BIDI spport (aka Arabic, hebrew...)

Hi all,
I have been looking around for long time and trying different solutions to add Arabic (BIDI or RTL) support to my vibrant but with no luck.the only thing is just adding the font so instead of showing squares it shows the letters but disconnected and in reverse order.
Have any one been successful in porting the language support from the i9000 middle eastern rom? I tried but my phone will not boot and I don't know how to access the log at that stage to see why or what is missing.
Do we have a better built in support in froyo? Or it is the same?
I have seen many threads in many forums but most are not active for long time.
Any help will be appreciated.

I managed to make an arabic 2.1 rom. Everything works fine with exception of GPS. Just do not know how to create a flashable zip file for the rom to post it.

How did you do it?
Where did you get the files from? or you compiled your own?
Is it working now right-to-left and reshaping?
I would appreciate your help.

Can you provide us with that script or show where to get it from? maybe we can update it to work with the new rom.
There is an update rom running froyo 2.2 for Orange (I9000JHJP4) and has support for Arabic and hebrew, i tried to get some files from it to my 2.1 but did not work, i know i am missing more files that should be also integrated. that rom is for the international Galaxy S i9000 so it might not work with Vibrant
you can find the rom at samfirmware.com

I tested this patch without any changes and got the same error
I am trying to understand this java disassembled code to be able to fix it for the new ROM.
The patch already cover the full range of unicode characters for hebrew and arabic + other rtl languages.
Can anyone help me with generally understanding the disassembled code or provide links to some resources that can help?

Look at this thread, one guy is trying the same thing and he is getting the same error, and i think he got a work around in a hebrew site which i could not understand so you might find the solution to your problem there http://iandroid.co.il/forum/topic5657.html but for me I still need the Arabic character reshaping so RTL alone is not enough
And this is the link to the XDA thread where they discuss the same issues, and it seems that they are about to integrate the BIDI solution into the AOSP and CM

Drifta app for Evo 3d?? Please someone unlock this app!

Hi Guys,
Here in South Africa we have DSTV, our Digital Satellite TV. They have a Mobile App for Android on Google Play:
http://apps.dstvmobile.com/decoder
This application works on the following devices, running Android 2.2, 2.3, 3.x and 4.
Play store says this app will work on my phone, and it states its for 2.3. I have the HTC Evo 3D, which i imported. These DSTV developers (so they called) make this app specific to different HTC's, they have a supported phones list and my evo 3D is not on this list. I ave NO idea why they do this as it is Android 2.3??
I REALLY Need someone to unlock this app for the Evo 3D, when i install the app and RUN it, the reads this:
"Your Android Device is not supported by this application" It seems to do a server check before this message check.
Please let me know your thoughts? I know someone here did the previous app when it was still called Decoder.
Thanks guys!
This is the wrong section.
But you can try to edit your build.prop and change the device id to one of the devices that is on the "supported-list"

of course you are not a developer. That's why you posted it in here.
Q&A would be the correct forum. But as I said, you can try to edit your build.prop and change the device ID

It ain't gonna happen til you root, expecting otherwise is very noobish, root your device and ask again in q&a and il guide you on how to do it
get the apk from somewhere else and install it manually..
Why you dont use "apkoptic" to save the .apk on sd ? I think no Root required...
--- Sorry for my bad english, I'm French. ---
--- Skrived gant va Breizh evo 3D ---
You have to root your device to modify some system files in order to "fake" another device. I remember I faked my Evo3D as a Sensation in order to run some app.
The files in question are build.prop and some other xml (can't remember ).
Or someone could edit the app to not care what device it is? Its been done before..

sorry friend Idk to edit the package too
if you are rooted you can try flashing the latest gapps package that should fix this and try fixing permissions
if you are not rooted then wait for someone to edit it for you or do a search and do it yourself
