Root [TMobile] root issues

So i rooted my f6 using the method here under all things root, alternative method. After i rooted i installed a font pack from playstore thats for rooted phones. Well the font pack was supposed to effect a system wide font change but it didnt. The only place that was affected was partially in my browser. I decided to uninstall it and its still there. I also tried to un root, no change. Next i tried factory reset. No change. I downloaded Firefox as well as next browser and the font is still there on the alternative browsers. Help! How can i get that flippen font out? Ps i have a screen shot of it but dont know how to upload it here
 
Hi jimbojimshorts,

Do you recall which exact font pack you installed? Most of the good ones (that I've played with, at least) will include an option inside the app to uninstall the fonts. Those applications work by copying files onto the normally-read-only /system partition; that is why just uninstalling the application didn't do it, and also why a factory reset didn't resolve it (since /system doesn't get wiped during the reset).

To remove the offending font, you'll need to get root again access again. It's been a while since I used it last, but I want to say that JRummy's Font Installer app includes an option to uninstall fonts, even those that weren't installed by that app.

Good luck! :thumbup:
 
The font pack i used was the love font by rooted tools for you. I fixed my problem by re rooting then i used the font installer you suggested. I was able to locate and identify the culprit font but unable to delete it for some reason. So i just downloaded a root explorer and used that to delete it. Thanks for your help. And fyi as of yet no response from the fonts developer
