[Q] How to Change fonts in Epic 4G - Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi folks,
Does anyone know how to change fonts for Epic 4G. I have been looking all over the place, found none. There is an app called font changer in the market. But it doesn't support SPH-D700 ( Epic 4G).

There's a thread in the general android theme section with 100's of flashable fonts in it. As an fyi, the font's are in the system/fonts folder of the device.

Just tried the Custom Android Font Changer. Very nice! Now I can have my Dark Horse Theme without the "chick" font.
No offense, ladies.

I just tried the Custom Android Font one and it works great. I've switched fonts about 20 times. Thanks!!!

For anyone who needs to change the font, use this tutorial by qbking.

I'm just gonna point out that the MIUI font makes stock EG22 with the TW4 launcher look amazing. Somehow makes the screen look nicer.

That's not true. Font changer works just fine on my epic 4g.

Any of the fonts should work with eb13. A font is a font.

Yep, as the person above said, fonts are just fonts.
If you want to manually change your fonts, name whichever TTF fonts you want to use as DroidSans.ttf and DroidSans-Bold.ttf and copy (using either adb push or Root Explorer) to /system/fonts on your phone. Reboot, and that should do the trick.
If you're looking for flashable font packages, look here:

There is also an app from the market for free, called "custom font switcher" . I have used it on dk28(froyo) and works great, there are 109 fonts that I see.

[Q] Font Change

Is there a relatively simple way to change the font on the epic? I'm running ACS 1.1 and was using AA's revolution remix theme but after a couple of weeks my phone started acting up. Performed a restore in clockwork mod, re-flashed theme and in a couple of weeks the phone was again unresponsive. So once again I am without a custom theme, which isn't so bad, but I REALLY miss the font in revolution remix, it was so much easier on the eyes. Can anyone offer some insight?
Type fresh app in the market.... you will also need andexplorer.... I use the font from the android logo
You can google .ttf fonts to download, save the fonts you want to try/use onto your SD card. Then, download FontChanger from the market and load the fonts. Very fun to experiment with a lot of the fonts. LOL

Yes, you can do the same for any theme. Just make sure you delete the other folders except the fonts folder.

Custom Font Changer from market works, but when selecting different fonts, everything always appears either completely in bold or all regular. For example, gmail messages are all coming up as bold regardless of whether message is read or unread. With original SRF 1.2 font, gmail read messages are not bold.
Probably a silly question, but am I missing a setting in the app or something else that will address this?

[Q] CM7 Theme Engine

Hey guys. I have been on CM7 for a while now but have never used or even looked at the Theme Engine before. I was hoping that you guys could answer a few basic questions about it:
1. Are these THEMES also launchers as well? Currently I am using CM7 with GoLauncher. If I install a Theme will it replace Go Launcher as the default launcher or will it theme Go Launcher?
2. Is there a massive thread that has a list of all the CM7 Themes? I have only been able to find individual theme threads (MattedBlues, etc.)
3. I like custom icons but I hate when I have apps that aren't supported...they stick out like a sore thumb on the desktop. Is that the issue with the THEME ENGINE themes or do they alter the default icons on their own?
Thanks in advance!
1)the themes dont overwrite your launcher,use what you prefer.
2)I believe there is a thread somewhere with all themes try google,there is also alot of them on the market.
3)some themes do have custom icons,depends on what the theme creator included.
Here's a list of some themes.you want HDPI for the evo http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1046108

Thanks a lot for your input guys! I tried a few out. The only thing I'm not liking is when there are custom icons. More than likely they don't have customized icons for ALL the apps you want to display on your desktop. Then you either have to have ugly mismatching icons or remove the unsupported icons from your desktop altogether.
Can any of you guys advise on a THEME that themes all your existing icons?

Thank you Fergie....that is the exact idea I was looking for. Do you know if there is a black theme that has a similar effect (making all of your icons have a dark/black tint? I already tried DarkGinger. but it only has customized icons...and not very many of them.

Download font installer from the market
font installer mate, that options isn't there on the display settings
all fonts are located in /system/fonts/
just grab any font you like from your pc, internet or any other places. you can even take fonts from windows control panel. decide which of those fonts you want to change. renameyour desired to the font you want to be replaced. aaaand replace it!!!!
though for for english/latin font this method is not too easy, cause there are lots of english font and some of didn't name so clearly. but for other languages it's usually a single font.
btw third party fonts, *ones you choose, font installer or flipfonts) are not sized correctly. sometimes they are too bg so they won't shown coorectly in boxes, or they're too small and hard to read. I suggest using of stock or AOSP fonts only.
Guys, thanks for your suggestion and I prefered to download font installer but why I get my phone's bootloop after install and applied font from font installer?anyone knows why is it??

hey thanks for the reply but I know about changing TW fonts via display but I was wanting some kind of mod that changes ALL FONT CLASSES. for example, on TW when u change the font if u open chrome majority of the web page font is still "stock". the address bar usually has the new font but nothing else. I was looking for something for AOSP or TW that changes all ur system fonts

I'm looking for this same thing. Although, using the Font changer apps on AOSP I can't get the whole system to change. Usually just the normal font is changed. Bold, Italic, etc. don't change. How do you get all of them to change? Any help is appreciated.
hey dude and fellow XDA members. I found a thread on xda for our ENTIRE font goodness on JB AOSP ROMs.
all props and thanks to dev
