Question Mark In A Box After Replacing Font - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone!
I'm with a tiny problem . I just have a couple of days with the Exodus ROM (which is amazing so far) and just replaced the stock Roboto Font that comes with any AOSP ROM for the San Francisco Display Font (yes, the one that comes in iOS).
The problem is that the clock widget on the lock screen, instead of showin the "colon" of the hour, it shows this famous "question mark in a box" symbol.
I replaced the Roboto Regular, Bold , Thin, and Light ones for its SFDF corresponding ones; so I don't know what should be the problem (it seems that it uses the Thin one, but I'm not sure).
I'm gonna attach a screenshot, so you can see what I'm talking about if I didn't explained myself correctly (which is the most possible situation)

Thank you in advance and I apologize for my English.

The Google fonts (like Roboto) have symbols in the "Private" area of the font file (ttf) that are not standardized.
The only way you can fix this is to actually edit the ttf file and copy symbols to the following slots:
EE01 :
EE02 "
F6C3 ,
You can use FontForge to do so, but editing ttf fikes has a little bit of a learning curve.

Thank you very much! It worked!

@JoeBro19 Could you please share the edited San Fransisco font file?

@amaldhure I no longer have an android phone but I decided to extract the SF font from my Mac and edit it again. I hope it works. https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B52QDJW8irNzcUZHTkRDVWR4WUU

@JoeBro19 That's so nice of you, thanks buddy! Unfortunately, the font format (OTF) is not working for me. Could you please share a TTF file of that format? I tried to open your OTF file in multiple apps like macOS's default font viewer and some online font viewers, but it does not open up anywhere. On trying to install the OTF file using FontFix app, the app crashed on selecting the file.

I was able to edit my San Fransisco TTF file using an online tool called GlyphrStudio. I've generated the OTF file after doing the required editing and it worked for me! The same could be found at https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B-FhRZ9W_k26TW5DSUE4c0xHeEE. Hope this helps someone.

@amaldhure Oh, I'm sorry mine didn't work! But at leats you mamaged to get a working one! I'm glad you could and decided to share the working one for those who need it!

Anyway, I guess that's all. Because I no longer have an andriod phone, I believe that's all for me here. ?

@JoeBro19 Thanks buddy!

@amaldhure No problem!

DId you try Manila editor from the diamond thread? You need to rename tmobile.theme to tmobile.zip or .rar and extract all the files in one folder apart. Maybe you can´t view all the files but the manila editor recognize that files. Only you need to copy the graphics that you need.
Yep. I have tried it. And it works except for the t-mobile white background ??
Could anyone please post that background here ?
looking forward to the theme, would be very nice

if u use pic & video viewer on ur phone select a pic to set for ur today screen background and set transpencery level to 100 u will get a white screen
dont forget to change all ur text colors or u won't be able to see them
But that's not my point . The thing is I don't have that white wallpaper as on screen above. The one I have ripped from TMOBILE.THEME is distorted and pixelated. If anyone have it please post it here. The theme looks cool so far:
- I have orignal pink clock - animated in flash
- Original buttons and big buttons when scrolling.
Tomorrow I'll post some screens.
Is this any good to you?
Thank's but if you take a look closer at the screen above you can see that this is not exactly the same wallpaper. Thanks anyway.
so wait.. whos making it everyone or just u?
I am making it. I already have first page pretty much similar to original one. But I would appreciate if anyone could help me with getting original background.

Cab has installed fine but the clock background isn't transparent.
I did only the numbers leaving each one the choice of the background for the clock.
In the evening I'll make a cab with the background transparent like mine.

InsecureSpike Eras Font.cab
i reviewed your cab file and created one using the MS Reference Sans Serif font, but after installing my cab file, the font did not change. if i install your cab file, the fonts will change to the Eras Font. the one difference between your cab file and mine is the inclusion of a file named ERASFONT.000 in your file. by the way, i used FontCreater to change the font names prior to creating the cab. is there something else i need to do to make this work? thanks.

Theme - Purple Swirl

Hi Guys,
This is my first theme for the Diamond. Hope you like it!
I've changed the sprint icons to all Purple.
The wallpaper was found on Google images but have edited it from it's original colours (was white/yellow).
Clock font is Curlz MT from vista.
Does anyone know how i can change the TF3d font? I've searched but could only find Godsonz cab files - i'd like to know how to change them to what i'd like.
I also want to change the colour of the text / email notification bubbles.
Any help with these would be much appreciated!

Hi, to change the notification bubbles is very easy: open the 36eabe92_manila with cfc_gui.exe and export it to a png-file. This png you can change like you did it with the tab icons. Import the png back to the manila with the same prog, copy this manila into your windows folder and uncheck/check tf3d - I think you did so with the other files
Another thing is the font color. Some texts you can handle with the 1c684cd8_manila. Its a mode9-file, you need a mode9-editor. By searching in the file you can change the color of operator name, date and applications (but there only the grey text, not the white). A great tutorial you can find here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2749452#post2749452
Hope it helped - good luck

i cant install this theme 2 my diamond can anyone help
Hi there,
To Install this theme you need to copy the manilla files to your Windows folder of your Diamond. Sometimes they dont show up in Normal Windows Explorer so Total Commander is usually required to do this
I don't actualy know how to make a cab file to make this an easy install unfortunately
If anyone could make a cab from the files would be grateful or point me in the right direction?
Hope this helps mate, i'm sorry i couldn't make it any easier
Cheers

din't know how to install Them
so my we need somone to explaine the procdure the steps by steps to insall them

[MOD] Android ASCII Transparent Notification Pulldown

Hello all,
After finally getting more and more familiar with Android (moving from years of WinMo customization), I have decided to release the transparent notification pulldown mod that I've created. First off, I must give credit to the (unknown) creator of the actual ASCII android dude, which I obtained from the last frame of the Desire BIOS bootscreen. I worked hard to ensure that the ascii remained crisp since I didn't have the original files, and I think it works great (even some transparency shines through the characters!).
I hope you'll enjoy this, and it's also important to note a few things:
There are 2 files provided below, one is the FLASHABLE .zip and one is a .rar of the raw images/PNGs I used
The flashable .zip file must be installed AFTER FIRST BOOT if you've just flashed a new ROM
Super Circle Battery MOD A is included by default, as I prefer it best (thanks to Fightspit for that one!)
In the .rar package, you will find the replaceable images so that you can use this transparent appdrawer mod with any other 'framework-res.apk' files that you would prefer to use instead.
PLEASE perform a NANDROiD backup before installing this MOD! You have been warned!

Hi I don´t think you know what a AppDrawer is .
The AppDrawer is the Screen coming up if you hit you left button in sense. The one which contains all Apps (APP-Drawer). That´s why the call it like this.
Now you changed it Just wanted to help. Btw: Nice Work !
Really nice mod, but isnt of appdrawer ...
Hey guys, thanks for the clarification. I don't apply many mods myself (other than this one) so I'm not hip to the lingo
I corrected the title of the post so as not to cause more confusion.
My mistake!
hello
can you do this mod on the app drawer ?

Hey chk13, that's a great idea, and I definitely would, however I am not sure which images from 'com.htc.resources.apk' are responsible for drawing the background of the AppDrawer.
I am a little busy now with normal work, but if you find the answer to that and let me know the image filename, I will surely update this to include the AppDrawer replacement.
Cheers!
sorry for my english im french
is not an image you should make modification by xml see this tread
[THEME MOD]EspressoMod with Transparent AppDrawer by Mestr
thank for your repleas
ps i see in htc resource.apk maybe its common_panel_gradient.png
cheers
I understand you perfectly chk13 I also understand that its an .xml edit to set the transparency, so I probably won't be able to add the Android ASCII character in there like my notification pulldown.
I'll have a look and will eventually try to update my theme to support a transparent AppDrawer.
BTW, I will be posting it to http://leedroid.protogenlabs.com under the "Customize" section, so keep an eye on it!
Cheers and thanks!
thanks you man !
