[Q] How do the font rendering work on android? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am using Sony xperia x10 mini, android device. and i am an android
developer.
I am planning build keyboard/input app for Indian languages for the
android.
By default, android doesn't render Indian text.
I started with little R&D. I replaced DranSansFallback.ttf with a font
having Indian glyphs.
This worked but there is rendering is not perfect.
Indian languages are complex combination of vowels and consonants. And
it fails to render correctly.
For example:
"ಕ ನ್ನ ಡ" is rendered as "ಕ ನ್ ನ ಡ".
It is readable but it should be "ಕನ್ನಡ"
I am not sure why this is happening.
Thanks for help in advance

Yes, there is a problem with Android rendering. We need to make some changees in framework-res.apk (source) like how Arabic team did it. I'm not sure whether it will work for us or not but I'm just guessing it . If you are an android developer then you can do it . I'm looking for Android Developer, if you are interested in contribute something then let me know .

Samsung Galaxy phones have Indian fonts, will try to get you the files soon, or search for my device - galaxy 3
In its sub-forum, someone posted a dunp of the latest firmware with indian fonts
Search this in Galaxy 3 General
"JP6"
Download the dump, and you can use Magiciso to browse the rfs files(factoryfs.rfs is /system)

How about using WebView for Indian fonts? Whether that would do any good in your case?

[Q] Help HD7 PRO android 2.3.4 dualsim MTK6573

Hello good evening from Spain
Excuse my English, but use google translator. I hope to post on the proper subforum if it is not so forgiveness can movermelo where appropriate.
I have a HD7Pro with mtk6573 Dualsim, and supposedly has flash support, but the new flash11 from the market tells me that is not compatible with the device. I tried some version of movilesdualsim.com 10.2.XX.XX and 10.3. But when I try to open a video you need Flash tells me to install
Apk Youtube if I works perfectly
Gingerbread comes by default with 2.3.4, no more data to provide, but will monitor your questions to try to fix it as soon as possible.
Also I have a problem that had not had with any android, and that is when I am connected to receive data and a data call is blocked. Maybe this is normal when dual sim, but I would like to confirm, as I have wanted to try to create my own rom
Another problem I have is also the camera, when I make a picture, get the flas and then capture it, so the photo is no light.
I hope they can help me because I know that this is the best, if not the best forum, android support. I very much hope you
Another question also is if they know if there is any support rom Spanish to Chinese and other apps setae unimportant things
A greeting and thank you very much
P.D.: The battery indicator is completely at your roll ...

[Q] MiniCM7-2.1.8 on X10 mini pro: Howto install QWERTZ keyboard layout?

I have MiniCM7-2.1.8 on my X10 mini pro, and now I am stuck finding the correct way to enable the QWERTZ keyboard layout for the Standard and Android input method including the special German characters.
slade87's thread gives some (although quite confusing) info, but the files for download are not working any more, because they are based on the old update-script-style not supported by CWM any more.
It should not be that hard to perform such an important localization, most solutions only manipulate the keyprint.xml, but that's not enough.
So can someone please explain how to get fully localized QWERTZ keyboards for the German language up and running?

Use the application mini rom manager ... Search in xda..
Sent from my U20i using xda premium
Ok, switched to QWERTZ using ROM Manager, but as I already knew, this only switched it for the Standard Input, but not the Android Input.
I have seen in slade87's thread, what has to be done, to switch the Android Input, but I don't know how, since the downloads in slade87's thread do not work any more with recent CWM, and I really do not want to fiddle around in the ROM manually.
Any suggestions, or do just have to forget about the Android Input?
I´m going to "fix" my dad´s phone tomorrow so stand by until then..
Thanks, that's good news! I am very interested in how this problem can be solved.

use attached files and override old files using root explorer.
IMPORTANT: don´t forget to set correct permission for the files or your buttons will not work anymore.

Looks like the Arabic letter, two letters of the font identifier is U+0649 and U+06d5 instead of Arabic U+0647
And the rules of the connection of these two letters with Arabic. There are about several forms:
U+0649---{FEEF, FEF0, FBE8, FBE9}
Another is:
U+06d5 --- {FBEC FBED, FEEA, FEE9}
No two-letter Reshape the all androidreshape code!
So I need to solve this problem!

You may apply the changes included in the above package against the MIUI RTL patch (the package) and it should make it shape Uyghur better

Hello. Prompt please. Possible to fix in this firmware to connect to pc and bluetooth?
Convert zip flash corsica to iso.
Good afternoon. I already installed you corsica software in my phone but I did not have much time to test and I returned to the Samsung's baseline S5312B. Now I have two versions of virtual machines with VMware and my purpose is to test the corsica software of this web site. I have a machine (VM) in cyanogan mode (core Tiny Linux 3.0) and tried flashing the zip but it didn't work. I have another VM installed thru Android's standard iso, version 4.2 but I have not been able to simulate the CWM mode to flash the zip. The other option is AVD, it could be workss but perhaps it's not a good idea due AVD it's too slow.
Please can you convert the zip image into a bootable iso file or could you tell me how make this conversion? I Would love to try the software and all its peculiarities. Thank you.
Best regards,

Font problems
Hi,
Is there a way to make the fonts a little more sharper?
On the stock ROM there was a option in Settings -> Display, named "Increase legibility", with made the fonts much less blurrier and easy on the eyes.
On the CM ROM I found no such option, and also searching on the forums and on the Google I couldn't find anything about it
That is a pity, because I liked very much this ROM but the fuzzy fonts make my eyes very weary quickly.
Voice Call Not Totally Supported In 3rd App
I have installed app like Viber to test it. The mic works perfectly but the earpiece is no function. I am writing to you with regard and hope that this bug can be fixed soon.
Sorry for broken English!
Model Compatibility
does it works on the GT-S5310B model?
the motherboard of the gt-s5310b is the same as GT-5310?

Ok first thanks for the rom, it runs smoothly and all.

Great Xperia users ~! help me

Great Xperia users ~! The Xperia non-official program
There are so many that my mind is getting confused
I have 2 questions and leave a post
Question 1
The Japanese version is an nfc that has a completely different specification from the global version.
So if you replace the firmware with a different version in the Japanese version
I know you can't use nfc,
I wonder if it is impossible to replace the ROM with another country version
(Example: Brick)
Question 2
During the volte patching process, Xperia is not only changing the efs file.
I need to change the oem file, but can I disassemble the file from modem.sin?
Please help me, I am a complete beginner If you can help me, I will donate
