Thank you very much for sharing these great fonts and the quick and easy installations.

I am currently using comfortaa and I love it!!

I have flashed different fonts from themes and like this one the best. I never knew there were so many more I could choose from!

But my main concern is word wrapping. I have found that certain fonts don't word wrap as well as comfortaa. So my question to everyone is just that.

Which font can word wrap just as great as comfortaa can? As much as I love this font I would like to try others.

Thanks guys!!

hi there..

I'm using Samsung Galaxy S i9000... running Android 2.2..

got 3 questions here..

1) I understand that to install this font pack, we need to rename it to update.zip and place it inside SD card and flash from CWM is it?

2) Once font installed, is it will stay in "Setting > Display > Font Style"? So i'm able to change the font when I want without flash anymore?

3) If I want to install many font.. mean I need to install one by one via flash update.zip?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] fachadick:
No on the above, I think what you're referring to are flipfonts, which get loaded to non-rooted galaxy phones by installing an apk. These are different. You're talking baout the type of thing found here.

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] fachadick:
It's not a question of packaging up fonts for miui, non-evo miui roms don't like most fonts - see the crossed out bit in post 2 for the few that did work. It has to do with how the font itself is set up. I had to hunt down fonts that were created as unicode bmp only, and had a UPM of 2048 to get a success rate of 75%. I'm still not even sure that I was on the right track.

Sent from my blah blah blah blah
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] jiggadroid:
Yeah I noticed that maybe I'm just confused. I am using the miui comfortaa and it works fine. Are you saying that comfortaa just seems to work but others like Sony sketch don't even if you "miuipack" it? Either way thanks for the hard work and packaging these. I just liked the Sony sketch if it was possible/easy to miuipack.

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] fachadick:
I edited the post you quoted to briefly explain why it wouldn't work even if they get miui-packed. Sorry.

Sent from my blah blah blah blah

Edit - I took a look over at the miui-dev forum, and it looks like they might have fixed the issues that they used to have. Here's SonySketch MIUIpacked. Can you let me know if it works for you? Make sure you have a nand backup, or that comfortaa pack handy - The last time I time I flashed MIUI to test these, I couldn't get past the bootscreen with this pack.

when is the update of new fonts coming ? (:
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] fachadick:
I'm trying for this week, real life has been just nuts for the past month or so. I think you'll be happy though, I've got around 25 ready to go, and they're all really nice too. Sorry for the delay.

No one ever wants to be "this guy", but I feel like I've tried to find / read / absorb and it's not clear to me at all.

Now I'm asking publicly.

I have a rooted 2.2 Samsung Captivate.

I have LauncherPro and ADW Launcher available on the phone to use, if that helps.

I have Titanium back up, Busybox, and Superuser.

What I don't have is an understanding of how to get ANY font onto this damn phone.

I've taken the Comfortaa.zip file, extracted it on both my desktop and then to the phone and on the phone and extracted into sdcard file.

I've tried to read up on Clockworker, Amon RA, flashing, etc.

I just do not get it.

It is frustrating to be so intelligent on the hardware side of electronics and such a completely useless knob when it comes to software.

Apologies in advance. Can someone give a quick breakdown on why I'm not getting where I need to be? Thanks in advance for any consideration.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] John_Q:
Former Captivate user here...... You can't flash fonts; search the Captivate forum for font apks.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] John_Q:
I checked my computer and I still have em.Over 20 apk fonts in the zip. Install as would any apk.....Enjoy
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] fachadick:
No worries, search the thread for the term "flipfonts". I linked to another thread that has a ton of apks that will work for you a few pages back. I'll update the op with that link when I get a chance.

"Invalid Thread specified. If you followed a valid link, please notify the administrator"

...from the link on page 56.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] fachadick:

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] stanglifemike:
AWESOME!!!!!!! Thank you very much for these!! Couple questions though, is the stock font also in the OP? Or how would we go back? Also, do you need to go back to stock before flashing a new font? About to flash SonySketch now, looks sexy.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] fachadick:
Stock font is in the op, its droidsans. And you can flash right on top of each other until you find one you like - no need to go back to stock first. :)

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] afflikt3d:
Thanks so much for these! Currently using Sony sketch and it looks amazing :) question though. Are you able to turn any font (free of course) into a flashable zip? If so, there is one in particular I would like to try out. And I would be more than willing to donate some PayPal interweb money to your cause.

Thanks again!

**EDIT**Actually its a commercial font. Offer still stands though. When I purchase the font, would you be able to make a flashable zip for me? If you don't feel comfortable doing, that's cool. No worries :)
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] fachadick:
I'll package up any free font anyone points me to, but yeah, I think I'll have to pass on the commercial fonts. I did, however add a donate link to my sig (since you brought it up) :)

I ended up using the Wonder Sideloader program and FINALLY got them to work, yay! :D

Except that I went a little crazy, downloaded every single one after I saw ComfortAA worked, and now when I try to go to settings>fonts, I get an FC. :eek:

I'm trying to remove them one by one to figure hout which is the culprit, but I'm about half way through the list and no joy.

Will update if I find the nasty one.

Update* It appears that it was either FACIT or one of the three "Helvetica's" that are in the font pack. I uninstalled all four of them together and the phone was back to good. I was certain it was "Akbar", but that was for a whole different reason. >: -)

Is there any way of getting a comicsans font .zip? That is my wifes favorite font. I keep changing mine up through your files and can't make up my own mind, but she would really like to have comicsans. Can you make one?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] fachadick:
Sorry, but comic sans and papyrus are the only two fonts that I won't touch. I refuse to have anything to do with either of those fonts getting even more exposure. You can check post 2 of this thread for instructions on how to make your own though.

Try ChinaCat for a comic sans alternative;

Thanks for the info - and lol on akbar.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] squick:
Well thats f-up, what did they ever do to you, lol. we are going to try that chinacat. Is there anything that you might know of that is similar.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] squick:
Just wanted to hit ya back and say thanks for the chinacat. She really likes it, finally. We went through all the fonts and just couldn't find one she really liked. Thanks for the work and help.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] fachadick:
I'm sorry, really. Most people with a professional graphic design background can't stand comic sans. Google "what's wrong with comic sans" and you'll find a bunch of info why nobody should be using that font anymore. There are actually entire movements to rid the world of that font. I'm not that passionate about it, but I'm still not going near it.

On the other hand, I'm glad that chinacat worked out for you/her. :)

Now im curious...what lockscreen is this sprint? Aosp? Did you flash a lockscreen or delete the stock? I may not be helping but something is going on here.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] chogardjr:
Easy fix to lockscreen fonts. The market has an app called font changer, its free. you have to use the font packs and extract them and rename then with the font name for Example:

Av Quest-diablo_clockopia.ttf

This app will change all system fonts including the lockscreen. Plus you can do a hot reboot to make it quicker to change them, if that is an option provided by the dev of your rom.

Loving your collection of fonts...Keep them comming.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] fachadick:
That's what I mean, all of these apps do the same thing, change the droidsans and droidsans bold fonts for the system fonts, and the clockopia font for the lockscreen clock. That's exactly what these packs do, but automated. More information on the specific setup being used here would be helpful.

And numbers do change on flashing but not on lockscreen. Hope you got what I meant

Hi. Just wanted to say "thanks" for all these font packs - my everyday font is LiberationSans. However, being a mac aficionado, I was wondering if there was any way you had any plans to do a Helvetica font? Thanks in advance.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] fachadick:
I'm trying to stay away from commercial fonts, but I did add some fonts that have that have a similar feel. in fact, here's another one which will be going in the next update (no screenshots yet though).

If you already have Helvetica though, I link to some instructions in post 2 where you can put a pack together yourself.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] VisedMonk:
I understand. Thanks for the font. Flashing now. And I'm gonna try to create my own don't pack with the Helvetica I already have. Fwiw, your LiberationSans had a vet similar feel, as does the MgOpenModerna.

thanks - shoot me a pm if you run into any issues. btw, I think MgOpenModerna is my favorite out of all of them. I have around 4 or 5 that I rotate between, but I keep coming back to it. It just looks so clean :)
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] VisedMonk:
I agree. The only thing I don't like about it is that the tops of some application size numbers get cut off in the stock Android "Manage Applications" app with the Moderna font. Otherwise it's perfect.

Btw, thanks much for the Alte Haas Grotesk font. You're right -- very, very close to Helvetica. I dig it.

Hello, Flashed one of these fonts onto my evo and Im loving it. So is my daughter, problem is her intercept only has temp root. Is it possible to push a font via adb? If so can someone post the things i need to type or direct me to the post if its already been posted? Thank you!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] fachadick:
I'm not sure, but I don't think so. I know you can push the files with adb, but I don't know how the temp root will come into play. as I understand it, temp root means that everything is reset when you reboot the phone. if that's the case, then no - because changing the system font files would require rebooting in order for them to "take", and rebooting with temp root will just reset the fonts back to the default.

I'll try and put together some adb commands for you to try later that may work.

Sent from my blah blah blah blah
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Sweetlittlehugs:
Thank you. I may have to go through the full root process but if i could get this to work id prefer that.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] fachadick:
OK - to push these fonts through ADB, you would do the following (remember to leave a space between ttf and /system in the steps below);

1: open up the fontpack of the font you want to load and extract all three ttf files from the system/fonts folder. Put these files in your android-sdk-windows\tools folder.

2: adb remount

3: adb push Clockopia.ttf /system/fonts/Clockopia.ttf

4: adb push DroidSans.ttf /system/fonts/DroidSans.ttf

5: adb push DroidSans-Bold.ttf /system/fonts/DroidSans-Bold.ttf

6: adb reboot

I just tested this and it should work. Again though, ymmv due to the temp root - let us know how it works out after you try it. Good luck!
