Changing the System Front on Honor 8
Wondering how to apply a font on your Honor 8? You might have an awesome EMUI theme setup but just want to change the font used. This is how to do it.
Fonts will come packaged in .hwt files. This is the same format as theme packages. After finding a font that you like, you can add it to your HWThemes folder.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Now go to settings > Display > Font Style and choose from the fonts listed.
If your fonts do not show up, try using EMUI Theme Editor to apply them.
Check out this thread for some great fonts packaged in the .hwt format.
Great. Is there any list of compatible or incompatible fonts?

I've been searching for some fonts for my Galaxy S2 and I found quite a few and they look awesome, but I've set my eye for one specific font and I just can't find an apk for it. It's the font that appears in the Android logo:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I've also found a thread with this font (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=3771562&highlight=android+logo+font#post3771562),but all files are in zip format and when I unzip them there are only ttf files. I don't have a rooted phone and absolutely no experience in developing, so I have no idea how to install ttf font files to my SGS2. Also I'm not sure if that font in the above link includes slavic letters like Čč, Šš and Žž. I also tried the method in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=745345
but I failed misrebaly.
I would like to have this font on my phone without rooting or flashing.
CAN SOMEONE PLZ MAKE THIS FONT IN APK FORMAT AND (OPTIONAL) INCLUDE SLAVIC LETTERS? THANKS IN ADVANCE, I BELIVE YOU'LL DO A HUGE FAVOUR TO ME AND TO OTHER PEOPLE WHO MAY WANT THIS.

Hey guys. Im looking for some nice pixel fonts. Ive found one named 'chixa' and heres a preview on cm11

Its all fine but that font has one varient only (as opposed to regular/light/condensed like on roboto for stock fonts). So if you guys have suggestion for cool and more complete fonts pls do share. Thank you. By complete i mean unicode compatible. This font has 3000 characters which is good, but MOST have around 200. I know unicode is around like 60 000, but ill take 3000 over 200 anyday.
And here's the APK for the font ive used. I modified an existing APK so the name still is pixel unicode but the actual font name is 'chixa'
(For theme chooser only)

I tried flashing the zip file from DespairFactor found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2563757&page=25
My emoji keyboard looks like this: https://app.box.com/s/u2a6c773yg7j3fhqom2v05t6k69ls5ag
And no emojis show up on the screen. They don't have the box either. It is just blank space where they were.
I am using a Nexus 6 on 6.0 and its rooted.
Solution Found
The Problem is fixed now, in case anyone else had the same problem you can flash the zip from Caiosilva96 which can be found here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BzL4kz3FPLIJYl9QQ25iRnNlM2c/view
You can't access them on the keyboard until Google updates the keyboard, but what I did was put them in my personal dictionary with "mf" giving me the middle finger and then I also put the skin character in there as "c1" "c2" etc and you can add skin colors to the emoji's. Here is what mine look like on the Nexus 6

I am trying to make theme for EMUI that applies custom font with emojis and change how they look on device (replacing the native blob look).
It is the same method that was used by infamous IOS11 emoji theme for EMUI.
I am trying to use new Facebook 3.0 emoji and have all of .png files with correct unicode names.

I use Emoji Tools software for extraction and repackaging but it seems you have to build on the existing extracted font and not from scratch which is why i am getting the errors when trying to pack a new emoji font.
I would need some help finishing this, specially from some authors that offered working ios, oreo,... emoji themes for emui.
