Referring Icon:

Font Awesome provides three set of icons Regular, Solid and Brand. All the icons can be referred from Strings resource file. For example,

@string/map - Regular map icon

@string/heart_solid - Solid heart icon

@string/facebook - Facebook brand icon.

Displaying Text Icon: FontTextView

To display an icon in xml layout, use the FontTextView widget. This class is extended from AppCompatTextView, so all the TextView related properties will apply.

<com.apachat.fontawesome.core.FontTextView
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:text="@string/calendar_check_solid"
            android:textColor="@color/icon_color"
            android:textSize="@dimen/icon_size"
            app:solid_icon="true" />

solid_icon: Use this attribute to display a solid icon (true / false). brand_icon: Use this attribute to display a brand icon (true / false).

Displaying drawable Icon: FontDrawable

If you want to set an icon to a widget (buttons, menus, bottom sheet, navigation drawer), use the FontDrawable class to create font awesome drawable.

Here Paper Plane icon is set to Floating Action Button

FloatingActionButton fab = findViewById(R.id.fab);

// using paper plane icon for FAB
FontDrawable drawable = new FontDrawable(this, R.string.paper_plane_solid, true, false);

// white color to icon
drawable.setTextColor(ContextCompat.getColor(this, android.R.color.white));
fab.setImageDrawable(drawable);

Displaying Icons in Menus (Bottom Navigation, Navigation Drawer, Toolbar and etc.)

You can also display Font Awesome icons in UI elements those use menu file to render items. In the below example, font awesome icons are set to Navigation Drawer items.

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity
        implements NavigationView.OnNavigationItemSelectedListener {
    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

        intDrawerLayout();
    }

    /**
     * Changing navigation drawer icons
     * This involves looping through menu items and applying icons
     */
    private void intDrawerLayout() {
        NavigationView navigationView = findViewById(R.id.nav_view);
        navigationView.setNavigationItemSelectedListener(this);

        ImageView iconHeader = navigationView.getHeaderView(0).findViewById(R.id.nav_header_icon);
        FontDrawable drawable = new FontDrawable(this, R.string.font_awesome, false, true);
        drawable.setTextColor(ContextCompat.getColor(this, android.R.color.white));
        drawable.setTextSize(50);
        iconHeader.setImageDrawable(drawable);

        int[] icons = {
                R.string.home_solid, R.string.calendar_alt_solid, R.string.user_solid,
                R.string.heart_solid, R.string.comment_solid, R.string.dollar_sign_solid, R.string.gift_solid
        };
        renderMenuIcons(navigationView.getMenu(), icons, true, false);

        int[] iconsSubmenu = {R.string.cog_solid, R.string.sign_out_alt_solid};

        renderMenuIcons(navigationView.getMenu().getItem(7).getSubMenu(), iconsSubmenu, true, false);
    }

    /**
     * Looping through menu icons are applying font drawable
     */
    private void renderMenuIcons(Menu menu, int[] icons, boolean isSolid, boolean isBrand) {
        for (int i = 0; i < menu.size(); i++) {
            MenuItem menuItem = menu.getItem(i);
            if (!menuItem.hasSubMenu()) {
                FontDrawable drawable = new FontDrawable(this, icons[i], isSolid, isBrand);
                drawable.setTextColor(ContextCompat.getColor(this, R.color.icon_nav_drawer));
                drawable.setTextSize(22);
                menu.getItem(i).setIcon(drawable);
            }
        }
    }
}
