Who has changed their system font???

[Android26]

Hey guys,

Has anyone changed the font on their Captivate? Can you? If so, which font (and pack) do you like? Are you rooted (do you have to be)? Market or non-market?

I was getting tired of the stock font on the Captivate and was thinking about changing it. Wanted to know how you guys felt about it because I couldn't find a Captivate specific thread on this forum regarding font.

Thanks in advance!

i never added one of my own fonts, so i really wouldnt know how to but id think its possible. i did buy one from the market awhile back and used it for awhile, and now im on a ROM that has several fonts included with it. the one im using now is called BauhausLTMedium, i wasnt a big fan of the stock font either

There's a rooted way to do it, and a non-rooted way to do it...

The non-rooted way, you need to either download or buy "flipfonts" which can then be applied through Settings -> Display -> Font Style

If you're rooted, you can download an app like FontChanger or TypeFresh, and they can backup your existing system fonts and replace them with any .ttf font.

Not sure if I've currently got a "custom" font on mine or not - think I've probably got the default CM font, since I'm flashing ROMs dang near nightly.

Ohhh, okay! Thanks! And haha, I feel like if I was rooted I'd be switchin nightly too

I have and go changing my font almost weekly (much like my wallpaper) It's one thing I really like about our phones. Having flipfont built in lets us change it with ease.
Look here for lots and more are getting added still.
