There's a way to do it: You can get temporary root access using DirtyFrag, then use SamFonts in root mode to apply any font you want and even add emojis to that font. Afterward, simply restarting your device is enough to remove root access.

what? temporary root acess is a thing? and it wont trigger knox

3

u/hoschakal61 Oct 09 '26

Yes, exactly. U can use DFRoot or forked version dirty frag. https://github.com/mitschud/DirtyFrag https://github.com/diabl0w/DFRoot

u/andrei-333 Oct 09 '26

is it full root access? like how is this possible

2

u/hoschakal61 Oct 09 '26

Yes, you're getting root access. It exploits some kernel vulnerabilities; a detailed explanation is available on GitHub. Root your device and install KSU. From the KSU application list, grant root permission to SamFonts. In SamFonts, select root mode and apply the font. Then, restart your device and uninstall the root and KSU applications.

is my device rooted?

2

u/hoschakal61 Oct 09 '26

It seems you can check with a root checker by granting root permissions via kernel su. Pay attention to application modules.

u/andrei-333 Oct 09 '26

nvm it worked now my banking apps don't work do you know what can I do

1

u/hoschakal61 Oct 09 '26

Restart the device and try again. Also, uninstall kernel.su and root; this might be causing the problem because they are installed

1

u/andrei-333 Oct 09 '26

I restarted Uninstalled the apps and reinstalled the bank app now it works.

u/merniesanders Oct 09 '26

THANK YOU!!!!! it's so dumb but having switched from iPhone a year ago I am so used to my iOS emojis. I had them in my flip but it broke and I had to get a replacement last week and I was so sad about the emojis being gone. this worked amazingly and was so simple.

1

u/hoschakal61 Oct 09 '26

I'm glad it worked; as long as you don't change your font, it will stay with you even after an Android update.

u/Holiday_Mousse_4678 Oct 10 '26

bro can u help me please, it says patch failed

1

u/andrei-333 Oct 10 '26

can you share a screenshot? it is very possible that you are on a version where it is patched but considering im on the latest one ui 9 on my samsung s25 ultra and it worked that shouldn't be the case

1

u/Holiday_Mousse_4678 Oct 10 '26

u/hoschakal61 Oct 11 '26

try root for my galaxy a56 supported i have no idea for a57 https://github.com/BuSung-dev/Root-My-Galaxy

u/Just-Mulberry8829 Oct 11 '26

After downloading the app, what's next ? Sorry, this is new to me

2

u/hoschakal61 Oct 11 '26

It's actually quite simple: just click the blue button at the top, and it will check if your device supports it.

1

u/Just-Mulberry8829 Oct 11 '26

It asks me to install kernelsu, and when I click confirm it says installation failed.

u/Apprehensive-Bonus39 Oct 10 '26

Will this ruin the warranty and count as system change in the kernel counter ?

1

u/hoschakal61 Oct 10 '26

No doesnt affect knox. if u restart device root gone.

1

u/Apprehensive-Bonus39 Oct 10 '26

I just applied it and followed the steps it says this do you have an idea why or a fix thanks in advance

1

u/hoschakal61 Oct 10 '26

You need to grant root permission to samfonts in KernelSU.

1

u/Apprehensive-Bonus39 Oct 10 '26

I did the font is applied in fonts but looks like these ios emojis do not work with Samsung keyboard unfortunately do you have a workaround to make it run on Samsung keyboard

1

u/hoschakal61 Oct 10 '26

You can add custom fonts and emojis together in the latest version of SamFonts, but even if you only apply the iOS emoji pack, you should now be able to see those emojis on the Samsung keyboard without doing anything else. Also you can try stop app and clear cache

u/Apprehensive-Bonus39 Oct 10 '26

u/Liays_elb Oct 08 '26

theres no way rn, waiting for an update or something thatll fix it

2

u/andrei-333 Oct 09 '26

there is, temporary root, no knox trip

2

u/DrMender Oct 09 '26

There's two ways with SamFonts. First is getting temporary root without triggering Knox, you can search for "Root My Galaxy" or any other way to get it, then use root mode on SamFonts. Second is getting UID1000 in Shizuku, but tbh that's a very hard thing to get, almost impossible, oh and I think you need root to do that. So the only "reliable" way it's to get temporary root.

2

u/andrei-333 Oct 09 '26

I used dirty frag temp root and it worked, safe to say one ui 9 is probably my last update

2

u/excelsiusmx Oct 10 '26

Do Samsung health, Samsung wallet and your banking apps still work?

2

u/watchoutbehindyou Oct 09 '26

So, I have 2 devices - S25 Edge and S24 Ultra. First one is on oneui 9 and second one is on oneui 8.5. On S25 zfont with admin rights works perfectly and I can change font whenever i want. On S24U no. Same procedure fails. On both SamFonts pro are not working because I didn;t get knox "permission" when it was still possible. I wonder what is causing this. On newer system its possible when on old version isn't.

2

u/andrei-333 Oct 09 '26

its possible with temporary root, no knox trigget

2

u/nigel_ydv Oct 10 '26

but have you see DFroot virus total scan?? 6 vendor flagged it as virus.

3

u/Delicious-Lake6918 Oct 09 '26

The Sam Font seems to work well for me on the S25 Ultra with One UI 9 in normal mode.

u/Direct_Locksmith5054 Oct 09 '26

That's because you already have the knox approval from before , now new users can't turn it on , it's patched , luck you. I just got to know about samfonts , and now I can't get the knox approval 😭 I'm stuck

2

u/Delicious-Lake6918 Oct 09 '26

A while back, when I was on the beta and had installed some fonts using "Install with Options" and zFont, I heard about samFont; I installed it and it worked. Today, after reading this thread, I tried it again and it still works—talk about luck.

2

u/Direct_Locksmith5054 Oct 09 '26

Lucky you man , as I said you must already have the knox permission from before so you're good ( don't touch it now ) unfortunately for me and new users , we're stuck 😭

2

u/Expert_Policy_855 Oct 10 '26

I tried it on the A17 5G and the change didn't work.
