You have 2 basic requirements for this “hack”
1. Phone MUST be ROOTED!!!
2. MUST be a True Type font or your phone won’t read it and you’ll have a $500 PaperWeight =D
Disclaimer: If you don’t understand these simple steps, you should NOT be messing with your phone. They are self explanatory and I will not be held responsible for your bricked phone.
Alright, let’s get to the fun stuff now
1. Create a folder in the SD card ROOT folder, I just used “new_font”
2. Copy the font you want to use to that folder. (I recommend using a font that has “normal” and “bold” types)
3. Name the “normal” font DroidSans.ttf and the “bold” font DroidSans.ttf
4. Create a folder to store the stock font, I named mine “orig_font”
5. Using Terminal on your phone do the following:
su
mount -o remount /dev/mtdblock4 /system
cat /system/fonts/DroidSans.ttf > /sdcard/orig_font/DroidSans.ttf
cat /system/fonts/DroidSans-Bold.ttf > /sdcard/orig_font/DroidSans-Bold.ttf
cat /sdcard/new_font/DroidSans.ttf > /system/fonts/DroidSans.ttf
cat /sdcard/new_font/DroidSans-Bold.ttf > /system/fonts/DroidSans-Bold.ttf
mount -o ro,remount /dev/mtdblock4 /system
sync
reboot
6. You should now have new font on your phone
