MidnightFonts: By OldMidnight
This is my first attempt at making a Magisk module. Learned Loads, really enjoyed it, can't wait to keep going!
This module allows you to easily and systemless-ly change fonts on your device. With a couple terminal commands and a reboot your device can become YOUR device. No need for a custom recovery or unused font zips taking up storage space. The module cleans up after itself meaning you'll never need to have multiple font zips on standby!
How it works
1) Open a terminal (termux, terminal emulator, etc)
2) Grant root access(if you're using termux, make sure to cd to the root directory at this point!)
3) Type cd then
Code:
fonts
4) Follow instructions and select a font
5) Reboot and enjoy!
Make sure to hard reboot your device by holding the power button for 10 seconds after applying a font!
Request Fonts in *Our Telegram Chat Here* for them to be added to the module. The font's list below will be updated regularly with included fonts. I intend to keep the module size to a minimum so unused fonts will be removed when appropriate.

Format for a submission
Considering there are over two hundred fonts available in @gianton 's post, requests will need to follow a certain format to save time and me a headache!
Code:
1) name of font as written in the post linked
2) post out of the 4 available its on
All locally stored fonts are kept in /sdcard/MidnightFonts
The module requires magisk v15 minimum.
The module uses font's available here, credits to @gianton
credits also to @Zackptg5, his unified-hosts-adblock script was a godsend for a complete newbie to Magisk module making like me!

A quick notice, till now I've been running this module with substratum themes applied and got no major hiccups, but I'm no longer doing so. This is just to point out that I'm not OFFICIALLY supporting substratum but I haven't noticed anything messing up during my use. Update coming soon!

Bad idea.
Unless you want 100000 fonts on your phone.
Just extract this package to your sdcard. And you can use it almost everywhere.
You can use these fonts in your favorite operating system Linux, Mac OSX, or Windows as well.

Last package is uploading now
have fun guys. Now unlocked for everyone! Sorry for the issues.
GREAT WRK
keep it up
THANKs
Thanks I will!
I was just asking because there is a collection of flashable zips for fonts on another thread.
Best place to keep these is on your SDcard. Just think. If you flash a new ROM you have to install all those fonts again... You don't want that do you?
Now you have plenty of fonts to choose from. I suggest pick your favorites and make your own update.zip
My file statistics show 200 downloads yesterday

Hello.. I have downloaded font zips in Rom Manager on my Nexus s with ICS 4.0.3...
But when i reboot in recovery and flash, it says that it has been completed, and i reboot, but its the same old roboto font anyway..
Why? anyone knows it?
It's because of the updater script. Our mount points are different
There should also be some symlinks for the roboto fonts. I can upload a correct META-INF folder in a few and you can replace the one that came with the zip

As an alternative, you could also grab Font Changer from the market.

Is it possible to get Segoe WP 7 font and helvetica font for ics then? I have downloaded the zip from rom manager, but its not possible to extract the fonts from there?

Yes, definitely possible.
Actually, what might be an easier route for you is, download Font Installer by JRummy. (Market).
It comes with a whole bunch of fonts including Segoe (called zegoe there) and Helvetica (Helvetiker or something). There, it'll let u preview and apply.
Fergies method is the best, and gives you most control, but try this if you're not comfortable yet finding the rom manager download, opening with 7zip and replacing folders.

About
Eviltheme (Enhanced VillainROM Theme Engine) is an Android system modification platform meant for use with custom Android recoveries.
It allows modification of application resources without the need to replace the whole app or install a new operating system.
Eviltheme is based on the VRTheme Engine from 2011, though versions 3.x.x and up heavily differ from the original VillainROM code.
Disclaimer
Eviltheme is provided to you without warranty. You are free to try it on your device, but you are doing so at your own risk. I will not be responsible for bricked devices, wiped devices, etc.
Features
Automatic systemless mode with version 3.x.x+ (Magisk required, version 13.1+ recommended)
System mode fallback in case Magisk is not present
Supports both Dalvik and ART platforms
Smart bytecode refresh (delete classes.dex/classes.art only if it is replaced by the theme)
Easy uninstallation via automatically generated flashable ZIP or through Magisk Manager (if installed systemlessly)
Delete files (even inside APKs)
Support for pre/post-(un)installation scripts
Support for dual /system partitions
Downloads
Latest beta: 3.0.0-beta4
Last 2.x release (no systemless support): 2.0.6

Things to remember
Compile your res/smali/etc files first before you put them in your theme! You can use APKtool for that, then just extract the files from the resulting APK.
Theming user apps is not supported, because modifying the contents breaks the signature.
Remember to properly edit .9.png files, or else you might get a bootloop!
You do not need to put theme files in a subfolder inside the main APK folder, e.g. /system/priv-app/SystemUI/SystemUI.apk. EVilTheme automatically does that for you.
Do I need to download the official Magisk module template?Nope! EVilTheme includes post-fs-data.sh, service.sh, and system.prop. Look for them in META-INF/tk/aureljared/magisk-common and edit them to your liking. The module.prop is automatically generated from information you put in eviltheme.prop.
In the event that the official module template is updated, I will update EVilTheme to ensure compatibility as soon as I can.
How do I theme an app (or apps) using EVilTheme?Inside the ZIP, there are three folders that you can modify as needed; namely, data, system, and vrtheme.
Your patches/theme files go in vrtheme, while APK files that you want to install onto the device go in data and system.
For example, you want to theme Settings.apk, which is located in /system/priv-app.
Let's say your theme replaces res/drawable-hdpi/battery_icon_50.png in the APK, and also replaces classes.dex because you changed some smali files.
These are the steps you need to follow to make a flashable theme ZIP:
Ensure you've downloaded the appropriate template ZIP. Make a folder somewhere you can remember and extract the ZIP there.
The folder should now contain the folders META-INF, data, system, vrtheme, and a file called eviltheme.prop.
Open eviltheme.prop in a text editor (please use Notepad++ if you are on Windows!) and add your theme information there.
In the vrtheme folder, go to system and make a new folder called priv-app. Inside it, make another folder called Settings.apk. Make sure you capitalized correctly!
Now make folders as necessary, according to the location of the files you want to theme. For example, battery_icon_50.png is located in res/drawable-hdpi, so make a folder named res inside Settings.apk. Inside it, create a folder named drawable-hdpi, then paste your new battery_icon_50.png inside.
Repeat step 5 until you've placed your theme files in their appropriate locations.
When you're done, go back to the root folder of the theme (the one that contains new, vrtheme, etc.) and put all 5 objects in a ZIP file. You should use Deflate compression method only. Any compression level will work.[/u]
If the recovery that the theme is intended to be used with requires signing, sign the ZIP now.
Test your theme! :victory:
How do I uninstall a theme?If the theme was installed systemlessly, remove it in Magisk Manager.
Otherwise, flash the relevant zip in /data/eviltheme-backup.
How do I delete files inside APKs to be themed?To delete files, add the filenames to a text file named "delete.list" inside the APK theme folder.
This is an example of a delete.list:
Code:
res/drawable-hdpi/ic-launcher.png
res/drawable-xxhdpi/battery_full.9.png
How do I delete files that aren't inside APKs?You will also need a "delete.list". Remember to use full paths:
Code:
/system/app/Bloatware/Bloatware.apk
/system/etc/hosts
Put that in the "vrtheme" folder.
How can I exclude deleted files from being backed up?Eviltheme versions 3 and up will automatically back up files that your theme deletes (in non-systemless mode).
To exclude a file, add "no-backup" to the end of the corresponding line in vrtheme/delete.list.
Code:
/system/app/Bloatware/Bloatware.apk [B]no-backup[/B]
How do I force installation on /system?Eviltheme versions 3 and up will automatically install in systemless mode with Magisk 13.1+, but if you want to force your theme to install to /system, create a file named .eviltheme-force-system (notice the preceding dot) in /sdcard before installing.
I need to execute some commands during the theme (un)installation.Inside META-INF/tk/aureljared/eviltheme, there are files named "pre-install.sh-example", "post-install.sh-example", "pre-uninstall.sh-example", and "post-uninstall.sh-example". Remove the "-example" part from the file name of your desired script, and edit that file in the text editor (please please please use Notepad++ if you're on Windows).
Use the comments in that file as a guide.
Help section
The theme wasn't successful, and I believe that the problem lies in the engine itself.Post here describing the problem. Be as descriptive as possible. I will ignore all bug reports without an attached logcat dump and/or recovery.log. I'll try to look into the problem when time permits.
I am just a student, not a full-time developer. I may not be able to provide a fix for some bugs, so feel free to help me and everyone else out. If you know how to work with Git, an upstream patch to the project would be highly appreciated :good:
The theme was / wasn't successful, but I am stuck in a bootloop.Try wiping your Dalvik cache. If the problem is still there, uninstall the theme and post a bug report in this thread. Include the relevant /cache/recovery.log and the theme you installed.
The theme was successful, but the app I was theming does not reflect my changes.This is a tough one to solve. Try recompiling the APK itself with your theme files. If it works, it's either the problem lies in how you put the theme files in the ZIP, or maybe it's the script that's buggy. Try to make a ZIP again, following the instructions to the letter. If it still doesn't work, you can file a bug report here and attach your logcat dump, recovery.log, and (if you want) the themed APK.
The theme was successful, and now I'm ready to release my theme to the public.All I ask for is some credit and a link back to this thread. :fingers-crossed:
The theme wasn't successful, and I found a problem in your engine script(s).If you're familiar with Git, you can make a pull request to the EVilTheme repository.
If you don't know how to use Git, you can just edit the script(s) you need and send me a PM containing the fixed script(s). I'll add you to the credits list in the first post if your bugfix is effective!
Great work :good:
I particularly like the smart selective dalvik-cache wiping
Maybe it could be even smarter if the script only wipes an apk's dalvik-cache if the apk has had it's classes.dex replaced by the theme...
I'm working on something like this myself but mine is based on the unreleased GS2XFormROM by @hawkerpaul

- Switch to Linus Yang's BusyBox 1.21.1, which will hopefully make theming TouchWiz < 4.2 possible
- TWRP compatibility: switch to a static zipalign binary, grep method for OUTFD to look for updater binary
- Cleaner zip hierarchy: new apps to be installed to /system and /data are now in their respective folders in a folder named 'new'

Very good job on this...one thing, in kitkat 4.4.2 touchwiz roms half of the apps that need to be themed are in /system/priv-app. This folder location does not seem to be in your installtheme.sh script. I can manually change everything myself but if you would like other users to take advantage of your work, you may want to consider updating for these users.

Thank you @aureljared, deuce_biggins pointed me here, and I must say nice work to you.. Thank you
I tried to vrt a data/app, and it may have broke the signature.. It did theme the app, but it was no longer visible/available in my app drawer.. I could see the themed icon in data/app tho.. I don't think the original VRT could theme in data/app either... I did use your new version 1.3 with twrp on my Galaxy Tab 3, so that is good news.. It also made two folders on my internal sd, one was for data/app and one for system/app.. It did make a copy of the apk it themed in data/app, and placed it in the folder on my internal sd . I will test this on my Note 3 with twrp later..Thank you

No, I only tried it with the old VRTheme, and it didn't work either (no icon in drawer). I don't think it'll work on EVilTheme either as I haven't changed the process of /data/app.

It could be possible, if we can find a way to go around the sig verification. Or perhaps it just needs a Dalvik wipe, I don't really know [emoji26]
Hello fellow XDA friends! I am an extreme fan of Roboto Condensed and ALWAYS keep a zip of the font to replace my entire system UI. So if you are anal about your phone having consistent fonts, being Roboto Condensed, this is the zip for you! As always MAKE A BACKUP before flash even though I of course have flashed this multiple times every time I flash a ROM and have never had any issues with it. I do not have a revert to stock zip so PLEASE, AGAIN, MAKE A BACKUP, JUST, IN, CASE! I hope you enjoy!
Credits to this who create flashable zip files for me to use as a template to use for each device I am using.
Thanks to everyone who has helped me on XDA with not only fonts, but various tasks here and there :silly:
THESE ARE FLASHABLE ZIP FILES - YOU DO NEED A CUSTOM RECOVERY TO FLASH
To fix the [X] in your lock screen clock problem you can flash this: http://www.mediafire.com/download/bt2hz0t6osbghy5/Font_DejavuFonts1.zip
Credits to: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/themes/fonts-flashable-zips-t3219827 & @xxsashixx for the find - thanks again!
Big thanks to @THATTON for providing me with some great looking fonts to zip up
For any requests, feel free to PM me or mention my username in a thread post and I'll be happy to throw together a zip for you!
Current Fonts:
My Dropbox Fonts Folder (once this is confirmed working, I will remove the files from this post and put up screenshots of each font)
I've been trying to figure out how to get Bariol system wide. That's my all time favorite font.
Great Roboto font! Cool

Yes it does. You have to flash in recovery.
It's been awhile since I root or have custom rom. I assume root device will not get factory update anymore, or does it? Want to keep the phone as vanilla as possible, but there's really some deficiency that only root app can fill.

Correct, no ota with normal root system changes. There is a systemless root, but I've not tried it...
I have updated the main post to be a bit more clear on needing ROOT and a custom recovery to flash this font for those who aren't as familiar! Enjoy
Added Bariol font per request, enjoy
Bariol FTW!!!!!! Thanks again man.

Happy to help and I'm glad it worked out the font does, indeed, look good! Though I can never leave my precious Roboto!!!!!!! :silly:
Any chance you could post a zip of the stock font? I liked my clock more before and stupidly didn't make a backup, and font changer apps don't change certain things including the clock for me.
Default Font

So I grabbed all the default fonts from my /system/font & zipped them up.
I'm on the ASOiP ROM, so I'm not a 100% sure these are the same as Google's stock Android fonts, but you could give that a try if you want.
Is that a flashable zip? I couldn't get it to work.

Oh, that's it? I feel pretty stupid now haha
It caused a little problem in WhatsApp though. The weird symbols are letters in Hebrew and it only happens in the name field. Also, it doesn't happen in any other application. I'll try finding a solution and will update if I manage to

I've tried placing the font I wanted (bellota) in the folder, but it seems not to be working (at least the regular one). I'm not sure if it's because I've an OMS Rom
If you have time can you test it or at least tell me if I did something wrong??
BellotaMagisk
Edit: OMS was messing up with this module

If one needs to replace fonts well, then all the variations needs to be replaced - about 18 fonts.. does this module support adding all 18?

Hi, i flashed this via magisk on my g955f stock rom and it changed the font to roboto regular, then i decompressed the file, changed the name to roboto condensed and flashed again and rebooted but it did not work. I also downloaded the font package and replaced the .ttf file and reflashed but it only changed the font back to stock. Help please? Thanks

Make sure that you replace the file name with the exact name that it is in system, and after a first installation flash the zip via magisk and not TWRP
Hope can help you
