DroidSansFallback’s Asian Font

For customs Android ROMs there are many chances that the developers are European and thus Asian language is ignoed in their custom ROMs.

To make Chinese/Korean/Japanese possible to display on the phone, we need to find the correct font, which is named “DroidSansFallback.ttf”.  Put the file into the directory of the ADB, and then push it to the phone like this:

adb remount
adb push DroidSansFallback.ttf /system/fonts
adb shell reboot

The file should be 4.14MB.  Smaller ones are missing some of the CJK characters.

This method does not work for Arab fonts, which also needs another files (Tip: Keyword are “libskia.so” and “Arabic”)
