Improvements in CM 7.1

I am on CM 7.1 for past couple of days on SGMini GT S5570.

There is a marked improvement in Indic rendering. Right now, tried only Malayalam. But things look bright. Vowel modifier placement has improved - the dotted circles in front of signs for long a, i/e (the re in "sa re ga ma pa:) are now absent, and the modifiers are properly placed.

But glyph substitution and glyph reordering (conjuncts and for signs like kra, ksha, etc) are not yet fixed.

But text is a lot more readable!!!

The ROM I am speaking of:-

Great. But I still need more detailed instructions. I have installed a root explorer on my rooted Incredible2 and downloaded this filew to my PC. Also, on the explorer I have opened up the system/fonts for write. What next!
[Android Software Development] AceTrader:
Extract the DroidSansFallback ttf file from the downloaded zip file.

Copy and paste the ttf file to system/fonts.

Confirm the overwriting of the existing file.

Now you are done :-)

[Android Software Development] genieass:
Prof., Hi!! Nice to see you here.

Your question is answered, but just want to point out that Indic text requires reordering, glyph substitution and repositioning. This may not work. So, you may be reading "ka-rey" instead of "ke-ra". (Using ASCII since I am not sure if your environment supports Indic rendering).

BTW, you can use this (DroidSansFallback.ttf) on your PC too.
[Android Software Development] Elythor:
I've d/led the Fallback TTF from first post and I can show ಠ_ಠ

However I've lost the ability to show other languages such as Japanese / Chinese etc. I think that's because the new Fallback font have eliminated other languages.

Is there a way to combine the original DroidSansFallback and the new one so I get the better unicode support for multiple languages?

Rendering Indic Fonts in Galaxy Note N7000 CM9.1 ICS

Rendering Indic (Devnagri/Malayalam being my priority) Fonts Properly in Galaxy Note N7000 CM9.1 ICS

Does anyone has any ideas on this. The stock ROM renders the fonts properly. But not on CM9.1 which I use.

I don't to switch to JB (battery drain) or ICS (Stock). :(

I have tried editing the fallback_fonts.xml & adding fonts to fonts/ folder but that doesn't meet the needs.

BTW Chrome renders Malayalam & Hindi properly for me.

Thanks
[Android Software Development] sridharrn:
Yes, 4.0 was first step to Indic languages. Rendering works perfect in all screens from 4.2.2 only.

Stock do work fine because samsung have implemented there own font rendering stuff.
[Android Software Development] ramanvemman:
Thanks

But is there a away like decompiling framework etc?. I belive the lib files that help with font rendering are skia, harfbuzz?

I read somewhere google fixed rendering in browser from ICS. But to me its still partial glyphs are misplaced alway.

But in Chrome for Android it displays correctly

Thanks

Hi all

I am sure this has been done to death, and I have searched, but keep twisting myself around and around.

I recently installed CyanogenMod 6.0.2 with LauncherPro Plus and really like it, but I do miss some of the Sense stuff and, as such, am considering heading back to a Sense based ROM...at least for now.

That said, I much prefer the way that Cyanogen deals with Syncing Google, Twitter and Facebook Contacts. I think it is the Facebook and Twitter for HTC Sense that cause my pain..as I can't setup a standard facebook/twitter sync option.

Does anyone have a ROM recommendation for Sense based, but without these apps installed? So I can sync my contacts etc like I can in Cyanogen?

Cheers

Any ideas, please?

I've run across other roms with camera apps that use the on screen shutter button. is there any way to snatch this app and copy/install it to my working android rom?

...and yes. I've done many many searches, problem is just too many irrelevant posts are popping up.

Hi Everyone,

I have serious problem with my Desire. I need help, I've gone thru the thread about bricked HTC Desire but my own problem seems unique in a way, below is the nature of the problem and what I've done so far:

Problem: My deisre can not boot beyond Fastboot and bootloader menu after power on. If i go to recovery, my phone could not see the SD card. My SD card can be accessed from my card reader on PC, but my phone could not see it (I have tried different cards( formatted), it is obvious the problem was not with the cards).

In fastboot mode, my laptop can connect to it via USB flawlessly, but could not get it boot.

I tried loading official RUU, no matter which version was downloaded, I'm always stuck at a stage with "error 131", something about customer ID

Is there any way to recover my desire?... with no SD recognised and unable to boot beyond bootloader with my PC?

Please I need a Pro to put me thru, maybe I'm not doing something right.

Thanks.

Go to THIS thread and have a look at how to restore SD card functionality.

Once fixed, load a rom on it and flash using your custom recovery.

This is the bit you need to get SD working again.
[Desire General] Dragooon123:
I've been observing this, under any AOSP Rom(CyanogenMod, OpenDesire etc) the Wi-Fi performs flakier than under any HTC Sense(Or a ROM with HTC Sense but Rosie removed like SuperVillain). For example, on OpenDesire after 30 minutes(Whether I'm using the phone or not) wi-fi connection would stop working even if it shows connected, and the reception is generally worse. But in HTC Roms I get a stable connection even when the signal strength is very low(Only the small dot at the bottom).

But now there is a package icon there and when I press it , it says:

Application is not installed.

So I went back to Titanium backup and tried to restore it, but I did something wrong and deleted the copy!

What do I do now?! Is it possible to replace package icon in the dockbar with Dolphin? If not I have to get browser 1.6 back, but how!?

My mother has a phone on my family plan. She got a Samsung Intercept the other day, of course I had to root it :) My wheels got turning and I realized I could have her return that phone, order a EVO and she would take my Hero. My Hero is brand new, a replacement I got 2 weeks ago. Went to the sprint site and didn't feel like spending $300 for a EVO, so I was gonna get my mother a Hero, gotta be better than the Intercept. That's when I seen the Hero still being sold for $250! What is the deal with that, the phone us dead as far as sprint is concerned. The EVO even had a $100 mail in rebate, thus making the Hero cost $50 MORE than the EVO! Crazy

Well, Sunday afternoon, wife and kids away so I went on with some icons in the sony erirsson font. When you rooted your phone and use this font as your default it looks great on your phone...nevertheless worth sharing. Here some screens in use:

​

Here are the white PNG icons in Sony Font containing the following:

Applications: GPS, Music, Pictures, Tools, Video, Weather

Homescreen: Dial, SMS, Mail, Shop, Twitter, Web

Games: Action, Arcade, Cards, Puzzle, Race, Sport

Using Smart Shortcuts you can use these icons as your folder icon and make shortcuts on your screens, when you tap them a folder opens with the chosen applications you chose making the folder in Smart Shortcuts.

If you are using Desktop Visualizer these icons are 100x100 png, they are a bit smaller in words of course as I went of the edge a bit.

They look a bit blurry on the screenshots, but that's because I cropped the screenshot png which already is a small file ofcourse. On your telephone it looks sharp as a razorblade ;-)

EDIT: The best thing is of course when your wallpaper is not scrollable (setting in ADW). For that I made 9 wallpapers which looks good with those icons. 3 like in the screenshot and another 6. Also added as attechment. They are 490x854 photo's pasted in a 960x854 background. Just swipe them to maximum and there you go:D Watch out, there are 2 nsfw pictures in it as well. Herewith an overview of all wallpapers, obviously as i explained you won't see the white parts, it is necessary to get a perfect single wallpaper (unscrollable) for all your screens. For the first two when you want to add the text icons exactly in the squares, make sure you have selected in adw settings, 5 coulomns and 6 rows, than it will fit when using smart shortcuts, this app is free from the market.

​

Cheers,

Arnold

It is very easy to install. Read the first post and it will work. If you have questions or need help, just post a reply and people will help you...that is the great thing from this community.
