Sony Font selector apk for X 8.0 OS - Sony Xperia X Questions & Answers

Guys, I installed Font selector apk from apkmirror. Can't we install Product Sans font without root? I mean we have the option to choose font after installing that apk in display settings. Can't we install other fonts without root?

no you cannot, the fonts file protected in system and you need to flash fonts via twrp (mods)

and even with root, you need superuser mod in kernel or fully pathed superusermod

[Q]How to install/flash custom fonts to ACE

As the title implies, how do i flash/install custom fonts into ACE??
just type in market 'fonts' and you'll see e.g. fontomizer app - basically you can install font as app (.apk). no need for root etc.
Just download any font from the already created onces, check this thread for fonts
Install the fonts and then go to settings---> display---> fonts and select the font u have installed and restart the phone.
your font will be there wen u restart.
I have tried many and most of them work pretty fine on ace.
The 'Font Changer (root)' app also works wonders. Store all your TTF fonts in a folder, and the app can set any of the font as a system font. Very useful.

Font Help - Installing Font Causes Bootloop

Yo!
This problem is from a phone using Android 4.1.2 JB--TouchWiz.
So I'm trying to install a new font to my phone--Roboto Condensed-Light to be exact.
I took another Flashable Font I had and renamed and replaced all the necessary fonts in the .zip file.
When I tried to flash the font, the phone went into bootloop.
Is there a certain way fonts must be in order for them to work/install correctly?
Or should I just put the fonts on the SD card and push them to the font folder one-by-one?
Thanks!

The easiest way to install font's to your device is to use a font install app such as Font Installer by JRummy. What you can do is put the font on your sdcard and then using the font installer app select the font you wish to install from your sdcard and the app will install the font for you. As always be sure to make a NANDROID backup in recovery before installing any font's or performing any MOD's just to be on the safe side.

[Q] Fallback fonts not working on Android Oreo??

So I have a Redmi Note 4 with Cardinal-AOSP ROM based on Android 8.0 installed. Now I am trying to change font using TypeFace app on Play Store using root method. It is able to change font successfully but I get a weird ? on lockscreen in place of : (using slade 27px font, but happens with almost all non-roboto fonts). So I reverted back to Roboto font using flashable zip and the : was back. So I modified the zip containing original font files and just created a copy of each ttf file and renamed it to <filename>Fallback.ttf. In other words, I added Fallback font files to /system/fonts for each Roboto font. After flashing the zip, I tried applying another font using typeface but faced the same issue of ? character. Does anyone have any idea why I am facing this issue even when I have added Fallback font files?? Note that I already tried flashing the unsupported font file form here which I got from this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/themes/fonts-flashable-zips-t3219827 but it didn't solve anything.. I have also attached the modified zip file which I created by adding Fallback fonts..

[NO ROOT] Install Google Sans or any other fonts form ttf

The ROG phone 2 supports flipfont, and with zFont you can generate custom fonts from ttf files.
Start by picking your file.
Locate to "Local" and click on the file icon.
Here's the tricky part, select "Samsung"
Only "Kikat and below" and "Lolipop" option will work, as others will not generate flipfont
Install the apk and profit
Imgur with all the steps
This should also work with any other devices that uses flipfont
I've linked my google sans font below for reference.
Hit Thanks if this helped
OMG Thanks dude im searching from past week on how to change the font to google sans thank you very much.

the attached APK google sans worked..
otherwise flipfont didn't work.
z font will allow install and is able to change in the setting ( system font setting) but no difference what so ever. I guess the fonts have to be converted or something and then one can install flawlessly. Which brings me to my question .. how to make the fonts user ready?

-ROG II 512 version with WW rom...
-Flip font got stuck in the loading screen.
-I downloaded some fonts with the zfonts app and got some fonts installed.
-Font manager I guess would be the one in the Phone settings?
-The downloaded fonts from the zfont show in the phone font setting but there are barely any changes.
I did download the attached Google sans serif APK which directly installed in the phone font setting.
When applied it worked Great.

I hv ROG 2 128 GB variant with WW Rom
Zfonts worked for me. I will tell u how
1. After downloading the desired font or installing custom ttf font file which u hv downloaded from the elsewhere (from zfont app), select the samsung option while setting.
2. After selecting Samsung option, select "kitkat and below" or lollipop - 5.0 & 5.1.1 (i hv selected kitkat and below)
3. Install the apk after seleting any of the either option and bang?????
Check out ur font manager under display tab. There u will find the font which u hv selected the zfont app.
Also the google sans apk that is provided in this thread works as good as zfont.
Moreover i hv installed XDA POWER FONTS. That gave me soo many fonts to change it every day. lol..
((LUV U ASUS FOR PROVIDING SUCH DECENT FONT MANAGER))
All of these r working as fine as hell.
TY??

ONE UI CUSTOM FONTS
Samsung One UI using zFont 3
GUIDE AND TROUBLESHOOTER
Google Fonts
LAST EDIT ON MAY 14, 2023​
1) Download and install the official Samsung Sans system font from the Galaxy Store. This is the non-modified version for creating the initial backup. Once installed, manually change your system font to Samsung Sans from Display > Font Settings.
2) In Samsung Cloud, create a backup of only the settings while your font is set to Samsung Sans. The first two steps only need to be done once for all subsequent custom fonts.
3) Uninstall or update over the old Samsung Sans font with the new custom zFont Samsung Sans font file which contains the font you want to change to. This uses the same package name (com.monotype.android.font.samsungsans) as the official font to trick cloud into thinking it's legit. GOOGLE FONTS has a huge open source selection of fonts that can be downloaded in TTF format.
NOTE: There's also an option to use other fonts in zFont instead of Samsung Sans, but if you choose those, you'll have to create a new backup with the official version of that font selected.
4) Change your system font to "Default".
NOTE: Your custom font should be present within your font list after installation. When updating custom fonts, it might appear as if the correct font is already selected but your new font won't actually become active until you refresh it by unselecting and reselecting the font which requires the Samsung Cloud workaround since you can't select a modified font manually from the font menu or you'll get an error.
5) In Samsung Cloud, select the option to restore. Uncheck all options except "Settings" to restore only the settings that you backed up in step #2. While it's restoring, you'll see the text on the screen update to your target custom font prior to reaching 100% complete if it's successful. Once the restoration is finished, you'll get a dialog popup asking if you want to delete old backups, select the NO response so the backup can be used for future fonts.
6) Verify your font changed from "Default" to Samsung Sans or whatever custom font option you selected. Font settings are usually located in the device's Display settings. Once verified, restart your device.
NOTE: Not all text will be replaced with your updated font until after a system reboot. Verify your font was automatically changed to the new font from Default prior to rebooting. If it failed to update, continue to the troubleshooting steps below to verify system applications.
Subsequent Updates: To update your font while a backup of the device settings is already created (with the correct font file selected per step #2), just update custom font file, change font to default, restore settings, restart device (or just start at step #3). No need to create a new backup unless the original backup is lost.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Samsung Cloud custom font workaround will not work if you debloated your system applications. Samsung Cloud relies on several pre-installed applications to restore all settings back to its former backed up state, especially font since it seems like getting the font to restore is the toughest setting to fix if debloated. I'm not sure 100% exactly which applications affect this, but I've confirmed that it's only Samsung Apps.​MUST BE INSTALLED AND ENABLED

CONCLUSION​Not sure which ones exactly it needs but you don't need to rebloat every single application. I do know it's several of the preloaded Samsung packages. All the applications listed are related to Samsung Cloud one way or another. They must be INSTALLED and ENABLED! If I end up narrowing the list down further, I'll update this list of required applications.​
