Hello
First of all sorry for my bad English!
it's a big problem that Android devices cannot show arabic/persian letters!
but developers has fixed this problems on some devices! (Legend/Nexus One/Xperia X10 and ...) and Samsung Devices support this languages officaily!
Now, What's the fix for Wildfire!?
i, my self has tried some ways, i know it is depended on two things:
1. Font (totally Fixed, No Problem!)
2. lip (here is my problem!)
i have copied good fonts to Rom files (make/edit a zip) and then flash my cooked rom with my favorite font, now my device can show arabic/perisan letters BUT separately!
i did the same way (copy file to rom zip and then flash!) with lib files, letters was good but Gallery and Browser and some other apps did'n work (Force Close!)
there is 3 lib file that they are related to this problem:
libskia.so
libskiagl.so
libwebcore.so
Important: In CM rom everything is OK! Persian/Arabic Rom are showing true!
My Another Problem: Because of this problem i cannot test some different lib files to rich to good result: When i want to replace lib file in Root Explorer, i see an error: "not enough space" so i forced to copy my lib files to a zip file (rom) and flash it to test! it's so CRAZY! What's the solution?!
Point: there is a Official Arabic HTC Rom for Legend and i know it has cooked by developers for Hero, is here anyone to see them and try to cook one rom for Wildfire!?
thanks so much and
keep your nice work!
I did find a Arabic rom from a Arabic forum which it supports Persian letters so well and has English menus and a fantastic bilingual (English/Persian) keyboard, now I'm using that!

Could you please paste here the link to download that rom (arabic/persian for wildfire) ? I'm not iranian so that I could not read parsi.
CM
But the browser in CM doesn't support arabic
the letters appears not connected!
Java Util class for Farsi/Arabic letters for Android
I have created a Util class that reshapes the arabic,persian, farsi, dari letters to correct glyphs. Find more at:
ahmad-iv.blogspot
Edit:
I cannot post a link right now...
Its easier to flash to CM7 or use Arabic Eclair rom. There is also custom roms that supports Parsi/Arabic languages.

Hi all,
This post is about getting the orginal WWE Asia HTC HD2's font into Artermis ROM.
1) Install the attached cab
2) Soft reset
Note 1: I only tested in fresh ROM environment, which is V10,V11
Note 2: These files are taken from RUU_Leo_hTC_Asia_WWE_1.66.707.1_Radio_Signed_15.30.50.07U_2.06.51.07_Ship.exe
One step closer to stock ROM "Philosophy"

Hi all,
This post is about getting the orginal WWE Asia HTC HD2's font into Artermis ROM.
I have tried various cabs before like ricky, RobRedbeard- LIA, sunglobe etc... and i have no idea what are the cabs actually doing. some of them even replaced the original wince.nls, create some junk reg keys, make chinese font in some app overlapping...
Here is the safer technique to get chinese font support without messing around with the system files and registry.
1) Download the attached zip file and extract to your storage card
2) Copy UCSH00B-gray.ttf to \windows
3) Import this registry file, SystemLink.reg
4) Soft reset

looking forward to your findings mate. cheers
temporary solution
I just tested with artermis v10 with the following
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=6295918#post6295918
steps
1) download the attachment then extract all the files to a temp folder on your desktop
2) go files folder, copy & paste EzInputSettings.exe.0804.mui then rename the new file to EzInputSettings.exe.0409.mui
3) copy all the dll files from those folder name end with .ddl to parent folder (../files). you can skip HTCSipSrvc.dll
4) now go to your device, change SIP to other. change home to titanium
5) go to /windows folder and rename those dll file with same name you modified on your desktop temp folder to xxxx.dll.old( total is 11 files)
6) copy the temp folder on your desktop to your HD2
7) use total commander to move all the files inside files folder to /windows, replace all the dll & files (must make sure no overwrite error)
8) import app.reg
9) soft reset
Finally stock rom chinese support in WWE rom
Now just waiting for a kind soul to help to convert this into cab
UPDATE: Only pinyin and stroke is working...
ABOVE SOLUTION IS UNSUPPORTED NOW

i replaced the wince.nls, but nothing happened. i still dont get the 5 chinese regions in regional settings. also, can you check if your first post method works for google maps 4.1? in google maps, under settings, speech language, there is an option for mandarin. all i get are square boxes.. it should write chinese language, in mandarin of course. any fix for this?

Maybe try the following:
- rename the existing wince.nls to wince.nls.old then copy the new one.
- inside your registry... remove this key [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\FontLink\SystemLink] then import the reg file from 1st post, if everything ok, only 5 entries will be recreated as following
"HelveticaNeue LT 35 Thin"="\\windows\\UCSH00B-gray.ttf,AR CrystalHeiU20 Bold(gray);\\windows\\tahoma.ttf,Tahoma"
"Helvetica Neue OTS"="\\windows\\UCSH00B-gray.ttf,AR CrystalHeiU20 Bold(gray);\\windows\\tahoma.ttf,Tahoma"
"Courier New"="\\windows\\UCSH00B-gray.ttf,AR CrystalHeiU20 Bold(gray)"
"Tahoma"="\\windows\\UCSH00B-gray.ttf,AR CrystalHeiU20 Bold(gray)"
"AR CrystalHeiU20 Bold(gray)"="\\windows\\tahoma.ttf,Tahoma"
remember to soft reset ... then enjoy the new font

replacing the wince.nls directly doesn't work. You need to use it with reloadnls.exe which will have to be in the startup folder. do a search for it and you will find your answers. I used to write a thread for this as well, so you can try to search for it.

Hi all,
I'm trying to compile Android with full Hebrew support (inc. menus)

Waiting ... request from the kind
I'm not sure what did you mean by "language files". Before the expert -- capychimp, answer your question, you might want to try the followings:
1. go grab a copy of Rogers Magic stock 2.1 rom with root.
2. go grab a copy of RCMagic v2.0
3. use kitchen to create a working directory based on stock 2.1 rom
4. deodex all apk files
5. extract RCMagic v2.0
6. compare any apk file in /system/app/ or /system/framework/ (one from kitchen's working directory and another from RCMagic v2.0)
7. let's assume that A.apk from kitchen is renamed as stock-A.apk and A.apk from RCMagic is rename as RC-A.apk
8. use apktool to decode both apk files
9. after decoding, check out stock-A/res/values* and RC-A/res/values*. As far as I know, values/* are for English and, take zh_TW (Traditional Chinese) as an example, values-zh-rTW/* are for Traditional Chinese.
So, I guess you can create a values-XXXX for your language code and put whatever needed into values-XXXX/*

to make it easier, you have 84 apks you need to decode to make a full sense rom multilanguage
Google has some good resources on this topic. I can't find them right now but I am finding some interesting stuff.
http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/resources/localization.html
http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/web/localizing-android-apps-draft
well thats the apks thats the same for all roms, but how to activate them on aosp no idea, cause in sense you do it in CID/default.xml
I have an Hebrew apk, I unpacked it using apktool.
I got the Hebrew xml file, so I think I'm set, but to translate 84 apk's to make a full Hebrew Android, WOW that's alot !!!
I've attached a flashable ZIP with apk's in Hebrew (I didn't do it).
Is this the only whey to translate Android, or is there a EZer way to do it ?
p.s. thanks for the reply and help...
i am working on a script so you can just unpack a rom, and by menu select to make it ml
well i see you have some of it, but still alot to go
and you would need the rtl support in framework.jar also
In Froyo with a little help from a guide I get RTL in Internet and SMS.
So I think I have full RTL...
Tell me which files do I need to translate and we will work together on this...
O.K, I have the .xml files that I need to translate.
I know there is a program for translating file.po (value on one side and translation on the other side)
But is there a program like that for file.xml ?

Hello everyone,
I am used to adding Arabic to my builds whenever I cook a new rom, but I just noticed that when I cook with 28244 (Also tried 240 and 238) and Whatever I do the Arabic does not show in Manila.
I Replaced wince.nls with the Arabic one and did not work, Used Complex script from another build, Copied over with the Arabic enabled fonts, ...etc.
I Even installed (After booting) the Arabic enabler cab that I use with any other rom to no avail.
I tried everything I know of and it does not work with 28244.
If any one have any ideas please help.
Hallo,
can u read and write arabic? for example in SMS?
WBR
Siemens Lover
Nope, It is problematic.
When I can read in Windows and not manila I can reinstall Tohama Font but in this Rom I can't achieve any Arabic Reading
A nice bump in hope for ideas.
search for bold font issues repair here in XDA, apply the changes and yr arabic will be fine in manila and phone canvas too.
COM2 had no issues with arabic, while bottom menus released lately have these problems.
Solved.

i had the exact same problem with all SQUASHED builds !!
these ROMS use a program called squashfs to compress the system file to fit on 512 MB ROM EU LEO
all Desire HD builds are huge and take a lot of space so that is why the use this compression method !! or you wouldn't even have Desire HD builds on 512 EU LEO
now that you know what Squashfs is !!
it time you know the side effects !!
it makes the Squashed part of the system READ ONLY !!
so what that means is that you can't edit, modify or delete any of the files inside it !!
and to get Arabic support you have to modify some of "LIB" files inside the system partition ..
now if you want to do this you have to use linux to unpack the Squashed.sqsh and modify it with Arabic support and then resquash it ..
i already asked here on the forums and got many answers but none of them worked for me .. you can check my question thread here
best of luck to you

Hello.
I tried the latest english MIUI ROM for Defy (2.4.20) and I really liked it. The problem is that my girlfriend does't know a word of english and the latest version has not been translated to her native language, french.
The last version that MIUI France translated was 2.3.30. I know there aren't many differences between 2.4.20 and 2.3.30. However, 2.4.20 is the very last MIUI ROM for Defy, so I think it's a shame they don't want to translate it. Besides, if there are so few differences between these versions, it should not be so hard to update the string files.
Basically, what I want to do at the moment, is to take the translated string files from 2.3.30 and put them into 2.4.20. If some strings are missing I may try to update them later on.
If I understood correctly, I need to transfer the string files of every app from the french ROM to the english one with apktool, but I can't find a way to extract the files from the miui ROMs (which is strange since they are zip files). My best guess is that I'm missing a step.
So my question is the following: is there a way do to it from a windows computer and what is it?
Quick google'ing gave me this:
http://www.miui-au.com/add-ons/apktool/
Shouldn't be so hard to find on the net.
Maybe you should try morelocale 2 from the playstore
