How to help translate standard Android apps?

Hello!
I want to help out translating the standard android apps, and was wondering if anybody knew how? Do I need to download the entire source and edit the strings.xml file for each application or is there another way?
Thanks.

Change Android 2.3 AS you want

Hello every body,
the good new today i see the Android 2.3 Gingerbread Released!
the bad news somebody said this release not support for arabic
This is what we go through I and thousands of people in the Middle East
But when I check Google for developers I found some ways to play Arabic with a few moments
in this class we can found text proprieties :
Bidi Class
we need to set Constants something like this:
##
(int) DIRECTION_DEFAULT_RIGHT_TO_LEFT = 1
## Indicates whether the text is from right to left, that is, both the base direction and the text direction is from right to left.
isRightToLeft()
We can change Unicode from this file:
Character.UnicodeBlock
The Question how change this constant and vaules ??!!
the google android found solution for you "API Levels"
"I THINK "
we can update the constant via The AndroidManifest.xml File
change the constant and send to system via this XML file
I want some help from the developers here :
Q-1 : how to add this value correctly into AndroidManifest.xml
Q-2: how to attach the AndroidManifest.xml into system to be active
i'm looking in many site and someone said we can embede the file with an apk APP with this tool android-apktool
this is all I know, please we need your help

Hi, Guys
Wrote a Calibre Offline Searcher Application for Simple Nook Touch (Glowlight).
Because I am new to the forums as user I can not create links so to get the source code go to github and search for CalibreOfflineSearcher and the android7 branch.
The app is in Hungarian and I wrote it with limited Android programming knowledge. You are all welcome to improve it.
I do not know how to attach apk yet, and was unable to create DevDB thread too...
