Change font size Touchwiz? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello there. Is it possible to change the font size on my phone? like within touchwiz or everything else?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App

I don't have a definitive answer but what I did was download one of the font packs which do have fonts in various sizes, relative to the default font.

there is an app called spare parts from the market, installed it but didn't try the font size option in it yet.

mvpeterson, u got a name for that font pack?
sevoflurane, I tried changing the font size in the app Spare parts, it sets the font size to what I want but when ca 10 minutes has elapsed the font size reverts back to its normal size. Trolling or what?

Bump. Also, please take a look at previous posts before posting.

font changer / spare parts

I'm not sure how to address this, but I downloaded font changer and it works well, but it doesn't change the font of anything that displays on the home screens or the app drawer, and I also can't change their sizes in spare parts, only menu fonts. any suggestions?

[Q]Flip Font Universal Font Change

Hi All,
I have two questions..
1)This is related to font changing in Samsung ROMS.. In Samsung ROMS, you can install a Flip Font as an Apk file and You can choose it in Settings -> Display -> Set Font/Font Style
My Question is even though it themes most of the fonts.. Somewhere here and there I still have the original font popping up.. But the weird thing is it keeps toggling from one font to the other(ex: Default and selected)
Is there any way that i can create a Flip Font that override all the fonts to have the same font globally..
2)This is related to JB Roms(AOKP to be precise).
I noticed that there are different Roboto Fonts in JB viz. Roboto Light, Roboto Condensed. So in order to change the fonts(again globally) Is it enough if i replace the Roboto normal package,DroidSans and clockopia?? or should I be replacing the Roboto Light, Roboto Condensed as well..
Does anyone know where the Light and condensed fonts be used??
Any help would be appreciated..
Thanks in Advance

If you have ROOT access, Use ROOT capable font changer to change your font, it has more permissions.

Yeah.. I have used font changers.. But they can do only so much.. They cannot replace Roboto Bold fonts because of metadata.. So in the end some places keep poking out in same old Roboto.. I need to change it completely.. Such that nowhere Roboto is there.. (No disrespect to Roboto, i do like it , but i feel there are much better fonts )

I did replace the Roboto Fonts and also Droid Sans as well(Cause it is used in some places).. But ended up in a boot loop
So I'm just wondering if Roboto Light and condensed are actually causing it..

have you tried restarting the phone after applying the changes? It may sound stupid but, it might work in some cases.
If not, then first try restarting the launcher*i dont think you can do that, but try it* If that doesn't work, then restart it.
If even that doesn't work, just adore whatever you have.
Anyone know where I can get Roboto Font? I'm looking on the Play Store and I can't seem to find any.

[Q] Sense launcher displaying correct system font size?

I had a quick question about the sense launcher. I was wondering why the launcher won't follow the system font size rules I set. For instance, if I set the system font size to small, it doesn't change the sense launcher. I don't know if there is any way around it without rooting, but if there is I would appreciate the tip. Thanks.

[REQ] Messaging app font mod

Hi,
I am using Robotoslab fonts on my Note2 which are at the 90% size of the original.
They look great all over the phone except the messaging app.
I have already decreased the font size to the smallest possible size using volume rocker.
But still they are too big.
Can anyone mod the stock messaging app to reduce the font size?
Thanks,
Chintan

Is there a way to enlarge the font size in the AOD? I like an easier to see clock at 0dark30. Or maybe an app? Thanks!

Install the Good Lock App from the Galaxy Store and a module called "Clockface" to get a more extensive selection of clock faces and fonts for AOD and Lock Screen.

Tried that but it doesn't let me enlarge the text. Only change colors. At least on the ones I like. Am I missing something.

There are different clock faces with different fonts and font sizes. I'm afraid you can't change the size of the font of a specific clock face. They "might" release other clock faces with a font size you want or you can create a custom clock with the "existing" font templates. You can also try to contact the developer and suggest that they add the font size functionality you want.
