Can we edit fonts with our current root capabilities ?

Posted this earlier in themes.
Can we adb push to /system/fonts ?
I think we have to be booted in recovery for this to work ?
Correct me if I am wrong.
Thank you.

I've done this using the app Typefresh. It has a thread in the Android software forum here at xda somewhere.
With root, you can replace the fonts, yes.. backup your old ones just in case!

I attempted this yesterday.
Mind giving a quick walkthrough ?
I basically did:
su
adb push "c:\fonts" /system/fonts
No joy- Got back adb can not be found ??
TYIA
The way I got this done is with Typefresh. There is a thread about this in here: Android Development and Hacking>Android Apps and Games>[APP]Type Fresh - change your fonts!
(Sorry, I can't post links yet. If someone else wants to repost it as a link, help yourselves.)
What I did was download a font (a Harry Potter font is not installed from the factory--heehee) and adb push it to /sdcard/Fonts. Then I opened Typefresh and click the font you want changed, in my case it was DroidSans.ttf, and it allows you to choose the font you want to change it to. I will note here that apparently some fonts do not work well and may result in a brick. DO NOT DO THIS IF YOU ARE NOT COMFORTABLE DOING IT, YOU MAY BRICK YOUR DEVICE. Luckily, there is a fix for that now.
Anyway, thanks to openback for the app.
I forgot to mention that you also need to dl andexplorer to use this app. I personally did not have a root explorer hitherto so that was fine for me.
Now my question is, how can i change the font for the homescreen, or launcher pro in my case, but leave the browser's font stock?

are you s-off? you need to be to change system fonts from phone or app. I just rename the fonts I want to use to DroidSans.ttf and DroidSans-Bold.ttf copy and paste using a root file manager into system,font and reboot.
p.s clocktopia is your lockscreen clock font so renaming any font to Clocktopia.ttf and doing same as above will change clock lockscreen font.

are you s-off?
if you are try it manually, the app should have downloaded the font to your sd card. find it and copy it to /system/font then rename it to overwrite the old ones and set permissions.
Alternatively, try a different font installer. i use absolute system tools and it works flawlessly on every rom i tried.

How to install additional fonts on the LG G2?

You can change the fonts on this phone but it doesn't seem to be as easy as it was with the Galaxy 3. I tried installing font APKs and also font apps but they don't show up. I also tried putting a fonts folder on the SD card but no luck. Anyone know how to add additional fonts?
I use Font Installer from the Play Store. Works great.
Thanks Devs. From my VZW G2.

Well, I've tried installing a couple fonts on my rooted G2 with both iFont and Font Installer, but they don't show up. Any ideas?

There are lots of flashable fonts but be careful cause you cant revert back when you flash those fonts

After you install the font, you can go into settings>display>fonts and set the font to Roboto and it will show your custom font.
In Font Installer, you can also pick one of the other fonts from the list to install over, and keep doing that until you have a whole list of custom fonts in settings. They will still have the original names but if you look at the preview you can tell what font it is.

You're right, once I set Roboto, the custom font --helvetica neue --was applied. Now my phone has a bit of "Apple flavoring" to it
im using hebrew language as my default language.
the problem is that only the English language is changing.

How to change font for rooted MI A1 ?

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.

GxFonts[Apps]. Anyone using this on Android 10?

After the update looks like its not working anymore.. sad
Yup. Not working for me too
I use GxFonts to download the fonts then move them to iFonts custom folder. Ifont works well with Q

Are you sure iFont still works? I tried to create font package with iFont and installed it, but when I tried to actually change to the font in settings, it says "Font not supported".
Using Android 10 on my Note 9 and have tried Wings and Gxfonts but neither work anymore. Anyone have any suggestions to get custom fonts on Android 10 please?

@GunnerGeezer
I was having the same problem after the latest update (Aug 2020 Security update) on ALEXNDR Rom.
Yesterday I found a way to install custom fonts in my N9.
The steps are as follows.
Install Zfont app from play store. Try installing the font normally. If it doesn't work and you are rooted with Magisk (of-course) try the following method. It worked fine for me.
But please make a back up of your ROM in recovery before flashing the font zip file | just-in-case |
Download your favorite fonts in .ttf format to the "zFont/Fonts" folder in your phone.
Then open the app and go to the right most option named "Local" on the top
Select your font there and press the "SET" button at the bottom
You will get a "Font Changing option"
Select appropriately. I tried both "Samsung" & "System Root" methods and did not work for me.
So I chose "Create Magisk module flashable zip"
Then chose "ENGLISH" and replace "ALL"
The app creates a magisk flashable zip in "zFont/Magisk" folder
Now open Magisk, select modules and selct the zip file in the zFont/Magisk folder and flash.
Reboot and voila!
Let me know if it all went well. Take care and have a great day!
Thanks for the reply. I'm not rooted as it messes with my banking app. So not sure if this will work for me.
