Me too. And it works!!
I tried it, actually, this is working until the soft restart the plugin. After that the prophet is going VERY slow (+15s to open windows directory, instead of 3s usually).

I've had that problem also. It got very slow. I tought it was something else I might have done, so I hard Reseted my device and never used the program since(because I don't use the HTC Home plugin - I just wanted to try the program).
yeah guys it make my prophet very slow
any solution can we do it ?
Hi there,
Thanks for this great app! But anyone has problems with running HTC Audio Manager in WM5? It doesn't work on my Prophet. It gives me the known 'trusted certificate' message when I try to run it. Please help
My prophet also got VERY slow! I recognized that the home plugin customizer placed about 200-300 files in windows/ (HH_....)
i think this is the reason for slow performance!
I can't understand why some programs place their files in /windows instead of this the files coulb be saved in Windows/HH_home_plugin .... or something like that.
If someone is able to do that,pleaso DO IT!!!
I considered to delete the files in /windows but i dont wanted to delete any of the "origin" home plugin files
sorry for my horrible english
Hey,
I'm the author of the customizer and I'd like to hammer out the slowness issue. The only thing I can think of is that the files are installed to a different location on your prophet (from ROM install) than the customizer is checking for. Could someone please let me know when the files are found on the device with the default plugin? I would like to fix this for the next version which is just about done.
Thanks,
emunutz

From what i've been able to find out, the slow down happens because when the program applies a skin, or just a part of it(it doesn't really matter if it's all or just a part), the files in windows folder are replaced, but as they are ROM files, the replacing of the files doesn't really overwrite them, and being so, the list of files becomes longer and longer, and that causes the PPC to slow down.
So, in my opinion, the solution starts by not having the plugin included in the rom(correct me if i'm saying nonsenses), and maybe putting it in the extrom, and making the installation go to a differente folder.

I agree, a different folder would completely resolve this issue. For instance, schen's cab installs almost everything (except HTC HDlg.exe,HTC HDlg.0409.mui, and HH_0409_WeatherCities.xml) to \HTCHome. How easy/hard would it be for the cookers to change that and is it worth changing to get better "compatiblity" with the customizer?

hi again
what I tryed to do in my V4 & 5 of prophet touch roms was to move the images to HTC folder with intflashfile.txt like this
Directory("\HTC\Home"):-File("HH_BEZEL_fill.png","\Windows\HH_BEZEL_fill.png")
but that only made a copy of the original file so I had 2 copies of the same image...
1 in HTC folder and 1 in windows folder, but what I wanted to do is move the files to HTC folder
so if anyone knows how I could do it properly I'd be verry happy,
because it would make the rom faster and would also make this customiser program even more affective.

Saving themes should not affect your device. When you save a custom theme, all the customizer does is save the name you gave it in an "ini" file in the customizer's FILES directory. Now applying a theme is a different story as that's when it's copying files to your device.
Could you or someone else test this out a little more? I'd like to release v0.8 today but if this is indeed the issue, I'd like to fix it before release.
first i am mistake about saving theme ..... i was wanted to say make backup not saving theme

anyway i will make some destructions and see the results
help pls
when i go to change themes there aren't any. It's blank! When I go to icons, it is blank also. what should I do?
Is there a "manual" way to change font type in the clock display?
It would be great to be able to do that without using that .cab
THANKS!
OK i edit myself. Numbers are png files which i guess can be edited. COULD someone post number samples so we could choose the appearance? It would be great. THANKS!
i found a cab file for it at ppcgeeks and for the life of me i cant get it to work...i keep getting the error
" the MD5 digests do not match (code:403)"
im attaching the file see if anyone can get to the bottom of this...
thanx
I don't know anything about that, but a free IM program I use is Palringo.
That's because it is coded to work on specific devices.
UPDATE Feb 14: And because its FEB 14, here is the updated Arabic files that should work on ERE 27 and CM5 Beta 5 (and hopefully future releases as well): http://arabicandroid.googlecode.com/files/update_nexus_mt_signed_ERE27.zip
I can also confirm that it works on ERE36B as well.
Thanks Ayman.
Note: mirror is also available on my site.
UPDATE Feb 4: <IMPORTANT> Please don't update for the moment if you have moved to the new Google update!
I can confirm that the update file is no longer working, please don't install it if you have updated your phone with the recent update from Google. Your phone will freeze while booting up at the Nexus logo.
The only solution for now is the half solution which I wrote about a while back. Its only about replacing the font and getting the Arabic letters unconnected.
Please visit this link: http://dumpytips.blogspot.com/2009/09/easier-fix-for-half-solution.html
There are instructions in there on how to install the font via an update file, or through the adb commands if you wish.
UPDATE Jan 22: Newer update file in links below.
UPDATE Jan 21: Thanks to Ayman, we can now read Arabic virtualy everywhere in Android 2.0 or N1 in our case via a newly introduced library file. I tested it in Gmail, SMS and Browser, its working perfectly (in Gmail, email titles are not OK though). Ayman, you deserve a medal.
I have updated the image file with Ayman's recent updates. Please see below for the download link. Everything else remains the same.
Jan 20 original post:
Hi All,
This is a different approach to enabling Arabic on the N1 in the browser and the gmail client by utilizing a signed image file I created for this purpose.
Your phone has to be unlocked and rooted. You also have to install the custom recovery image for the N1. You don't have to download the SDK.
After that you need to flash my update.zip file and you will have all the necessary files on your phone to view Arabic correctly.
If you constantly try different cooked firmwares this file will help you quickly restore the Arabic settings. Just flash it immediately after you flash any modified firmware based on 2.0 or 2.1
The contents of the image is only two files: one font file, and the excellent libwebcore.so created by Ayman (Link: http://code.google.com/p/arabicandroid)
Without this file you will not see connected Arabic letters on your phone. So big thanks goes to Dr.Dev for his work
You can download the image file from my blog article on the same topic:
http://dumpytips.blogspot.com/2010/01/arabic-on-nexus-one-almost-complete.html
Hint1: For unlocking and rooting the N1 visit this link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=612858
Hint2: For installing the custom recovery image visit this link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611829
Below are the modified commands to install the recovery image based on the file you download from the link above (in Hint1). You don't have to download the SDK at all.
Code:
Copy recovery-RA-nexus-v1.5.3.img to a location where fastboot can find it.
Boot your phone into fastboot mode (power on while holding the trackball)
Connect your phone via usb to your pc/mac/...
fastboot-windows devices (to make sure that fastboot "sees" your phone)
fastboot-windows flash recovery recovery-RA-nexus-v1.5.3.img
Cheers,
-Gus
Thanx abunch mate !! Sounds great ! I have been waiting for someone to come up with this
I flashed it and IT WORKS very well
Nice work !
Thanks Weees.
Please download the new image it has Ayman's recent updates.
Ghassan,
Thanks for putting all these files together. and thanks for your nice words.
I'll upload your file into the project's page.
Regards,
Ayman Alsanad.
Hi Ayman,
My pleasure.
A few points:
1) I used the libwebcore.so.android2.0 and not the recent one (libwebcore.so.android2.1) because Arabic in the Gmail client was not displayed correctly (reversed actually) with the recent file (though SMS and Browser were OK)
2) I tested with libskiagl.so and without it, the results were the same. I noticed the file was there in the original android distribution and that you included it, so I have re-added the file.
3) Email titles while in the list of emails in the Gmail client, is still showing incorrect Arabic in both files: libwebcore.so.android2.0 & libwebcore.so.android2.1
Keep up the good work.
Thanks,
-Gus
Hi Ayman,
I noticed you have update the file again. I can confirm its working (the reveresed Arabic is still there in the Gmail client). Thank you for your dedication to this project.
To all,
Please check Ayman's site for the latest zip file. I will only keep a mirror on my blog. All credit to him. Links in the first post above.
Thanks,
-Gus
Hello everyone and thanks for the effort you are putting behind the project.
Before I root my device, does it support Persian as well as Arabic? I mean do you only included Arabic fonts in your project?
Thanks
I can include a persian font for you in an update file. But I'm not sure about the libraries. Anyway isn't it similar to Arabic? There is no harm in rooting I guess you can afterall download apps that do require root like the excellent N1 Torch.
Try the image file and tell us what happen, then we can see how to help. Always take a nandroid backup first so you can go back if required.
-Gus
Right to Left
Thank you for the update file. It is great. Right-to-left seems to be supported only in the browser, not SMS, right?

@alishankiti
In the Browser and the Gmail client Arabic is RtL. SMS is stil LtR at the moment.
This is very impressive, thanks Ayman and Ghassan.
What's next? Calendar? In the agenda mode, it's Arabic, in other modes it's "reversed".
Can we edit a file(s) to Arabize the system settings and menu strings?
Is there any reason why Google shouldn't include this in the next update, 2.2 / FroYo? It's really a shame that we have to root and void warranty just to arabize Android.
--
Just an extra tip for users on additional arabization, I've tried morelocale2 from the market, which allows setting locale such as ar/SA. This will get the time and date on the status bar in Arabic, gets the news and weather widget in Arabic, and a few other things here and there, such as filenames.

Hey There....
I just flashed the latest v4 update and its working well, except for the Email subjects in Gmail.....the letters are messed up. But its no big deal !! This is still a major milestone
Thanks to you and Ayman for cooking this up !! Great work guys !
@tamarian,
I'm sorry I'm not aware of any files to customize the menu settings. I remember on the G1, when I used to change the locale, I would see some items in Arabic just like morelocale2 (maybe more stuff). As I said earlier as well, root is good for installing hacks and apps that wouldn't be possible without it. Like Nexus One Torch, and now the recent multitouch hack on the stock browser from Cyanogen.
@Weees,
The email subjects are actually reversed. But as you said its a major milestone anyway to get Arabic in the body of the email

MyTouch 3g
Hi, i have a rooted myTouch3g running Manups Eclair 2.1. im wondering if this will work since im running Android 2.1
Update: I just went ahead and tried it, and its working, thank you soo much
Thank you guys. I really appreciate your efforts.
Just a heads up, if you installed the new N1 update (ER27) + superboot, flashing update_ar4 will not work, I had to NAND restore. Waiting for an update or instructions from our android gurus.
true, i think the webcore is not compatible with the new update thats why the phone refuses to boot up u have to restore from back up or reflash the system
I have the updated fonts for this, but is there source available for the rest? I'll merge it into CM if you'd like.
Would be great cyanogen!

What version is your flyer
Sent from my HTC Flyer P510e using xda premium
Here is what I would do. Go to www.goodandevo.com. Download the update you want as a zip file put the zip file on your sd card then boot into recovery and flash the zip. To boot into recovery hold volume down while powering up or Rom Manager has an option to boot into recovery.
mcord11758 - i using 2.3.4 at 2.27.707.1 any solution to go back to 2.3.3 ?
geebee1932 - is a broken link u gave me? what update is that
HELLO everyone!!!! i have error opening RUU file and what should i do to downgrade back to 2.3.3
Best buy flyer right?
Edit looks like from your version number you are a asian flyer. You need to get the full package and Fastboot flash it if you can not run the ruu. I do not have that file. You are the only person I can remember having your issue. Maybe something wrong with the dl on the thread. Maybe try and find alternative source

[FIXED] WhatsApp working on Flyer
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hey all,
After much effort I have managed to get my 3g Flyer running on Leedroids ROM to run WhatsApp messenger.
Here's what I did.
(You will need an android phone[rooted] for this to work. If you try this, and you break something, its your problem, its at your own risk.)
*Make sure you have already installed and attempted to register your flyer on WhatsApp.
*Install Root Explorer on your phone and tab.
*On your phone back up your WhatsApp data.
*Now delete the WhatsApp application from your phone
*Wait 5mins so all data is cleared from your phone.
*Now download WhatsApp from the market again
*When asked to register, use your Flyers number.
*Your Flyer will receive the registration message - either forward the message to your phone, and WhatsApp will pick it up, OR - just wait for the timer to expire and insert the 3 digits from the message.
*You would have created the account now.
*Now, on your phone, using Root Explorer, navigate to data/data/ and zip the folder 'com.whatsapp'
*Using bluetooth or email, send the new zip file to your Flyer.
*On your Flyer, navigate to Data/data and DELETE 'com.whatsapp'
*Now extract the zip file, and copy/move the folder into data/data.
*Attempt to run WhatsApp, but it will probably forceclose after the registration window.
*Using Rom Manager, I run the Fix Permissions option and rebooted my Flyer
*I've now got full function WhatsApp on my 3G Flyer!
*Don't forget to delete WhatsApp and restore your backup on your phone.
