[Q] Custom Fonts? - Atrix 4G Themes and Apps

Does anyone know how to change the system font to a custom font on the Atrix? There is an app on the market called font changer but I'm not sure if it works. Has anyone tried it yet on the Atrix? If so, please post if it works or not. Thanks!

Gonna be home soon and I'll give font changer a try and post back

Be careful - I don't know if it was just the font I used, but I tried a few days ago and used Verdana. Did a preview first and it looked good but when I clicked Apply it changed to half chinese characters! You have to uninstall using the app itself to get the system font back and that was a challenge because the app was almost all in chinese. But I got it back.

I'm assuming if you have root access and RootExplorer, you could just rename the font(s) you want to use DroidSans.ttf and DroidSans-Bold.ttf, and copy them into your /system/fonts folder. Or push them via ADB if you're familiar with the commands.

I used font installer and have had no issues so far.

Ok, I used font installer and it worked perfectly. I didn't try font changer though.

Type Fresh (in app market) works great if you are rooted!

Root tools by jrummy16 allows you to install fonts, change or even deactivate boot images and TONS of other handy things

You can copy your ttf to /system/fonts, over the existing files.

Absolute root tools worked for me

Font Changer for [ROM][Gingerbread] 2.3.3 | CyanogenMod 7 | SwiftDroid (v2.0 M3)

Hi,
Does anyone know if I can use the above together, and more importantly I dont suppose there is a tutorial somewhere on how to get it working?! Am quite scared! Would also like to know if it's worth changing the fonts, or would it impact on any further ROM updates / different Roms being loaded? Thanks in advance.
Hi,
Yes you can use font changer from the market on SwiftDroid M3
What to do:
Make a Nandroid backup JUST IN CASE
Copy .ttf to /sdcard/fonts
Open font changer
Select your font from list
Press apply
Wait for it to apply
Reboot
It doesn't affect anything, you just need to re-apply after each flash.

why bother with an app do it directly yourself, no need to be scared the change wont affect your phone, so you wont brick it , i've done it for all my soft-moded data2system versions of different ROMs.
Here is how-to:

GB Messaging Text

Simple question, can the font size be reduced? Its far to big.
Just what I thought when sent the first sms.
yeah its too easy.. just install a smaller font with font changer app
Simple question #2 then. Which system font needs to be replaced?
I have this problem too..does font changer need to be rooted?and does 2.3 root same to 2.1?
Yes it needs root and no, not as yet. If you want root you will need to flash the pre-rooted 2.3.3 available in the dev section.

could be a nice guide cuz the fontz are WAY too big in the messaging app.
i like the small font in 2.1 [=

[Request] MIUI SMS APK

Hello,
Could anyone here pull from me the MIUI SMS application from MIUI ROM in order to install it on ICS?? i really like so much the app!
I tried to use GO SMS with a theme but it isn't the same thing like in MIUI
Help! and thnx so much
I am 99% positive it won't work, but if you feel like trying just download a MIUIv4 rom (doesn't matter for which phone) and use a file manager to extract it. Its located in system/app

Thanks for your quick response. Question arose in my mind is, how do i know my font is changed and also, how do i change my system font (like System date, default system fonts when we open settings and find options like wireless and networks, call settings, display and so on...and other things which is reflecting in old font format) using this new font installer....I have already rooted my phone thru superoneclick software.
Can you please tell how to reflash my ROM. I have not installed any Custom ROMs in my handset.
Thanks
Devaraj
To flash a new rom,
1. Download the rom file in.kdz format.
2. Download the kdz software by which you can flash your rom.
AS you are new to flagging rom, this is the easiest way you can go.

The font changing is system wide. To really be aware of that, install for testing purposes a more unique font with odd characters and look for yourself that it has changed absolutely everywhere (contacts, phone, settings, messaging, browsers). After that you can install whatever font you want and know that it has already changed everywhere.

You are wrong at this point.
Kdz is only used for changing the default roms(or official roms).
If you want custom roms (modified rom based on official roms) then you must have recovery to flash them.
Sent from my LG-P500 using xda premium
Or you install recovery or oficial by the means you want or you just try more fonts because you use stock rom and not all fonts look good on stock but im sure there will be more than one that fits and that you will..
Now you advise a new user to fash a kdz just for have font back lol you are crazy
Sent from my LG-P500 using xda app-developers app
Just root phone instal rom manager from market install a recovery for p500 from rom manager app then i get you a zip of a oficial stock rom to flash by recovery or you flash one from forum but if you want flash the .kdz be my guest but then dont cry if you brick your phone.
Someone please tell him wich recovery is stable because i don use clockwork just instal a 5.x.x.x not a 6.x.x.x that is unstable.

System Font

Is There Any Other Way To Change The System Font Without Rooting The Devise
I don't think you can change the actual system font without rooting. I know you can download different fonts from the playstore and apply them in the settings ,but it only effects certain things.

But after rooting Motorola device wont work well custom rom Are not working well with Motorola
