Hello everyone...

When I was in 4.1.2, I can change my font easily. I install apk font package and use it simple.
But on 4.2.2 I can't change it. I can select samsung default fonts only. When I install apk font package I can't change to it's fonts. I have an error like that: The font package unsupported on your device!

Any way for this issue? Can anyone help me?
My device is rooted

Thanks

Need not root to change font in this case. Just you download flipfonts apk from xda and install after that you can change the font style

If rooted try rom toolbox, there is a free and paid version in play store. It also has themes, splash screens, and of course fonts.

I'm starting to hate JB 4.2

I'm having the same problem. I tried to flip fonts but does not work. RomToolBox but neither worked (my phone is rooted). And to top it off, I tried to apply the "font.zip ubuntu" through CWM and it did not work. I do not know what else to try ...

Update:
Applying the zip via CWM it overwrites the "default font" BUT it is not automatically set. After reboot, you must select one other source, such as "Choco cooky" and then select the default font again, hence the source you made the flash appears.

iFont works if you're rooted. I've used it with a galaxy s4 and g flex.

I do not have any problems installing flip fonts on my Note 8 4.2.2

But for the people that do have problems.

Give this a try...download the flip fonts you like and copy them into.... system/app with root explorer and them from there try to install them see if that works for you.

Hoping this helps :)
