I have a few fonts (.tff files) that I'd like to add to my VZN G7E. Is there a way for me to get it done that doesn't require root?

Sure if you want to do it the easy way.
Not sure how I ended up here, but check out the link in my sig. Over 200 flashable fontpacks that should work on your device.
I want to know how to change system font w/wo root.
Is there anyone to know?
I assume w/wo means with or without.
With root, you can replace /system/fonts/DroidSans.ttf and DroidSans-Bold.ttf. You can use same ttf for both files but both have to be replaced.

Thanks. So I have to root it to do. How about without root? I had a galaxy tab and there is font option on display, so I can just install .apk file for new font. Any easy way?

I have it in my Froyo phone as well but there is no display-> fonts setting in HC. Root seems to be the only way to change fonts at this time.
Hi, is it possible to replace system font by another?without installing additional apps? Where are system fonts stored?

iFont from Play lets you download hundreds of font types and sizes without root, install in settings/display/font types. Fonts are located in /system/fonts afaik btw
I would have to agree with previous. ifint is really good. just follow instructions. works best on rooted devices but no need for rooted with it. works great on stock too

Great support. Thank you very much!!!
To my chosen font. Only some of the apps accept my chosen one.
Thanks
You need root access to change your device fonts.
with root access you can set/apply any ttf fonts.

Yes, I have root. Then where do I get the font files to replace the stock font files in /system?

Simple search on Play Store will find font changing apps, but from what you want not every app will change to the new system fonts when applied.
I've not yet found any way to change the fonts so that every app will change to the new system fonts applied. Some apps must have the fonts in the app and will not change.
Cheers

Find your faorite font here https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/themes/fonts-flashable-zips-t3219827 download and flash Via TWRP
I found a free app that does the job. It's called iFont and its what I've used on multiple devices (Nexus 6P, LG G3) for well over a year now. It has a garbage UI and ads and it's probably granting itself (and China) power of attorney over all your financial assets but it does two things very well:
1) Browse and download a ton of different fonts from within the app
2) Install/backup/restore the font
It's a better selection of fonts than I've seen in any other app or on the web itself. The file it downloads is an .APK that you can just manually extract to grab the .TFF file inside if you'd like. With Xposed, supposedly it lets you do per-app fonts and also color but haven't tested that. On some phones like the S3 and S4 apparently you dont even need root or to reboot to make it work in some capacity.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kapp.ifont&hl=en
Why not use substratum + TypeFace app from the Store? Not even reboot is necessary. And with the app mentioned you can make substratum theme with ANY font you find on web.
ROM Toolbox makes it simple to change font systemwide.

Hey Guys ,
I know that there are ways to change font for rooted android ,
I tried Fixfont and ifont
However ifont shows error 7 when i change font and fixfont changes the font but only the basic fonts but others as clock , notification panel, status bar, launcher , etc there fonts are not changed any one can solve this issue...
Sorry for bad english
If your phone already rooted, you can change it manually using file explorer.
That's what I do with my phone.
Just navigate to system/fonts and replace all the files listed below to change the font including clock, notification panel, etc. Set the permission to rw-r-r
AndroidClock
DroidSans-Bold
DroidSans
Roboto-Black
Roboto-BlackItalic
Roboto-Bold
Roboto-BoldItalic
Roboto-Italic
Roboto-Light
Roboto-LightItalic
Roboto-Medium
Roboto-MediumItalic
Roboto-Regular
Roboto-Thin
Roboto-ThinItalic
RobotoCondensed-Bold
RobotoCondensed-BoldItalic
RobotoCondensed-Italic
RobotoCondensed-Light
RobotoCondensed-LightItalic
RobotoCondensed-Regular
Backup all your files and fonts first in case of something happens, and make sure the font weight are same before you trying to replace it. (i.e replace Roboto-Bold with Bold font).
I'm not responsible if your device bootloop or softbrick.

Sorry. Can't help you with that. But if bootloop I suggest you flash the stock firmware using MiFlash. Much easy.

I'm not sure. But you can try search from here.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/themes/fonts-flashable-zips-t2964304
Btw, all the previous font that I used doesn't have all the mentioned files. I just make a copy of the files with the same weight and renamed it. For example, Roboto-Bold, DroidSans-Bold, and RobotoCondensed-Bold is all the same files. Only with different name.
for rooted phone please try fonster app its working super fine, ifont throws some error 7. when changing the fonts.
