Collection of fonts for your S3

**tat21985** · 01-11-2013, 05:41 PM

This thread is awesome! I am so glad I was able to find these, I really didn't wanna have to root in order to change the font..

You don't have to, lol, it's in the settings.

Much love to the OP for posting all these fonts, you rock!! d^^b

By the way Ricky, I don't suppose you'd be taking requests would you? Just out of curiosity.

Um, no. What he's asking is how to share them with an app that asks where to find your font files (in this case, Minimalistic Text Widget, the same app I'm back to ask questions about). This app, before Android allowed easy customization of fonts, allowed you to set a fonts folder it would scan, offering you the chance to customize the widget(s) with any font(s) you liked. The setting has not been changed in the app, so being able to tell it which folder contains the font files would let us use these fonts for that app, and others with similar settings.

What these "font apk's" do is change the system font on your android and allow your whole system to utilize. I am not familiar with the Minimalistic app, but if you install one of these then it becomes your "default" font for the system. In which case I believe "Minimalistic Text" would also use this font as it is the "default" font (the Minimalistic app should be able to ask you which font to use, in this case choose "default". Again, I am not familiar with that app. Furthermore, if you need to locate the directory structure and extract the fonts to place in a certain folder then that would be (I will use "Opificio" as an example): System root>Data>Data>com.monotype.android.font.Opificio>app fonts>Opificio>TTF

This of course assumes that you can gain access to the "system root" directory, and are comfortable, and knowledgeable in locating this directory.

These are apk's just like an app that you would download from the app store. Instructions are in the 1st post. Save it to the root of your SD card and install the fonts you would like. Once you install go to menu>display>font>Select the font you want.

**Kimberly Boals** · 03-24-2013, 01:16 AM

How do u uninstall a font after you install it? I am using Android Assistant to install them.

Edit: nevermind I figured it out.

Amazing work!!! I just bought the Galaxy S3 two days back to replace my aging Arc. Had been torn between the Optimus G and the SGSIII, but eventually settled for the SGSIII (the Optimus G had an amazing CPU/GPU and a great display, but no development done for it on XDA, as opposed to the tons of ROMs etc. available for the Samsung, was a deal breaker for me). I never knew you could change fonts on the SGSIII without rooting your device. It's great to know that you can. Makes me feel that, perhaps, I did, in fact, make the right decision. Thank you for the upload!

**t0a** · 04-01-2013, 06:22 AM

Thank you...been looking for fonts for my GT-N7000 since doing JB 4.1.2 update. Had only default font.

**gomugomull** · 04-06-2013, 04:37 PM

Thank you for this! It's a great way to update the look of my phone without doing much. It makes a world of difference having more than 4 options when it comes to fonts.

Currently using olney.

Alguém me consegue arranjar esta font "Y2k Neophyte" para android?

**Smeeble** · 04-28-2013, 07:20 AM

Brilliant, worked like a charm with no issues on my stock S3, auto opened with ES file explorer as well.
Cheers.

**Rosa Coelho** · 04-29-2013, 11:06 AM

someone I can get this font "Y2K Neophyte" for android?

**Kimberly Boals** · 04-29-2013, 11:54 AM

Is it just me that the hashmark does work when I have these fonts enabled? does anyone know of a fix?

**jb4kats** · 04-29-2013, 10:50 PM

I know this thread is a little old but I have a question to maybe get it rolling again. I don't have the S3 I have the S4. I did see some posts earlier in the thread with the same problem I am having now but what they were told to correct did not work for me or I missed something. I can download and install these fonts (from way back in this thread) and I have gotten more from other sites but they show up in my list but they are not available when I click on them, so if they aren't going to work how do you un-install them? I would much rather prefer that they work but the cluttered list bothers me if they are no use to me if they don't work.

**Kimberly Boals** · 05-02-2013, 09:41 AM

So it looks like the Hashtag doesn't work on certain fonts but works on other ones. One being Opificio is one it doesn't work on. It is just a blank box on all the keyboards.

Does anyone have a solution to this and know why it doesnt work? I already tried to install and re-install the fonts and only have 2 installed right now (Opificio and Scribble)

I am using Swiftkey keyboard and it works fine. What keyboard are you using? It might be a glitch with the keyboard you are using?

I use Swype Beta and I know there are bugs with that keyboard but I tried it with the Samsung keyboard and 1 other one I can't remember which........... either it was just a Swype keyboard but not beta or the Android keyboard. I tried all the ones i have in my phone......They all have the issue.

**Alk3fan** · 05-02-2013, 05:38 PM

I am having the same issue with my S4, I'm guessing it's an issue with compatibility so we'll just have to wait until there are fonts that have been updated.
