Hello there

I have managed to get fix Arabic on GB 4.5.91, through patching and compiling framework.jar and libwebcore.so.

This will work on every rom that is based on AT&T 4.5.91.

Here is how to patch your phone:

Manually

1) Be sure that your phone is Rooted and Deodexed.

2)Download GBArabic.zip attached and extract it on your phone.

3)Now using Root Explorer or any other root file mangers.

Copy framework.jar to /system/framework/ and fix the permissions

Copy libwebcore.so, libicuuc-arabic.so and libandroid_runtime.so to /system/lib/, and fix the permissions

Be sure that you set permission for all, or you will stuck in bootloop.

4) Reboot and enjoy.
​

or

CWM Flashable File

1) Be sure that your phone is Rooted and Deodexed.

2)Download CWM-Arabic.zip attached and place it on your phone.

3)Boot into the recovery, and flash the file.

4) Reboot and Enjoy :)
​

p.s.

I am quite new here in the forum. So I couldn't post this on the Dev Forum.

Arabic Files for CherryBlur v1.4d Rom ( it's based on ORFR and not working with At&t)

http://www.mediafire.com/?zd93z9leslz6wtc ... tested by me
[Atrix 4G General] mdd5:
Thanks Jack,

Does the Browser and Gmail show Arabic correctly in ORFR?

If it worked, I will update my post.

If not, could try and use my libwebcore.so on your phone, and report back to me?
[Atrix 4G General] Jack Krauser:
no it's doesn't support the browser

and sorry I changed the rom and can't test the new files

Successfully Installed - CWM Version

Just flashed the CWM file. Working on Alien ROM.

Works perfectly (RTL needs some alignment "observed in Facebook App only"). Donation is on the way! Extra ordinary work and Cheers! :)
[Atrix 4G General] mdd5:
Glad to hear that, it worked with you.

As for the Facebook App, I can't really help as I do not use the app :( .

Anyway,

Thank you, and I hope you enjoy it.

[Atrix 4G General] suleiman.aql:
copied the files manually while half asleep, seems that I've messed up :) ... was stuck in the boot screen, downloaded the automated installation file, applied it and now it works perfectly :)!

RTL is still not right in gmail messages, but that's super low priority :)
[Atrix 4G General] mdd5:
What you did wrong the first time, is that you haven't set up the permission, but hey you were half sleep I won't blame you :D.

I just noticed the alignment of Gmail, and droidace says it happen on Facebook.

It seems that these two apps, use different files to show alignment than the browser.

I will take a look at it.

Thanks for reporting, and hope you enjoy it.
[Atrix 4G General] droidace:
How to donate? - not really much though ;)
[Atrix 4G General] mdd5:
Thank you for the extreme generosity, I really appreciate it. :D

As for now, I really don't need any donations, I'm sure some people may need them.

Thanks very much, though ;)

How did you update to 4.5.91 ? official update, SBF, OTA, other ? I am still not sure what's the safest way to go to .91 with everyone warning about bricks on this forum

how did you root/deodex ?

Sorry for my dump questions if they sounded so, But i am new into this coming from the iOS land and overwhelmed with all the terms :)

Thanks mdd5

Alright Good Luck,

Did the new update of facebook fixed that issue?? It seems that it is fixed now.
[Atrix 4G General] madmack:
mdd5,

I picked up your comment on my blog and I wanted to let you know that I added your Atrix GB libwebcore.so to my blog with a special note to you. If you would mind that for any reason, please let me know and I'll remove the link and recompile the sources myself.

Great work. I'm glad to see people using my blog and the sources to get Android arabized :)
[Atrix 4G General] droidace:

Not really sure if there is an option to change the Arabic fonts? Any ideas?

Awesome work anyway with or without fonts :)
[Atrix 4G General] Ferasalsubhi:
Thank you for your effort

In Alien Rom, Does it work for Write & Read or full (with menus)?

same question in Cherry Rom.
[Atrix 4G General] mdd5:
Thanks to you for providing the sources, and keep it up.

As for for the compiled lib, I wouldn't mind posting it.

It's all because of you blog, I was able to do this.

Thanks again. :D

There is several fonts available on the Internet, I don't have any right now.

I will post it on here whenever I find one.

Right now, it is Write and Read only, (without the menus).

This patch will work on every rom that is based on AT&T 4.5.91.
[Atrix 4G General] droidace:
So guide me here, all that I need is to find the desired font and then (Rename it to "DroidSansArabic" and replace it with the one in /system/fonts?

Thank you for your effort.

But want to ask you for something

Is I must Unlock bootloader to install this patch or only root and deodex ?

And if i unlocked my phone with an unlock code form At&T, also i must Unlock bootloader ?

Also what is the meaning of fix permissions in the first option?

sorry for my stubid questions but i am new here
[Atrix 4G General] Abu-7abash:
You don't have to be bootloader unlocked to apply tge first method. Simplt extract the zip, use root explorer to copy the files where they should be then reboot.

Root and deodox are enough.
[Atrix 4G General] simonkarmy:
I do all this steps.

But after coping libwebcore.so the phone is go to black and don't wake up again.

When i remove the battery and put it again always it be on motorla logo

Please help me quickly iam really afraid for my mobile
[Atrix 4G General] Abu-7abash:
You're stuck in a bootloop, nothing to be afraid off. But at this point I'm afraid unlocking your bootloader is a must.

Check both the pudding thread and Aitomatic BL unlocker for that. Its safe and gives you a lot of flashing options afterwards, including full-arabic supporting stock 2.3.4 ;)

[Acer Iconia A500] The Odom Project:
Yes, try es file explorer. After installing, in the to left corner it has a drop down box that should be on "local" by default. Click it and choose "lan" and see if it shows up.
[Acer Iconia A500] da_maxx:
I've tried es explorer. It sees the drive. But I can't access it. It says incorrect user name. I don't have user names or passwords for the network share.

On other PC, I can enter the path into a web browser and open the share. This doesn't work from my Acer. Maybe need to try different browser?
[Acer Iconia A500] internetpilot:
I use ES File Manager to access my NAS and PC shares without issue. It also works well with FTP.

Could the problem be how your NAS is configured? Perhaps you could try ES on a regular computer share. If that works then the problem isn't ES.

[XPERIA X10 General] svtfmook:
here's a simple way, download the attached zip, extract it and copy it to your sd card

so you should have this:

SD/ApnBackupRestore/something.xml

use wifi and download 'apn backup & restore' from the market

open the app

restore

select that back up you just put on your sd card

this is a backup of my att apn's that i know works, and i am on the .71 baseband
[XPERIA X10 General] svtfmook:
if you don't have wifi, here's apn backup and restore

download this, move it to your sd card, install it (hopefully you have a file browser installed). make sure you have unknown sources checked in settings > applications.
[XPERIA X10 General] gpgon:

I tried plugging in my mini usb cables I have used for other phones but it does not fit. It looks like the opening on the MT is larger then the standard. Is anyone else noticing this?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Crkr:
I've used all my other ones fine. I use a blackberry mini usb to charge while I sleep, another blackberry cable to hook to my laptop at work, and the one that came with it at my home desktop. No problems for me.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] ggblake:
All my chargers work fine as well.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] chris2fer:
It uses microusb, not mini. The standard ones work fine.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] websculling:
It's not the volts, it's the amps....

Just as an FYI, one thing to watch out for even though the USB plug is standard is that the power output can be different on different chargers. 5v is the USB standard, but the amperage can vary. I think the Max is 1A for the USB (2?) spec, but I'm not sure if or what the Min amperage is. The V/A output should be listed on the charger.

The plug that comes with the mt4gs is 5V-1A. When I've tried charging phones (e.g. Blackberry) in the past with a 5V-.2A charger, it has worked extremely poorly (half charge after 12+hours). I would expect similar results with the mt4gs.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] _atlien_:
websculling is right. Additionally, using the wrong amperage to charge significantly decreases the number of charges you get out of your battery before it fails. Stick to chargers that have the amperage the battery was optimally designed to accommodate.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] fallenturtle:
So amperage is what matters with USB charger compatibility and not the voltage?

My wife's old feature phone came with a micro-usb charger so I'm trying to figure out if it will damage by MT4GS or the MY3GS I handed down to my wife.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
Both are important.

Too high of a voltage and you'll burn up the battery or damage the charging circuit.

Too low of an amperage (blackberry chargers) and you'll wear out the battery much more quickly. Trickling in power like that to these kind of batteries that weren't designed to handle it that way 'ages' the cells and reduces their already less then impressive lifespan.

Battery tech is better then it was even a few short years ago, but these kind of batteries in this small of a package are barely efficient enough to be useful. A few more years and things will be a lot better, but for the time being you should really try to care for your battery as best as you can and not abuse it.

I'll post the link here to the XDA battery writeup I linked to in both the anker and mugen threads later on when I get back to a real computer and am not using a phone app to browse the forums.

(Because babysitting a door you just painted and can't close right away is such an engaging task...lol)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] fallenturtle:
This particular adapter is 5.1V and .7A.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
That's not too far out of spec, but I would rather let my battery die then use it, personally. Finding an AC adapter that is in spec is very easy and very cheap.

Something to note here is the doubleshot does not have a hardware regulated charging circuit inside the phone - this is the reason why it was rough with the early unofficial ClockworkMod recoveries and the source of their charging issues.

Knowing there is no hardware failsafe, it makes it that much easier to do permanent damage to the battery, device or both.

Do what you think is best, but just want you to have as much information as possible to base your decision on.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] fallenturtle:
That's good info to know. Do you know if Espresso is also lacking that hardware failsafe?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
Unsure - this is my first smart-phone, so I don't have the history of knowledge a lot of people don't realize they possess and am playing catch-up as quickly as I can.

I know a lot about this device, and the Nook Color, but anything else is pretty foreign to me at this time.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bluppfisk:
I have bought a SGS2 in China. It comes with Chinese firmware (has English language though) but mostly with Chinese software and without Android Market. So it does not sync with Google, searches go through Baidu, I can't find and install most apps so it's essentially not very fun to use.

I have been trying to exchange the Chinese firmware for European firmware using ODIN.

Sadly, this seems not to work: the flashing always fails, leaving my phone bricked until I reflash the Chinese firmware (which works fine). This Chinese firmware has a different format, i.e. there are no CSC, MODEM and CODE tarballs. Instead there is one single tarbar containing the following files

boot.bin

cache.img

factoryfs.img

hidden.img

modem.bin

param.lfs

Sbl.bin

zImage

I would be terribly grateful if someone could help me make my 500 euro phone useful, or at least I would like someone to tell me why this firmware cannot simply be installed on this phone.

Cool. I've been playing with it for a bit and am quite happy with it.

Some problems still remain, though.

1 The Reader's Hub and Social Hub are gone, not that I care that much

2 The MediaHub still only offers Chinese services, might want YouTube there

3 I don't find a phone software update button in the settings menu anymore (do I manually have to check for updates to this mod? Probably)

4 Adding a Credit Card to Google Market makes it become unresponsive (before I even am allowed to enter a card number). Might work better back in Europe.

5 I am now using a custom rom. I feel more comfortable with stock roms. I don't want to sound ungrateful but would love to know why I cannot simply flash European stock roms and how I could circumvent the barrier.
