Fonts? - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Help, I downloaded some fonts and when I select one they don't display even after restarting my phone. I don't have any custom ROM or anything...Why won't they work?

Are you rooted? I am not sure if you have to be rooted for it to work. I wouldn't assume you have to be rooted though.
You went into the settings after installing them and selected which one you want through the sounds and display/fonts menu?

If you have OCLF installed then you need to use its Install Fonts feature to install fonts - otherwise nothing will change in the system.
I had exactly the same issue and figure it out literally few hours ago

Problem with changing fonts.

When I apply a font, reboot, it doesn't change. I tried using I've from the market and one that was in the system. No go.
Any tips or advice?

It seems that some of the Lag-Fixes are causing this. Which Lag-Fix did you install?
I am using RyanZA's lag fix.

Go in and look at OCLF app at the very bottom you have a option saying INSTALL FONT. Check it out.
Install Fonts thru Lag Fix Not working?
I have tried several times and I am unable to install custom fonts. Please help. The install fonts in Ryan's lag fix is not working.
I had the same problem with ryanza's oclf from the market. Only thing I could do to fix it was to uninstall that version and install a different lag fix

It happens sometimes to me too, I'm on Froyo MIUI. What I do is hit Cancel and repeat the procedure or force close the Market and try again. Usually after 1-3 tries it works.

Are you using DroidWall, HiSurfing or other IPTables' shell? If so, maybe you're being too much restrictive.
In this case, try to power off the Firewall and use the Market. If the Market now works well, you can unblock one app a time until you find the guilty one (make sure you're unblocked Market and Media server!).
You can also check if your Market Settings aren't filtering the contents you want.

installed Viper rom - can't find clock/alarm app

I just installed the Viper rom on friday however, now i can't find the app/settings so that i can set my alarms on my phone. i was thinking maybe i deleted it on accident via titanium backup, however when looking back at the ROM zip i cannot find the APK in the package (unless i've overlooked it).
is there a way i can download the original DNA clock or even a stock 4.1 clock that would work on the phone? it would be great to be able to set and edit my alarms again so i get up for work on time
Its on there. Did you accidentlu select to uninstall it in aroma?

When you installed the Rom, it was the menu of options you went through in recovery.

Ahh didn't know that's what it was called. and i'm not sure if that is what i did or not i might have accidentally deleted using titanium backup.
however, i've resolved the issue by reinstalling the Viper and making sure that the clock was not marked to be removed by aroma and now it's all working well again. thanks for the help though. i'm glad someone replied. i'm finding the IRC is quiet useful

[Q] No effects when clicking on a desktop icon

Hi after I have installed several apps , played with the input and phone languages, installed a new keyboard, and ultimatelly received this "unfortunately the process com.google.process.gapps has stopped" error the effects when I click on an icon on the screen are gone, the wavy effect is just not there and I have searched the whole phone for solution.
R: [Q] No effects when clicking on a desktop icon
The several apps right there might be a problem...or the rom is buggy (many are).
So tell us what rom it is, what android v, what apps youve installed that required root access.and if youve modded.any futher the rom or enabled mods already within the rom.

The rom is the standard one that I reckon comes with the phone.
I haven't had modified anything apart from installing apps and updates.
The phone is not rooted in any way. Nor have I modded or inserted into the rom.
I have updated to jelly beans. And the latest applications I have installed are koffice, swift key, poker stars, and I am quite sure I have been changing settings but nothing visual.

Some of them are, but some I have downloaded in a different way if you know what I mean. Hopefully I haven't caught a virus or something like that. Now, a factory reset will erase all my data right? And what else?

A factory reset is better than resetting a factory i guess....
Factory reset really seems best.
Just make a backup of your apps (use titanium backup) and then restore them
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
that's interesting, because as far as I know, the ripple effect on the desktop (not the lockscreen) is not included in the stock ROM. are you sure you're not talking about the lock screen? you can enable the ripple effect by going to Settings - lock screen
Yeh I am sure. I'm sure that it was there for some time after I have updated the os. Then again I have installed a great deal of software which I think had made my wavy effect disappear?!
And can I do a backup of the apps with no root access I don't think it's a good idea to play an expert and damage the phone beyond repair. Thanks!

Aye, what do I have to do? If you just give me a link to the most current method used, please.
The phone is gt-i9300 international. Thanks!
read the basics
I realise that. But there's a lot of people who suggested all sorts of different ways doing the same thing. All in all if you flash the rom solely don't it enables root privileges in a more effective fashion..? Thanks!

The most effective fashion is the most complete one, not how you do it.
If youre speaking of flashing through odin modified parts of the rom so you can gain root access..then yes thats what i did (just look it up on youtube, make sure you write galaxy s3 international (if international version) and android version of your rom).
If youre speaking of flashing a custom rom which comes with root access already unlocked, you need to have root for that.
Its easy you can find it on google or youtube. Best method for now (or perfectly working one used by the most people) is flashing some stuff through a programm for pc (or mac i think, but im not sure) called odin. Then i advise (once you have root) you boot into the phone and install from the play store rom manager. Thru this app you may install a new recovery (basically safe-partition of disc, think of it as a bios or firmware for a pc. What u need it for is to save ur ass if u f***k up your phone, or to make COMPLETE backup images of your device so that you may restore them later on. It can also be used to flash other recoveries and therefore replace itself, or flash other roms or kernels. Its a MUST HAVE for anybody with root)

use any method, it does not matter at all.
but rooting will not get your ripple effect back. If you said that you had it before you installed something, then factory reset

***Updated*** Ink Effect 18 Colors for AT&T AMDL Deodexed

I started to work on the ink effect for the S4...
Requirements: you must be on the latest version which is "AMDL" and deodexed and have the latest recovery installed..
I have tested this on two different devices both running P-ROM.. One unit normal kernal and the other running ktoonsez kernel.
Now with 18 color choices and I fixed the menu layout as well...
It's compatible with Nottach's Xposed as well.. If you are running any other customs rom this could break some features that are in that rom...
Installing this will also give you the long press menu to kill function and 4way reboot...
I will be improving on some of the colors in the next update ex: making pink a little darker and pinker...
I will also be looking at the ink flow to see if I can increase it...
Install using your favorite recovery and as always make sure you backup your system before installing...
Have fun!!!!
On initial boot if your lock screen is black just swipe it to unlock and you are good to go.
Ink 18 Colors For S4
Not responsible for bricked units.. Follow the directions and you will be good to go.

No. I forgot to. I removed it though. All I did was take the files that were in your mod from the rom I was using and replaced them with the stock ones. BTW your mod is working great except for the color flash thing. Keep up the good work.

Just flashed this on my AT&T S4. After flashing I cleared Dalvik cache and cache. Rebooted and immediately had an error message saying "Unofrtunately the process TouchWiz Home has stopped working). I then proceeded to turn on the ink effect but every time I selected something in settings, I would get the same error message about TouchWiz Home not working. Good thing I made a backup before installing!
Really hoping the bugs get worked out as I miss this mod from my GS3. Adding the water drip sounds for lock and unlock would go nicely with this
BTW, I'm on Nottach's P-ROM with stock kernel.
