I think you're just really bad at asking questions. It doesn't seem like anybody knows what you are talking about.

That or maybe you are bad at reading. I said "custom" fonts, which means the 1000 or so others that are not preloaded on the S5. Like using apps like Bytafont or Fontswap to change fonts. Typically root is required to do this.

Or you can buy them through Samsung by following the path I posted. Unless you can't afford them, then I would just wait for a rom.

Thanks for your input.....
I installed HiFont and then download a font file online. Then I put the font into the folder that the app tells you to, then you can set it as default from there. I'm using Ubuntu Light as my system font.

You can change the font style and font size on your device. To change the font settings, from the Home screen, touch Menu Menu key > Settings Settings Shortcut > My device Settings Device Tab Icon > Display Settings Display Icon . Touch Font Style and choose from Default font, Choco cooky, Cool jazz, Rosemary, or Samsung Sans. Touch Get fonts online to download new fonts from Google Play Store.
Touch Font size and choose from Tiny up to Huge. When you select Huge, the font may be shown only in certain applications. In applications that cannot support Huge font size, Large font size will be used instead. :cyclops:

I tried those fonts from that app in the market, the free one Link. The thing is some of the fonts make the celsius value of the accuweather widget to move out of the widget area. It is a good app. Has a lot of variety of fonts but in my opinion maybe the fonts were not selected for galaxy s2.
There should be a simpler way of just getting the font that we want on the phone select font>select size. done.
i looked through the root folders today but only found the droid fonts and not those i installed from the fontomizer app. All i can find are the apks. Can someone suggest a location.

Thanks zsig For This Awesome Find :::::

Ok, I managed to install custom fonts on my phone.
Here's how to:
1) Install the app iFont (from the google Play Store)
2) Run the app (it should create a folder on your files) and then close it
3) Place your custom font .apk file on the root of that folder
4) Run iFont again, select the "Local" tab. Your font should be there. Select it and tap "Set".
The app will require you to reboot your phone. When you do, it's done.

Generally you need to have root access and then you can drop any fonts you want to have available on the phone in the /system/fonts folder

I have a Sprint GS4 and was just searching for an answer for this because i have the same problem on the Sprint GS4. It just says this font is unavailable. I saved a bunch from my SGS3 and none of thek work. I even tried ones from the play store.

I am using a international (singapore) version of galaxy s4 and i also have the same problem. Flip fonts gets installed correctly but couldn't use it.
Just for the info, my set also uses the same qualcomm chipset and not the exonys version.
Fonts wont work
Every font I've tried to install on my Galaxy S 4 hasn't work. Please let us know if anyone has a solution!!
So I've started a conversation with Samsung Support about the issue. They said they are going to research it and get back to me soon. It took forever for them to understand what I was trying to say! I'll keep you guys posted on any new info they give me. Makes no sense why it was so effortless with the GS3 and Note 2, but it gives us a problem on the S4!

I am having the same issue too. Hope to see Samsung's favourable reply and fix soon! Wanted to have more options of fonts.
Just a quick update guys, i did install some fonts from samsung apps and guess what it can be used without any font not available issues?
Samsung took out the bookmark sync options, now fonts also works only from samsung apps store. Are they forcing us to use their app store rather than google play?

Try some of the fonts found in this search: ["Free Font Apps" "Galaxy S4" "4-font"]
(Copy and paste everything in the brackets)
We are working on releasing more fonts compatible with the S4 and Note 3.
Let me know if you have any issues and if you would like to see any particular styles in the future.

They only thing I've found to work is an app called iFont that downloads the fonts you want then you just set it.

I aware iFont works ... but the resources suck up a lot of memory ... anyone know what is the actual issue on free flipfont not working on 4.3 ?
You can find the font Switcher for 4.2+ devices here:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.monotype.android.font.pack.switcher
In order to set the font you must first set your phone's font to one of the pre-installed fonts other than the default font. Then try using the Switcher to set the font.
The other option you have is to try some of our other fonts that are compatible with 4.2.2
Please use the button in the Switcher app to find these apps. *Here are a few examples:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.monotype.android.font.pack.handsome
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.monotype.android.font.pack.simple
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.monotype.android.font.pack.scroll
Finf compatible fonts via font switcher then select font via system font selector
Let me know if it works.

I hope so..
On my s3 with stock rom (this does not work with cm), i am able to change the font.
Try this and let me know:
1. Use a root explorer (remember to enable read and write)
2. Copy https://www.dropbox.com/s/fpc6zxd2wiqci8o/DroidSansFallback.ttf
3. to device/ system/ fonts
4. Reboot and enjoy
Thats right, i didnt say backup first. I dont wanna insult anyones intelligence :laugh:

It's a font. It gives you system wide black and white iOS Emoji. Try it, restore a backup if you don't like it

add a line to it (build.prop under the system folder)
ro.sf.lcd_density=<value>
default value is 480.
just a tip: do not take it below 380. Long pressing the home button for recents menu wont work and a lot of apps like swiftkey will go back to their default sizes and things will start looking ugly..
Thanks mate. Any idea how to change font size and type?

Size usually decreases with dpi. There is one option in the settings. As for font, use rom toolbox.
Also, please use the thanks button instead of posting it..

I was wanting to do the same but when you say add a line to it, what do you mean, I was thinking maybe to the build.prop file under system folder but I wanted to be sure.
