the BW app! Nice!
One thing I've been looking for is a superclock skin with the same font as the D3 lock screen. My fave font! Modern and simple.

Do you know the name of the font used? or where i could look in the system dump to find it? I can make one using that font.
Edit: Nevermind I Found It.

Heres a new one with the same font that is used on the lockscreen. Enjoy!
Not bad, are the skins hard to make? I've been thinking about making my own BW Skins and Themes. Just don't know if I have the patience to bust out Photoshop working so much.

It pretty much depends on what you are doing, this took me about 3 hours because of the level of detail involved, I took the system dump, extracted the apk files until i found the .9.png that was used for the widget backgrounds, and i copied every single line and gradient down the pixel, so that takes a while. But many of my others where fairly simple. It also depends on your level of skill with Photoshop and you knowledge of the tools, I've been using Photoshop for many years, so I'm very familiar with it.
Plus loading it on the phone every time you make a small change can be a little annoying at times...

I'll give it a try eventually, lol.. I've got 6 years experience as a freelance designer and developer. I've just gotten to the point where if it isn't making me money I don't like to open up the programs.
This is now available to download from the application! I have also created a gingerblur toggle skin to match, which is also available! Enjoy!
Thank you so much for the skin. It looks great!
1 question though. My weather skin is still in stock and doesn't look like the one you are posting.
Would you mind posting your weather skin as well?
Thanks!

[FONT][MAGISK] Google Sans Text Beta

Google Sans Text Beta
In Google Design’s Best of 2019 page, Google used a new font called "Google Sans Text" (which is in beta as per the font name).
The page and the look of the font can be viewed here.
I really liked the leaner look of the font on my OnePlus 6 as compared to Google Sans and would like to share it with the community.
Currently there are only the Regular, Bold, Italic, Medium, BoldItalic and MediumItalic versions of the font and I could not find other variants.
I have made the basic correction of fixing the colon on lockscreen clock (Char U+EE01).
Two Options for attached files below:
Replace Full body fonts - MAGISK Google Sans Text Beta font.zip
Replace Headline fonts only - MAGISK Google Sans Text Beta Headline only.zip
Please remove other font modules, if installed, first before installing mine.
I have only tested and used English language on OnePlus 6 and found the font to be satisfactory for daily use.
Big thanks to @nongthaihoang for improving the font! Do check out his thread for multiple combinations and variations of the font along with the original Google Sans.
Can you make it so that only the headline font is replaced?

You sounds like a Vietnamese. I like that.
What do you think of helping me maintain the font?
I'll teach you everything I know so you can took over me. I'm looking for someone like that.
Btw, I like to have GS + GS text on my phone. It can't be better.

I love Vietnam! It's a beautiful country.
Your offer is very tempting and I would love to learn and help out more but currently I am going through a very busy phase at work. May I reach out to you after March, if you are still looking for an intern then?
I really like GS as well. Used it for the longest time on my phone. Lato is my favorite on PC. But I also like the curvier and lighter look of GS Text. Makes text more readable for me, while keeping the spirit of GS. It's a subjective thing, that's why there are millions of fonts and that's the beauty of customization.

- Thank you for you kind words about Vietnam.
- I took it as a Yes. Contact me whenever you have time my telegram.
- I'm using Ubuntu Linux and Lato is my favorite font too. What a coincidence!
I like GS for headline and your GSText for content. Can you send me your font (the untouched one) so I can make it fully compatible with android? I'll send it back to you when it's done.

Have you selected the default font before installing the mod? Did you install any other font mods or maybe themes before installing mine that have not been removed? The clock font does not seem to have changed at all, judging by the digit for 2. Can you test with the attached file and let me know please? Thanks.

Nah. There is no need for a separate zip. Everything will be fine with the new update.
You should also remove what so-called "colon issue" in the OP. It does not even exist.
The font should work from the day you install it until your phone die.
Yes, new 0.2 works without errors I think. Colon on lockscreen ok. Thanks!
is it possible to download it in .ttf or .otf format ?
