[quote name='ZilverZurfarn;7806]If I try to rearrange the commands to be entered' date=' I get this - The idea is to copy the fonts from SD to /system/fonts which wont work, as /system is readonly regardless of root or not. Only way to do it is to add the fonts to a /system image, and flash it to your pad. (Which again makes me wish for /system on a writable file system.)[/QUOTE'] HelloYou are right , i think like you say , but now i need to check the imgfile which pro can open it and rezip it again , then update my pad with it.i will let you know if i sucessregards
Yes you are right , i try to modify the img , but can't , it's not opening , i try many software , but it's encrypted .so , need to try other way of modify the boot img.thank u

yes , but the same , not successful.most of the method on the internet i try them.no lcukthanks 4 tryingxaueious;8051 said:Wait I'm confused now. So you can't push to the /system partition at all? This wasn't what I thought. The system partition should be writable somehow. Did you try adb remount?
RogerCould you put the link here and share the info , plzrogerbraun;12838 said:You don't need to change boot.img just to add some fonts. In the hybrid rom thread there is a post by me how to modify the system.img. You can just change the fonts there.
