Amen! Font size is a joke. You need a magnifying glass to read a text you are sending. I'm looking for options too before I return.

There should be options in all the apps (Gmail, Email, Browser, Messages, etc) to make the font bigger. Most all apps have this option.

Agree the font is minimalistic for this vibrant large screen...we need a global setting! At it some apps can be enlarged...

Spare Parts is found on the marketplace. It is free. There are two versions, doesn't matter which you get.

Also, in the text messaging app, you can pinch to zoom to get smaller or larger text. Not sure if stock can do this as I run Insert Coin.

The pinch to zoom in text is a 3.5 feature, so regardless of Rom, as long as its 3.5 based

You can also increase the lcd density in the build.prop This will make everything a bigger. I'm currently using 255 instead of 240.
