FlipFont/Other Fonts??

[cobaltgirl87]

I just now realized that the fonts can be changed in my GS3. I was wondering if anyone can tell me how to get other fonts (preferably for free...not the ones on the market) and how to install them. I googled and tried one this morning, but I couldnt get the file to open, so all in all, it did not work.

Thanks in advance!

Here is a huge .zip file of flip fonts.

thats the one i tried to download, but then i didnt know how to get it to work....

1. unzip them on your pc
2. sideload individual fonts (.apks)
3. browse to those .apks with a file explorer of your choice (astro, es file explorer, etc)
4 Install by clicking on the file.
5. Then select the newly installed fonts in the font section of display settings.

Unfortunatley you have to install them one by one...

Sounds good, I will try that. Is there a specific file I need to put them in?

and does my phone need to be rooted to do this?

(sorry for the questions. new to this)

 

[junglejunkie]

No you do not need to be rooted to do any of this.

Just put them on the root of your sd card, then use a file explorer to browse to that location and long press on the "fontname.apk" then chose "install".

Or download fontomizer from the Play Store. Not a ton of fonts, but it has a decent selection.

Awesome, I ended up figuring out how to do it all on my phone without the need of a comp. Thanks again for the help!

Wow this is a LOT of fonts. Is there a way of knnowing what they look like without having to install all 287?

EDIT: RTFM...or check the link on XDA.

The Guy that rooted the phone for me said Font Manager crashes Tecno phones. But I rooted my phone So that I can enjoy fonts. Please help.
