[Q] Change systemfonts by hand? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
Im using root explorer to change the system fonts but after replacing/reboot the fonts in system\font\ the font didnt change...
the only way is to change it in settings but there isnt my fav font included.
any idea?

Download and install your favourite font, then change it. There is a threat at xda called Flipfonts where you can find a lot of font apks.

Change font size on Vibrant

Is there an app I can use to do this or some settings I can change to make the font size larger? I tried an app called "Root Changer (root user)" didn't really work. Thanks everyone.

Spare parts works great
I have spare parts but it only changes the font size within the app.

I'm also looking for an app like that, i want to make my front smaller
Maybe you could change directly the front with flipfont ?
I installed the Zapf Chancery font from flipfont and thats the reason I'm trying to find something that increases the font size. It's a great font just to small.

I think the only way to do what you are asking is to edit the font through the creation of a font and install it with flipfont. There is a great thread (created by Ritalin) with all the info how to do it:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=745345 - there may be one already created that's perfect for you.
It's a very easy process. It is a bit time consuming changing the font size if you don't get it right the first time cause you have to do it over and over till you get the size right.
Thanks for the thread, I appreciate it.

If I was to change the icon of an app manually, would the app icon change back upon update of said app or do only the files that are newer get changed in the app? Hence technically the app icon, once changed will remain that way permanently?
Also, is there an easier way than using an apk editing tool to edit the app icons?

So basically you ressurected a dead thread because you don't pay attention to all these flashable mod zips or ask the devs behind the mods. Ppl edit the apks, repack the apks, and flash it to their device via cwm, and see the change that they made.
Download from source and edit prior to packing the apk?

[Q] How to change stock app icon

Dear all
Is there a way to change stock app icon? I would like to change the icons for Phone, Contact, Messaging and etc
I've been browsing xda looking for it but cant found anything related to this.
If its already stated somewhere, can you guys post the link ?
I'm currently using CheckROM V4 with speedmod's kernel.
Thanks
You can change icons decompiling, changing and recompiling the app itself, but I don't know if theres an easy way for this.
Search for apk manager, it's the easiest way I have found to decompile and recompile apks.

Font change, jelly bean

Hello, i have a problem with some app and in FAQ i read that i should change the font in android's preferences to system's original. I don't see any option like this (only size of font), could you help me?
Fonts are not changeable by default. You can only change them using some font changer apps which require root.
Also, you're already using the default system font, so any problem is because of the app itself. You should contact the app developer.
