Hello,
all my Symbols are gone.
My Phone shows letters instead of Symbols.
I´m using a rooted Huawei Mate 8 running Kang VIP Rom but this happened not until i´ve used a different Theme
I guess it depends on the system roboto Font.
What i´ve tried so far without sulution:
I´ve flashed Rom several times
changed Font with iFont
overwrite Font in system/font Folder with Standard Roboto font
tried the "Fix for packages with unsupported symbols or boxes"
Some Pics how it looks like on my Phone.
Any ideas??

We have previously discussed about creating custom fonts here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=745345
But this method doesn't seem to provide the method to include a different font file for the bold face.
I've tried including a bold variant of the font in the same folder as the regular one, and changed the XML file too (the one with the same name as the font name).
For example, like this:
<filename>Arial.ttf</filename>
<droidname>DroidSans.ttf</droidname>
and
<filename>Arial-Bold.ttf</filename>
<droidname>DroidSans-Bold.ttf</droidname>
But it turned out that the phone only uses the bold font, while on the preview ("Set Font" options) it shows the regular one. It's strange.
I've found a font pack in the Market (developed by Swiggit Inc) and it looks like they have implemented custom fonts for both normal and bold face correctly.
So... Can anyone help me on this?
Thanks!
I am trying to change my default font to one that will read a number of diacritical characters not covered by the default Nexus 7 system font. I have read a number of threads that offer advice that seems incomplete and am looking for someone's list of actions that will definitely do this job or that can point me to a definitive guide to doing this.
My tablet is rooted, running 4.2.2. I have been downloading apps and fonts:
ASK keyboard to show these characters,
Font Installer and
Type Fresh,
ASK Pali font file,
DroidSansFallback.ttf and
Dejavu-fonts-ttf-2.33.
I had not looked into /system/fonts before now so I have nothing to compare its present population with, but it contains 41 .ttf files (Roboto, Droid and some others) and I have 21 Dejavu fonts waiting to be moved there!
I understand the default font is 'Roboto', but
what font will do what I want (have all diacritics)?
Will I need to swap between them in the normal course of events, and how?
Or rename some font to replace the default?
Is there a modifiable config file that names the default file?
Thanks for reading this far!
But what happened? Font Installer doesn't work for you?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The bottom line is that all the Droid (and Roboto) files are in /system/font but the (originally missing) diacritic characters are not accessible via the ASK keyboard which show only squares when pressed appropriately.
I have loaded the Droid, Dejavu and Roboto fonts into my Mac and opened them via its Font Book app. When installing 'Roboto', the Font Book reported an error: it was a duplicate of Droid Sans Fallback, so it seems that that is what Font Installer does. Pity this is not made clear.
The required characters are in there, it seems, but are not found by the keyboard. I'll contact the developer thereof now (he groaned).
Thanks for the nudge!
What's up everyone. I'm rooted and used iFont to install Comfortta, which is my favorite font. All the the system fonts changed, but the font of the google keyboard I installed doesn't change. The font does change when I go through settings to change the font, but the one I want isn't there.
Can I just copy the ttf file and then have the Comfortta font available in the settings/display/fonts??? Where is that folders?? I've looked and can't seem to get it.
Last month, I rooted my tablet because of slowdowns, and changing fonts are warning, and I thought that changing fonts are special feature, First It downloaded SuperSU, Then today night I was changing fonts, After changing fonts, it showed the partial of the fonts and it was some Chococooky and some DroidSans, Which method would I use font changing entirely 100%?
Italic Error
When back to Sony Sketch EF, then DroidSans, I saw that the italics are the wrong font and I want italics to become Droidsans.
Hi, I have problem with installing font using iFont app on my desire 310, if I replace Roboto font, first I have all english letters showed as chinese characters, and if I restart phone with custom font installed It will get a bootloop(too fix this I had to reflash system folders)
Anyone knows what's wrong?
