Arabic Support on Froyo Update? - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anyone know if Froyo 2.2 supports arabic?
And when exactly is the Vibrant's update going to be out?
I've tried so many ways in trying to obtain arabic support on the phone, and worst care I may have to go back to nokia (symbian )
Please let me know! Thanks

Thank you, mods.
OP, don't know if froyo will support Arabic. As for its release on the vibrant, there is no exact date announced. Most are expecting it to be here sometime between the end of Sept and Dec. Be patient.

OP, if you would do me a favor and please let me know if/when you find an answer as I have some aribic coworkers who would love that.

I heard about a hebrew mod floating around. Have you looked into customizing that mod yo work with arabic?

I speak farsi and an Arabic or Farsi support would be lovely!

My nexus one 2.2 does display Arabic sites though I don't know any of them. Vibrant, on the other hand, does not in 2.1 version.
You may want to wait for G2 to see whether it suppports Arabic or not.

i've seen your post everwhere in the forum, or could you just take a photo of your hardware keyboard and let us see if there's any different with ours? because DougalScott have replied to your post in EnergyRom thread, and what i see is the same with him, our Touch Pro keyboard the FN+0 is ), so maybe you can let us take a look at your hardware keyboard???
check out energyrom thread, the answer is there
i experienced the same problem, just read through the thread and found it
basically the settings of energyrom is for fuze, u just have to select the at&t keyboard... and thats it
use the search button for the step by step guide
Jump into the registry and change
HKLM->HARDWARE->DEVICEMAP->KEYBD then the value CWSLayout from 1 to 0. Quit the registry editor and power off and on the phone and it'll all be good...
Now if anyone knows how to get the £ and euro signs working as I'm a Birtish user...
Hope that helps dude...

HAve you tried setting your locale to en-GB in settings? They work fine on mine
ok, I feel like a total n00b again :-( lol (not that there's anything wrong with being a n00b, we all were once!) - but can't find this setting anywhere... been through all the options in settings :S - got my keyboard set to English (United Kingdom) - even changed to to United States and back to UK again & rebooted.. but still not love for me is this the place you're referring too???
Cheers for the assist, would love the keys back
try this i have the same problem and now it's ok
dude! what do you think "keyboard selector" in "Start - Utilities - Tweaks" is for?
Your Keyboard is most likely set to Fuze-Layout, it's way different from the original ToucPro Keyboard.
else your hardware-keyboard has to be differnt

Not sure if your message was for me or not - I'm not using the same ROM as the original poster.. I'm on Da_G's fine light ROM - nice and fast and plenty of room for customisation - actually just finished flashing to the new ROM specifically for the o2 serra and the keys are working ok - so gonna do some digging in the registry and see if I can spot the changes - might stay with this rom as it's light and fast too, but knowing what I'm like I'll be flashing it again within 24hrs
Thanks for the replies tho...

Hey dude, I see where you're coming from and not wanting to start an argument / get flamed / banned / eaten or most importantly upset anyone... but easy there tiger! Looking at the initial poster - diogoamato - he registered on May 08 and has made 4 posting since, so either he's done nothing really with his phone or has been doing what a large number of us do - sit and read the posts and learn stuff.
As for me, well I been a professional support guy for MS products since '96 and started using WM5 back on my Axim X51v when it came out, back then I registered on a few forums with XDA-dev being one of them, but then there was only really one place to be as an Ax. owner - aximsite - where I like to think I was contributing to the scene, however my xda-dev account went largely unused. It wasn't until last Nov / Dec I moved over to my Raph. and initially thought I knew a heck of a lot about WM and its workings, esp flashing, but soon realised I got a lot to learn and have spent my time reading & reading again and getting frustrated with the search.. but that's another topic! lol - now I've come a long way since Nov and am starting to try to help others where possible (work, time, etc.) - yea sometimes I think "man, use the search" or "why you flashing and messing with things you dont understand" but mainly I think why not try to help???
Personally I'm trying to get to grips with the kitchens and learn how to build my own custom roms and like all my skills I'm doing it my way; by reading and learning, & trial & error, only one or twice have I asked a querstion from a chef or reported a bug, but only after giving it some serious work myself... I cant remember how many times I've hard-reset my Raph. cos I stuffed it whilst trying to resolve a bug / issue...
I suppose I'm trying to say there are those of us here who use this massive knowledge base that makes this site number 1 and give back what we can. Yea I'd 100% agree if this original poster had a reg. date of Jun '09 : posts 1, but he (and lots of others) have been around for sometime, just we all cant' reply as much as we wished we could...
Well, that's my £0.02 worth...
Peace & love

Well,
Although I don't usually do so but I will answer you because I believe your comment is actually a comment instead of the usual asinine bunch of non argumentative attacks we see over here more often than desirable...
I will try to outline my ideas...
Then yo can comment it, if you like, in a PM. Let's not flood the thread with offtopic information.
01. We were all noobs once...
02. There are MANY forms of noobness...
03. I ALWAYS [without exception] try to help. This is a community, if I am not willing to contribute there is no point on being here. [as a mater of fact I contribute a lot more than I get... And that's the way it's supposed to be]
04. I can accept ignorance, lack of knowledge or even «mind simplicity»
05. I do not - and I repeat: do not - accept stupidity, laziness, indolence, lack of initiative, lack of commitment, etc... Especialy in a community. If everyone behaves like that we get simply nowhere.
06. If you don't search, you should learn to do it
07. If you believe the WIKI is actually hazardous to your health, it's a shame and you should get some counseling
08. If you don't even bother to read the thread you are posting on, that's just proposterous.
09. I usually answer questions that have already been answered 1.000.000.000 times when they have a reason to be posted.
10. I will not tolerate or have a good reaction towards asinine behaviours
11. Although I do see your point, if you spend some time around here you'll get the feel of the place... Then you will see [or maybe even feel] what I mean... Especially if you are a Chef Wannabe... You will ge to really understand the meaning of ingratitude and true offense. [The majority of members is NOT like that but some should just cease existing...]
12. Whenever one endeavours in or witnesses a non meritable coarse of action, one should allways fight it or withdraw.
P.S. I've been around, you know... After some time you just loose your patience... Users who are actually takers should't be allowed ti be here... That deeply compromises the integrity of the thin fabric of developers society... If you understand my predicament...
Cheers and good luck in you new quest The ROM cooking one

All those points are spot on - can't argue with any of those.
Several months back, there were a few posts regarding the influx of new members to XDA. Through these conversations, it was discovered that many Carriers are sending their customers here for solutions instead of adequately investing the required dollars into their internal support network.
As a result, newcomers often come here with what they perceive as a new issue and no idea on how to begin looking for a solution ... with the hope that finally, someone will help solve their problem.
XDA has changed; it continues to be about development but that has become an elite sub-culture. Very few will make it there, some will get close, most never will. And those that never will, are usually visiting XDA for information on solving an immediate problem, nothing more - this I feel is the new culture that is emerging on XDA.
I try my best to help those who want to try to get closer to what XDA is about. Like you, I do see posts that frustrate me and for the most part, I simply choose not to answer those.
So yes, we are all guilty of losing patience at one time or another ... I included.
I don't know if that guy got his hardware keyboard issue resolved or not. But, for what it's worth, I have a Fuze that I upgraded to the newest NRG rom. I found out that my function keys and shift/cap key would not function after installed an aftermarket keyboard. It was the keyboard ripped from the Touch Diamond 2.
The keyboard worked fine on a stock fuze so it was a surprise to me.
Just my experience to share..
heyho,
Key: HKLM\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD\CurLang
Codes: English 1033
That took me...uhhm.. less than 1minute to search. wiki->raphael->keyboard layouts.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Raphael_Keyboard
Don't forget the cwslayout! for touch pro (0) und At&T (1), as MadMic stated.
Softrest is mandatory.
I hope that helped...
garans
P.S.look for UC and make a XML or CAB to do this for you after every flash)
Thanks dude, I'd flashed the Serra ROM (OK o2 brand name for Raph.) and it sorted the fn key issue out, so a little digging in the registry to compare between the two and I'd figured the curlang out, came back to drop a posting about it and you'd beaten me to it - time to spend some more time in the wiki - lol
Was thinkging about using the UC so I dont have to do this again when I flash to another ROM (wont be long as learning the kitchen stuff now... howe long before I got a brick?? lol lol)...
Peace & Love

Problem with GTalk on ALL ROMS??

I have had this problem with every rom I have downloaded for ages now... right back to my sapphire days.
I run my own business.. and it has its own website... www.contractremovalservices.co.uk
now a cool feature I added to the site was a gtalk button... top right of the page.. 'ask us a question'
This then buzzes my phone, and I can have live chat support on the site... where ever i am! cool feature! -- apart from, when a user clicks the link.. I get a buzz.. and I have to accept the chat invitation.. and then the chat disappears. Every time!
Have checked with the stock roms and it all appears to work correctly... but who wants to run stock?!!
So can anyone take a look at this.. because i wont run stock.. but i`m losing customers because of this!
Help!
Moved to Q&A. Please don't post question threads in Development.
sorry... just wanted alot of dev`s attention as this applies to all roms! (apart from stock)
Thats why people should use stock rom and not custom roms
Stock forever
stock is boring... and I thought this should be brought to attention of all the devs, as this is a bug affecting all cooked roms
Bump
Anyone looking into this??.

Asking for support from my fellow RAZR owners

Hello all,
I started a thread in motorola support forums about the lack of Turkish language option in the Razr. My question remains unanswered for more than 10 days and whatever i did (pm'd moderators and hijacked other threads) The official moderators ignore our concerns and didn't answer. It is very sad since i am a loyal motorola customer for years and i hate the fact that they just don't give a f*** about us.
If you're a registered member at supportforums.motorola.com please spend a minute and show your support, so they can't resist on ignoring us. If there wasn't motorolan communities, nothing would be as tasty as it's been for years. Thanks for your support, my friends.
Regards, Semseddin.
https://supportforums.motorola.com/message/507376#507376
So, 110 views and no replies. Nobody gives a f*** on here,too. Thanks anyway !

Nice attitude. Most generic posts have more than 100/1 viewing/posting ratios, if you combine that with how many of those 100 viewers were Turkish.....

@Dakota,
Sorry if that sound like a bad attitude but it wasn't like this where i came from. We're used to support each other as a community. It is not that only for Turkish razr owners, asked for support from other RAZR owners worldwide to give me a shoulder on this issue against ignorant motorola officials.
It is not that I don't care about languages or other people but I think it is better to let them work on bugs and ICS than this.
Sent from my awsome Motorola RAZR
When ICS will be given to the RAZR users, you'll have any language you want as we'll have an unlockable bootloader.
Anyway, there's a way to include turkish language on RAZR, but I don't know how as I'm not a ROM developer, never been in this job. I've ever done only kernels since I switched to Android.
Heh, good ol' WM5 times....

[Req]Indian Languages for ICS

I request the developers here for help on adding Indian languages on ICS especially for "Malayalam" language
Pls see this link
http://androidandsandu.blogspot.in/2011/12/how-to-add-indian-languages-to-android.html
Thanks in advance
Hi , I do not think any developer would be willing to do this.
This is because there are hardly any Indian developers in this forum.
And developers from other countries , most likely would not like to invest in something which they would not be able to use.
Yeah , there is one Indian whom I and the world knows... HAKA (Epic Dev.)
I guess , you'll have to read a tutorial or something and do it on your own.
P.S - Even I wanted "Hindi" language... But I doubt anyone will do it. Will have to figure it out myself. Just didn't get the time to look for it.

Hindi is already there in ICS ...
Hindi is there, but in UI rendering is broke., Only in webkit it renders perfectly.
Your blog link seems to solve the problem.
Only way to help is to post this link to http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=4153, the official place to post this rendering bug for indic languages.
May be we can pester someone like Haka or Koushik Dutta? to include this in AOKP or CM9?
But first we have to see if this really fixes it.

Yeah that's the plan.
I have (tried to) register ... guess I am waiting for the Moderator to OK it.
Maybe we could request a sub-forum in English for non-Native German speakers, so the poor German speakers don't despair with our Google translated posts
Strange is you cant find the Forum over the Page normally in the tabs but if you search for Forum than it appears I think they are shortly before official announce
I am not really satisfied with this format. It is a german Forum. But the G model is global. So not even all EU users are covered. That's bad and splits the G model community.
Just sign in Open an Thread in english but use google translate or something else that a thread get not doubled
You get me wrong. I am German and signed in allready, so no issue for me.
But I think this community is operated from ZTE Germany. That's the down side.
Why not global for G model
I am signed in, too
Lets hope they will at least create a global section.
I think you could post english content to the german sections, someone there should speak english and eventually they will create a section for non german speaking users
No but seriously the masquerade needs to end at some point. Yes that's a very welcome improvement (props to nuridurdu27 for their involvement!) but why is it that the community looks like a half baked student project (they really can't take the template of ZTE US community?), and most importantly why is it only in german? if ZTE germany is taking care of developping the rom for the international A2017G variant that's fine by me but they need to communicate with everybody in english and stop simply answering random questions in german on facebook. It's very amateurish, it's as if ZTE was outsourcing their product development to some companies worldwide and doesn't have a proper framework outside China/the US. I guess ZTE HQ should really step in and even out their efforts. Anyway, I'll try to whine a bit on ZTE france to check if they can do anything aside posting ads on facebook.
What is they are talking about?
