I need to use certain font for my entire application. I have .ttf file for the same. Is it possible to set this as default font, at application start up and then use it else

Tom's solution works great, but only works with TextView and EditText.

If you want to cover most of the views (RadioGroup, TextView, Checkbox...), I created a method doing that :

protected void changeChildrenFont(ViewGroup v, Typeface font){
    for(int i = 0; i < v.getChildCount(); i++){

        // For the ViewGroup, we'll have to use recursivity
        if(v.getChildAt(i) instanceof ViewGroup){
            changeChildrenFont((ViewGroup) v.getChildAt(i), font);
        }
        else{
            try {
                Object[] nullArgs = null;
                //Test wether setTypeface and getTypeface methods exists
                Method methodTypeFace = v.getChildAt(i).getClass().getMethod("setTypeface", new Class[] {Typeface.class, Integer.TYPE});
                //With getTypefaca we'll get back the style (Bold, Italic...) set in XML
                Method methodGetTypeFace = v.getChildAt(i).getClass().getMethod("getTypeface", new Class[] {});
                Typeface typeFace = ((Typeface)methodGetTypeFace.invoke(v.getChildAt(i), nullArgs));
                //Invoke the method and apply the new font with the defined style to the view if the method exists (textview,...)
                methodTypeFace.invoke(v.getChildAt(i), new Object[] {font, typeFace == null ? 0 : typeFace.getStyle()});
            }
            //Will catch the view with no such methods (listview...)
            catch (Exception e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
        }
    }
}

This method will get back the style of the view set in XML (bold, italic...) and apply them if they exists.

For the ListView, I always create an adapter, and I set the font inside getView.
