On the magic, is there a T9 keyboard input?
Oh yes... but not in all firmware, as far as i know... but it's not a problem to install it

you can do that from the marketplace, right?
Smething can be found in the market but not for all languages.
Did you find a keyboard in english on the market? I'd be interested in knowing the name of it so I can download. I've got "better keyboard" but it's not t9... but it IS better than the stock android one.
Another question: Is there a hardware keyboard that can be used with this phone?
ie, a bluetooth keyboard? (needs HID support) - possibly from another rom?
or a mini usb keyboard - needs correct drivers I s'pose.
Any ideas would be helpful. Thanks!

Thanks very much! I was actually installing this while I was waiting for someone to help me with a reply. It's a very good alternative actually. Much appreciated!
btw... do you know if the magic is compatible with a bluetooth keyboard?
Hi,
I really need an Arabic support to my milestone 2 device. I've searched the net for a solution with no result, it might be due to the fact that milestone 2 hasn't been officially released in the middle east!!
I'm quite sure it's possible because milestone 1, Defy and Atrix users have had a solution for this issue, then why not me?
Please guys any help would be appreciated, I'm fed up with this!
I'm running the latest firmware 2.2.2
Thanks in advance!.

EDIT: there's a reason a thread has been created for general questions. had you looked through that thread there wouldnt be a need to create a new thread on this. refer to this thread for your answer.

We would have all languages if we would have a Cyanogenmod ROM but we haven't at this moment. You can eventually install More Locale app from market, and add your locale. After that you will get your language in all apps that support it.

I did search the forum and couldn't find an answer!
I did submit a question in General question thread and couldn't find an answer!
and in the original post you said yourself:
"DO NOT START A THREAD UNNECESSARILY unless you cant find an answer in this thread"
So I believe nothing wrong with this thread!

Just install the "More Locale" app from the Android Market, and add your (Arabic) locale in this app. After that all installed apps will recognize your system locale as the Arabic and automatically will be translated to this language if support it. Just try and see results.
agent008my, mkmck or anyone can help, if you could guide me through this?
I've found this generic Arabic files for android 2.2 & 2.3
but I don't know if I can apply them to milestone 2 and how? because I'm no expert in milestone 2 firmware, especially that Arabic is shown in my device but the problem is that it's not connected letters, so there is a little hope here
here is the link please check it out:

the steps to the link there is pretty straight forward. you have to make sure your phone is rooted though. to root your phone, check through the android development section of this MS2 forum and you should be able to root your phone then. read carefully, and then read again before you attempt a root. once rooted, download root explorer or something similar and you should be able to follow the steps in that blog pretty easily
edit: you should be able to search through all the extension files stated (right from checking if your ROM is deodexed to modding the system/framework extensions) in that blog after you have rooted your phone via root explorer or similar
always always perform a nandroid backup before you start rooting your phone or installing the patch. you can learn more about nandroid backups and similar android terminology and rooting through these threads:

I installed Root explorer and before rooting I've explored the Framework. I found a framework with odex extension which make it not suitable for the method the guy mentioned.
So my question here, is deodexing the rom a possible thing for a basic user (I've read it's a complicated method), or do you advice me not to do it? -to be able to apply the files-
Thanks very much!.

to be very honest with you, here is my understanding on deodexing:
Apk files have respective odexes that devs use to supposedly save space. Deodexing means you convert it back to a .dex file and put it back inside the apk. This allows you to easily replace files (not having to worry about odexes), but the main point was to deodex services.jar so that you can change all text to different colors (such as the clock color to white) and to deodex services.jar, you need to deodex everything.
to be honest i know nothing about deodexing or how difficult it is to carry out. however, i did take the liberty of searching some up for you, and there is a tutorial on this forum about deodexing. its very complete and it should be able to help you.

apparently our man here has tried more locale and it has not worked. hence the reason for this rather drastic method
I finally found a file that worked!
and here's the link for the files in case someone searched for the same problem

Thanks a lot agent008my you've been of a great help!
I've seen some other threads talking about the lack of the Optical Reader on the Verizon Samsung Galaxy S4, but just that it is lacking. Can anyone get the APK for this and upload it? I would really like to use it, but haven't found anywhere that I can get my hands on it? Would really appreciate the help! Thanks!

Thanks, but I'm not rooted, so I don't think this works for me. I tried it and got nothing. Said it couldn't do it since I don't have access.
Is anyone able to provide an APK of this for me? I'm sticking stock unrooted for now, so I would like to just be able to get the apk and sideload it. Thanks for any help!
Anybody have the apk? I've read people suggest downloading camcard from the Samsung app store but it's not the same app
Hello,
This might seem like a strange request/question, but does anyone has or know if there is a port of the stock samsung 4.1.2 keyboard (the one with the t9/abc layout) for 4.3? My dad has an s4 and he updated but Samsung changed the keyboard and there isn't a t9/abc layout, which is the one he likes the most and is more used to.
I have searched around but haven't found a port of the keyboard =/ Also, im sorry if this has been asked around here before, even though i searched i couldn't find a thread and i don't have a s4 so i don't come around this side of xda that much.
Thanks in advance!
No one? =/ Im sorry to be insisting with the thread but the keyboard my dad has now with the abc*t9 layout is always crashing and drive him crazy.
Is there a way to maybe extract the apk from the previous rom and put in this one (sorry if im saying something stupid, kinda of a noob in these)? Because its just a keyboard i was thinking that maybe there wouldn't be a issue with the different android version.

I know it is shown in an S4 mini, but i was wondering if it could work on any rom? i want to try and use it on a stock rom for GT-i9500, but i'm not sure it will work and i don't want to ruin anything.
Thanks!
sorry
