One might say its easier said than done. I will pose this question first: how comfortable are you with editing Android System files?

Uh, not very. If I have to do that, I'd honestly just keep it the way it is. Unless there's an app that lets me change it,

Also bootlooped with ROM toolbox. I have used a flashable zip with better luck. Well, the only time I tried it, it worked.

I want to change the font on my phone as well but idk what font to replace. I am perfectly comfortable deleting system files and stuff, I know how it all works. Which file dictates the main font? I replaced DroidSans but it looked like nothing changed. And which one is the keyboard font?

I'd rather not risk it because I really don't feel like setting everything all up again. Could do a backup though I guess, it also doesn't have the font I want though.
