To change Android Default Font Size

Can anyone please tell me where exactly the Default Text Font size is set in the android framework.When I change the font size using Spare Parts package and reboot my android device, the font size sets to Normal style by default.But I want it to be Extremely Large by default.

Thanks, Riyaz

According to http://recombu.com/mobile/article/changing-font-size_M18292.html there is no native option for that, up to Android 3.0.

You have to install some third party app. "Big Font" appears to be a popular one.

If you just want to set font size for the whole phone. Try going to

Settings (Phone) > Accessibility.

Choose Large Text there.

NOTE: I am assuming you just want the font for the phone and not via an app.

You can change font size, style etc in your application, but not for whole device. To do that i guess you need to root your phone and provide custom fonts with specified font size in it.

You can't change a default font size. You can define a theme, and define a font size in your theme. You can read about defining themes and styles in the android developer reference documentation.
