Hi, I'm using pixel experience android 11. I wanted to change the custom font so I was replacing /system/fonts/Roboto-Regular.ttf with my ttf file.
I faced an error 'This folder is read-only" How do I fix it? If not, is there any other way to change fonts?

You have to be rooted with magisk and use a magisk module.

The phone is rooted already, but I couldn't find the font changer module anywhere.
The post from xda is missing the download link, and it's nowhere on Google either. Can you help?

Put the fonts you want in the CFI folder in this zip and flash in magisk app.
Try this script. It makes system, vendor and product partitions read write on Android 10 and newer.

i think everyone knows what i mean
is this something that can only be modified while the rom is being created? I just wondered if you could make it show something simply by mounting the file system with read/write and editing the file after flashing the rom to a phone.

I think you can go into terminal and edit the build.prop manually through there. Otherwise you can just go into the update.zip and edit the build.prop there.

I don't know if you still need help with this or whether you found a solution, yet, but there is this tool that you can use to compile and extract emoji files. Unfortunately the tutorial page for the applet doesn't exist anymore, but it shouldn't be too difficult to figure out how the program works.

Just search "svg to ttf" in google.
You will find plenty of tutorials and videos.
Hi Guys,
Sharing with you how to activate the classic theme from WW Rom on the CN Firmware.
Please note this requires Root.
Download this File to your ROG II.
This is aa ZIP file, DO NOT unpack or mod it. Just download it and keep as is.
Copy the above zip file to the below location using a root explorer / root file manager.
system\etc\AsusTheme\themes

Then set the correct permissions to the file as shown in the last attached image.
Restart your device and check in themes.
Just delete file hidden and reboot
this is great, thanks
can i then use another launcher as default now that i'm rooted? i mean without disabling asus launcher via adb command line and such?

No, As long as the Asus launcher exists in system, it will always take priority over any other launcher installed.
what are the other themes that you have on there?
I only have the light and dark one. It looks like you have 6

Remove that "hidden" file in that folder and if you put the classic theme in it, you will have 6.
None of this worked for me. I am on tencent 12gb with WW and cannot access any of the themes. Any advice?

You need to use root explorer and mount r/o then you can delete it. Not sure why just having regular root sync won't. But in that app specifically it works.

Use esfile explorer. Swipe from lest and click on root explorer on/off option. 6 option will popup, select "mount r/w " option and tick r/w. Done. Now you can delet it.
Hi to all, I've got a xt2041-3 stock rom, rooted with magisk and with twrp;
I'd like to change the bootlogo (to cover the warning advice), and the bootanimation (I hate the stock one).
All the info tell me to replace the bootanimation.Zip file, but i cannot find it in root/system/media (i see onli a wallpaper folder).
I've tried also to flash some bootanimation, le dialogue confirm the correct installation, but at the reboot nothing is changed....
OT: @Admin, it miss a moto g8 power folder in the motorola devices thread.
I've found (i think) the correct path: System/product/media where i finally can see the bootanimation.zip to replace, but i cannot change the permissions to operate on the file..

The system partition cannot be mounted as read/write. They there is technically a way, but it requires lptools built for Android, and I don't have a copy of it. I believe lptools is included in Phh's Android 11 GSI.
So the tips of the bootanimation file replacing is not working with the g8 power? Any suggestions? Tnx!

Turn on developer options tapping build number constantly and than turn off automatic update there. That's it, enjoy.

That doesn't work anymore; that's why everyone is complaining that they are being force updated to OOS11.
I know there's a better way, such as finding the right app and disabling it, but you can block the host it gets the updates from using an adblocker like AdAway. Updates come from
https://android.googleapis.com/packages/ota-api/
so if you block that (add it to your hosts file), you should be good.

That's the only simple way I could think of making it impossible to download the update so it would then just fail to update. You sure you have the option on in Magisk settings in addition to whatever app you are using?
Edit: The "correct" way of stopping it would be to find the service which controls updates and kill it. But since I've not an issue with OOS11 (it actually fixed my broken SA 5G and HD call functionality that I lost due to using the NSG app. MSM restore and persist restore couldn't fix it. Never ever install that app on this phone) I never looked into it.

Yep, that's what I use and was gonna suggest...
Hmm, hehe, try this...
It downloads the OTA package to
/data/ota_package/payload_metadata.bin
If there's a file there, delete it, then create a blank file named payload_metadata.bin and remove all permissions from the file (--- --- --- or 0000) so the system can't overwrite it.

But here's a better plan:
Use Magisk to "over-write" systemlessly /system/etc/security/otacerts.zip with a blank file named otacerts.zip
Then the system can't verify the updates and they will fail
