Root is the best solution.

thanks guys i really found another solution for the problem. the problem was that i wanted to change the font in the latest rom of the Darkside 4.0 to the default android font so i just replaced the font folder form version 3.3 into version 4.0 then i reflashed it and yaaaaaaaaay worked .

Thanks bro that program is amazing i will keep it forever
Is changing the font a particularly invasive procedure?
I run CM 7.1 Stable and tried using ROM Toolbox to change fonts over the weekend and things got all kinds of screwy. After testing the first few fonts I started having massive force close issues with various programs. Then I ended up boot looping and had to reinstall my saved ROM backup to get things working again.
Are there different qualities in font managers out there?
Is there a way to use ROM Toolbox wrong?
If I need to root, that's fine. Is there an app in the Play store that will do this? I see quite a few Font Installer apps, but I know that not all of them work correctly on different phones and OEM rom's.
On my Nexus 4 I had a Roboto Light zip file that just told the system to use Roboto Light (as opposed to actually overwriting fonts). Can the same method be used on this phone?
Thanks!

I use Font installer by JRummy. Has tons of fonts to choose from. Have to be rooted. The weird thing about it is, that when you find a font u like, and install it, the phone will reboot, and the font will look the same as it was. You have to go into settings/display/font type, and if u look at roboto, it changes that one to the one u installed. Just choose roboto, and it will be the font u downloaded with the app....
Great, thanks! Is there an easy way to undo this if I want?

Any of the font changers in the play store should work. And you can change the font size in your display settings if I'm not mistaken!

Yes..but not for all font can be replaced with my own font with this rom. If you replace Roboto Bold with other font you want, after reboot will stuck.
*note: not change font size,but replace existing font with other font.
Btw thanks for info :beer:

DroidSans
DroidSans -Bold
DroidSansKorean
DroidSansKorean-Bold

I used rom toolbox. I went into settings on phone changed font to anything but robots. Picked font on rom toolbox, downloaded. Then restart phone, go back into settings and now pick robots. The font you downloaded will be applied under the robots name. Then restart phone again and new font will be everywhere. Works great

I use Font Installer on my VZW G2, and it works fine. Using the Comic font as we speak. Not sure why you're having issues with it. Using rooted Clean Rom if it matters.
