Also remember to backup the stock font before doing anything.
The tutorial is made based on Android 4.2.2
[Guide] How to make your own font
Preparation: 1. a rooted device
2. a file manager, e.g. ES file manager
How to do?
1. find any fonts online like http://www.dafont.com/
2. Download it
3. If it is not in ttf format, convert it to ttf by : http://www.freefontconverter.com/
4. Change name: your regular font to DroidSans.ttf, RobotoCondensed-Regular.ttf, Roboto-Regular.ttf (Make 3 in total)
your bold font to DroidSans-Bold.ttf, RobotoCondensed-Bold.ttf, Roboto-Bold.ttf (Make 3 in total) (if your font have this)
5. put it back to your phone by file manager (your phone should be rooted and file manager should gain granted by supersu/superuser) into /system/fonts
6. reboot

Real situation:
I like waltograph but cannot find any in xda, so I may one by my own.
1. I download font here: http://www.dafont.com/walt-disney.font
2. Then unzip the file, I get waltograph42.otf and waltographUI.ttf.
3. you just click on it and and find waltograph42.otf represent the regular font, while waltographUI.ttf represents the bold font.
4. Convert waltograph42.otf to ttf by http://www.freefontconverter.com/
5. Make 3 copies of waltograph42.ttf and name them DroidSans.ttf, RobotoCondensed-Regular.ttf, Roboto-Regular.ttf
6. make 3 copies of waltographUI.ttf and name them DroidSans-Bold.ttf, RobotoCondensed-Bold.ttf, Roboto-Bold.ttf
7. connect the phone to pc and place all 6 files into your sdcard

Thank you very much for writing this up. I will give it a try!
I used to install fonts on the go with Rom Toolbox but on the One only 1 font over 5 is working,many of them will freeze the phone on boot.
Dunno if someone has found an app 100% compatible yet
Will try this evening, thanks

Well for most font apps. It can fully apply on samsung only. For other phone, we need to use carefully as it may cause boot loop.
And now for the One, there are some font apps too, but it still cannot help to change all your font in the system. You can try, but I recommend you to use the method above.
Font apps recommend: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kapp.ifont
Note, it can only change some system font only, not all..... e.g. you can see your installed font in some apps, while in homepage, you will see the stock font
I found a good solution,I downloaded a font resize app because all that matters for me is bigger fonts,I have a short vision weakness
I have the problem of fonts restoring to it's original fonts after reboot.
Someone said to flash custom kernel with rw capabilites change (or) delete certain .ko files under /system/modules.
I can't find how to do both and any ideas please?
Thanks in advance.
Hey guys. I'm new to this whole process. I decided to try my hand at putting one of my Zooper widget designs up on the Market, and I'm trying to work my way through the process. When I try to create the APK file using Zooper on my phone, I get the following error:
Failed: java.io.FileNotFoundException: /fonts/BebasNeue.otf: open failed: ENOENT (No such file or directory)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I'm not sure what to do. In a random attempt to solve the problem, I downloaded the BebasNeue.otf file from an online font site, and tried placing it in both the sdcard/ZooperWidget/Fonts folder, AND the normal sdcard/font folder, but this did not help. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!
I even tried creating an sdcard/fonts directory (with the 's') since that's what the error message is giving, but to no avail. I'm assuming I need to have a folder somewhere, but I guess I just don't know WHERE Zooper is looking for it.

I was create fonts folder in root,sdcard and excard then still not working
did you figure this out?
I created a fonts folder on system root, and still get the error about fonts missing. i have tried to copy the font to the new font folder on the system root and get an error thats theres not enough space. not sure what to do next?
Thanks for any help.
Trying to create such a folder but ES file explorer says there's no space left (actually there's 4GB left). When creating in recovery it's not there after boot.
Got root access for ES.
S5, CM12, TWRP
I had the same issue a few weeks ago.. My problem was that I had the same fonts both on fonts system directory both on Zooper fonts dir. When I picked the font for an element it seems that I chose the system font and not the Zooper one (in fact the same font was reported two times in Zooper dialog).. When I picked the other font the export zip was finally successfully..
Another suggestion I can give is to check if font file has white spaces in its name, and eventually remove it.. Hope it helps!
EDIT: @Hornet991 try to rename your file to something like akami.ttf with lowerspace chars..

Tried again and finally found a solution for me. In font dialog, zooper says "save on sdcard in fonts/" so i simply created such a folder on sdcard/ (internal) and copied akashi.ttf in it. then renamed it "akami.ttf" to see which font is the new placed, cause I had the original akashi.ttf still shown in zooper-dialogue. chose the new "akami.ttf" and it saved properly.
Thanks for your support.
[FIXED] Font Error While Saving APKzip
This is the only solution that Works:
The "problem lies with the in-built fonts of zooper". Notice that the Error comes up due to any font you use except for the 'Normal' font and a few others:
These are the fonts that caused error for me:
1. Roboto all the variant)
2.Robot Condensed (all the variants)
3..Akashi
3.Squared
4.Future and
5.Disco
The Solution is to never use the in-built fonts always use your own downloaded fonts and put them in the folder /sdcard/ZooperWidget/Fonts. And remember to check the option "Store external resources...." while saving your work.
Things can be just so easy.
after trying a while with framework-res.apk i got rid of the usual black background in launcher by just setting
<bool name="config_enableWallpaperService">false</bool> to true in res\values\bools.xml
compiled it back and updated it via cwmrecovery zip installation
Also livewallpaper are working.
UPDATE: Thanx to @superkoal
Xposed Module
but u still need the files from next link to get them working:

just install via cwm. for sure do a backup before.
i'm not responsible if something went wrong, with this installation.
ALSO Do A BACKUP of your original Framework-res.apk!!!
Also don't forget to install Gallery.apk or livewallpaperpicker, else it is not possible to select any wallpaper.
so after a factory reset i wanted to try it again.
sems that i might have installed some other parts from another rom, like systemui.apk-

What is the difference between the two downloads? I downloaded the first one, but have to wait an hour before I can download the second one. Should I install the second one and not the first?
I'm having trouble installing this with CWM. I have my system and data mounted to an external drive and CWM doesn't access it. It keeps saying folder not found, then it reverts to what I assume is the original internal data folder on the FTV itself. I'm not sure how to access this internal folder now using a file explorer. Any thoughts that don't involve messing with unmounting my external drive?
**Edit** I manual replaced the framework-res.apk using root explorer, then realized I needed to install your second files as well and now it works prefectly! No more black background for me. I've got a spinning galaxy and stars!
Thanks for the work on this!
That are good news,
thanks for reply....
now i also got rid, of some amazon apps. now have around 127mb /system free storage.
removed ftvlauncher, whisperplay,gamecircle,demomode and a few other things with titanium backup.
also stock launcher switcher worked now when press homebutton. Can someone pm me a few aosp 4.2.2 stock files from settings app and from tablet? i get crashes in settings.apk maybe i have to install a few more stock apks, that don't come with aftv in stock.
btw. Tabletui is working with adb shell am display-density 240
settings.apk is in splitscreen (crashes in different accesses). played around with some themed xposed modules and lolipop theme.
will try the next weeks, till i got my setup finished ^-^

That is cool that you're testing the limits. Tonight I plan to make a video about my setup. I've used a lot of the various mods/tweaks available for the ATV and have a kick ass setup.
Manually?

so just push the framework-res.apk to sdcard and replace it w/ the one in the system folder? because I did the install via cwm to no avail and I installed the 3 apks in the background.zip manually
be sure mount /system in cwm manual. should work, or replace it manually via fileexplorer and to be sure
chmod 644 /system/framework/framework-res.apk
and don't forget to have a backup via cwm to be safe...

I am curious what Amazon apps you've removed and what other mods you've done. Can you update what you've been up to with the FTV?
I only made a backup of all amazon apps, i might to remove, with titanium backup before i uninstalled them.
f.eg. amazon app store, circle, movie, mp3, photo (installed gallery2.apk from a 10.1 cm stock rom) installed clock.apk from rom to exchange amazon screensaver and replaced it with a clock. but i messed to much around, so i had to go back to my backup i generated with cw recovery
also deodexed apps and framework files to get a little more space on sys. also deleted files under vendor/amazon (here are the overlay-files stored.
sadly i'm out of time for this week to extend my tsteing in getting a full settings.apk working wich i had before i messed up while replacing all system apks from a cm 4.2.2 rom

That screenshot looks awesome! I want to try it when I have time. But I also noticed you have ROM manager installed. I never even thought about using it, probably because I have twrp on my other devices. How's it working for you? Are you able to use the stock remote?
That's a much better option than plugging in a USB keyboard every time you want to do something in recovery.
Took me a while to get it straight, but below are my simple instructions for us that aren't fluent in all things Android...
Download schybiorz's files from this thread.
http://uploaded.net/file/8awolkyk
http://ul.to/oqs87yb6
Extract "framework-res.apk" from the zip file in the first download above. Copy the "framework-res.apk" file to your FireTV. I used AGKFire.
Extract and install the apk's from the second download above. You can just click on them from ES File Explorer if you've pushed them, or use AGKFire or whichever method you use to sideload apps.
I also installed the "Gallery.apk" file, downloaded from the following thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1953999
Backup your FireTV "framework-res.apk" file. I used Root Explorer from the Play Store. Navigate to the /system/framework/ directory and copy "framework-res.apk" to your sdcard somewhere to save as a backup.
Connect to your FireTV using adb from your computer and type the following commands:
adb kill-server
adb start-server
adb connect [FireTV IP Address]
adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount /system
cp /sdcard/AGKFire/framework-res.apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk
chmod 644 /system/framework/framework-res.apk
exit
exit
Then, just reboot your FireTV. Take note, in the cp (copy) command above, the copy-from location (where I have AGKFire) needs to be where you have the apk file on your FireTV. So if you have it in the root of the sdcard, the command will be as follows:
cp /sdcard/framework-res.apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk
I tried to flash schybiorz's zip file using cwm, but for some reason, it didn't replace the "framework-res.apk" file, which is why I did it manually as indicated above. I also didn't do a cwm backup, so proceed at your own risk.
I use Nova Launcher, so I have to use a mouse to pick wallpapers from LiveWallpaperPicker or the Gallery, but live and static wallpapers work wonderfully now though!

Needed this!!! Thanks for the detailed instructions, because I tried before using a mouse I copied the original framework-res.apk and put it in another folder, then pushed the downloaded framework-res.apk to sdcard...but got an error when copying the downloaded one. so now I guess I can just go ahead and run the command cp /sdcard/framework-res.apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk and it will copy it?

You will have to enter the commands as I listed them...well, as far as I know. I did quite a bit of Googling. You must make the system directory writeable, which is the reason for the "mount -o rw,remount /system" command. Then, the chmod command sets the permissions once you have copie the modified framework over.
But I did just notice that someone made a xposed wallpaper enabler module in the 'FireTV Themes and Apps' forum. Which may be the better way to go...easier anyway.

Thing is, over the last 6 months to a year, that is the message you always get, doesn't matter the time of day.

You can also use any 4.2.2 wallpaper and live picker apk you want. no need for mine. but feel free to upload them on another hoster.
Important is the fact, that the wallpaper service is enabled in framework-res, wich is now easy done via xposed-module ^-^

Ya, but I can't download the framework-res file either, and while googling brings up may places that have the file, I do not know if they have the changes you did for the AFTV.
So if someone could be nice and upload the files to another file hosting site, i'd be thankful.

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.
Rgds,
Kaung
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:

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?
