Font Changer (root)

by martino

Requires *FULL ROOT* (aka NAND unlocked or S-OFF) and *BUSYBOX*. If you don't know what either means then there is a chance this won't work for you. A custom recovery is also highly recommended, but not a requirement.

Not all custom firmwares/devices may work, but most do. Email me if it doesn't. Fonts are not included in the application.

Font Changer allows you to switch the default system font on your Android device (will replace the keyboard font too for a fresh typing experience). It creates an automatic backup of the default fonts at the beginning. When removing the application it should be done from inside its settings to restore your default fonts.

Further features include:
* Replace individual fonts using the font picker
* Screen density changer which allows you to virtually increase/decrease the size to make things appear bigger/smaller
* Quick reboot
* Font previews
* Localisation in English, Russian, Polish, Korean, Bulgarian, and Spanish

Fonts are not included for legal reasons. Information on how to add fonts and how to use Font Changer is inside the application. For more information check out the website. If you have any problems please send an email, I cannot reply to comments. Thank you.


Permissions explained:
* REBOOT - to reboot the device (achieved through root anyway)
* WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE - moving and deleting fonts
* INTERNET - for showing adverts (check out the ad-free donate version if you would like to further support development)

Recent changes:
Version 3.0.1
* Added Android 3.0/4.0 UI support
* Added Android 4.0 support (I do not own an ICS device so this is experimental -- use at own risk with ICS! You may also need to update su binary from Superuser app)
* MIUI support withdrawn (too much diversion from Android making support a pain -- complaints should be directed at MIUI project)
* Quick boot disabled by default (may cause boot loops on some devices)
* Fix for space check returning negatives
* Other internal improvements
