<group android:checkableBehavior="single">
    <item

    android:title="some text"/>
    <item
    android:id="@+id/nav_history"
    android:title="some text"/>

I saw this but it changes only text not the icons ... – Endar Mar 07 '17 at 10:24
What do you mean with **it changes only text not the icons**. – RoShan Shan Mar 07 '17 at 10:27
It changes the text of item on navigation drawer but the icon of item is empty – Endar Mar 07 '17 at 10:31
In your code above, don't have icon. you need to add `android:icon=` to your item menu to set icon. – RoShan Shan Mar 07 '17 at 10:47
yes i know but i want to get the icon from ttf file – Endar Mar 07 '17 at 10:50
The [iconics library](https://github.com/mikepenz/Android-Iconics) does what you want, you can load a font and turn glyphs into drawables then put then as icons into your Navigation menu. – Henrique César Madeira Mar 07 '17 at 11:14
