I´m root in my Oneplus Two, and downloaded texdroider_dpi and Root DPI Changer.
Neither works!!
I tried too change build.prop, but ro.sf.lcd_density or another density value don´t appears.
Any solution for change DPI in OP2?
Thanks!
Hey,
i use a flashable zip. Download it from here: http://www5.zippyshare.com/v/RvfbVEkr/file.html
to edit the DPI, open the .zip and go to folder tmp and edit the "misc" file with a text editor.
after this you can flash it trough recovery

What DPI did you set it to, and have you experienced any issues with your custom DPI so far?

I set 380 DPI, and I have not found errors for now.
350 DPI, the default one in the zip, I´m encounter all the system elements too small.

Can you post some pictures? I would be interesting to see the effect before I commit to flashing.

I´m newbie and I can´t post pictures yet, sorry.
But I seen a few mistakes in some apps, but I don´t know if problem of Oxygen OS or DPI.
Some apps like Solid Explorer or PocketCast get default Dark Theme.
That is, even if they are placed in Light theme in settings app , stay in dark theme and I can´t change this no way. This is case of Pocket Cast.
In Solid Explorer case, it stay in light theme, but text are in white and can´t read nothing. I must put the app in dark theme to use it .
It is all very strange .

I see no prob with 380 all apps work as before and no fcs till now
I don't have any intentions to advertise, but recently I published a DPI Changer app to Play Store which by default sets DPI using local.prop method(works fine on COS12 and OxygenOS on OnePlus One) and also has an option to set it via build.prop method. I positively believe it would work for OnePlus Two too, if not I would love some feedback.

Easiest way is adding the line ro.sf.lcd_density=380 in the build.prop

The way I did it was going in and adding the ro.sf.lcd_density=380 to the build.prop myself as for some reason it wasn't there. Then I connected the OPT to the computer and used the ADB Command Prompt (adb shell wm density 380) to change the DPI as well.
I had to do this because if I used an app to change the DPI the keyboards would screw up and be incredibly large and unusable.
Can someone please post some screenshots? Thank you in advance

Le DPI working fine in Oneplus 2 (oxygen 2.0.1) using BUILD. PROP.
thanks
my experience with the app " The DPI "
First I tried with the second function of the app (BUILD. PROP) and restarting the phone had a bootloop.
Fortunately I had a Nbackup
According to the first attempt I tried the first method off the app , rebooted and nothing changed then I tried again the BUILD. PROP and it worked!
perhaps the first method have created something away for work the second method

If you go to play store and download ifont, you can change font as changing theme.
I installed ifont. Downloaded a font and 'set' it. Then I applied it in theme manager. But the font hasn't changed..?

It works for me on NXT-L29C636B170. Do check the version of ifont, only the latest work.
Same problem here also. No option to change font thru settings, and with ifont when I download and set a custom font but nothing actually changes. ifont on latest version. Any workaround?
Thanks!
There is fonts style under display
For me there are indeed font style under display
I also have this problem ...
all was fine until i downloaded & Apllied the Android N Theme
since then the font option in display menu & in themes Manger is gone
i can not change the font and it seems that the emojies in sms app are also gone because it shows me emojies in black an white !!
please help
Thank you for your answer.
Yes you are correct: I updated to 180 (now Im also on C900B180) and the font style appeared.
However, still no any luck with ifont. Are you rooted? Which rom did you use to update? Maybe this is a rom based issue...
When the font setting is not present, without root the only way to change fonts is using themes containing a new font.
But only few themes contains fonts, and most of them have funny fonts and/or make also unwanted changes to other system UI items (like the status bar icons).
Going back from a theme installing fonts is not easy, as the default Huawei themes don't contain the stock font.
Anyway, knowing the theme structure, one could prepare his own theme with the desired font.

It depends on the cust configuration used by your phone and the hw_oem configuration for your phone. I've patched that for the users of my KangVIP Slim ROM. But if your phone is not rooted there's no way to change it if the ROM you've flashed has <string hw_hide_font_style="true"/>
in the hw_defaults.xml files that are used. You've to set that to false in for example cust/hw/eu/xml/hw_defaults.xml and all parent configs used by the eu config or any other you want to patch. /cust/hw/normal is for example the parent of eu. Now you know how to bring up font feature in any Huawei ROM

So somehow i enabled the font style by accident? Because i realised. Theme that comes with fonts preinstalled allow me to change the fonts. Also themes with 8 Bit font (as an example) style some other fonts in theme doesnt work. Well now i just wait for new themes for emui, due to i having Asia (Singapore Set) i cant get more themes online, rather i need to sideload under hwthemes folder

That is very simple, your phone is using a cust folder where this option is set to false. I guess you're on B180 international. The cust folder in the ROM you've flashed is the reason that you could choose the font, not any theme you've installed. With modding cust files it's possible to enable theme download on any ROM, too, by the way ?

Hi,
my phone model is L29 and running on rom B180. I changed the <string hw_hide_font_style="true"/> to false in cust/hw/normal/xml/hw_defaults.xml and cust/hw/spcseas/xml/hw_defaults.xml, after that the font style option did appeared in display and theme manager, however there is only one default font to choose even there are plenty of fonts files under system/fonts/. Any idea where should I save the fonts files?
that are the systemfonts, you'll only get more if you install themes containing fonts, or fontpacks you could find for example in huawei club forum, maybe on xda too. These fonts are packed within hwt files too.

If you're root, you can use HiFont (and not iFont) app, avalaible in Google Play, to change system font.
Hi guys!
I am in Stock Rom 5.8.021s with Root/ULB/TWRP and want to change the font. Are there any pack/ flash zip to do this or just take any app from Gplay that can do this? I am coming from MIUI (Redmi 3s) and thats apps does not work fine on MIUI (just one works fine) and sometime lead to bootloop, so EUI and MIUI look like same, I fear to get bootloop. So, any app work fine for changing Font?
Thank! Q:highfive:
I used Ifont on the Google Play store to change the font. It didn't change just the launcher.. everything on the phone almost changed to the font I chose.

Use app "FontFix" from Playstore by JRummy. You will need root the app work very well if I want to change font I use it on all my phones.
What's the most readable font nowadays for old eyes? I maxed omnirom up to "largest" but some pages seem not to be using it.
Hey everyone,
A friend of mine just switched from iOS to Android and bought a Galaxy S8.
She doesn't like Samsung emoji and would like to get back her iOS emojis
I'm not going to root her phone (because don't want to trip her knox, void warranty and block OTA). So do you know a way to get iOS emojis without root ?
I heard that there is a way to do it with Substratum with the overlay "Status Bar icons for Samsung (+extras)". But I own this overlay and I can't find a way to enable iOS emoji.
So can anyone help me find a way to get iOS emojis on Galaxy S8 without root ?
Thanks
up ?

Not possible outside of specific apps that have their own emoji rendering like telegram. Changing system emojis globally requires root.
And yes I agree the Samsung emojis are terrible. My rom uses the Google 8.1 ones which I like much much better

You can install fonts without root. Download an ios 11 emoji font. There are apps in the playstore. Just go to your font settings and change it to the downloaded font. Reboot and you'll have ios11 emojis "systemwide"

Not compatible with Samsung Experience.
However, there is a way to do it with the substratum overlay "Status Bar Icons for Samsung (+extras)" id addition to the app called "Samsung Sans Font"
Full tutorial is available on the substratum overlay information/changelog document
But , we can change the navigation bar with an overlay apk and we cant do the same with emojis, i dont understand!!
Edit: After hours of searching i found this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8+/themes/fonts-wings-samsung-fonts-1200-root-t3710688
A simple way to get this would be to use Textra app for messaging. There are multiple styles to choose from including iOS and aside from emojis it's easily one of the best apps to use for messaging.

My God, it worked.
I used the second oreo option - with ADB and usb debugging - since the app used in the first is not for free
Found a Solution 100000% working
Download Afonts from playstore go to emojis it has ios emojis press download if it doesnt show you the install button down below I mean if u cant press download any letters font you want and then try again downloading the ios emoji font and it should show you the install button press it and go put it in your setting fonts ! It's .ttf and is the only .ttf that works!!! Only for 7.0. Nougat or 8.0 Oreo Unfortunately doesnt work on Lollipop 6.0.1 if I found for lollipop I will notice you bye
Thanks me later!!!!!!
It worked for me but it applies a generic font style for the alphabets, letters etc. Is it possible to use a specific font style for all characters and have the non-samsung emojis as well? For instance, Rosemary font with iOS emojis.

Unfortunately not, I threw in the towel and rooted in the end.
Is there any working way to customize the fonts?
Ok I found a nice Magisk modulet hat allowed to edit the fonts.
Once you set a font through magisk you can use typeface or possibly another font app to change the system font. I use Typeface with a copy of my personal favorite font. Got mine system wide this way.

Font changer 3.0.0.3 in the module section of magisk
Sent from my 8 Pro using XDA Labs
Hello - not sure this is the right place, but I haven't mucked about with my phones in the past 4, 5 years (?)
I'm currently on the OP 8 Pro, and if the only thing I wanted to do was change the font to Google/Product Sans, is this the correct way to go about it?
1. unlock bootloader (wipes system, yes?)
2. boot (not flash) twrp
3. in twrp, flash magisk zip (magisk is new to me)
4. boot system
5. use magisk manager (install apk if necessary) to change font?
And if I somehow do everything right, does rooting these days cause any problems? I try to do everything on my phone/ipad pro now so I'd like to keep the following functional:
-fingerprint/s
-banking apps
Much obliged!

font changer is on revision right now. do you have a flashable zip to share?
One of the main reasons that I rooted my new OnePlus 8 Pro was so that I could change the font (to Bauhaus).
Now that Font Changer has been removed from Magisk, is there any other way to add fonts?
Is there any way font can be customised on oneplus 8pro?
I've been using fonts available by Tulsadiver in the Pixel 4 XL forums. I just use the template and add different font files to have more fonts.
I was using font changer as well, so might try something else...
