You can create custom textview class and use that class whenever you need to use custom fonts.

There's also a library that does this. Very simple to use and set up.

Try this method for all activity. Or you can make this method in you utility class and use in you activity class see bellow.

Method in your utility.java file.

public static void setFont(ViewGroup group, Typeface font) {
    int count = group.getChildCount();
    View v;
    for (int i = 0; i < count; i++) {
        v = group.getChildAt(i);
        if (v instanceof TextView || v instanceof EditText
                || v instanceof Button) {
            ((TextView) v).setTypeface(font);
        } else if (v instanceof ViewGroup)
            setFont((ViewGroup) v, font);
    }
}

And then in your Activity.java file.

ll_Homescreen = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.ll_Homescreen);
FontStyle = Typeface.createFromAsset(getAssets(), path of you font);
utility.setFont(ll_Homescreen, FontStyle);

I hope this will help you Happy Coding.
