MIUI change system fonts? - Huawei Ideos X5 U8800

Any tool , reference how to change system fonts on MIUI?
Brgds,
S.

I had problems changing the fonts trough the theme manager, the new fonts didn't get applied.
I downloaded Font Changer from the Market and replaced the default Arial and Droid sans fonts with new fonts. Rebooted and that did the trick.
I don't know the reason but I think it may have been caused because the system used the droid sans fonts and theme manager only changed the default Arial fonts to the new ones. Anybody else had issues with changing fonts?

I also tried with font changer but cannot find any extra fonts ...
Where did you obtain new fonts ... i cannot find any

There's many places on the net you can find typefaces for font changer. They need to be .ttf format files. The font changer has information and help inside the app itself, look there...

Oh man.. Just use google, whatever works. Don't want to supply any direct links if there's any copyright issues and some. The MIUI.us forum has a whole thread on fonts and probably other MIUI forums too.

go to settings-personal-themes-edit theme-font-online font
and just download some new fonts there via MIUIs own online font selection

I tried this but seems that default fonts remains after applying new chosen fonts! Any ideas? I also tried to reboot after applying theme font but nothing happens.

I have a same problem with MIUIs font changer. The font seems to be stuck on default. And reboot, hot or cold, doesn't help.

Try the font changer application from market and replace the default arial AND droid sans fonts with the instructions provided in the application.. You can pull the font files from .mtz files by opening them on the computer with any package archiver.

I tried font changer but cannot put back default fonts after using it

I noticed too that resetting defaults didn't work. Here's a solution that worked for me.
Look with the file explorer in the sd card folder called 'fontchanger' and copy the backed up default fonts into the custom fonts selection and change with the application itself.

Have anyone figured a way to change the front WITHOUT additional apps, just using MIUIs built-it font changer? Since, well, we do have it already integrated to the ROM so no additional apps SHOULD be needed..

Goto to fonts in theme manager part of miui, then you have to import the new font with menu button, but make sure the font is for android devices, then navigate to location of new font. Or you can use file manager and open the font and you should be able to apply it like that.
Thanx man

I am having the same issue. I can't find any fonts that will work with my Samsung Note 3.
I had the same problem. The way I got around it was to install iFont, then extract the TTFs from the APKs of the fonts I want, put them into /sdcard/ifont/custom/, install the one you want to use in the custom tab of iFont, then finally go to Fonts in Settings and your chosen font should be there with "(iFont)" affixed to the end.
When you change your font in iFont again be sure to change to the default font then back to the custom one in order to apply it.
EDIT: Forgot to mention I had to buy the donation version of iFont because I don't have root.
All of the flipfonts I downloaded says they're not compatible.

Ifont, you want ifont from the play store. No root needed on the n9005
iFont on the Play Store is now compatible with the Note 3, I have used it successfully many times now.

kellyslab (http://www.google.com/fonts/specimen/Kelly+Slab) font amazes me... I will stick to it for sometime...
Cheers!
Yup, worked like a charm, tried setting a font, note3 rebooted and stuck in bootloop. awesome
for the root users - rom toolbox or font installer are able to install about any TTF font.
Thanks to all for suggesting iFont! This was annoying me, but now my N3 looks the way I want it to.
does anyone know the default font name for note 3? i changed it & now somehow not able to restore the detault font...

You can change the font style and font size on your device. To change the font settings, from the Home screen, touch Menu > Settings > Device > Font . Touch Font Style and choose Default font, Choco cooky, Cool jazz, Rosemary, or Samsung Sans. Touch Get fonts online to download new fonts from Samsung Apps.
Touch Font size and choose from Tiny up to Huge. When you select Huge, the font may be shown only in certain applications. In applications that cannot support Huge font size, Large font size will be used instead.
I installed iFont and tried to use Ubuntu font, and it says its not supported.

Download the fonts in the "download font" option that takes you to the Google Play Store.

@russcausier iFont is the best I've used.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kapp.ifont
I installed the following and was able to change the fonts with ease.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.monotype.android.font.flipfont.develop.clean
Once installed go to settings/display/fonts/font style. I'm currently running Clean_Pennition. Gloria M Stone has released a lot of great font packs so you should be able to find something you like.
Thanks guys the ifont used to work on older galaxy but now says root, I'll try other one but have found one that works with galaxy called hifont in play store

I was able to use that same font pack with no trouble on my S5.
I would however like to use my own truetype font files. Found several ways to package them into an apk, which puts them in the font list with preview, but when I select one it says it's not supported. Same issue using the XDA POWER FONTS package (I didn't try all 650 of them though).
iFont worked with the font I tested (downloaded using the app) if you don't have root, it downloads an apk and installs it so you can choose it from the font style menu, but the functions to use your own font are only available in the pay version. I might have to try that. The free version lets you download up to 3 per day which is great if the ones you want are there.
EDIT: yes! that worked! Best $1.93 I've spent this week. The iFont donate version worked with my ttf font. I selected it, chose the create apk option, and went and installed the APK and was able to select my font in the menu.

Change DPI Oneplus 2?

I´m root in my Oneplus Two, and downloaded texdroider_dpi and Root DPI Changer.
Neither works!!
I tried too change build.prop, but ro.sf.lcd_density or another density value don´t appears.
Any solution for change DPI in OP2?
Thanks!
Hey,
i use a flashable zip. Download it from here: http://www5.zippyshare.com/v/RvfbVEkr/file.html
to edit the DPI, open the .zip and go to folder tmp and edit the "misc" file with a text editor.
after this you can flash it trough recovery
Greetings

I set 380 DPI, and I have not found errors for now.
350 DPI, the default one in the zip, I´m encounter all the system elements too small.

I´m newbie and I can´t post pictures yet, sorry.
But I seen a few mistakes in some apps, but I don´t know if problem of Oxygen OS or DPI.
Some apps like Solid Explorer or PocketCast get default Dark Theme.
That is, even if they are placed in Light theme in settings app , stay in dark theme and I can´t change this no way. This is case of Pocket Cast.
In Solid Explorer case, it stay in light theme, but text are in white and can´t read nothing. I must put the app in dark theme to use it .
It is all very strange .

I see no prob with 380 all apps work as before and no fcs till now
I don't have any intentions to advertise, but recently I published a DPI Changer app to Play Store which by default sets DPI using local.prop method(works fine on COS12 and OxygenOS on OnePlus One) and also has an option to set it via build.prop method. I positively believe it would work for OnePlus Two too, if not I would love some feedback.

Easiest way is adding the line ro.sf.lcd_density=380 in the build.prop

The way I did it was going in and adding the ro.sf.lcd_density=380 to the build.prop myself as for some reason it wasn't there. Then I connected the OPT to the computer and used the ADB Command Prompt (adb shell wm density 380) to change the DPI as well.
I had to do this because if I used an app to change the DPI the keyboards would screw up and be incredibly large and unusable.
Can someone please post some screenshots? Thank you in advance

Le DPI working fine in Oneplus 2 (oxygen 2.0.1) using BUILD. PROP.
thanks
my experience with the app " The DPI "
First I tried with the second function of the app (BUILD. PROP) and restarting the phone had a bootloop.
Fortunately I had a Nbackup
According to the first attempt I tried the first method off the app , rebooted and nothing changed then I tried again the BUILD. PROP and it worked!
perhaps the first method have created something away for work the second method
