Hello is there a way to make fonts a little bigger I dont see gmail. Other roms have use bigger font option but this no.
thanks for help
Yeah, I'm wondering too?
you can install font installer from the market if your rooted, not 100% about making bigger though I'll need to double check
Already tried font installer but doesnt work even with rooted rom.
Try to install devtools then set bigger font.

I dont know how to use devtools but I've tried font chanfer and dpi changer programs with no luck. I'm on .67 Rom with root permissions.
Thanks
Try Big font app from Market.
Solved with big fonts from market, thaks you all for help, now my Xps is quite perfect!!!!
I installed BigFonts but only fonts in apps make bigger. I want to make look bigger the fonts of app names in menu.

I am facing same issue after replacing a new font in my xperia s and i finally managed to use fontforge to enlarge the fonts in the ttf file.
It sounds clumsy but i find this is the best way to resolve. Hope this gives you another view.

Use Root Explorer, go to /system/build.prop - open the file build.prop in text editor and you can edit the pixel density of the screen

The reason is because your rooted /system partition has less than adequate space for the new fonts to copy over. Some preroot images do not resize the partition properly, hence font programs will not be able to copy the fonts to the system properly (even manually). Some even report failure in installing / updating busybox.

Why cant the simpler way of pushing the font using adb work ???
You don't need ADB. Just copy the zip on the sd and flash it !
Try custom font changer
From the market.

Fontchanger Doesnt work.....Flashing the zip works for now ...
OK I used to use either font changer or type fresh or absolute system but none of these work no more . I have tried replacing the Droid sans and Droid sans bold with some fonts I have( renamed them to Droid and droidsans bold)with root explorer . But can't seem to get it to change after reboot. Can someone help me out please.
Should note that I'm not on checkrom n speedmod etc like it says in my sig. I'm now on f1 galaxynexus rom. If that makes any difference.

try font installer or rom toolbox from play store and select what fonts u want to replace in preferences/select fonts.
Fontomizer SP from market
All of them only overwrite the regular font and not the bold

Font installer i'm sure does all of them... if not then I'm sure Font Changer does...
I get bootloops when trying to override bold. On every font changer there is available

I prefer Font Changer to use When you change font, go in recovery make permissions and reboot.
Dont forget make a nandroid back up first .
I couldn't change file permissions. There is no any file browser in the recovery or even command prompt
I got 2 bootloops during change of font to bold. It is shame Android is so useless in customizing
I'm sure this has been discussed, but I cannot seem to find the thread...
My phone is rooted...I'm copying fonts into the system/font folder, but the new fonts are not showing up in the list. I am checking the folder to Mount R/W, so it lets me copy them.
Also, is ther a way for me to get Go Launcher to default to the system font? Anytime I change the system font, I also have to change it in Go Launcher for everything to match.
use app like font changer, font installer, it should works.

to change fonts using the Lg font selector, this should be the same for all L9 variants
-requires root and a file explorer
-go download some .ttf font files you like but make sure the font has capital, lowercase, and all other characters
(theres plenty of free fonts just search it)
-navigate to /system/fonts/ and backup the fonts your replacing by naming them [font_name].ttf.bak
or just cut/paste them into another folder
-replace HYSerif_Regular.ttf and HYSerif_Bold.ttf or HYTravel.ttf and HYTravel_Bold.ttf to replace the fonts in the Lg font selector
-replace Clockopia.ttf to replace the clock in the status bar and LGE_Dialfont.ttf to change the Phone app's font. these two will take effect no matter what font you have selected
-set permission for new fonts to -rw-r--r-- and reboot.
-go to settings, click display, and click font type to select your new font
I'm still trying to find which font controls the Lg lockscreen clock's font so if anyone finds that one let me know
or if anyone know how to revert to stock android lockscreen, the Lg one is starting to bug me

thnks buddy
I have a Galaxy S III [International Version] and I'm running Paranoid Android [Based on CM 10.1]
I have busybox installed as well as root access.
I want to change the font of the Stock Android 4.2.2 keyboard and the default bold font of all the widgets on the launcher homescreen.
I have no clue which font maps to which so I simply went to Font Installer's preferences menu and selected any font with a "-bold" suffix to be replaced. All I ended up with was a boot loop.
Any idea on what I'm doing wrong?
Or is there something in addition to this that I should be doing before attempting a reboot?
And what font am I actually supposed to change?
I would recommend manually installing the font. Download the one you want and rename it to the font that you want to replace. (Ex: Roboto-Regular.ttf)
Then paste it into system/font and overwrite the existing one. Finally reboot

I thought of doing that too.
But for that I'd need to know which fonts I'm exactly going to have to replace and that's what's kind of put me at a standstill here
