thank you, I downloaded it, too many files along with ttf file, what to do?
if you use the "font changer" app, there will be a folder in your sdcard named ".fontchanger", you just put the 2 files there(e.g. Zegoe.ttf and Zegoe-Bold.ttf), then once you open the actual fontchanger app it will be there as one of the choices, just click it then apply and reboot
alternatively, you can just use root explorer to overwrite the 2 files in /system/fonts:
- first, rename your desired font to DroidSans.ttf(for regular) and DroidSans-Bold.ttf(for the bold)
- put the 2 files in system/fonts overwriting the original files then set permissions to rw-r-r then reboot
*those two files are all you need, the normal and the bold .ttf

I couldn't find the fonts you have, Zegoe & Ubunto.
see attached file which is originally from that thread also
I'm trying to install the Nokia SANS font my galaxy s2
ive downloaded font changer, and copied the font into the relevant folder
i can see the font but when I select it and reboot it fails to change
where can i copy this font for it to appear in
display, screen display fonts so I can try it that way?
Any other suggestions?
The font I have is a single file with the file format .ttf
Just extract the fonts, save it to your sdcard, and replace the one in the system/fonts using rooxplorer. Then reboot Make sure the "default" font is checked.
I am developing a zooper widgets pack, and trying to save the widgets as zips.
I kept getting this error:
Java.io.FileNotFoundException /fonts/BebasNueue.otf
I tried creating a folder called /fonts/ and moved the BebasNueue.otf into it. Still an error.
Does anyone have experience knows how to fix this?
maybe its the *.otf
whats happen when you transfer a *.ttf font!
I keep getting the same error for Akashi font. It says there is no Akashi.TTF in fonts folder but I actually put it in there by myself, so there definitely IS the required file. It's in TTF format. Restart didn't change anything. Any ideas?
Edit: I also tried to create a "fonts" folder in root directory, but ES File Explorer says there's not enough space (I have approx. 4GB free space left). Tried to copy in recovery but after boot the folder is gone.
SGS5, CM12, TWRP
So, I needed to add a new font to my fire phone so that I can view my native language.
Thinking fire os 4.6.3 is just a customization on android KitKat(4.4.4) I went ahead and tried to add my fonts (Noto Sans Sinhala) to /system/fonts directory. But It was a read only sqfs partition. So I unmounted it and copied it's contents to a actual /system/fonts directory. Then I added a new font family with my fonts in /system/etc/fallback_fonts.xml and rebooted which is the trick for JB and later roms. Nothing happened! Still no native language.
Then I tried replacing a default android font I normally don't use(Noto Sans Thai). Still not working. So I changed Droid Sans Fallback font, which is the oldest trick to get new glyphs. Nope, still not working.
After fiddling around a little, I found a fontconfig cache in /system/etc/fonts along with fontconfig configuration files!! Something I haven't seen in any other android roms. Finally, I came to the conclusion that I might have to rebuild the fontconfig cache.
Dose anyone know how to trigger a fontconfig cache rebuild? or some other way around it?
So, as It turns out, Adding fonts to the fire phone is even easier than the rest of the KK devices. Just copy your fonts to /system/fonts and delete /system/etc/fonts/cachedir/[longname].cache-3 reboot and you are done
madushan1000, how did you umount /mnt/sqfs? I tried un-mounting via file manager with root privilege and wouldn't let me un-mount. I'm trying to replace a default android font (droidfallback.ttf) and keep getting permission denied even though I have root. Your help is appreciated.
You don't have to unmount it. Just delete the fonts sqfs image and extract it's content to /system/fonts and reboot. FYI you might have to remove some "system" app to do this. There is not enough space left on the system partition.
madushan1000,
Care to tell detail instruction? Thank you so much.

Hi madushan1000,
This is what I did and still not OK. (Need to restore previous version as Font are lost)
1. Copy Fonts to Sdcard
2. Delete /system/sqfs/container.sqfs
3. mkdir fonts folder under /system
4. Copy back fonts to /system/fonts
Please help me advise. Thank you so much in advance..
Hi @kaungmyataung, I'm going to answer your PM here:
Well, madushan1000 and I had the same approach to the "problem", but I deleted only the container and copied the fonts folder to the usual path.
madushan1000 went even further with his custom XML test.
It seems you did everything right: deleted the container, copied the fonts in the correct folder...
I assume, I checked / set the permissions for the "fonts" folder to 755 and that's all I did.
Oh... and I only deleted unwanted fonts, I didn't add new ones.

You can't copy fonts because it's not a real folder, just a mounted container (read only). Follow Madushan's lead:
madushan1000 said:
locate the sqfs image ('./system/sqfs/container.sqfs') and extract its content to './system/fonts'
you can create the 'fonts' folder manually, just be sure to set permission to 0755 for the folder and 0644 for the font files
FYI: you might have to remove some "system" apps / files to do this. There is not enough space left on the system partition
Easiest way to gain enough free space is to delete the language files for Ivona TTS ('./system/tts/ivona')
One folder for each language, for example "eng.usa.nina_1418201400000". Folders can be deleted if you don't use Ivona TTS.

Or you can just delete the sqfs file, create the 'fonts' folder and use this flashable zip via Safestrap / TWRP.
I deleted the CN and JP fonts*, etc. so it's less than 20 MB compared to over a 100 MB from the default sqfs container and you wouldn't be forced to delete system files in order to make enough room.

After creating the real 'fonts' folder, you can spam your phone with iFont.

I deleted /system/sqfs/container.sqfs and then tried to copy the fonts to /system/fonts since it rejected for "unmounted folder" even being root user, I dont remember the exact error message but I just rebooted the Kindle Fire HD 3rd gen, now it bricked Boot loop, no matter factory reset at the boot recovery, it simply stays at the boot loop, any suggestion to at least recover it?
Hello,
Here is a quick guide on how to replace the boot animation and system font on oos 10.0 (Android Q).
ROOT is required.
Boot animation:
1. Download the attached zip and extract it.
2. Download a custom boot animation of your choice (XDA Boot animations collection).
3. Rename the downloaded boot animation file to "bootanimation.zip" and copy it to "BootAndFont > system > media > bootanimation.zip".
You can skip now if you don't want custom font.
If you don't want to change Fonts, just delete the "fonts" directory.
4. Download custom fonts of your choice.
5. Rename the fonts to their relatives in the "BootAndFont > system > fonts " directory.
6. After everything is in place, using root explorer (such as ES File Explorer) move both "BootAndFont" and "module.prop" into the device to the following location
"/data/adb/modules/"
(You can see the final result in the attached images.)
7. Go to Magisk, refresh the modules and make sure that the new module is now on the last.
Reboot the device and everything should work!
*Tested on OP7T, Should work on every OOS 10.
*Current Font is Germania-one, you can leave it as-is if you want.
Feel free to ask questions.

What happens if i have a separate font module? Will that get overwritten even if i delete the font folder?
Can confirm this works! I'm running OP7TP5G (TMobile) running the latest Magisk.
If anyone is unclear of the directions, once you bring the custom boot animation zip in the BootandFont folder, you have to just simply take the BootandFont folder and move it to the location OP mentions. Go into Magisk and confirm, once you are done reboot and you should have the new bootanimation (and or font)
This method is better than the other bootanimation thread on this forum as this does not require you to flash in Magisk nor worry about the permission write error you will get. Much appreciated it hella weird too because I was up all night trying to figure this out and then you come up with this guide ???

If you are removing the "fonts" folder, then it will not overwrite your current font.

Hi,
You are correct, on part 6, I wrote by mistake to move the bootandfont.zip instead of moving the directory only.
To apply your custom font, first, you need to understand that in different scenarios different fonts are used.
for example when tinted or Bold.
if you have a tinted version of your font should replace it according to the font name.
if you have just 1 version of your font, you can duplicate your font file and rename the copies with every one of the "Roboto" file.
You can see in the attached photo that all of the files are the same. (They are all GermaniaOne that was renamed to what the system is looking for).
I hope it works for you, please contact me if you still have troubles

Gotcha....Thanks alot bro...
I have a noobie question. Can't you just do the simple: move downloaded boot animation to the system file and replace it with the the stock boot animation and change permissions? A reply would be much appreciated

Android 10 system is read only so you need to use magisk to do it systemeless
Hey Yaaria,
Is there any way to replace the lock.ogg and unlock.ogg in root/system/product/media/audio/ui or it could be done using magisk systemless? Please suggest.

I've got same question here. When i'll have a free moment i'll try to flash this module with ui sounds.
EDIT: nope. There's something wrong with product mount, it's not working
@yaaria thank you for the guide, I installed animation etc. I downloaded font : roboto.medium.ttf
How select the font? must rename the roboto.medium.ttf, to Germaniaone.ttf ? and delete the ( first) Germaniaone.ttf?
Will this mod (font change attribute) work on stock AOSP ROM?
Nevertheless thanks for contribution.
Edit - Never mind it worked flawlessly.... Thanks for awesome tweak.
OMG Thank You! This is so awesome! I was looking for a way to change both of these and you killed 2 birds with one module. At first it didn't work but I then realized that the BootandFont folder was inside another BootandFont folder somehow, all I did was copy the folder containing the module.prop and system folder to the adb modules folder and deleted the duplicate folder it was in but the fonts didn't work. Then I realized I needed to copy the font I wanted running on My phone 18 times and rename them to all those roboto files, so the system loads the file but gets a different font! I now have the glitchy Cyberpunk 2077 Oni/Samurai mask boot image and the OCR-A font running flawlessly on My OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren. You're awesome!
hey when i try to replace the stock animation it keep saying "the read only file error cannot change" stuff what should i do now ??
Why wont this work on OOS 11?
