Solution 1:

Define font style in resources and use where ever you are creating your elements. Like this:

<stylename="CodeFont"parent="@android:style/TextAppearance.Medium"><itemname="android:layout_width">fill_parent</item><itemname="android:layout_height">wrap_content</item><itemname="android:textColor">#00FF00</item><itemname="android:typeface">monospace</item></style>

I hope you have properly licensed this for distribution, as Helvetica appears to be a commercial font.

and works for all activities

By you manually bundling the font in your app and by manually applying it to each and every TextView (or subclass), yes.
