Change font problem - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Friends
I am facing a very strange problem. I've been using my SGSII for the past two years, from GB time up to JB XXLSJ leaked ROM time and on every one of the ROMs which I installed I could change the pre-installed Persian font to a certain font that I liked. As you can guess the default Persian font which comes with ROMs is not that great.
It is a few days that I have got my N4 and now when I put that same font into N4 , it shows some strange symbols instead of right characters ! this font doesnt work on N4 with android 4.2.1
I can confirm it was working fine up to android 4.1.2 which I had on my SGS 2 ! how is that possible ? does anyone has a clue ? AFAIK TTF files are standard. aren't they ?
I attach the font which I am using to this post.
Regards

Not sure why this would be happening, but how about installing rom toolbox and scrolling through the vast list of fonts it has and seeing if something is similar or even exactly the font you want?

Hello
this is an answer to your question in the ROM development thread.
But I don´t have the permission to post there.
Please add this answer to your question:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1823748
I flashed with OCTANS using a XP-notebook - that works fine.
my target was: sense rom with German keyboard (üÖÄ…)
I tried different roms, but one had no office, one or two don´t work the wifi reliable.
finally I quit with the sense-UI and come to:
Rapid_B7610_JC2_Sense_V3_Build-29020
http://www.modaco.com/topic/307676-noobody-and-rapid-sense-25-rom/
the downloadlink still works and is free.
you need a .csc
one I found here: Fluid_v2.0 ITA.7z
http://forum.hdblog.it/f63/[rom-gt-b7610]-wm-6-5-3-fluidx-build-23103-nickg-17838/
and an other (which I am using)
CSC_B7610NXXIL4.zip
e.g http://www.bergfiles.com/i/bf590123d5hdi0
Flashing the rom I choose German as the destinated language (it is available in OCTANS)
but it start with english and sense-UI
In the "seetings" you can choose "language" . changing here to German it is something like a internal flashing. the Sense-UI is gone.
with this .csc the German keyboard work like it should. Press key a´ü and u --> ü.
and wifi and 3G work reliable.
(No Senese-UI, but really good)
best regards
Bernd
Well i just finished configuring the normal ROM. So i guess i'll stick with that now.

here you go http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2701405
yes you can replace the icons under windows folder. but you can not just copy and paste because they are system protected. you need a special program to flash them during reboot/log off. average difficulty process. pm me for more details if interested.
what is touchwiz?

[Q] AOKP JB 4.1.2 - How to change hardware keyboard layout to german?

Hello everybody,
two days ago I found this rom (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1906026) and installed it - successfully ... so far. The rom works much better than my previous one (tezet's CM10) and has even more options. But I can't get one thing working. It's the layout for the hardware-keyboard. I can type but online letters from a-z. Z and Y are correct positioned (as on the german keyboard) but when I press alt oder left-shift and then try to type a number or a special character, nothing happens except that two little arrows appear at top and bottom of the cursor pointing to its center.
What I tried to solve this problem:
- Changed languages at the settings-panel to german whereever I found such a setting
- Installed this layout-file: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=32586129&postcount=35
- Extracted, copied and overwrote all files from the folder /system/usr/keylayout off of the rom I used before where everything worked fine
Unfortunately since I'm new to this site I do not yet have privileges to post right in the thread of that rom. So I'm sorry I opened another one. I hope for sympathy and help.
Big thanks in advance,
parameta
Sorry if my answer will be of little help, but here it goes.
I understand that you cannot access any special character without Alt. Have you tried by long-pressing a button ?
Furthermore, the QWERTZ keyboard is not supported yet for AOKP for Milestone 2, see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=32029006&postcount=3.
The latest build of your ROM was released on 2012-10-15, but it is based on CM10 which has seen 4 builds since that date, including a really major one. I suggest you ask Megalith27 to release a new version of his ROM, based on the all-newest CM10. (Maybe I'll do that if I learn how to do it.) However I don't know whether that will solve your problem or not.
I understand this response is not so helpful, but I didn't want to leave you without any sign of life for ages.
Tschüss !

You will be able to get a qwertz keyboard in this Rom for sure.
just follow this link, and download my qwertz file. replace it as described. It will work. But replace just that one file. Not all the files as you have done!!!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=32586129&postcount=35
So reflash the rom zip in recovery, and do it again. You will get all the olf files back, this way.
If you want to read this how to in german, please send me a pm. I will give you another link....
I'm sorry for my late reply, but here I am.
First of all, thank you for your answers.
@Agmenor:
Yes I tried long pressing and this way I get the usual small window with offers some special characters and letters. But that's not very comfortable.
I believe, if Megalith27 had to compile a new version auf this ROM that would be too much of an effort with too little use. But thank you anyway.
@lulli1
Will I be able to write letters and special characters with your linked files or will I only get a quertz layout? Typing special characters and letters without switching to the softkeyboard or long pressing buttons is one of my demands on this rom.
By the way, do I know you from android-hilfe.de? If yes, call me "MalzMalz", that's me. If not, ignore this line.

[SOLVED] Clock hour minute separator one dot only

Hi all!
As you can see in the screenshot, I have a problem with the hour/minute separator. It appears with one dot only, instead of two dots like this: hour:minute.
This problem appeared some months ago, after flashing the first supernexus release (4.4.2) for i9505.
Just after flashing it without changing my self any config.
After that i make severe wipe data and flashed stock Samsung roms with odin and my own custom rom with no luck. It still here.
How can I revert it? Where is this setting?
Please help!

What previously like that?
In my tablets and in S4 is like that
no different from the previous
Before flashing supernexus I always have hour format like this:
14:00
Now I have 14.00
The question is how can I change it to have hour format with : separator.
Hi all!
Problem solved:
In English or Spanish language, clock separator shows with :
Catalan language shows clock separator with only one dot. Try to change it to catalan language and you see that...
And now, the question is WHY? Why some languages shows separator with one dot and others two??????
WTF
PD: Of course, the problem is not supernexus.

Maybe, some country have different hours formats
I don't know other countries. But not in catalonia (catalan language). Same format that Spain here.
Maybe it's a translation error...
