Here's my question, I'd like to switch out the fonts in the Rom I'm using is the Bowtie from Nebula (loving it by the way). I'd just like to switch fonts is all. What would I need to do. I read a few post a while back in some other threads that to use metamorph but the apply says for advanced users. I don't think I'm on advanced level yet but I would still like to learn.

Metamorph is really easy to use.
Download the free version from the market, once its installed you can download a zip with fonts in it then just apply the don't you want to use.
EDIT:
Search the threads for (metamorph changing fonts on the fly) and there is a zip file you can download there to use with metamorph.

You can also flash this (attached) through Clockwork. What I do is, open up this zip (use program 7zip, if you don't already, on your computer),
Take any font, rename it to DroidSans.ttf or DroidSans-Bold.ttf.. etc, copy and replace any fonts inside this zip, then flash.
Or, you can just check out the mother of all xda font threads: 200 Flashable Font Packs
I think ComfortAA (the attached one) is still my fav though.
You guys rock! I asked a question and you guys answered quick and perfect. I'm gonna try these out. Thank you thank you thank you! People like you guys and this community make my phone The Shizznit!

hm-- I'm pretty sure the attachment was straight from that thread-- are you flashing 'normally' through clockwork?

ComfortAA is my current favorite as well. I use root explorer to copy the DroidSans.ttf and DroidSans-Bold.ttf files on my sd card and paste them over the default files in the system/font folder. When I restart the phone, my font is there.
I bought Root System Font installer from the market. Over 200 fonts, you can preview the font and its easy.

I can't find anything in the settings for changing the font and rom toolbox does nothing but send my phone into a boot loop... Anyone know how(can explain)?? I have a lot of font apk's from GB I'd like to use.
Go the hard way: fonts are stored under /system/fonts and you just have to replace them all you like with a root-enabled file explorer. If your fonts are in an APK pack, extract with WinRAR/WinZIP and look for .ttf files inside.

Rename to the system names (but there are many font files, do make sure which you want to replace!) and replace them. Don't forget to set permission to rw-r--r--. Then just reboot to see effect. If anything happens just flash the original ROM without wiping anything.

All of the fonts are individual apk files.. How do you extract the ttf files?

I mean, can't you open the apk's with WinRAR or WinZIP? (if necessary, change the file extension to .zip) Extract and seek .ttf files in it. I can't guarantee you will find it though, as I always directly fetch readily-available ttf files and never used these font APKs. Maybe that's different.
A bit offa topic: why change when system default (the Roboto font family) is beautiful enough?

When I change some of the file I get stuck in a forever boot. Am I doing something wrong?

Then you must be doing wrong, or you might haven't set correct permissions after replacing files.
Anyway, I'm free on summer vacation, so you can send me the fonts you want to use (font name or file, both are okay, BUT it has to be a font family with at least bold, italic and bold+italic variants!), and I'll see if I can pack up a flashable zip for you.

I see now what I was doing wrong. The font I was trying to use wasn't bold and I was trying to load it into a bold file in the system folder. Thank you for the quick response.
I know this isn't apart of the tread but how would you go about packing fonts in a zip to flash?

Normally I have to base my flashable zip on an already existing one, then I just replace the fonts inside, slightly tweak the update-script, repack, re-sign and all done. Dunno how to go into details...

The .hwt is just a .zip renamed .. download a theme .hwt rename it in .zip and unzip it then modify what you want
On old version of Huawei HiSuite we can create theme but only compatible with Emui 1.6 today we don't have any software this functionality was deleted .
OK, but when I unzip the theme, I don't find the battery icon in the nav bar, which is the thing I want to modify. I want to change it to another one, how is that possible?

Thanks for the advice. :good:
I also decompiled the xblast.apk but many questions came to mind, it's not as easy as I thought to just change one little icon. :laugh:
I find only 2 smali files for stock battery (B513). In Xblast apk there are also 2 smali files for circle battery, but I found many more battery smali files and I have no idea what exactly I have to change.
I have attached screenshots for the smali files I found in systemui.apk and xblast.apk and also the systemui.apk itself and xblast.apk
Any help will be appreciated.

You don't need any smali files only the .PNG files of circle battery and replace them with the battery PNG in systemui.apk, res , drawable-xhdpi

Can you tell exactly what have you done? Because the method described by macklon should work.
You have a .hwt file (for example theme.hwt). Then you change the name of that file from theme.hwt to theme.zip, unzip that file and edit what you want. After that, add all files and folders (just everything extracted from the original theme.zip) to a zip archive (for example theme1.zip. The structure inside theme1.zip should be the same as in theme.zip). Finally, rename theme1.zip to theme1.hwt and that's it.

[First & New] Huawei Theme Creator App Emotion UI
http://forum.xda-developers.com/mat...emotion-ui-t3135067/post61343610#post61343610
Ok, I exported all relevant graphical content from EMUI. To extract this all files, you'll need to have 7zip. Files are in 3 .zip archieves because of restriction of xda uploads to 20MB.

Nearly all the apps covered. I don't have tools for oppo theme so if someone here has it, please use these icons and make themes. And please share your theme here.
Thank you.
you don't need tools,
1. change extension from .theme to .zip and extract it.
2.find icons file and replace it or you can extract it(add .zip extension)
3. repack all, for icons.zip, delete .zip extension and for theme archive, change extension from .zip to .theme
Your tool is file manager app ?️, just use it!
Good luck!
Thank you. I have tried this but failed. Let me try it again and see how things goes.

Your icon pack is not fully compatible with color os 5.1

One element on the zip file is missing... It is the "allapps.xml"... The one thing that is very important to generate the icons onto homescreen...
