Might help to tell us which apps you've tried that don't work so we don't offer redundant suggestions, but have you tried rom toolbox?

I'll have to try that now!
All romtool box changes for fonts is: widgets, all of the setting names as well as each individual setting and their options, the slide down date, battery percentage, incoming text names/content (I use textra so the message pops up), the lockcreen time and date as well as the carrier name, firefox/web browser, keyboard text, some of Google Now's card text, as far as in-app text not really any besides browser, Contacts app, the contact names are changed according to the font you picked, recents tab for calls is changed, the keypad letters under the numbers are changed too. That's all I saw that is changed, everything else is stock font.
Hope that list is helpful! and hopes someone can find a different app that changes every single thing!

I haven't used it in a long time, but my past experience was that it changed the font everywhere... Maybe things are different now. :/

Some aren't compatible with 5.0 but the Dev will eventually update them. Please be sure to make a backup before flashing...
