Installing fonts without root? - Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers

Can I install fonts on my new note 9 without rooting it? I was not going to root but this would be my only real reason to. I tried ifont app but no dice.

Its seems so far only fonts bought or downloaded off the galaxy apps store. I tried to download some free ones off of Google play. They downloaded fine but would not work. I have only been able to get the Samsung fonts to work.

I downloaded the fonts from dza labs, but I don't know how to install the ttf fonts?

Get Substratum and then Wings fonts. I have over 1300 fonts. No root needed.

If your N96OU is a US variant with the snapdragon chip, rooting isn't an option. The international exynos version can be rooted for now.

I do the option without Substratum and just install the apks. Been using Wings Fonts since my S8+ and it's awesome.

I followed the directions on wings fonts and they showed up in the fonts section but when I went to install the new font of my choosing, it came up with an error & said it wasn't supported. Then it asked if I wanted to uninstall that font and it unistalled the entire font package...
How did you make it work?

Still @ a loss.
I installed exactly (AFAIK) the way it describes in the post and this is the result.
If I hit ok, it unistalled the apk. If I hit cancel, it still will not allow me to install the chosen font. I've tried about 30 @ this point, without success.

Where is Snapchat micro

I have the snapchat micro apk but when I side load it and try to run it all it says is "please connect to your smartphone." so they must have had problems with it or something. I can upload it if you really want it.
Oops! Spoke too soon! Yes, it installs and loads from the play store, but the picture is sideways. Unless you're willing to tilt your arm at an extremely unnatural angle, it isn't a great solution lol

thank you very much.
Ive just realised, this wont work. It has to be installed through the gear manager so that the notifications get pushed through.....
No it doesn't I side loaded it before the 4.3 for thw note 2 from a note 3 and it worked for a while but once they took it off the market it stopped working I think I has to do with the version of snapchat being used.

Issue with Root Access on M Preview 2

I have just installed Developer M Preview 2 on my Nexus 6 and I have flashed the beta SuperSU, however, when I try and change system files via ESFE or titanium backup I get denied or nothing happens. Also, when checking ESFE for writable system, it says no. When checking superSU app it shows that my apps have superSU access and grant. Also, when using layers manager app and when I try to install the layers it doesn't work. That app has been granted root.
Can anyone attempt to help me?
Thanks
Busybox.... Did you install it?

If that's not the issue, it is likely the kernel. You will need an M preview custom Kernel.

When will Verizon get one UI update?

I've got friends with Sprint and they all have gotten the update. From what I've read we were supposed to get it early February. Does anyone have any ideas?

Would I have to be rooted and is it a beta build your talking about or an actual final release? I'm not stranger to rooting, I used to root and flash all the time but haven't in a couple years because with themes and everything nowadays I don't really see the need to anymore.
No root necessary and it's a final build.

Worked like a charm thank you very much!!!!
I find it funny that the update from /sdcard is pretty damn useless for the 512GB version of the 9. It's not mounted as /sdcard/ so adb is the only option.
Edit: Unless I want to waste time and put an sdcard in JUST for the update. Nah.

I don't think this works if the sdcard is encrypted. Can anyone confirm this?

But ADB worked just fine.

Just signed up as well Attaching some screenshots. Downloading right now, and will take screenshots after installed.
EDIT: Just a head's up, that I had a bootloop after installing. Not sure why as I disabled all Substratum overlays. Also was using Goodlock, and wonder if that could have messed up something. Be sure to backup your stuff just in case
If it is possible for any of you who have access to this to create a zip for others, including myself, to use. It would be greatly appreciated.

Will this work for an At&t branded Note 9 that is unlocked and running on T-Mobile? I can't seem to find anything in the Members app.
Worked on my sprint 960u(now shows as 960U1). running the unlocked U1 firmware XAA region.
Just had to check for updates twice.
You have to sign up through the Samsung members app first. Some have reported clearing app data fixes the beta invitation banner not showing.
AFAIK This is for unlocked U1 devices only.
None of the samsung good lock, navbar apps are working though in the 10 beta.

If you goto settings>about phone and your model number is anything other than SM-N960U1
Then I doubt it will work.
Pretty sure I'm going back to 9 today. The absence of goodlock and no dark mode in messages app is killing me.
Clearing my theme enabled systemwide dark mode
That works with messages.
Still feel like the additional features don't make up for the loss of goodlock and some of its modules.
I got it installed. Think it's pretty nice so far. Substratum doesn't work but #hex installer still does since it's been updated to one UI 2.0. so most the apps I like to theme are still able to. Over all for a first beta it's smooth. Few tweaks had to be hunted down in settings but got figured out. Over all I'm pretty happy. Just waiting for the goodlock apps to be updated.

If you're registered for the beta and not getting it, its probably because you updated to the December security patch (N960U1UES3CSK1) before you successfully registered for the beta. Odin back to the November security patch (N960U1UES3CSJ1) check for a system update and you'll get the beta (N960U1UEU3ZSL2) update. Worked for me.
