After backup and reboot, some parts of rom didn't reverted to previous font. Also i sent a crash log (play store) when trying to preview a font.

Device N5 + OmniRom

Great app!!!!

Just a quick question: can change how to trigger preview mode, like click to preview and hold to apply?

Tks

Every time I tap on a font it displays a message "unfortunately, fontster app has been stopped" and the app restarts :( .. Plz fix this bro...
[Android Apps and Games] bobbarker2:
Oh thanks. But now a problem I'm having I installed a font and rebooted and the system font was successfully changed. But now im trying to install a different font and it stayed the same as before. Tried it a bunch of different fonts, rebooting, reloadui and still no change. App shows superuser toast as successful so it isn't a permission thing. And it shows the fonts I tried to change to as installed with a check mark next to it. Is there a way I can go back to the default android font outside of the app? Unfortunately I didn't use the backup included in the app but not sure that would work anyway with my problem. Also tried clearing the cache as suggested earlier. Running CM11 on an S4.

Edit: Tried flashing one of the Font Packs from the other thread, and it still didn't change the font. Is the font being used cached somewhere that I need to remove in order for it to update?
[Android Apps and Games] Chromium:
Alright Ive got some not so good news. The app seems to have issues with earlier versions of Jellybean, and it looks like its working on 4.3+.

All of these crashes are coming from 4.0 - 4.2 devices. For now I will change the minimum requirements to 4.3+, but I will also start looking for a fix to get the app working for the other jellybean users. However I did realize that the majority of my users are on KitKat so hopefully this shouldnt be too big of a problem.

Sorry I have no way to do this. But you can use the preview feature and input your own text to test if your characters are available in the font. Unfortunately I cant add missing characters to fonts.

Use the fonts included in the app.

Try flashing this stock fonts zip.

[Android Apps and Games] TarteMan:
So useful app, thanks to dev :cowboy:
[Android Apps and Games] jozjonlin:
It's weird. I installed it on my Note 3, changed the font, then the app asked to reboot. It reboots to the point where it sits at the pulsing SAMSUNG screen and then nothing else happens except that the logo continues to pulse. I've gone in to recovery and cleared the Dalvik cache and reset all my permissions, yet nothing has changed. I'm going to play around with a few more things to see if I can get the phone to reboot, but it looks like I might have to reset everything to get the phone to boot up.

Using a stock rooted 4.2 ROM. Now I see there are issues with some devices on 4.2. Any idea how to get it to boot, or should I simply wipe and start over? Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] VyZard:
Problem

Hi, great idea, plus it's dead simple,thanks.

BUT

I have quite a big issue here, I backed up my font first, then downloaded the ubuntu font (that I love), the think is : now opera doesn't load pages, nor flipboard or my mail app, the sms app accepted the new font though), there was nothing changed apart from the font before this occured. I tried to restore my font but didn't work, tried to download the xperia font but it wouldn't apply, (cleared cache and all), so I tried to flash the recovery zip but... didnt work either (so I don't know, maybe it backed up the ubuntu font...). Anyway, can somebody send me a flashable zip or the xperia Z1 font please? Maybe that'll do it.

thanks in advance.

And again, the idea is awesome,especially the True Font display option !
[Android Apps and Games] TarteMan:
anyone now wich is the touchwiz font :confused:
[Android Apps and Games] Chromium:
There are a few users with s4 that are using it without problems. Just make sure you are on a close to AOSP rom. If you are on Touchwiz you can expect things to go wrong.

If you have a custom recovery you can simply flash the stock fonts zip.

Also I put a warning in this thread (and on the play store) that this app may have issues on OEM skinned Android builds, such as Touchwiz.

Are you on a custom rom, or the stock Sony build?
[Android Apps and Games] slackhouse:
I'd be interested to know if Samsung users would still have issues if they switched to a different launcher? Maybe download the Google Now Launcher and try that? Or, one of the countless other launchers and see if it works that way?
[Android Apps and Games] LordManhattan:
Thanks. Works just fine on my Xperia Z Ultra (stock 4.4.2).
[Android Apps and Games] Chromium:
No that won't make a difference. The problem is the touchwiz system, not just the launcher.

Hi,

I installed this application a few hours and I created a backup. I installed some fonts but I prefer the default font, Roboto Regular. I tried to restore the backup but that didn't worked.

There isn't Roboto Regular in the list of the available fonts. So how can I restore Roboto Regular ?

Thanks !

[Android Apps and Games] Chromium:
As I've said multiple times, as well as placed a warning about at the top of this thread...Touchwiz is not supported and will very likely have compatibility issues.

I'll take a look at the logs, but the further your rom is from AOSP the higher the chance is that you may experience issues.

Flash the stock roboto font pack. I'll add an option within the app for this in the next version.
[Android Apps and Games] VyZard:
how can I send the logs? Yeah but there are plenty roms that are way further from AOSP than the xperia stock ones.

But you do that, do somebody have the flashable zip stock font?
[Android Apps and Games] djdarkknight96:
I assume you can't just flash the stock Rom again? It will revert the fonts back too.

I'm not having any (technical) problems with the app, nor did I say I was. I do fully agree that any app developer should be compensated for their time and effort, (which is why I happily donated). However where is the incentive to donate if the app operates identically for those who do pay and show support compared to those who do not.

Anyhow, I don't want to hijack this thread, so I'll leave it at that and just enjoy the new look of my phone.

[Android Apps and Games] Tom Mix:
my review - not usable on device not connected to the internet

well, nice try.

the basics have been left out though.:confused:

my simple toughts:

- android uses ttf fonts an there are millions, probably the interested user already has a favorite one or two

- it seems quite unlikely that the provided list has all fonts :cyclops:

- why is the user forced to browse a online font list? so all devices not connected are kept out.

- and it is not possible to use a given local .ttf file :eek:

- sad to see the simple reply from the 'developer': 'use font from list' to the question of how to use existing ttf font files

- and if the applikation is constructed to work online only, it should check if it can download and not 'circle' for hours or fc ...:rolleyes:

i was not the only one looking for local TTF file support ...
[Android Apps and Games] v1v14n:
A quick reply to Tom, there are number of apps in the playstore by which u can install local ttf files, one that i can think of is ifont. The problem with that is it doesnt change the entire system font. Another imp feature of this app is it changes all the fonts system wide, be it regular/bold/italic/bold italic fonts, am not sure if u have used it or not, if any of your single ttf file can do that so good luck with it and you can continue using your app. Also there is a feature to make a request for your fav font so that users can ask for their fonts, after gettin the req the dev makes sure he finds the complete font family of that particular font type and integrates in the app. I know it since i've been using the app from the beta days and before I would use the flashable zips file which chromium used to update in his previous thread.

[Android Apps and Games] Chromium:
https://github.com/Chromium1/Fonts/raw/master/RestoreStockFonts.zip

Use the request font feature and Ill try to add it when I have time.

Im not a wizard. I cant make a list with all the fonts...

This feature was available in one of the previous beta versions, but I decided to remove it from the app. One of the key points of this app is that it replaces all styles of fonts included in the rom and that I personally collected (or in some cases made) full sets of the fonts. In addition I edited the classifications of all the fonts so that they dont result in a bootloop when installed. If the user was able to pick their own files the classifications of the fonts will very likely be incorrect and they will soft brick their phone. Considering I already have a bunch of ignorant, uneducated reviews on the play store from people who failed to read the description, I cant imagine how much worse it would get if I left this option in the app.

See above.

I'll fix this for the next version.

Yep, should work fine.

- Action Bar will become transparent while scrolling through the font list

- App will now check for internet connection before attempting to download fonts

- Better exception handling (should reduce crashing)

- Font updates: Added Cambria, Courier New

- Some French and Russian translations

Helvetica Problem

Hey! Thanks for the app.

I got some problems with Helvetica Fonts in Fontster. It doesn't showing Cyrillic letters and other letters except English letters. Can you add FULL Helvetica font family from iOS?

Thank you!
[Android Apps and Games] :
Thank you for this app! Just a quick question before I try it out - does it support all accented characters?
[Android Apps and Games] Chromium:
Sorry, I dont think I can do anything about this. That is simply the nature of the font...it is wider than usual.

Yes, I'll try to find the version with Cyrillic characters and add it to the next version.

It depends on the font. Before installing a particular font, you can preview it by long pressing. From there, you can enter your own custom text and it will show if it supports your characters or not.
[Android Apps and Games] Random Username:
Thanks for your answer. I used another app before and I used the attached version of Segoe, which did not have the problem. Could you maybe implement this one? BTW, is it possible to use Windows fonts like Segoe UI with this app?
[Android Apps and Games] PunchUp:
I have a request. A 'Çompare' function would be great. To view a bunch of selected fonts in a separate window

And oh, this is working properly on Xperia S PA 4.4.3 in case you'd like to add to the list.

Thanks :)
[Android Apps and Games] :
Cool, thanks! I chose Helvetica and it work fine except in the notifications drawer where special characters (č, š, ž) show as rectangles. Does that depend on the theme I've applied by any chance (it's Gem Flat)?
[Android Apps and Games] Chromium:
I'll add this in the next version.

Hmm, I'll think about it. I currently dont see a good way to implement this.

Your theme should not affect this.
