Dear Brother,
First of all your phone should be rooted (if not search it)
it must have 2.1 rom not 1.6
and you are supposed to have root explorer.(from the market)
download the following link to your computer and extract it.
mediafire.com/?65r7o8smfrog979 (add www befor the link)
u will have now two folders one called "Fonts" and the other called "lib".
now copy both folders to your SD card.
now from your phone, use the root explorer to do the following with the same order (very important to keep exactly the same order) :
1- make sure that the root explorer has the "Mount R/O" not R/W on the upper right corner.
2- copy all the files inside "Font" folder to system\font
Now in the other folder "lib" u wull have 3 files:
(from now on, u should copy just one file at a time with the following order (again it is very important to stick to the order))
3- copy just libskiagl.so to system\lib
4- copy then libwebcore.so to system\lib
5- then copy libskia.so to system\lib
here the phone will restart alone or if not u should restart it and now u can read arabic
Note:
# i dont take responsibility if your phone is corrupted, u are doing this on your own responsibility
#this arabization is not perfect so in same apps like Gmail, the subject name will be "ma3koos!!!".
# this is the best and easiest way to arabize your phone, at least till now
# this arabization will give you arabic font even over the tile bar with no problems.
# here you will get Arial font for english and arabic which is the best for reading on such a small device.
# i recommend using "smart keyboard pro" as it can be easilty upgraded to get arabic letters, and easy to switch between the two langueges while typing.
#i am not a developer, and those files are not made by me, you can get mor infos from (ce4arab.com) or (adslgate.com). but i recommend that you stick to my way of arabization.
# this is supposed to work on X10 and X10 mini pro (but i didnt try it)
# if somebody uses the method, plz comment as i want to know the results.
i want to thank Ghaith Alshareef the moderator of android in (adslgate.com)
and for sure Galaxyer (ce4arab.com)
good luck
thanks man it really works
great to have people who help around here
i am happy it worked so fast
Does this method works with another phones
i have lg gt540 with 2.1 rom
the arabic font on my phone showed not connected
actually i am not a developer, so really i dont know of it will work or not on LG
but i think that u can search this on ce4arab
Can you please reupload the mediafire link you posted, i really want to test this on my x10mini pro and the link points to something else now.
thank you
Hello guys thank you for the big help here.
Just wondering what will this method make in arabic? Is it everything even the menu and the writing or just the viewing like messages and web sites surving?
A guy told me that there is a way to make names and messages viewable in arabic without rooting ,is that possible?
Thank you again
long process
I got arabic text by just replacing one file in font folder.
i downloaded that arabic font somwere on this forum.whoever wants the font pm me.
hey guys, i am going now to post new files on my first reply with new links. this is the best arabization i have found till now
Dear friend,
this arabization allows you to view any thing arabic on almost any application (of course including the web browser) except the titles of E mails on Gmail, the letters there will be inverted.
till now i havent tried any apps which uses arabic and has problems with this arabization (the new one 18/1/2011)
so the menu and the settings are not arabized (unfortunatly)
with out rooting you can read and type your mesages with an application called "Mirsal" which is available on the market, but still you wont be able to surf the internet through arabic websites.
Thanks very much
I want you to help through one more thing unfortunately I can't surf through the market because google has blocked it from the place where i'm at right now it would be awesome if someone can upload it somewhere please
Again thank you guys this is a great topic.
Hey it's me again please guys don't bother I found mirsal in some web site
Thanks
Thats ok, you are welcomed any time

Thanks! Works Perfect!
pro
X10 mini pro here.
I can confirm that this works.
Facebook arabic posts are visible now on browser (dolphin)
Arabic websites are legible now.
Problems:
Some non-arabic text characters show as squares.
The new non-arabic new font isn't as legible but it's my humble opinion.
Some weird sqaures appeared next to some application names in the menu.
dear loony33, even though those squers appear, i still think that this is the best arabization u can get, the other fonts would make the arabic letters very small, and you wont be able to read them on launcher pro (as an example).
i hope that in the near future, i will find better fonts, i will post them then
good luck
Thank you.
I have gotten used to the new fonts now.
I am having a problem though requiring restart once or twice per day. The recent program text disappears and so do the text for the volume. Not sure what triggers that. These all would not have text underneath. Even the media volume text disappears. Any ideas?
Thanks.
hey,
I have suffered from the disappearene of text in the previous (old) font, but not in the new one. and regarding that you need to restart every day...., i am quite sure it is not related to the font maybe a new program which you recently installed!!
Hi,
which folder on the Tab contains the wallpapers for homescreen and lock screen? I would like to modify the lockk pictures slightly but cannot locate it on the tab through Filemanager.
Thanks
xdatroxx
Its located inside framework-res.apk
Ok, so there is no chance to modify/exhange some JPG?
Changing the lock screen results in some strange request to resize. I wanted to avoid that and put in my desired picture in the correct resolution right away.
thanks
xdatroxx
OK, found it, extracted the apk, send the image to PC, modified it.
Now, how to I make an apk file out of the extracted files and folders without risking to brick my tab when putting it back?
So the APK is just to be treated as an ZIP File. Easy to exchange the Pic.
Thanks.
I went to my framework-res.apk but could not find the homescreen image I wanted to relace. Could you tell me, step by step, how you managed this and what app you used etc?

Hello all !
I try to edit my first skin for sense 3.0 (well, to be honest, just changing a png by another), but it's systematically failing... I need help.
What I do :
- use any apk file containing a skin definition (many can be found on xda)
- use m10tools to decompile apk (and the m10 file inside)
- change a selected png file with another (same name, same image size)
- save with m10tools (recompile)
- resign the new apk with auto-sign
- copy this apk to the sd card and try to install
It always fail with "application not installed".
I don't know what it is wrong (but obviously I do something wrong !!)
I hope someone can help me.
Many thanks !!
Sorry for this poor english, hope is was readable anyway
I can't see anything wrong with your method. BTW your english is fine
Thank you... I know at least I'm not completely wrong...
It is probably a small detail that makes me fail. I keep on searching...
Hi all,
which system app or file(s) contains descriptions of permissions, which are loaded when installing app or displayed in Settings/Applications?
My ROM displays these permissions incorrectly and I need to fix it.
Thanks!
So, I find out that all permissions are stored in framework-res.apk file, but I still don't know, why are they displayed incorrectly in Settings, in package-installer, Gplay etc.
There is probably some bug in some file, maybe in framework-res, but where?
I could provide all information you need to solve this problem (tell what you need to know).Is there someone, who can help me, please? Thx
EDIT: Is this XDA? Because it seems nobody can/wants to help me...
Hello, I need help to make andoid apk usable. I editied factory APK to change:
-icon
-starting logo
-remove some unneeded png files
-changed some logos in APK for own- the same resolution and names
I tried it to compile by APK Easy Tool v1.59.2 but I can not finish of Compile option.
Can anybody help me to make my APK working??
nobody can help with it??
I would try other apps like Apktool M or apkeditorpro. First thing thiugh is look for compile errors log. What kind of error does it give you? I'm unfamiliar with apkeasy.
You can send me the file if you can't solve. But no guarantees i'd be able to help further.
Hi, thanks for reply. I send apk on pm.
