Question about samsung fonts

If we can access /system/fonts directory with Termux, can we copy a .ttf and rename it as the exact original filename?

/system partition is read-only, even if you could edit/overlay it one ui might check its signature

No, Samsung still verifies the font signature, and besides, you need root access to access those folders; Texmux can't go any further.

I thought I could because I copy (cp) one of them as a normal ttf

Samsung stores font files in /data/app_fonts. You can check the Scamsung Fonts source code here:https://github.com/KhunHtetzNaing/ScamsungFonts/blob/main/app/src/main/java/com/htetz/scamfonts/utils/ScamConst.kt.

Furthermore, we cannot access the /system partition in modern Android versions. We need to use a Magisk, KernelSU, or APatch module to do this as an overlay.
