Hello
My S5830 is on stock rom 2.3.5. I wanted to change my system font. From "Font style" I downloaded an Arabic font pack. Now I have many fonts to set as system fonts.
But when I set any of them and reboot the system, no font change happen and system font is still the default font.
What is the solution? Why does not any change happen?
Is your device rooted? If not, then you'd need to do so in order to change system fonts. Kindly specify which app you are using to change the font.

To change the default Persian font of my device,
I used iFont and its My Font, but no change happened.
Also from "Font style" of my device, I downloaded fonts from google, but no change happened.

Hi There,
You will need to Root Your Device first and then try to install custom fonts.

Well what are you trying to do i mean you want to change the language pack eg: Froem English To Persian Or you want to change the font style only.
If you want to change the font style only Try Pencil fonts app have checked it personally it Works..

Hi,
if you rooted the SGA, backup the content of /system/fonts folder;
then substitute (use ghost commander) the original fonts with the content of Arabic font pack you downloaded and set the appropriate permission;
the reboot the phone and enjoy

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

Download ApkInstaller from Playstore and install fonts as many as you want..
korean language disappeared.
then using font changer
my jindle fire hd was bricked.
thanks.
install Korean font
Somehow Amazon drop the Korean font after update 7.2. Every Korean characters look like blank boxes.
You need to download some free fonts. I recommend Naver or Daum font.
hangeul.naver.com/font
or
v.daum.net/link/1795398
Choose the regular font not the bold font. I choose NanumGothic.ttf
You need to rename NanumGothic.ttf to HYGothicMedium.ttf
Using root explorer, copy it to /system/font and change permission rw r r.
reboot KFHD.
You can see Korean characters.
I hope this help you.

after flashing ROMs default font is set.
i always have to change it with rom toolbox to my favourite font.
question:
is there a way to change the system ROM font? (creating flashable zip, mod system.ui, mod framework-res.apk ...).
i only want to know where it has to be changed.
i googled but only got links for font apk´s on playstore ...
thx in advance

try: settings>display>font
Or use this app. I'm using it on CM11 flawlessly:laugh:
Does anyone know how I can change the font?
Tried downloading the iFont app, getting it to see my custom font (just Google's Product Sans) and create a font theme. The Themes Manager recognised it but then said it wasn't compatible. Asked it to use anyway as is and in a compatible version but the font still hasn't changed.
Tried downloading the EMUI enabler and that seemed to enable fonts but it doesn't recognise any apart from the iFont theme.
Thanks

However it appears you cannot simply drop the TTF file in the Themes folder and the app recognise it.
