Newby to this site and to Android phones.
Have a rooted Samsung Galaxy S2, with gingerbread 2.3.3, and would like to add and install arabic language support mainly for Web browsing and SMS.
There is this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1063205 which I found it rather challenging due to some "jargon" and lack of clear instruction of how and where? it seems to be aimed at expert rather than casual memebers like me. tried to contact the originator madmack but system returned error message that am not allowed to .... LOL
Help please.....
Thank you

Thank you all very much, just downloaded the rather large file.
A quick question, I presume I flash it using Odin, I have extracted the .exe file downloaded and it created a folder with the same name, but the folder doesnt seem to have a .tar file to use with odin..... .
How to flash these files with odin? do I just add the whole folder? if so where to bootloader/PDA/phone or CSC....
showing my total ignorance here but hey, thats how one would learn
when the downloaded file is extracted; it should be a .tar file and u could confirm that from right clicking on it and seeing its properties
the file is loaded from the pda section in odin, making sure that the repartition option is not chosen!!!
then start and good luck
the other file on the site is the stock kernel for it, if u find any problems with use after flashing this rom, u could flash the kernel the same way u did with the rom
just simple as that!!
give us the feedback
THANX
All done and my SGS2 now have the arabic language, all seems to be working fine (camera, wifi, surfing, texting, music player...etc) so I did not have to flash the kernl. Keeping the kernil file just in case.
When powering the mobile on and off, the operator's logo disappeared which is an added bonus as I wanted to remove it anyway. powering on slightly slower (few seconds) but nothing major.
Thank you everyone for your help and I hope this thread become a simple "Idiots guide" on how to flash. Casual users of this site find it easy to DIY their handsets.
again, thanks a bunch... and a big thank you to sevoflurane and to Alexandria my all times favourite city whichI visited 4 times so far

so everything is working normal without any problems huh?
glad u managed to flash successfully and safely!! congrats!!
update...
Updating my firmware to 2.3.4 lost me the arabic, installing the above did not work and returned a number of error messages. Is there an Arabic support for 2.3.4?
Thanks
I second that.
Just wait for some good stock ROM. Look for firmwares in intratech thread
In case you guys are still looking for a way to add the Arabic language for your devices, I can confirm that this method worked for me:

Hi Crazy Cat,
Thanks for the tutorial.
One question though. I don't have WinXp, only Vista (x64 Ultimate).
I sucessfully flashed the AP3 with it to my Ameo.
Can you specify, what problem could appear?
Thank you very much.
Greetz,
DeathAngel
I only heared, that there are problems. Maybe there won´t be any problems with final release.

Some suggestions, based on english google translation:
1)
This is a guide for using the AP4 updates, which the AP team has written
I will suggest to add the name of the device (athena, and vendor's name X7500 ,....) the meaning of AP team (Athena Project team) and a web link (forum.xda-dev......)
Also in important IMHO tho explain that the ROM language is WW ENGLISH only, having LOCAL configuration for currency, date, time, numbers, operator
__________________________________________________________
2)
Also:
1. It is very important that you observe these rules:
- Only with Windows XP update, since problems could occur Vista
- The cable DURING the process never separate, no matter what.
- This guide is only a portion read further ahead, so that no surprises.
- The battery has about 50% have electricity
I will call this step CHECK LIST before starting, adding
- Remove the Storage Card , if any
- The device should be connected to a USB PC port, avoiding HUB
- Disable power saver and or screen saver, if any
- Don't touch the cable or the device during the update process (only to confirm if asked)
- Close all opened application on the PC, don't run anything during the update process including MSN Messenger, ICQ, Skype and similar (I've seen below but is better to UNIFY the ckecklist I believe)
I suggest to split the check list between DEVICE and PC . Point 1 could be
Check List
DEVICE
-
-
PC
-
-
_____________________________________________
3)
3rd By updating all available data from X7500/X7501 deleted. Create a backup of the data. Uses example Spb Backup. Microdrive data are not deleted!
I don't believe that SPB backup could restore the applications on a fully new ROM, and if he does the device will never work as supposed. PIM backup is for PIM data,freeware and may be this will work. Microdrive AND STORAGE CARD are safe
____________________________________________________
4)
4th ....not even the writer(s) of this manual....
_______________________________________________
5)
5th It is not a must, but very welcome, an AP to make a donation.
Is important to "enforce" the message explaining that this is a way to say Thank you to the team, this will help to improve this ROM and this will help to have always new releases!
My Italian version below....

Usually HOW to is written and discussed BEFORE releasing the update. Then how to will be released in a final, multilanguage version, with the ROM .
This is a developer's forum, a place were the stuff is discussed BEFORE the release
thx for the answer
but i'm too impatient
Here you have Polish translation .
Here is a more interactive tutorial on the AP4 install. Please feel free to correct any errors.

Beautiful presentation! My suggestions are
1) I agree to have a beer at the end, but I will suggest AFTER a DONATE Link! Also the AP team loves the beer!
2) Flash video couldn't be printed and should be better to have AP Upgrade printed out instead of having a Flash presentation running during the update process!
3) RUU Screens translation is needed for "bad english speakers"

Installing the AP 4.0 ROM v1a - Croatian translation
Hello to all,
Here is Installing the AP 4.0 ROM v1a - Croatian translation based on BAIRDA's english original. Unfortunately I do not speak German language and I was not able to use a certainly good German original written by crazy_cat.
I hope it will help Croats (if any here) to install AP 4 ROM in the future.

Hi all,
This is my first ROM it's the stock ROM for devices shipped in Egypt. I have followed the process as in the kitchen thread but I don't know how to make sure if this ROM is working properly or not. So hope one of you guys can test it and tell me.
By the way I don't encourage anyone to use this one except those looking for warranty as the GPS is disabled in this ROM.

Yes, check this thread and my discussion with taiseer, he is really a nice guy and made a good job.
By the way if you are not intending to use arabic interface (i.e just reading and writing I encourage you just to use Mobidiv 416 and the keymapper to support the Hardware Keyboard.

Hope to help me.

Hi microfox,
Could you please provide us "What you did to enable the GPS"?
I get my Jade "Touch 3G" from Egypt and want to enable GPS.
Thanks a lot
I thought Jade had no GPS ship installed. Please correct me if I'm wrong. If it exists the only thing to do is to download the middle east rom from HTC site, it will be enabled by default 9again if GPS exists). Just go to support page, choose either the arabic or wwe rom, put your serial number and download. The rest is easy: connect to activesync, have more than half battery full, double click on the exe file you downloaded, follow the steps, and voila!!!
Hellow,
I'm lookingfor a fast ,stable rom that comes with option to have full hebrew menus, and full hebrew support.
I'v been looking for such rom for over a month and couldnt find one.
I'll be thankfull if someone will help me.
These two Im sure off that have Hebrew support, they're both Gingerbread though so make sure to carefully read all the instructions before flashing.

Hi Guys
I (like an idiot) tried to update my Lumia 800 and 710 manually to 8170. The update went smoothly on both devices however many things dont work.. most importantly the "call" function. If i touch phone it crashes and get back to the screen it was on (home usually)
is there a way i could revert these phones to the stock rom?
Please help - i have a phone without a real dialer!
Thanks a lot
P.S. both these phones are unlocked (no contract)
Did you install the language pack with the 8170 update? That's the usual cause of that problem.
this is the name of the cab file i flashed
diff-7.10.7740.16-7.10.8107.79-armv7-retail-microsoft.pks_c9b7f3bc5bb340ba30473b566b4557de0cf3322e
If you just used that, then no, you did not install the language pack. Do that and it'll work again
sorry a little new at WP& flashing so might ask noob questions.. but i used this file and flashed both my lumias - now the call function does not work - how do u suggest i revert / make this work? i re-flashed it again - but after the entire process my phone say "update unsuccessful"
To make it work again you need to install the language pack.
Pretty sure there is a stock .cab gloating about, either in the huge .cab thread or in the dev forum.
ah couldnt really find the stock rom, let me try installing a language pack.. be back with the result soon thanks bud!
Language pack downloads are here: http://www.mobiletechworld.com/2012...l-out-started-get-it-now-and-update-manually/
perfect Rusty - all seems to work fine now thanks buddy!
tjramage - thanks for the link
Rusty - phone works perfect now (hopefully wont act up again) thanks a lot buddy.
tjramage - thanks for the links
a mod can probably close this discussion now

But when you want to download anything from this site you need membership in https://pan.baidu.com/s/1jIP7pno. For this you need a china telephone number for the OTP to be sent . I am stuck there.
The Chinese web page cn be translated easily by Google translate, The rom I told is in Chinese Language. As I know from the discussion there is no multi language option in this rom. So my request is to anybody who has membership in this website, p;ease download it and p;ease translate it to English . It will be great help for those having Galaxy note 8 SM-N9500.

As spoken earlier, if you prefer English room of tomeitolei website then there is no chance to get it since all ROMs there are only in Chinese and even some rom doesn't contain gapps or Google play store. Best way is to stay unroot or else you root by changing TGY bl to CHC bl then root with SuperSU or maybe magisk if you can.
http://bbs.gfan.com/forum.php?mod=f...ypeid=12917&typeid=12917&filter=typeid&page=1
here is an other site for n9500 roms.
for both bbs or tomatolei sites, downloads are mostly hosted at Baidu.
its free and dosent require an account.
use a computer or request dektop version after entering passwords to access download links.

hey, there. I'm from China, and im glad to help you with the download, i can download it and upload it on Mega if you want.

Thanks for this difficult and great effort from u,that too when even u r not having a note 8 SM-N 9500..

There are two CSC files
1- CSC_Tomato-N9500-RA2-v5.0-odin.tar.md5
2-CSC_WIPE_Tomato-N9500-RA2-v5.0-odin.tar.md5
Only one can be flashed in Odin, which one?
I went to tomotlei site with help of google translate, but failed to find tutorials
I think before flashing a factory reset may be required
I know I am asking too much help from u, but there are nobody else I can ask. If you can find a tutorial kindly post it so that all interested parties can be benefited.

I know I am asking too much help from u, but there are nobody else I can ask. If you can find a tutorial kindly post it so that all interested parties can be benefited.
Thanking You

flash it just like stock ROM, use BL AP CP CSC files, CSC_WIPE means if you use this file, it will erase all your data on your phone (recommend, avoid FC problem), another one is keeping your data (using when update 6.0 release).
CROM need to be unlocked, otherwise you cant flash it (Odin will show FAIL), you can find tutorials in xda forums to unlock the CROM.
Chinese in the opening windows

thanks for your help.
I flashed the rom by odin, putting csc file - all wipe
all went smoothly, and rebooted, but the screen came with chinese writing with three options lower down, which i could not understand .
I pressed the top option, then started updating, finally the rom installed.
There is english language, but no google play or services.
Then i flashed the latest gapps for nougat 7.1.1, (aroma variant) . Installed corrctly, but fails to open the google play stone- crashed
then i wiped whole rom, restore the stock without the difficulty.
What i noticed is that , i could not find all the additional options they clamed in this rom under settings, it is the same as the stock rom, only there is change of battery icon and the clock is in the centre.
May be it is due to the option i selected.
Finally, what i think is that we need some help from persons who knows chinese and english to help us all to give a good tutorial to flash this rom.
It is very smooth and you can flash it easily and reverted back also easily. You will not loose your root or twrp
so somebody who knows english and chinese , please come forward and help us all.
Once again thanking you

I have to tell you that if you flash it, you will:
get a rooted phone
can only charge your phone to 80%
lose official customer support from Samsung immediatly
shows unofficial phone every time you boot it up
etc.
I dont really suggest you to do that, to be honest. But it is your choice.
