boot loop after font installer app

[redheadplantguy]

please help, someone.
I'm stuck in a boot loop after using font installer. I have rooted JB.
Just took back a tablet today to best buy for same thing. I thought tablet was bad. Apparently, it's "font installer" app. Used it before on rooted ICS, no problem. Now, my 14 hour old infinity is looping. Please help.
Soft brick recover method might be working this time, but the "Font Installer" app is causing a lot of problems. Probably best to stay away from it.

Hey Friend,

I am Master Ramy, part of the Support Team for Jrummy Apps Inc, the company behind Rom Toolbox Pro and Font Installer.

What font did you attempt to install?

If your font changes are causing bootloops, chances are that you are overwriting the wrong fonts. Please open the Font Installer and click Menu > Preferences > Select Fonts.

If you’re running Android 4.0 ICS, or 4.1 Jellybean, make sure Roboto-regular.ttf is selected
If you’re running Android 3.X or earlier, make sure DroidSans.ttf is selected
If you’re running MIUI, make sure Arial.ttf is selected

Before attempting any customization, we recommend that users have a recent nandroid backup in case anything goes wrong. There are always ways to fix these issues, there should be no need to return your device.

Finally, I strongly encourage you to contact us with any questions or when you run into any problems, so that we can help you out Feel free to post our responses to the XDA community if needed.

Thanks!

Wrong permission

I had the similar issue when I tried to RESTORE fonts with "Font Installer". It seems that font installer was not setting proper permissions of font files after restore.

I connected my device in recovery mode and chown'ed the font files back to root:root (instead of system:sdcard_r) through shell and it solved the issue.
