[Android Apps and Games] Chromium:
Ok I've found the source of the lockscreen colon issue. It appears that with the release of Lollipop, Google decided to switch out the normal colon (":") for their own custom unicode character (\u+ee01) on the lockscreen. This character belongs to the unicode private use area, meaning that pretty much every font other than Roboto will not have a symbol assigned to it. This is why you will see a box or question mark in its place (the custom font has no \u+ee01 character). If anyones interested, here's the specific commit where this witchcraft occurs. I'm really not sure why Google has done this. I guess the colon is too mainstream...:confused:

Now in terms of solutions, the only thing I can think of would be writing an Xposed module that simply reverts the use of the custom unicode in the keyguard. If enough people are interested in that, I would be willing to do so. Let me know.
[Android Apps and Games] JRJ442:
[MENTION=4883664]Chromium[/MENTION] I'd be glad to test
[Android Apps and Games] Chromium:
Anyone having issues other than the colon thing?
[Android Apps and Games] JRJ442:
Nope that looks to be about it. Tried out a few on my N6. I do get an app force close after I select TrueFont display in settings though
[Android Apps and Games] Chromium:
Thanks I checked out your crash log, and I believe I've fixed the problem. I'll try to push a new build to the beta channel at some point today.
[Android Apps and Games] Skripka:
Hi there! :)

FWIW, someone wrote a flashable zip to fix the colon in just about any font (maybe all of them, it has worked in all the ones I have tried). Certainly beats needing friggin Xposed.

I honestly can't remember who on XDA wrote it and where I got it (otherwise I'd mention them). ATTACHED
[Android Apps and Games] JRJ442:
FC is fixed ?
[Android Apps and Games] :
Installed apk and flashed fix on latest firmware on Nexus 6 using CleanRom and all good. Tks!!
[Android Apps and Games] Meneldur:
Tried recently changing font.

The app asked me to reboot now or later. I chose “later”, then SystemUI restarted showing no letters at all (empty). Finally phone soft rebooted alone. Font was successfully applied.

Weird.
[Android Apps and Games] Chromium:
That's expected. You should really reboot right after installing a font. I'll update the app and remove the later button.

Version 2.1? Could you be more specific about the issue. Is it crashing?
[Android Apps and Games] yuskhayru:
Its not crasing, its the progress circle didnt stop no matter how long i wait. Yes, ive try both 2.0 and 2.1. TrueFont Display didnt working, i also try install the font, but i cant. I cant even view the font, even after i clean data in apps. Btw, my device is Xperia z2 running android 5.0.2. :confused:
[Android Apps and Games] yuskhayru:
Sorry i didnt see this. Maybe coz im running an OEM android version cousing the problem. But the previous version works flawessly before. :confused:
[Android Apps and Games] ZDeuce2:
2.0 and 2.1 both won't install fonts on temasek's cm12 for T-Mobile Note 3. Also, may be a theme engine issue, but font list is black on almost black... Nearly illegible. Went back to 1.2 and it still works flawlessly...

Common sense isn't all that common
[Android Apps and Games] Chromium:
Strange, I'll look into it.

Could you be more specific. It the app crashing, or are the font installations just not doing anything?
[Android Apps and Games] yuskhayru:
Thanks dude, take ur time. Im already revert to old version. Its working fine now, the only problem with this old version, i have to change some font manually eg: robotomedium roboto black etc. Others just fine.

[Android Apps and Games] yuskhayru:
Finally i can install font with this app(ver 2.2). Im running android 5.0.2 on my xperia z2. Just a few problem, even this not a big problem, i hope u can fix it in the next release.

1. Sometimes the font fail to load even after i press retry. But when i go back and click the same font again, its now there!

2. True font display is not working no matter how many time i re-enable it.

I appreciate your good work, keep it up bro. Take ur time.. :thumbup:

Chinese language display corrupted

I just updated to the latest playstore version.

played around with it and changed some fonts. And now all the Chinese font either invisible or displayed as boxes. Tried several font and reboot several times. It just does not help. Prior updating, fonster was working flawless in my LG G3 rooted stock ROM.

Please kindly advise. Thanks

[Android Apps and Games] adomol:
For some reason, the app cannot download fonts any more. Tried on multiple devices.
[Android Apps and Games] bigmarv31:
Same here
[Android Apps and Games] adomol:
I know it was working about 6 hours ago since I was in middle of updating the roms on a couple of my devices. The first device I was able to reapply my font onto like normal, then when I got around to the second device, fontster couldn't download any fonts. I thought it had something to do with rom I had just installed. But then I went back and checked on the first device and it could no longer grab new fonts.

I ended up copying all my roboto fonts which had successfully applied on the first device over to the second device... my gimpy little work around until fontster is back up again. :D
[Android Apps and Games] yuskhayru:

How can I fix this problem?
[Android Apps and Games] Rjrocks22:
Hi,

Is there any solution to this issue? Coz that colon is very annoying on the lockscreen.
[Android Apps and Games] JRJ442:
There's been 2 ways to fix that posted in the thread. One is to make a copy of your stock Roboto-Thin.ttf, keep it somewhere on your SD. Navigate to your System/fonts folder. Delete the Roboto-Thin.ttf font that's there. Now go find the copy of the stock one you made, and copy it to your System/fonts folder. Reboot and it'll be fixed. Another was a flashable zip someone posted. I like the first way though. The flashable zips colon is a little too thick for me. Actually I thought there was a workaround to having to do all that in the latest beta. Maybe not. Thought there was though.
[Android Apps and Games] Rjrocks22:
Hey thatnks for the reply. I dont have stock Roboto-Thin.ttf, moreover the flashable zip shows signature verification failure, while flashing on my CM recovery. I guess I have to install a custom recovery for that.

Can you please provide stock Roboto-Thin.ttf?

[MENTION=4883664]Chromium[/MENTION] can you please provide an update to the fontster for this issue?
[Android Apps and Games] senisiroycs:
Hi, attach is the roboto-thin.ttf file, I've been tried to copy to system/font and it works! Hope it helps :good:

edit : it's taken from 5.1.1 lollipop
[Android Apps and Games] Rjrocks22:
Will it work? Mine is Cyanogenmod 12. Based on Android 5.0.2
[Android Apps and Games] senisiroycs01:
I don't know..yet.. But you can try to backup the roboto-thin first from your system..and try to push the ttf that I attached before

Thank you for the app. I was looking for this. Works great on 4.4.4 galaxy note 4.

Thank you. Works fine on note 4. I was looking for the flash able zip that I had found some time ago for the 4.4.4 since I wasn't a fan of 5.0 but with no luck so I found so much more with this.
[Android Apps and Games] Rjrocks22:
Hope this will help to fix the lockscreen issue on Lollipop

http://google-opensource.blogspot.in/2015/05/roboto-googles-signature-font-is-now.html
[Android Apps and Games] Skripka:
It won't.

The issue is known for a few months and there isn't much of anything that can be done about it. Lollipop's lockscreen clock calls on a bizarro non-standard key-input for the colon...because using the standard colon is far to mainstream for a cool company like Google. The only "fix" possible is either to use the existing font-fix and live with it....or perhaps to manually go and redraw the colon font by font and create and place it in the new unstandard input blank.

Google open-sourcing Roboto does nothing to fix Google's stupid design choice in Android.
[Android Apps and Games] Vanessa@W:
Neither of those worked for me. T^T

I was on Temasek's CM12.1 port for Note 4. The flashable zip didn't do anything for me, and the second method gives a slightly tilted box for colon...

Wondering if there is anything else I can do... T^T

Stock Nexus 6(purchased direct from google) issue...

[MENTION=4883664]Chromium[/MENTION] I love the overall design and UI etc. but, on my Nexus 6(purchased direct from google) I can't download any font. If it should work with nexus devices, stock android, or rooted devices I don't know why I can't download a font. The only thing I get is the spinning progress bar when I tap on the download font button. I uninstalled and reinstalled the app to see if that would fix it and it didn't. Hopefully there is a fix for this. Thanks! :)
[Android Apps and Games] Johnny_B:
Works perfectly for me after some trial and error. I also had the lockscreen colon problem on my Nexus 6 running rooted stock 5.1.1. I found out I have to delete and replace Roboto-Thin.ttf font in /system/fonts every time after I changed the font. So the sequence was: choose font and install - reboot - replace Roboto-Thin.ttf - reboot again - don't like the font - start over again.

Lots of rebooting, so I slapped myself on the back of the head and now I just choose a font and install as many times as needed until I find a font that I like, and at the end I replace Roboto-Thin.ttf only once.

Hope this helps anyone. And thanks for the app!

[Android Apps and Games] thogz11:
This worked for me. Unfortunately, if you use another font, the colon will change back to box again. I tried to reinstall the other font but the box is still there. The colon fix only when you change font to stock(which is Roboto for my phone).

[Android Apps and Games] :
I backed og fonts up but I never will probably restore them. Hang on one sec.... I'll test it on my device and report back to this same post.

Annnnnd you are correct. Restore did not work for me either. I suggest going to google search type flashable fonts XDA in and grab original fonts for whatever version of Android your on and the fix zip, (can't miss it it's in the OP) and flash them. Worth a shot. I Hate stock fonts so no biggie to me that they won't restore. I'll never use them again anyway. [emoji12]
[Android Apps and Games] sshanky:
Hi! Love the app.

I'm wondering how to revert to the font that was in use prior to when I installed the app. If I uninstall it, will the currently-selected font remain in use, or will we revert to the original system one?

It might be a nice feature to have an option to allow reverting to the original font, or at least indicate in the list which one it is.

Also, I noted that some fonts don't have all symbols (like phonetic symbols seen in a dictionary definition), so I have gravitated back to roboto for that reason.
[Android Apps and Games] :
The app should have asked you to create a backup of the fonts you had when ran it for the first time. You'd have to flash that zip I believe.

If you uninstall the app, you are still stuck with the current font.

This app seems to be the only one that changes the fonts on my Pixel XL. (Tried multiple zips as well as ifont) Unfortunately the colons on my lockscreen clock disappear and my settings show Wi_Fi.
