[APP] FlipFont: Roboto 4.3

[Curst]

A user wanted the regular Roboto-font from the 4.3-leak and maybe that user is not alone.

Enjoy!

Thanks, had been poking around in the hopes of finding this.

I tried installing this on my Note 3 but when I select the font it says "This font is not supported. Contact font provider."

Any idea how to fix that?

Thanks!

I don't have access to a Note 3 myself, so i can't examine why i don't work. :-/
My guess is that it might be something with the Andriod-version you are running. What is powering your device?

I'm running stock Samsung software (Android 4.3, XXUBMI7)...

I looked through logcat messages but couldn't see anything relevant.

4.3? But don't you already have this font installed then?

Duh. You're right! I just assumed that Samsung use a different font in their ROM... I've been using CM10 for a LONG time and am now forced to use stock ROM on Note 3 until CM is available so it just looks different overall, I was under the impression that the font is different too. Downloaded the DroidSans.ttf (which is the default font name) and it is in fact Roboto-Regular.

Thanks!

Hello,


First of all thanks for making a flip font of this font. I have a question. Why does this app have permissions for Storage(Modify or delete the contents of your USB storage), Phone Calls and Developmental tools? Other fonts that I have installed don't need this permissions.

Thanks!

Can't install if as well. Notes "contact font provider".

I honestly have no idea. :-/

The APK itself is based on HelvNeueLT.apk from my phone. I simply modded the fontfiles and did some xml-editing.

Hmmm... Since it's based on HelvNeueLT.apk from my phone, maybe it is locked to Galaxy S3s? I don't know, i am no hardcore developer. :-/

Doesn't work on 4.2.2.

 

[epi2097]

Works fine in my S3 4.1.2

Thanks!

Is it just "my" FlipFont that doesn't work with 4.2.2? Like i said, it is simply a remixed apk from my stock 4.1.2.

For all I know you can't install 3'rd party fonts on the Samsung 4.2.2 stock without root+ i.e iFont.

Oh. :-/

But then again, 4.2.2 was only in beta stage right? FlipFont-support will hopefully be added back in 4.3.

Only future will tell!

Any chance of getting the new Roboto font version from L?
