hello everybody >> How are you ??
I have updated my archos 101 IT to the firmawre 2.4.80 / android froyo 2.2.1
but unfortunately i still have bad arabic support .. which the letters still look not connected ..
for example :
wrong arabic : م ر ح ب ا
right arabic should be : مرحبا
I've contact the archos customer support but they didn't reply my issue
I'm sorry for that
any idea please to fix the letters issue ??
I were advised to make root for the machine but i dont know HOW
then I were advised to go the xda developers >> SO I'm here
And if you don't stop shouting no one will look again into your postings.
If no dev is interested in fixing this, then instead of crying, do it your self or find someone that can do it.

who is shouting .. i don't see anyone shouting except you
and if i don't know how to fix my problem OR I'm busy >> where I should Go ??
If my problem will solve by you or through you .. I don't need it
i feel that i'm the first one on the world post his problem in the dev site
Go away
any idea bro-s
is there anyone have this problem and fix it ??
from where i have to start
Did you ever read anything about Ettikette on the Net (Netiquete)?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netiquette
Using big letters or complete Uppercase is considered Shouting and therefore shows the disrespect of the poster for the Comunity.
There have been more people for the last years all over the Android community ( not only for Archos ) that want this, but not one of the arabic developers has made a solution.
So don't blame others and use the solution that is there atm.
I have known that you are racist , a limited mind and conceited
do you say "etiquette" ??
But your behavior is far from etiquette !!
come to my etiquette school to learn you more about etiquette not just letters or complete Uppercase ....
I've problem >> post it >> you don't have answer SO ShUt Up
and your problem with arabian people solve it in the street not here
look nudy .. your mind is sick and you've to go to the doctor
This post shows who is a racist.
With your behavior i would assume that i probably have more arabic friends than you.
when you have a problem and you don't know how to start with
it's normal to share it with the professional people >>
after that someone who is crazy comes to say " do it yourself " instead of crying
i'm arabian and i proud for that
finally
**** you and **** your sister >> that's the best etiquette i should say it to you
i don't need help now

Problem solved!
But seriously, if you tried using the "search forum" button in the upper-right corner, you may have noticed the multitude of threads that dealt with this exact issue. And--lo and behold!--the most recent one actually has a solution. Now, you'll have to install the custom UrukDroid ROM (or, alternately, any root plus a little bit of elbow grease) to use this fix, but here you go. According to people with firsthand knowledge--that is, people who have an Archos, speak Arabic and have installed the fix--this seems to work. Your mileage may vary. In case you are having trouble following my directions, I have also included a link, because I think it's the polite thing to do.

y - polite it is master luke - but sometimes even this is NOT they way to go imho...
ok - the 1st fzelle post wasn't that helpfull and a hint for rooting would have been nice - but hes right with the shouting-thing...
But at 3rd or 6th i already asked myself what this guy wants... help or flamewar? Not to mention later ones... - some ppl just don't deserve the help... if they dont show the respect to others and the FORUM RULES
None of us here gets money for the "work" we do nor we are professionals - so imho ppl showing so much disrespect don't deserve ANYTHING then IGNORANCE
this thread reminds me of the "LENN DESTROYED MY DEVICE"-Thread
HOPE this thread is done now - or I we have to contact a moderator again...

Whatever puerile prurience you have so crudely cast in my direction is certainly not worth the potential risks to my few surviving brain cells. If you have a problem with the fact that I have patiently given you the utmost of assistance and support in resolving your trivial, pedestrian quibbles then you should take it up with me after proving that you are capable of meaningful, coherent communication; to do this I would only ask that you give me a concise account of the transcendental unity of apperception, how Kant derived its existence, and how it relates to the separation between the noumenal and phenomenal worlds (no cheating). Otherwise, I bid you "Good Day, Sir!"
one by one please
i don't understand anything
Time to close this down - moderation awaited....
I hope u all know the "ignore list"...

I agree, some guy posted "new version is up" compared to the developer actually comes in and posts a nice thread with pictures. Can't believe people want this one deleted.
Before I download this (older beta version was very hard to uninstall)... How is the landscape support? I use my device almost 50% in landscape mode.

It seems to work fine i landscape mode, but S2U2 1.00 has some trouble.
When pressing power button to activate S2U2, it won't activate properly. Pointui overrides S2U2... Also when the phone times-out, and S2U2 activates, I can press power twice to unlock the phone...
Anyone knows how to fix this?
Thanks.

Please delete this thread. It doesn't matter who started what. It is a matter of when it got started first and getting one spot for all inquiries and data.

I think we should priority the real developers thread
This would motivate them to answer our feedback..so don't close this thread
I hope the VGA version will be launched soon..Thanks
Personally, if someone told me to close one of my own ROM's threads or any of my kitchen's threads, and join a thread someone else created about the ROM, I would NOT want to do it. I wouldn't be able to update the Original post with anything. The first post SHOULD be the developer's thread. What they CAN do is merge the threads by adding that other thread into the end of this one.

Point One: I suspect he's only trying to help and so probably doesn't deserve your little rant - what exactly qualifies you to issue orders here?
Point Two: Perhaps the person opening the thread should have followed the rules of the forum and checked for another thread on the same topic (which was right at the top of this thread for most of yesterday evening) before starting a new one.
Importantly, no crime was committed here so let's lighten up a bit.

This thread was aparently started by the developer. My little rant is acceptable. I don't issue orders, and this guy shouldn't either bud, that was exactly my point because that is exactly what HE is trying to do.
CG ain't giving orders..he is requesting the Mods

@Dr J, I totally agree with you.
@htcfanboi, I don't like your website nor this kind of advertising...
huh????
why not????
and i believe DR. J is praising the website not insulting it like you....
honestly if you don't have anything nice to say don't say it at all i spent many hours on that website to help YOU guys out... not for personal amusement

Its not that we dont like it.
I think its the way your trying to advertise it as such.
"They finally opened their website today guys!!!!!!"
You mean yourself?
Seems like your spamming it here and there also. Maybe just chill out and include the updates into your sig etc.
Yeah, he's almost as annoying as Napbree
It's a useful website, chill out.
oops.... sorry about the title i meant I not they... hahhaha embarissing.... i dont get it.... i thought you guys would like it...... and what do you mean updates in my sig????
I'm not even going to visit your site because of your cheap tactics to try to get free advertizing for your site. Please. Don't try to fool us. When you were saying "They" it was not a mistake. everything you have written was an attempt to decieve us. I'm not fooled.
um.... why would i decieve you guys.... i've visited this forum for so long!!! and have made so much for you guys with my htc diamond tf3d themes... some people always think of you guys are so ignorent... i'm just trying to help!!!

Nothing against you personally. But I read through your other thread and the way you had written your posts - You were trying to make it seem that you had nothing to do with it and just stumbled on to it or something. I am sure it may be a very usefull site but I just don't like the way you presented it here (and why two different threads?)
sorry OK i made a mistake... now do you want to hold it on me for ever!!!!!! ok gosh!
give my site a chance i'm sure you'll like it... you dont have to but... i mean it is quite useful

I won't hold it against you forever. Maybe a day. I am glad to see that you are taking ownership. I will probably take a peek at your site. I have checked out your contributions to this site and you are right. You have contribued quite a bit. Your contributions are appreciated here and valued. Keep up the good work with your themes etc... Just remember not to take advantage of everyone here through trickery. If your site is that great, Take pride in it and take ownership. If there is trickery, thefts, Warez in your site than I would understand why you would not take ownership.
I have to admit - When I first saw this it was in your other thread on this. I didn't notice in your opening post *In this thread) that you actually say you worked on this site. I appologize; however, you did still appear very dishonest in the other thread and even in this one a little bit. You should go and edit your posts though so that things are clear with everyone. And don't clutter the forums with multiple threads.
thanks for understanding!!
i'm really excited about this website.... especcailly the mobile optimized version!!!! stay tuned!!
ps. yah i better edit the rest... heheh
And another giznetic-thread..
Spamming the board isn't appreciated!!

Hello fellows !!!!
Here is + QUE PPC trying to give you some tools to enjoy this site even more!!!!
Well… as you see, the forum XDA-Developers becomes even more and more bigger with every year that offers many many information! Making some posting on Off-Topic Forum I reed many people said_-_- “This is in CHAOS!!!!!” this web forum is a MAZE!!!!! And many other things that disappoint me!
But why? Because that kind of threads allows to be more chaotic the forum and so… is not in chaos just are many many… threads give and asking for info… everybody wants to be heard as usual and is natural! Obviously, and is the real truth! This becomes a little hard to find what we are looking for…
I am!!! Te ONE that begins the SIGN INFO THREAD! But nobody wants to follow the info there… (Well, many people already has his info wrote there and thanks for it…) many more people reeds my thread and thinks… OH ****!!!! Its truth…
We can get faster solutions if we all give the entire info of our devices on our signatures… but I can use that mini mini mini space to place my Thoughts! And what!!!!????? Is Fine!!! Many thoughts are good and full of knowledge phrases so… why I wouldn’t wrote my info and restore many time FIRST! Searching… then ASKING then… ANSWERING….
So the question is…. How many time can we spend on answer a question and give it on the right answer? Days???? Weeks?? For some people MINUTES OF REAL PAIN, can be released even more faster.
So we can do more to assist efficiently this kind of problems like a big City on construction becoming a Metropolis!
(I know I’m the one that blame, insult and speak too much, almost then obligates to search or READ… and I offer my apologize to everybody… Im sorry for that and for everything I said wrong… many senior ask me to help them with a guy that makes us mad! And I need sometimes Assist from others [Thanks Zabardast, Ather, Ashasaur and many many more]maybe im not the very right person to said this but I think we can reach a new SEARCH Culture before start a new thread).
So please this time use the search tab right at the upper level bar of this web site. (and so sorry my english is so bad!!! )
...To enable the advanced search tool for XDA developers...
XDA-Developers advanced search plug-in for IE and Firefox
Thanks Noonski
Just click there and accept!!!! (see the picture)

The tutorial!
THE FIRST SEARCH TUTORIAL TO USE THE SEARCH TAB GOOGLE ENHANCED TOOL
(Thanks Admins this is a great IDEA)
First of all… We can have many many doubts but some words can be used by tags… like Downgrade… QVGA… HardSPL… Wizard… “the name of the application”… “.cab” etcetera.
So lets start searching for an application maybe a skin for Audio Manager????
Lets go to the tab!
I type: Audio Manager Skins Diamond QVGA
click on the search button then it goes to GOOGLE and shows answers in XDA and in many other pages other answers.
Obviousli number 1 not wastin time...
number 2... mmm maybe
and the circule number 3 maybe...
Lets try the one that say Kidnamed ALBERT user ok? NUMBER #3 BIGGER(note that arrows points to all answers to XDA developers)
Nice work and he got a zip and a cab! good work but....
I heard (read) somebody's called Poorlyduck that creates really good work... so repeat the steps and perform the search....
I type "Poorlyduck diamond skins" and this is what i got now... I already read before on the hacking and development but never see his thread and now i have a beautyfull skins!!!!
CONTINUES...--->>>>>
<<<<<------continuing
So this is what I have now...
We all thinks that simple explains are for idiots so dont feel like those idiots and please perform a search before starta a new thread maybe your question is already answered... and if you have a question ABOUT SEARCH!!!!! make it her we are all happy to help contributing even more.
Your friend + QUE PPC
Well,although,for some your attitude might be pinching,but I personally have always enjoyed your lightheaded humour and appreciated your way of helping the community.
YUP! no doubt,'SEARCH' is the best option,as the forum has grown enormous over the time and the 'SEARCH' option really sometimes works wonders,only if you enter or put the query correctly.It cud be very beneficial and helpful,I still,after so much extensive reading,utilize it fully,when I have to know something.
Its your Best friend,when you need one
Thats my vote for it,count it!
Read my sigy :-
"Anything you still can't cope with is,therefore,your own problem.
Hey you didn't mention the True Hardcore XDA method!
Install the Plugin in my Signature
You are RIGHT!!!!
Im so sorry Noonski I will update the first post... thanks can I use your sigy????? I remember that the first time you come here I saw your sigy and install that and men I dont kew how to use it remember? hahahaha what a n000000000000b!!!!!
How can I forgot the most important?????
Ciao and Thanks!

I don't think advertising links to other forums is allowed on XDA. I don't like the idea of it either, it's as if you're trying to recruit people away from here.
Whatever you've got up there, I'm sure XDA has it, or better. If not, google sure does.
XDA is the place to be.
Why do we need to register and log in? We don't like doing that. It's inconvenient and possibly a loss of precious time.

Doesn't facebook allow discussion boards? I'm sorry but I am really too lazy to check 2+ places for the same information which I can read about on here.
LOL Alright I think I'll make that a place to share my lesser creativity
by the looks of that forum i didn't know we were going back to the early 2000's style of web design
I'll stick with XDA.. =)
Wow you guys are harsh! lol xda is a relay cool site but im not to keen on the way it looks.
What im trying to do is make one big massive list of links to everything I have found for the x1. And im hoping other members will contribute what I haven't found.
I relay like the black and lime green skin but other members have complained so il make another skin and give the option to change it in the near future.
There are links to xda on my site so advertising works both ways? I hope I havnt upset any of the staff and I apologise if i have.
Iv never done anything like this before I just woke up one morning and decided to make a site lol I havnt a clue what im doing but im a fast learner. Im hopeing the site will work. thanks for your feedback.

Face Book dose allow discussion boards but I was limited to what I could do... links looked messy, and to add links to the page I had to enter them into a text box that was smaller than my x1 screen. It was a pain in the bum. pluss now we have extra features such as a spell checker, the ability to upload pics, signatures and avators and so on...........
Thanks for your contributions to the site Deechan
maybe provide the information in the threads free? I wont register when i dont know whats in there
maybe downloads only for members but viewing of threads should be free
The site is 100% totally FREE to use I'm not making any M0nny from this whatsoever. There are no downloads on the site I'm just helping people find where the downloads are.
You must become a member to view the forums coz I want site users to GIVE and take. Use our useful links and submit links for others to use
Post Removed The games that were here can still be found on the proboards site
I would remove that
These are Warez.
But my idea was to keep the threads free for all.... to read
and if someone try to follow a link he have to register...
would be more teasing than this "crappy" (sry ) design
Sorry what are Warez? crappy design? I like the skin lol. But there are more than a few that dont. I intend to make an alternative skin when im next off work.
To be honest, I think the idea of a whole board dedicated to the Xperia is a nice idea. XDA is great, dont get me wrong, but it's just not quite as specialized. I've seen topics and questions that get replies like "Oh, I had that problem on my HTC diamond" or "I did this on my other smart phone". So I suppose it's not always relevant or helpful, despite good intentions.
Give the guy a break, eh? I'm sure none of you all would find it very pleasant if you posted something you thought was interesting or helpful, and a bunch of people replied with nasty comments or called it spam.
On here are about as clear as mud.
I can say thanks for the hard work you guys put in but you really need to stop assuming that everyone is programing at degree level.
After 4 broken mouse a broken cup and 4 sleepless nights I'm giving up trying to root the wildfire..

That's funny I followed them twice with no complications at all and I knew nothing about Android and have basic computer skills, don't blame the guides here for your own incompetence. Those guides have helped hundreds/thousands of people to gain root, if you're having problems why not ask like everyone else does, though I doubt you'll get much help now.

But seriously, if you just use a third party tool like Revolutonary, it's as easy as pie.
Download tool->plugin phone->install drivers (if necesary)->run tool->follow simple onscreen instructions

I just think folk could be a bit clearer at times and then when your not having success further in the post someone chimes in with another 'even easier' solution lol, well so they say so your away again and suprise it doesn't work or something isn't clear so you go back and aw well the loop continues until you litteraly break!
I give up the phones old hat now anyway!
Relax A Minute!
@Tevion74
I can understand where you are coming from, before I bought my Wildfire I had never even used any PC Linux Distros (distributions) and had a lot of reading up to do, but the main thing I had to remember is this:
KEEP CALM AND CARRY ON LEARNING
whenever I had a problem rooting or now when I am trying to do something with my wildfire - I will not just dive straight in, research what you want to know IN DETAIL
and then if I am still in doubt, I will ask one of the great devs on here, such as Scratch0805, Heavy_Metal_Man, Sympnotic and Arco68 and Hacktrix2006 - but there as so many that I can not name all the people that have helped our friend Willy Wildfire progress to where its at!
My point is, dont just try and do it if you can't, RESEARCH, and if need be - ask for help.
There is always people on XDA willing to give help to those that ask and don't tant.
Dev? Me? Far from it mate, I have no knowledge of Linux based systems at all, well except what I've learnt here, it has all come from reading guides on xda.
I struggle to understand when erwinp,sympnotic start talking in the cm9 thread.
I think of myself more an advanced user who's not afraid to have a go.
To the op if you post your problem in the thread of the guide your trying to follow we'll try to help you and figure out where your going wrong.

You just need to understand that this is a forum. If a member of a forum has a problem, he can post about it and other members can help him solve it. That's how forums work
I'm 100% sure if you posted about your issue in the relevant thread, you would've gotten a solution in 2 hours, if not less.

agreed. im sorry if my reply seems harsh (my hasty responses can be) it just frustrates me when people come with grievances and seem to have not asked for help on the matter. if you had asked for help, read the threads and still couldnt get the help you wanted then i would understand. (we have all been there before). our members try there best when righting guides to make them as user friendly as possible. we all need to start somewhere and alot of us come here with little or no knowledge of linux or android. if we can do it you can do it. these things just take time and paitence.

Look ya muppet, if you read the guides as carefully as you read my posts I'm not surprised you can't get root. Me and you both seem to have a bit of an attitude so let's just leave it.
Yes we kind of clashed the first couple of posts I get that and offer my apologies, it just p's me off when people throw a fit and blame others because its themselves that can't follow a simple step by step guide correctly. This forum is what it is because of people asking questions and others answering them. I'm offering to help you as that's why we're here and I know other people will too so just chill out, Buy yourself a new mug then have a cuppa tea n we'll try to start again and get you up n running!

I purchased my wildfire in South Africa and to gain root i couldnt use the regular way, i researched day and night, by the way this is my first android phone, i knew nothing what so ever about what i was doing but because i just applied myself into the task, the day i decided to finally root, it took me less than an hour. but now im fairly competent in fixing this and that on a rom, so shoot your questions, we will answer..........this is XDA, we can do anything.
Ok thread cleaned and closed.
To make things clear here.
XDA is a developer forum and not everyone's personal tech support.
Mostly everyone in here tries and reads the guides and the wealth of information included for their own benefit.
If you dont like the current guides then by all means make your own and offer something back to the community.
