[Q] Is it possible to install a new font? - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I know one can install new fonts from LG World, but most of these are variations on a (crap) theme? Handwriting and 'flowery' fonts and such like.
I have tried to modify an APK file with the Roboto Condensed Font, resigned the APK which installs but doesn't show the Roboto Condensed Font.
Without root, is there any other way to install 'custom' fonts by modifying an APK that comes from a free font from LG World?
Thanks for any help. I'm sure lots of others would be interested in this?
:fingers-crossed:

I'm interested, tried the same, no luck.
Need Roboto Condensed for LG phone.
Devs please??

in theme section theres a font zip. flash in twrp. but cant remember if it has that requested front.

I'm upgraded from g4 815 to Oppo r11s and wanna install the Oreo emoji ttf without root on nougat stock

I'm in a similar situation. I've developed my own font and want to install it on my LG Tribute Dynasty 7.1 unrooted.
I'd like to install it the legit way instead of renaming the font file or rooting the phone.
Is it possible to develop an installer using App Inventor 2 or Thunkable to do this?
I have some prior programming knowledge (php, JavaScript) so I'm not unfamiliar with programming entirely.

I am trying ifont donate package but still can't change font !!

Rom Toolbox Pro - Fonts

Recently I've been having fun changing the fonts on my phone. With all the fonts I'm able to change in the list, I can't change them all. I mean, I can but when I do and reboot it gets stuck in a bootloop. I've only successfully changed the clock font and pretty much any font that isn't bold or italicized. Although I would like to change some more fonts other than just normal-style fonts. Does anyone know which fonts for sure can't be changed? If not, I'll even go through them one at a time to compile a list of unchangeable fonts.
Or could it be the font I'm choosing just won't take to the font I'm trying to replace?
Okay, it seems they all will change, but to do it safely I have to change some of the separately.

I faced the same problem but how to solve the bootloop if I face it??
I had to flash a new ROM and lost everything. If you made your list it would also be of great help.

SOME fonts from rom toolbox are for GB and below only. that's why you'll get bootloops.
try finding fonts for ICS/JB in the main Android Developement forum then go to themes section. if you get a bootloop and don't have a backup or something
or you could try THIS out

URGENT. FONT Problem

It seems like I couldnt change my font style even I've installed flip font on my device. I have no font option on setting too. Anyone can give me some help?
Maybe you have tried to install some fonts that are not compatible with ICS (i suppose you are using ICS).
A better and simpler way to install the fonts in case you have root is by CWM. There was a thread here somewhere about flashing fonts and there was a guy that could make the font you like, ICS compatible. In case you still need help i will look for the thread and post it here

[Request] Someone with a Rooted variant upload a custom font APK.

I am trying to make an APK that will allow unrooted users to use iOS emojis, but in order to do so I need to see how LG sets up their APKs to place their tff files in the system directory.. So I need someone with a Rooted G4 to download a custom font from the LG smartworld app and upload it here so that I can replace the tff inside. Please and thank you!
