It's an old question but if someone cares, the problem is on the implementation of the constructor:

public CustomFontEditText(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
    this(context, attrs, 0);
    this.context = context;
}

The last argument ("defStyle") which you set as 0, should be the default style for an EditText. If you take a look at the same constructor on the EditText class:

public EditText(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
    this(context, attrs, com.android.internal.R.attr.editTextStyle);
}

As you can see, the default style for an EditText should be used, so your constructor should look like this:

public CustomFontEditText(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
    this(context, attrs, android.R.attr.editTextStyle);
    this.context = context;
}
