Every time I try to install a font it shows up I the list of fonts under display settings but when I select it I get an error saying font not supported would you like to uninstall. I've used ifont and hifont from playstore.

Common bug, error, issue. Hopefully Samsung addresses it soon. I am rooted and change fonts without issues though.
Whatever theme is that BTW?

Resize navbar

I wonder if there is a way to resize the navbar. I am not talking about hiding it, only resize the original one. I already tried auto hide soft keys app and couple of others but the problem is they designed to be hidden since they overlap the page content.

That exactly what i am looking for thank you.
Only problem with resizing the navbar is,that you will need to do that every time a new rom is available.The navbars are only working with the given rom they are supposed to launch.I have found that a nice way to resize it without doing anything is to change the DPI with a program.Its will make the navbar small and you can make the icons bigger to have a similar outcome as before.
and...
...it does not work with our international version either.

The bigger icons you can make from the phone itself from what i remember,the DPI program is texDroider,only problem i saw its that the camera doesnt adjust on the new DPI while everything else i tried so far is normal.But it can be solved too with xposed framework and a mod (app settings 1.5) that can put the camera or everything else you choose in 480 DPI mode.
please some one know the way , please make it work with D802 model

I cant provide any photo,cause that was what i did before,now im with another setup.I didnt change the DPI of the navbar,(i dont know where/what to look for to do so,might be possible tho if someone knows what to look for..) i changed the DPI of the whole phone,so the navbar became small.And the icons became bigger from the Ui itself,it does have an option to do so.

I dont think that you can just change the DPI of the frameworkres.apk,from the program,and it will work just like that..I saw they got it modded in order for it to work.Not sure tho since im not familiar with these things.

[Q] What app to change dpi for regular sized dialer?

OK. So, I know I've done this before but can't remember how. I changed my system wide dpi but my dialer is awfully small. What app(s) do I need to change back with Wanam to fix it? I thought it was contacts but that's not doing the job...
Thnx!

The Xposed module you're looking for is called App Settings.

Sorry for being unclear. What apps must I change back with app settings for the dialer to be properly sized?

It should be SecPhone or just Phone.
I just figured out that my App Settings will not enable under module settings. It says, in red text, "This module requires a newer XposedBridge (52) and thus cannot be activated."
I tried to update my xposed installer framework to no avail. Perhaps it's not out yet?

Custom Navigation Bar -- Pixel Icons?

Hey Everyone,
Followed the instructions from here (https://www.xda-developers.com/add-custom-buttons-to-nav-bar-on-samsung-galaxy-s8-galaxy-s8/) to install Custom Navigation Bar on my AT&T S8.
Had no issues until I tried to add in custom pixel icons to replace the standard system ones using this guide (https://www.xda-developers.com/how-to-change-your-nav-bar-icons-or-re-arrange-the-buttons-without-root/)
I downloaded the icons for a 1440p display and got them to show up, replacing the standard icons but every time I touched one of the navbar icons I got a system UI crash. Anyone know if this is an issue with using incorrectly sized icons or if it's just an issue with icon replacement in the navbar on the S8 right now?
I hope that was just a minor issue as i also would like to have the Pixel NavBar on my S8. The S8 navbar could not be seen on some good wallpapers and i really like to have the Pixel look in this phone. Someone uploaded the S8 NavBar, maybe you could copy its format.

Any update on this? Are you able to make it work?
I haven't had any luck yet but I'm not an expert, I can follow ADB instructions easily but don't know enough to troubleshoot myself unfortunately. I'm hoping it's just a matter of time before someone figures it out.
Not working on Touchwiz (S8 is partially supported) think that gives it away in the thread of the app

Good catch -- I just noticed that. Figured Touchwiz was supported since the app was recently updated with S8 support in the app notes. Bummer.

Theme resetting to default

Hi, I've noticed an odd issue where the theme resets to default after a while. I feel like the whole launcher and system UI restarts?
It's a really annoying issue. Not unlocked and not rooted.

No it happens regardless of the theme selected. Even on default theme + different wallpaper, it happens. And resets itself to default wallpaper.
So this doesn't happen to anyone else then?

It hasn't happened to me. I use default theme with different wallpaper both on lock screen and home screen. It's fine.
I found the issue myself. I had a custom font installed. This caused the theme to be reverted. Once I came back to the default font, I can change the other settings as I please.
Thanks to everyone for the help.
Same happened to me. I try to use third party themes using different theme editor (ex. Mi Rape, MIUI Theme Editor, My Themer, etc. ..). It works actually and third party theme is applied. However, after a while, it reverts back to default theme.
Any advise how can this be fixed?

THIS IS THE SOLUTION
1. Open the theme app and select the default theme.
2. Look at the bottom of the screen and UNCHECK Lock screen, Favorite tray, and Icons options leaving only the General option.
3. Then Select Apply
4. Go back and select the theme you actually want.
5. CHECK the Lock screen, Favorite tray, and Icon options
6. Select Apply
7. Theme is now applied and will not revert to the old theme.
NOTE: This condition of reverting to the default theme developed after changing font on Redmi note 8
Hi, thank you.
But is there a solution that I can change the General option, because I want the costum Notification Bar?
Hi everyone.
I'm still not solved this issue that whole launcher and system UI restarts and resets itself to default lock screen.
I only changed to custom font in the Option->Theme->font at the Resion/India after load the font using the app called "MIUI custom font Installer"
Is there any other solution besides rooting?
Unlocked and not rooted. MIUI Global version 11.0.9

I was experiencing this issue a while ago. But I might've kinda fixed it because it's been 6 hours and my theme isn't resetting.
What I did was applying the stock font (roboto), then apply any theme that I download from theme store and check all the options (lockscreen, icons, system, etc), and reboot. After that I change my font back to what I was using before.
I'm in miui 12.0.3.0 and I'm using Mi 9T.

I think it's because of your unsupported font. This happens even with unsupported emoji set(bitmap font).

Change app icons not changed by samsung (icon) themes

Hello,
I wanted to ask how to change icons on home screen of apps that dont get changed by official samsung store themes without using another launcher. Id need to save the icons first, and then replace them by edited versions. Kind of creating my own icon set. Is this even possible? Do I have to root my device this for?
Thanks in advance for every help.

If you want to replace the default icons for each individual app you can't as the icons image file is stored in the .apk file and replacing them is not worth it......if you want to create an icon pack you will need a 3rd party launcher for using it or you can create a theme that works on Samsung store.....at least that's my understanding.....
