Default [App] Rom Toolbox

Might be the greatest ROM tool ever created. There is a free version, for cheap, tight wads like me, and a 5 dollar paid version, for you high rollers. You can go into this program and change things, and tweak things. Fonts, boot screens, and tons of other things.

What do you do? What have you used? And how do you do it?

For instance, I am currently on Golden theme from Kane... relax Hicks, I love your theme too... but Kane's font's are stellar, but they mess up the calculator buttons.. so how do you change the font in ROM toolbox. Or I like Hicks' theme but dislike the boot animation, how do you use ROM toolbox to alter the boot animation. Now I know that it is in a different place on our phone vs. other phones, is that going to matter?
Is the Skyrocket the best phone on the market? No. Does Seanz make it a ton better? You damn well better believe.

The boot animation for hicks' theme is located in data/ local. Delete the bootanimation.zip there using the root explorer in Rom Toolbox and the other boot animations will play.

To change the font, in Rom Toolbox, the furthest tab over has options to change the font. Find one you like, tap on it and choose install.

You can preview the boot animations. It will load the file onto your phone but won't change it unless you tell it to. I changed my boot animation right from the ROM Toolbox.
