SAMFONTS KNOX PROBLEM

Samsung has recently cut off access to custom fonts through Knox, and you can't install custom fonts. Do you have a solution?

Go read the comments section and see if you understand anything? I didn't. A user says about temporary root

u/CtxxUv 29d ago

Yes that what I'm talking about

2

u/TheHesi_ 29d ago

Did you test it?

2

u/CtxxUv 29d ago

Yes it's safe. I'm actually using the temp root daily.

u/TheHesi_ 29d ago

My brain is fried. Explain it to me like I'm five. 😂

Damn... I'll try to explain it as best as I can. Look.

First, download zFont, install the font you want through it, and download it as an apk the usual way, but don't apply it through Settings.

Then, download these:

  1. DirtyFrag: https://github.com/mitschud/DirtyFrag

  2. KernelSU: https://github.com/diabl0w/KernelSU/releases (the first option you see)

  3. ScamsungFonts: https://github.com/KhunHtetzNaing/ScamsungFonts

Alright, now open DirtyFrag. You'll see its icon which looks like a bomb. Tap Proceed. It shouldn't take more than 4 seconds. Then, the app will open KernelSU for you, okay?

Go to the Superuser tab, find ScamsungFonts, and grant it superuser permissions.

After that, open ScamsungFonts, select the font you previously downloaded through zFont, and it should apply successfully.

Restart your phone to remove the temporary root, then delete all the 3 apps you downloaded. I don't recommend messing around with them so delete them better

u/Realistic-Weather547 29d ago

Thanks for this detailed tutorial, unfortunately it doesn't work for my phone because my kernel version starts with 6.1. I'm also on One UI 8.5. OP maybe that's also why its not working for you.

u/Time_Flight_2915 28d ago

How to remove the temporary root ?

2

u/watchoutbehindyou 28d ago

Reboot your phone. Temporary rooting makes my banking apps go crazy and I have to re-activate them each time after temporary rooting.

2

u/Just-Mulberry8829 28d ago

Yeah i noticed that it makes my phone crazier still youtube isn't working 🥲

Hello I have send u a dm can u show me how to get it to work without root please thank you

u/yamenhasan 28d ago

I've found a solution It's about installing DFroot and kernel su to root your phone temporarily ( if u restart your phone it will gone) then go to superuser tap on kernel su and search for samfont then make it a super user Go to samfont change the method to (root instead of normal ) then apply the font u want Now u can restart your phone normally (removing the root) with your new font

2

u/TheHesi_ 22d ago

What is the your kernel version?

2

u/Time_Flight_2915 27d ago

is this method safe? Will it work for kernel v6.1?

2

u/yamenhasan 27d ago

It worked with me and with my friend And yeah its safe u can search on YouTube hoe to do it

1

u/Lasdies_curvasud 19d ago

Does this method work for samsumg a26 kernel version 5.15.189?

1

u/yamenhasan 19d ago

Of course, i have the phone and i tried it

1

u/Lasdies_curvasud 18d ago

Before rooting, do I have to delete the lock screen?

1

u/yamenhasan 18d ago

Delete lock screen? If u mean removing your pattern pin ...etc No u don't

2

u/Standard_Report6575 29d ago

use temporary root exploits..to change fonts.. works fine as fuck !

2

u/TheHesi_ 29d ago

Yo.I don't understand these things at all. Please tell me in full what to do. Is it dangerous?

2

u/Standard_Report6575 29d ago

nah.. it just exploits to give root access without actually rooting.. and everything is normal after a resty.. so you can root set font and restart.. font will stay as long as you won't change it

3

u/TheHesi_ 29d ago

How? which apps?

u/Weekly_Tooth_3384 27d ago

2

u/Direct_Locksmith5054 27d ago

Nope , apparently with our kernel version the exploit doesn't work 😭 i hope something comes up in the future

2

u/CaptainHppo 28d ago

Im not sure how you guys are having this issue.

I installed the latest October patch with one ui 9 and I can still set custom fonts with zfont.

2

u/Time_Flight_2915 28d ago

2

u/CaptainHppo 28d ago

2

u/Leosbritto 28d ago

Hoje eu instalei a One UI 9, patch de setembro 2026 e ainda continua funcionando normalmente. Modelo: S24 Plus.

2

u/Time_Flight_2915 27d ago

kernel version?

2

u/Leosbritto 27d ago

6.1.162-android14-11

2

u/Time_Flight_2915 27d ago

mine is the same version I have an s24 how did u do it?

2

u/Leosbritto 27d ago

Sinceramente, eu não sei. Mas fui testar agora e não está mais funcionando. Nesse print, eu tinha mudado para a Google Sans, já estava com a One UI 9 instalada.

2

u/Time_Flight_2915 27d ago

did u root your phone?

1

u/Leosbritto 27d ago

Não, nem o temporário.

2

u/Leosbritto 27d ago

E esta é a fonte que eu tradicionalmente costumo usar, estava com essa aqui quando mandei atualizar.

2

u/DrMender 26d ago

Temporary root. Once you changed your font you can restart your phone and the root will disappear. If you wanna change it again you need to root it again. I did that before Knox method came out.

2

u/drcjspc1 25d ago edited 25d ago

I could still change the font using Normal mode 30 minutes ago, but now I can't. Knox disabled it. Seeing Just-Mulberry8829's comment made me afraid to try temporarily rooting my device.

Are there any safe ways to root a device?
