[ROOT][5.0+] Font Selector (by Igor Eisberg) [1.0]

As some of you probably know, the SomcFontSelector.apk in the Japanese firmware for the latest devices is pretty useless to us. It has only 4 built-in fonts with no options for other languages and no possibility to create font packs, or anything similar. So... I coded one of my own.

I present you my own Font Selector. Completely remade in Android Studio. Supports specialized and very flexible font packs that are specifically made for this selector.
I also include 2 ready-to-use font packs and there are more to come, as well as a quick guide for creating your own font packs for this selector.
One more thing, this selector is highly portable. With a few tweaks to "fonts.xml" in your "system/etc" folder you could also use this selector. You don't have to have an Xperia device.
However, these flashable ZIPs were created for Xperia devices running Lollipop and newer. It replaces all of your fonts with the lastest fonts from Marshmallow, as well as modded XML files that allow this selector to do its job. Don't flash these ZIPs on a non-Xperia device or an Xperia device that runs KitKat or older.

REQUIREMENTS:
  • Xperia device running Android 5.0 or newer.
  • Rooted + Custom Recovery
  • Deodexed
  • Disabled Signature Verification (Patched compareSignatures in 'services.jar')

Screenshots from my Xperia Z1 customized stock-based ROM, showing off the Biko font pack:





There are 2 variants with only one difference: one with a launcher icon, the other without.
I recommend to download the "No Icon" variant, flash it and the "Font" shortcut will automatically appear in your Settings->Display. (mostly works on newer firmware)
And that's the reason why I kept the package name "com.sonymobile.fontselector", because the Settings app checks if it's installed.
If the shortcut doesn't appear, flash the "With Icon" variant. That will place a "Font" launcher icon instead.
