I'll take a look, but all these packs do is replace three files in your fonts folder. They don't touch any other part of the phone. As far as missing characters, are those same characters also missing in the old version? What about other fonts? Comfortaa is one of the more complete fonts out there.

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] fachadick:
Sure, but not by me - those are commercial fonts. You can use the instructions linked to in post 2 to create your own though. :)

Before that I only use SonySketch ... And everything was smooth, this only happens only when the name of the app doesn't fit all in the normal space, so it put this ??? points instead of ... , I saw it 2 or 3 times more in a few spots, but don't know what they are replacing... Maybe I will test normal Comfortaa, or other font, but they are a lot and i don't know where I begin xD
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] emelie:
maybe something went wrong with the conversion.. i'll have a look at it.

EDIT: by tiny are you talking about size (pt/em/..) or thickness of the glyphs?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] fachadick:
The glyphs themselves are fine, its the size itself that's too small to be usable. Pretty sure that's the font itself - you would need to increase the size of each glyph for it to be usable. That goes back to the fact that Android has no way to increase font size. Thanks again though!

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] emelie:
alright gonna do that tomorrow.

i played around with the scaling-feature of fontforge a lot today - should only be a matter of minutes.

i would go with a 3% increase - what's your opinion? it would be cool if you have a screenshot for measuring purposes (i haven't had time to flash it yet).

set me up this font please

here is the font, sick capital vice... could you set it up for me please?

I have the HTC Aria

thanks,

Alex
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] fachadick:
Here you go, but seriously, make sure you have the stock fontpack downloaded first. This one's a little...messy. :)

FontPack-SickCapitalVice.zip

Interestingly enough, after looking at it for awhile, it almost works. In case anyone wants to see what it looks like, it's this one.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] alex4659:
How to?

how do you flash fonts?

BTW: thanks for setting up the sick capitol vice font for me.

thanks

Alex
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] fachadick:
No prob :)

this should work for the Aria;

Short answer - through recovery. Long answer below.

1 - root phone

2 - download and install Rom Manager from the market

3 - download the fontpack you like and throw it on the sdcard somewhere

4 - in Rom Manager, select Install Rom From SD Card

5 - Navigate to the fontpack and select it

6 - When asked, backup if you haven't recently, and don't wipe anything

7 - Press OK to Reboot And Install

I get this also and i've tried a few of the fonts now and they all seem to do it, running a ZTE blade by the way
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] fachadick:
If I had to guess, I'd say that the blade doesn't use the standard ellipsis character when text is cut off, and uses something unusual instead. Either that, or it adds a special character after the standard ellipsis. Sorry guys.

Does this work for HTC Touch Diamond WM 6.1?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] fachadick:
Windows mobile? No. I would imagine there's a way to install the fonts, but I don't know it. If you have Android loaded, it may work with Rom manager, but you'll probably need to push the fonts into the font folder manually.

I was made some experiments and I finnaly got something good, but there it is as U wish xD

1º it's Ubuntu10.10 - again the strange dots.

2º DroidSans, the stock font - work good as should be.

3º Normal Ubuntu, again the same error!

4º Normal Comfortaa, curious this letter don0t give any kind of error, at least for now, it will be my letter for now on 'cause it's not to big and works fine!

PS: I used DejaVu and SansationLight - DejaVu gives the error, SansationLight don't give any error, it's very beatiful too, but unfortunately it's too big for my small screen and messes with my layout!

Thanks fachadick for keeping this thread updated!

I've just tried Storopia on my Samsung Epic 4G, and it rocks.

Again, surprised to see that Storopia didn't earn any star from you :D

So far, my 2 best fonts in terms of readability and professional-look are "Aller" and "Storopia".
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] fachadick:
You're right about aller, still need to put some stars on that one, but I just don't care for steropia. If you like the blocky look, try zekton or orbitron. For a real underated usable font though, take a look at Decker. :)

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] tonysohn:
IMHO, Zekton looks much better than steopia but too bad it breaks up on special characters...

Orbitron is too big for me.

Decker is really a nice font. Using it now as my default.

Thanks for your suggestions!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] John_Q:
How do I make it flashable? I found a font I'd like to try out called Veggieburger on fontsquirrel.com It's an .otf font so I used font creater and saved as a .ttf After that I reaplaced the .ttf Comfotaa font with the Veggieburger one. I flashed the zip, but the font didn't change. Any ideas why?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] fachadick:
Off the top of head, no. But I'll take a look when I get to a comp and try it myself, and post the pack here.

Sent from my blah blah blah blah
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] John_Q:
Thanks. I checked there is only 233 glyphs with the Veggieburger font a lot less than the comfortaa one. I thought maybe that it had something to do with it. I don't know if there if a minimal allowed when installing fonts.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] fachadick:
Nah, no minimum, I think some of these have less than 100. Comfortaa just happens to be one of the more complete fonts - that's one of the reasons its so popular (other than the fact that it looks so good). It's hard to believe the the guy behind it doesn't create fonts professionally - he just put it out on his deviantart page, and it took off.

Sent from my blah blah blah blah

edit - You know what's great? I was able to set up both of these fontpacks (because that font comes in both light and medium, and I thought light looked a little thin), test them both, upload them both to mediafire, and now I'm posting this. All remotely, using nothing but my evo. Couldn't even think of doing any that with my old phone. :D

It's a bit small, but nice font - thanks for the tip. Not sure why it wasn't working on your end :)

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] John_Q:
Thanks man really appreciate it looks good on my Evo. I used Spare Parts to enlarge the font. I searched the OP for a font called Planer and it's not there. Is there anything similar to it available? I'll try to make it into a zip if need be.

http://webdesignledger.com/freebies/10-new-high-quality-free-fonts-for-your-designs

Can I just swap out the .ttf from another zip and flash it? Just making sure there's nothing I missed.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] fachadick:
Spare parts to enlarge the font? I'm jealous - that doesn't work on the evo. What phone are you using?

It's funny you brought up that link, I already had it bookmarked ;). To answer your question, yes, and you can check out post 2 for details (or pm me if you have any questions). Here's Planer;

FontPack-Planer.zip

I may do a bit of a mini-update with that one and a few others tonight with screens - they look nice on the phone.

BTW, I also have a holiday update planned for this weekend full of Christmas and Chanukah fonts. Why not dress up your phone for the holidays, right?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] John_Q:
Thats weird Spare parts doesn't work for you. I think it came installed on the Evio2 or the Carbon Fiber ROM can't remember. I recently switched to Myn's ROM and had to install it again, downloaded through marketplace.Works fine
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] fachadick:
A ton of people have tried this - when you get Spare Parts from the market and go to that setting it says "Font Size - Overall size of fonts, this only works within this screen." And when you change the size and exit Spare Parts, the font size is back to where it was.

Are you saying that doesn't happen on certain roms? :confused: Can anyone else confirm this? I would love a rom that allowed you to change the font size.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] emelie:
I'd like to see Molengo if that's possible ;)

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] fachadick:
free decko fonts are a bit hard to come by - I'll see what I can find though. Caviar dreams has sort of a similar look, you may want to take a look at that one.

I've seen that too - in fact I normally have two in my app drawer, the one that came with the rom, and one that I downloaed from the market. He said he got it working on myn's with the one from the market though - but I've been testing this on myns throughout the day, and couldn't get it to work. Sorry, but I'm going to have to file this under "not working", until we get some additional conformation. I really wanted it to work too. :(

I discovered what the strange images are that people have been seeing in their app drawer.

Look at the app in my drawer Wallpaper Set and Save. See the strange line? For some fonts, there must be something that causes those weird little images to appear instead of a sequence of three periods. I've noticed it in the Market as well, when it says "Starting download..." but instead of those dots, it whatever funky symbol the font pack wants to make it. I don't know if this will get you anywhere, fachadick, or if it's even useful for me to point this out, but I know where they're coming from now. :)

haven't been able to get to a comp yet, but from what your saying it sounds like I didn't sign those right. I'll check it when I can, but the latest version of amonra (1.8) doesn't require signed zips, so you can try that until I can fix them.

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] fachadick:
I noticed you were on a hero, but you said you had amonra 1.7, so I went with it :)

These should work with just about any Android phone - the good news is that if any work, they should all work (unless you're running miui, that Rom has some font issues in the non-evo versions). I'll resign them when I get home and you can try again.

Btw, I always use amon ra also, except for these. I flash fonts so often, and these packs are so basic, that I use Rom manager to flash them. I have an old clockwork nand handy just in case, and when I'm done flashing fonts, I switch back to amonra.

fachadick:

if it hasn't already been mentioned (if it has, i apologize profusely), but the ubuntu font doesn't seem to have all the characters and i get the placement boxes in some of my app titles in the app drawer. for those as picky about aesthetics as i am, just wanted to give you a heads up on this.

other than that, carry on with your fine work.

Cool thanks, just downloaded them I'll let you know.

sent from my hero, which no longer sucks ass
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] fachadick:
I've tested each and every one of these on my evo, and they should all work with no bootloops. Based on your sig, it looks like you're using an evo also - which rom are you using? The bootloops were only occurring with an older version of MIUI, but it was updated specifically to be able to use these fontpacks.

those boxes are why I test each font on my phone - there's not much that can be done about it. It means that the font is incomplete, and there are glyphs missing. I've tested fonts that look great for the most part, but show the box instead of punctuation, the degrees symbol, even numbers. I generally skip over those, and don't add them.

Which version of ubuntu are you referring to? The newest one hasn't been released as a standalone font yet and had to be ripped, that might have something to do with it. Can you post a screen though? All of the common characters should be there, and I was actually using ubuntu as my main font for a while, and didn't notice any boxes at all.

i figured as much. i have the ubuntu 10.10 font zip (not sure if that's the latest one). i'd get you a screenshot, but work has my hands tied at the moment. i'm not sure what the boxes are placements for though. they seem to occur after the "..." of long app titles.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] fachadick:
That seems to be a common place for the boxes - I'm almost positive that either android or the app itself puts a special character after the ellipses (...) in the app drawer, because i've recieved reports of exactly that. I can't seem to figure out what character they're trying to add though - or even if it happens on all roms, or all apps with no long names. I just flashed 10.10 again, and I see the elipses fine in my app drawer, with no boxes. What apps do you see it on?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] -shift-:
ah damn, i took it off, but, if i recall correctly, chrome-to-phone, fast web installer, instant heart rate, sd card speed tester, and so on.. i think you're right, android adds a character at the end of the "...". i'll research it a bit more later, but it bothered the crap out of me, so i'm back at the stock font for now.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] fachadick:
I'll take a look at those apps, but if you like the straightforward look of basic sans (like stock or ubuntu) my next update will contain fonts that I'm calling the executive collection. Very professional, very crisp looking fonts. Also, take a look at Decker - it's already been posted, and will also be listed in the exec collection.

Sent from my blah blah blah blah
