I was just testing fonts on my Android using an app called "Type Fresh" and bumped into a font called "Liberation", which I'm sure some of you are already familiar with.
I just wanted to point out that it looks incredibly good on Android, it feels native yet looks better than the original font Android ships with.
Attached are some screenshots, you can get the fonts here:

Important notice from Xiaomi
As more and more themes become developed for MIUI, we need to further ensure the copyrights of the designers to continue an environment conducive to both MIUI and the designers. Furthermore, as we are working on a platform to allow international designers to get paid for their theme designs, this new policy will help to protect the designer's design and instigate more quality themes . To do so, MIUI has decided to change some of the theme policies.
Please note, as of May 1st, the following policy will be fully enforced: All MIUI themes and theme components, in mtz file format, will need to be uploaded onto the MIUI themes (upload via designer.xiaomi.com). Any MIUI theme and theme components (i.e. download from forums, websites or other sources) that does not get uploaded into the MIUI theme apk, can no longer be applied onto the MIUI ROM. To specify, components in an mtz file format can include:
- Theme
- Lockscreen
- Icon
- Font
- Boot animation
- Avatars
If you are a designer and have current themes you want to share after May 1st please sign up for a designer.xiaomi.com account and upload your themes to the MIUI Themes apk.
I'm sorry I could be very off on this but to me this sounds like they are going to digitally sign themes and block sideloading

Perhaps. I doubt it will stop people, they'll just find workarounds & exploits.

Has any work around been found yet?
I remember at some point, can't remember when, maybe when V4 was still a little new, so I had a SGS2 at the time, they just introduced the forced login to their Xiaomi account to apply themes, even free ones.
Well, some modified versions of the theme apk appeared quite quickly to allow to apply them without login in.
So I guess something will be done about that too.
I've owned a couple of smartphones, but there has never been official support for all these devices I've owned. There was a shabby port for i9000 but it sucked and was borked.
Not to mention it comes in only a few languages.
So what is MIUI?
Just goes to shoe what kind of company MIUI is, I hope they continue carrying on what they're doing, then miui users will certainly see what most of saw a long time ago! Selfish thieves.

I have been using a great font replacement app from the play store for some time:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kapp.ifont
It may not have the snappiest title but it includes a huge amount of fonts that all work on Samsung Galaxy devices including the Tab Pro 8.4 and you don't need root access either. The pro version of the app will even sideload fonts you find from elsewhere.
I would recommend the SegoeUI based fonts as they look incredibly crisp on the Tab Pro 8.4
I never new about this app but its great just installed it and using the armani font - I will install this app on all my devices - thank you !

Have you checked out Fontster? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.chromium.fontinstaller
From my Pro Tab 8.4
Big ups, man. I've been thinking about changing fonts and this program is exactly what I need. I especially like this program because it allows you to change the font even if you're not rooted. I haven't decided if I'm going to root my tablet or not so iFont is better than Fontster for me.
I see nothing wrong with the fonts loaded, do these just provide a library to choose from?

iFont shows a huge list of alternative fonts, you select what you want and install. Dead easy.
After updating the theme store on my Galaxy S6 Edge+, I lost all my downloaded themes. These include the ironman, avenger themes, etc. How can the themes not show up on my account? Am I missing something? Any help would be really appreciated....
No same thing here

Is there any way to bring those back?
No idea. Waiting for a reply

Well after doing what you mentioned, whenever I am trying to go to theme store, its asking me to update to the latest version...
I updated to the latest version of the themes store. Then, you do have to find the themes you had, and they will say they cost money, but if you click into them, there will only be a download button, and it will let you download without having to pay again.

Thanks fine, but there are certain themes that are not available in the theme store now. Like the avenger series. But, I had all the themes in my account. So what do I do now?

When I go to theme store and then to "MENU" there is no "BUY" option, but there is a "PURCHASED" option. From there i have updated all my purchases. But still under the "ALL" option I do not find any of the avengers themes....
Weird, if u logged into same GMAIL account where once you download it , it have to be there ! You can find pas2001 post Avengers Themes and add then manually then.

Even pas2001 had missing his avengers theme after the update. I think samsung purposely wants to remove the avengers themes off your account.

Happened to me each time i visit Google Play using Edge 6+, so now I get my apps from elsewhere, cuz I had to do Android Recovery 3 times within 3 weeks, each time all my data get wiped out cuz gotta do factory reset. I am sure for 6+ phones users, each time we goto Google Play, we gave them permission to frisk our phone, takeover our phones and when we logged out from G_P_, our phone become autobots. Also I can't install MX Player. 6+ won't accept other Launchers permanently either. This phone is so disappointingly frigid. Actually I don't know why is Samsung and Google Play doing these to its loyal customers. Not only that, the video player is from the stone ages-it won't allow sequential play, so after each music video, i had to punch the play button for the next music video. My soul gets ripped everyday I am reminded I bot a bitter lemon. Oh yeah , I called up Samsung Technical Support regarding MX Player and the non sequential Play, and the unfriendly visit to Google Play, they said it's for my phone's security. Suddenly I feel my phone has become their property. I can't wait for someone to come up with a good and stable root, I can't wait to cut loose from G_P_ and Samsung's apron strings.
Samsung reply for missing marvel themes
Hi!
Are there any raccoon emojis or stickers available anywhere? They seem hard to come by even though there's like, every other freaking animal, and I'd like do have a full set. It would be super awesome if anyone knew where I could download a set! Or if possible, I'd be more than happy to donate to someone who could create such a thing If it matters, I am using gboard but not opposed to the samsung keyboard at all. Thanks in advance!
