  • This CAB Installer tweak will SKIN your system font into a Sony Ericsson-look alike font ("Sony Sketch" font)
  • Based on Crazylilboy's fonts tutorial
  • Fully uninstallable (tested)
  • As always, feel free to share/cook/copy/edit/modify/etc [as long as authory is acknowledged, of course]
  • 01 APR 09 added a bigger 1.2x font version, resized by zenkinz

it doesnt work. i mean the bigger font. the underlying appears to be the font file itself.

I am working on it

There's not much activity in this forum... Guess this font is giving you a hard time! Too bad I only know how to flash a ROM and install some cabs...

Just wanted to let you know that I appreciate your work so far. Ít's just a little too small, but I'm already getting used to it...

I think that this font suits the new 6.5 "today" screen well!
Current: Samsung Galaxy Nexus, Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7

This font looks better on a screenshot than on my device.
Now, I want my Tahoma back. Can anyone point to cab with standard Tahoma font so I can replace it?

According to the first post you can uninstall the SEX1 font...

Of course this appears on the installed programs list and you can uninstall it but this won't change system font back. Just because Tahoma font was overwritten and needs to be overwritten again.
