Changing system font in Cyanogenmod? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777

When I used Cognition X2, there was a way under "Display" in settings to change the system font. I don't see that in Cyanogenmod. Do I have to use an app for this or is there something hidden deep in settings I can use?
Thanks in advance.

I'm wonder the exact same thing. It seems there is no font setting in cyanogenmod anywhere. Some are recommending an app called font changer which you can download from the market. Yet this app don't come with font so you have to download the fonts as well. I haven't tried this so far.

You can flash fonts in cwm if they are the proper zip file

[Q] Flashable Icon Replacements?

I have been looking around at various icon packs but have only been able to use them to change icons on my home screen, in the app drawer they remain unchanged. Are there any icon packs I can flash over to replace everything, if possible, or a way to change icons on the home screen and app drawer using only my phone (p509)? I have searched but have yet to find anything helpfull. Thanks.
Try my openOptimus ROM sir,it has an integrated on-the-fly engine to change sys icons even in app drawer

I just took a look at your ROM, seems like the perfect one for me. I don't exactly know how I missed it. Though if I read correctly I am unable to flash using AmonRa 2.2.1?
Yes you can flash with amonRa 2.2.1

Awesome ROM! Just flashed it and so far so good. Took me a little while since everything I do (Root,Recovery,Backup,ROMS,Ect) has to be done without the help of a computer. I just hate getting 98% done with a download and I have to start over because it fails.

How do do change the font on P500?

Hi I'm wondering how you change the font on the entire phone.Any possible help.

Thanks for your quick response. Question arose in my mind is, how do i know my font is changed and also, how do i change my system font (like System date, default system fonts when we open settings and find options like wireless and networks, call settings, display and so on...and other things which is reflecting in old font format) using this new font installer....I have already rooted my phone thru superoneclick software.
Can you please tell how to reflash my ROM. I have not installed any Custom ROMs in my handset.
Thanks
Devaraj
To flash a new rom,
1. Download the rom file in.kdz format.
2. Download the kdz software by which you can flash your rom.
AS you are new to flagging rom, this is the easiest way you can go.
If you think the information is helpful to you, don't forget to click thanks.

The font changing is system wide. To really be aware of that, install for testing purposes a more unique font with odd characters and look for yourself that it has changed absolutely everywhere (contacts, phone, settings, messaging, browsers). After that you can install whatever font you want and know that it has already changed everywhere.

You are wrong at this point.
Kdz is only used for changing the default roms(or official roms).
If you want custom roms (modified rom based on official roms) then you must have recovery to flash them.

Or you install recovery or oficial by the means you want or you just try more fonts because you use stock rom and not all fonts look good on stock but im sure there will be more than one that fits and that you will..
Now you advise a new user to fash a kdz just for have font back lol you are crazy
Sent from my LG-P500 using xda app-developers app
Just root phone instal rom manager from market install a recovery for p500 from rom manager app then i get you a zip of a oficial stock rom to flash by recovery or you flash one from forum but if you want flash the .kdz be my guest but then dont cry if you brick your phone.
Someone please tell him wich recovery is stable because i don use clockwork just instal a 5.x.x.x not a 6.x.x.x that is unstable.

Changing fonts on RR3.1.2 using 'Rom Tool Box' will not wrk for now ma8
Since changing font in JB is not the same as ICS anymore
I wouldn't use it at all. I tried it back when I was running GB (Miui) in 2011, had the same issue. Everytime I changed a font the phone bootlooped. And the dev wasn't particularly helpful either.

If you backed up your font then you can restore it if not try finding stock font somewhere and installing
If you still cant find it then reflash the stock rom with flashtool, exclude data btw
Perhaps you can flash a stock based rom instead
Do you know the name of default fonts that comes with xperia z2

Not realy, sony doesnt have a built in font manager and the only other ways is via root+file manager or flashing a font flashable zip via recovery
As far as i know samsung is the only phone maker who allows you to change fonts via the settings app(thus allowing you to change fonts without using extra apps)
