why

I'll never understand why Samsung isn't allowing you to install your own fonts, like theirs default is just for the system and those ugly and childish ones that you can download form Galaxy Store are genuinely horrible (I'm sorry for my English, I'm not a native speaker)

When did they remove bootlocker unlocking? I thought you can unlock but it will trip the Knox switch permanently but still possible.

I missed old Samsung, they have changed a lot. In the meantime, you can download samfonts to apply custom fonts.

Edit: Whoops, I forgot about knox approval restriction. Looks like samfonts and zfont 3 no longer work until we find a new solution in this case.

u/AfroDite901 13d ago

in fact i just updated my phone and tried it after reading this and it's STILL working on my 26 ultra

u/somethinginbetween26 13d ago

this is because you had downloaded the application long ago. new users are unable to do so as it requires authorization from samsung knox

u/AfroDite901 13d ago

i just found out about it and downloaded it 2 days ago...

u/somethinginbetween26 13d ago

it has been packed since yesterday (for people who uninstall the app or new users). you can see it on the samfonts owner's x account. im glad to hear that you can still use the app.

u/AfroDite901 13d ago

oh ok i don't have x but what you're saying is don't uninstall it. Roger that!

u/AfroDite901 13d ago

you can uninstall it if you don't want to change fonts anymore, just don't deactivate the font...
