Hey all,
I tried searching but couldnt find what I was after.
I noticed you can change the font on the phone, and I read a post on one of the forums, which pointed out where to get new fonts, but I cant find it.
Can you do it without rooting the phone ?
Anyway hope you guys can help?
Biff.
Goto setting>display>screen.
Im thinking he wants to download new fonts and add them as he has stated he already noted he can change fonts.
The ubuntu font is marvellous. There's a free app downloadable from the market that make you download a lot of good fonts, the ubuntu one too.

What's the app called?
There is also a flipfont thread here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=894397) which has heaps and heaps of different fonts.
It's in the I9000 forum, but they work just fine on the I9100 (I've installed a few).

Hey dude there is this app called absolute system root tools
It has an option to change fonts and it even has a giant list of fonts
Check that app out and then if you like any of those fonts you can now ask for different fonts here
BTW the app has other cool featyres like the bootanimation changer witha giant list of options and a ad blocker
So yeah try it out!
Try font installer, it is free on market

You could go to dafont.com or other fonts site and change them manually, they're in /system/fonts/.
Thanks for the recommendations guys.
Was more looking for apk files we could use with the default flipfont font changer.
What's the SanGingerAce default font name?
You're gonna have more luck posting in the related thread rather than making a new one.
This is I think the fastest way to get the answer. LOL
Do you know?
Sorry, nope.
I haven't used a stock-based custom ROM in then last month ever since Behrad ported CM7 and other builds started popping up.

SonySketch. You can get it from one of the font changer apps in the market. I think its the one made by jrummy.

Hey all,
I was just wondering if there was a simple way to change the overall font in the aokp rom. I don't know much about working on the phone other than the basic flashing of roms and kernels. I noticed that there are some apps on google play but many don't seem to work well with ics. I'm only asking this because a little while back I used ShoStock2 and it had an option to change the font in settings->display->font.
If anyone has any ideas, please let me know.
If this is an obvious method please do not attack me. I did do a search here and on google and only found apps and custom scripts (like I said, I'm not very phone savy and prefer not to mess with too many things on my own).
Thanks in advance

Another vote for Font Installer. I use it all the time. There are other ways to do it, but this is simplest (and safest, I'd say). It comes with a bunch of fonts available, but you can add others. Great app!

It does not work with core Gapps (AOSP launcher "Launcher3"). You have to use Google (apps) launcher for custom font. There is no font app (I know; FontInstaller, MyFont, iFont, Type Fresh,...) atm that's working with AOSP launcher. On my daily build of AOKP for flo (KitKat) it does not work at all.

I think that this site is what you need
http://www.downloadonline.info/2013/02/23/lghome3-theme-download/
I apologize in advance for my ignorance, but what exactly is the LGhome3 and what will change if I use one of the one's that where linked above me? I see there is LGhome.JB4.apk and some others. I think i have an idea what LGhome3 is, but i guess im not exactly sure. Lol. Thanks in advance.

LGHome3 is the version of the LGHome Launcher that as far as I know, LG make it for ICS and partially upgraded with the 4.1.2 upgrade (It just add some wallpapers and some basic changes to the widgets). The LGHome.JB4.apk that you saw was a port from somebody in the community to make it available for 4.2 since the other versions FC and wouldn't work properly. Currently that port works partially and for 4.2 and FC when you try some things.
You can also see another version of the LGHome in the market called Simple Home by LGElectronics ( http://goo.gl/7eAVz ) and I think it was the version 2 since it doesn't have an app drawer, don't came with the widgets and it's compatible with Froyo 2.2.
About the themes you were looking for, LGHome has themes since version 2. Some carriers like AT&T block all the themes (I don't know why!) or only left 1 or 2 in their deploy, but they could be found at the Korean and Japanese ROMs.
Looking for a LGHome port to 4.2 I found some themes that work at http://goo.gl/bjjjr
Also found this other page where there's a link to download 10 themes for the LGHome at http://goo.gl/mKeIm
Please take note that to those themes to work properly they have to be installed in the /System/App folder (Need root access) and not in the /Data/App folder where the apps normally install when you use the installation wizard opening the apk directly. The links I provided previously have a very good tutorial of how to install them in a way that they work.
Anyway, LGHome is a very good launcher but if you are looking for another experience about themes and changing the appearance try another launchers like Nova and Apex that will give you a very Nexus 4 feeling and are very good saving battery life. Also you can use Go Launcher that have a lot of free themes. Or if you want to make huge changes or get very different experience check buzz launcher or MiHome that have some really good themes and some crazy stuff.
Go out there and try them all and every time you want to try something different, have more than 1 working launcher installed just in case and make backup of everything you overwrite in case you damage something.
Good luck.
^^ wow. That was one of the best replies I've gotten on here! Excellent! Thank you very much for the great information. That was above and beyond helpful. Thanks again. Cheers :beer:
