Hi all...
It's there any way to force listing all the fonts that have been put in /system/fonts under the settings-display-fonts menu? I always have the same LG SmartGothic, Roboto and Roboto (enhancer) on the choice list.
Phone is rooted, ttf permissions are set (rw-r--r--). TIA

I just upgraded my rom to KH4 and i noticed the font had changed. Samsung had also added a font changing tool.
But my question is, how and where do I place fonts so that I can get that font tool to detect them and so that I can change to that font in the phone?
Fonts folder is
System/Fonts
jje
And I can use the fonts from my PC or?
?.........
these fonts are can be installed as apk's:

Well I meant, Yes I can use the TTF fonts from my pc, or No I can not use the TTF fonts from my PC.
I tried installing a new flip font apk on the phone but it is not showing on the list of fonts to change it to. Is there something I am missing to get this to work? Thanks

Let me clarify:
You installed a font changing .apk, and can't find it in the system settings>display>font type?
If that is the case, it wouldn't show up there because the .apk you installed should be in your app drawer, you would use that app the change your fonts instead of the system menu.
Or you put a font .ttf/.otf in the system/font folder and it doesn't show in the list?
If it is this one, I have a bunch in that folder that don't show up in the list either, it seems it only picks the stock fonts to display.
If you have tried using the font changing .apk to change the font and it isn't working, my guess is because LG lets you choose between multiple fonts it isn't using the default Android system font name (I don't remember the name off the top of my head) but instead using one of the custom font names.
If you want to change it yourself, you could try to replace the font you currently have the settings set to in the system/font folder with one of your choice (rename the stock font with a .bak at the end and rename the new font the same name as the old font, then make sure it is the same font your settings are set to).
All this is just speculation though, LG may have implemented the custom fonts differently, but I know they are in that system/font folder, so I think it could work. This is assuming you are rooted of course.
does anyone have detailed information about showing custom fonts in native font menu

to change fonts using the Lg font selector, this should be the same for all L9 variants
-requires root and a file explorer
-go download some .ttf font files you like but make sure the font has capital, lowercase, and all other characters
(theres plenty of free fonts just search it)
-navigate to /system/fonts/ and backup the fonts your replacing by naming them [font_name].ttf.bak
or just cut/paste them into another folder
-replace HYSerif_Regular.ttf and HYSerif_Bold.ttf or HYTravel.ttf and HYTravel_Bold.ttf to replace the fonts in the Lg font selector
-replace Clockopia.ttf to replace the clock in the status bar and LGE_Dialfont.ttf to change the Phone app's font. these two will take effect no matter what font you have selected
-set permission for new fonts to -rw-r--r-- and reboot.
-go to settings, click display, and click font type to select your new font
I'm still trying to find which font controls the Lg lockscreen clock's font so if anyone finds that one let me know
or if anyone know how to revert to stock android lockscreen, the Lg one is starting to bug me

Hi all,
I flashed a new ROM, but I see in him only the default font. When I look in the system folder - fonts, so there is about 30 fonts. How do I set a different font?
Is there any way to use the Google Product Sans font on LG terminals without having to root the device?
I think that the only way for now to change the font on the Q6 is via the SmartWorld app, where you can download and install fonts
