Here is something I put together to enable arabic on any device without changing any linked library in /system/lib which means it'll work cross-devices. This means that your android will be able to connect arabic letters properly to enable read/writing. Note: this will enable shaping for all android menu's and for writing, this will not fix the browser's problem. for that, we need to compile individual libwebcore.so files for each ROM. so we're out of luck there. You can get Persian Browser or the new Firefox browser to fix this problem.
Requirements:
1. your rom has to be deodexed. (if you have /system/framework/framework.odex, this will NOT work).
2. you must be rooted !
3. your android must be version 2.2, 2.2.1 or 2.3 (not tested on 2.3 yet but should work).
Steps:
1. Pull framework.jar from your phone's /system/framework
1. Download the file from the following link:
http://blog.devasque.com/?page_id=11
2. Extract it somewhere
3. Put your phone's framework.jar inside of the extracted folder's framework folder.
4. Click on commands.exe and wait ! eventually you'll get a framework.jar inside subfolder "generated". copy that back to your phone in /system/framework and restart.
Note: if you get a bunch of FCs after restarting, you'll need to factory reset your device.
this should work. It was tested successfully on a bunch of deodexed roms for the samsung galaxy S, and two roms on the G2.
Credits:
I got the script files from iAndroid, a hebrew patching thread that does something very similar to what this does. so hats off to the great minds over there.
The arabic patching files were compiled from source from Y6b's github. So thanks to his great work as well.
Finally arabic is supported across all devices.
hi madmack ! thank a lot
this is a very useful thread.
i test it on deodexed galaxy s (wxJS5 rom) and it worked almost flawlessly.now i have some question. please help me. you are only guy i know to answer these questions.this patch (mod) has some problem to render persian/farsi characters correctly.i am a java programmer and can edit java files and fix this errors.the only problem i face is : how can i apply my modification and (re)compile the source again ? because this files (framework.jar) are in java , can i use eclipse IDE to compile ? i already made and developed some programs and aaps for android os using eclipse . please if you have any ( just any ) information , please help me . again i have no any source and reference to ask these question .this is not a first time for me to ask a guy this question but nobody yet give me useful answer .

hey hamedpc. didn't think i would get any reply anytime soon here, lol.
you'll need to learn how to compile android from source, then apply patches etc.. this is not something i am willing or able to discuss on a reply post here so you got some research to do before you can attempt that.
anyways, if you want to know which files you should look into, simply look at the subfolder "files/froyo" and look at all the .smali files. Then, find the equivalent in the android source but they should be .java. These are the files that are patched.
sorry for not being more helpful
so if i have framework.odex should i just delete it and move on?

you can't do that. you'll need to get a deodexed ROM or google around for how to deodex it yourself.

I use an I9000, so not sure what options you guys have for the Epic.
But I'm pretty sure that a lot of custom roms are out there that are (1) Froyo and (2) deodexed. Almost all custom roms are deodexed.
this isnt working on the epic. i did everything was suppose to be done.
i have arabic but the letters are disconnected. which is nothing new from froyo update.
am i doing anything wrong?

Yea, most likely you are.
It really should work with all 2.2 and 2.2.1 roms. specially the samsung ones. I tried it on JS3, Darky's, JS5 and Doc's ROM for the I9000 and it works.
Just make sure you got a deodexed rom. (no framework.odex file), and also verify that the generated framework.jar is actually bigger than the original framework.jar by about 1MB. (sometimes the process stalls for some reason, so you'll have to redo it if the size is not bigger by 1MB).
im using this rom . http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=963845
and it is deodexed.
it shows the letters but they arent connected. just like how i was before doing all this.
And yes the size was larger.
i would love if u can pm me ur yahoo or something so we can go over it.. if i get this thing working, my phone would be PERFECT!!
and thanks for ur quick responses!
bro nevermind!
i wasnt enabled root access for my file manager, thats y i wasnt able to paste the net .jar file.
it works great!! i love u to death.. no homo lol
but i noticed FB is kinda laggy when theres arabic letters.
just saying.. dont really care.

this is probably why you couldn't get it working on your device.
this topic is a little advance, and i really don't recommend applying it if you're not familiar with rooting, replacing system files and recovery.
there are many steps you need to learn to be able to apply this patch, which is beyond the topic of this thread. sorry but I can't help you with that.

unfortunately not. these .so libraries require recompiling of the source code.
the patch for libwebcore is up on my github account (same nickname). If you get your hands on your source code for the webcore libraries. Then you can try the patch yourself
I've already patched libwebcore.so for a 2.2.1 ROM for the Galaxy S I9000. It worked pretty well.
that was quick

So this is the Avabox. original title i know
I put this to together back with the hero during some hard forums times in order to push further development with customizations. and it worked.
so here it is for the Evo devs. I set it up for windows but of course perl scripts run in linux so its universal. But if you want to learn/work on some customizations for the evo but you dont wanna dual boot linux or w/e here is something for you.
im hoping to see some good things soon any issues with this just comment or pm. good luck.

its a compilation of scripts for windows to cook a rom and create/modify/extract/compile/unzip/deodex/sign/everything android 1.5 and up.
works with linux too.
Good timing. I'm here trying to remove yxplayer's trial / 2min time limit. Managed to decompile, edited smali files, recompile, sign. So far so good, worked as expected (re-mapping various functions to different buttons). Now gotta hunt down the code which actually triggers that 2min play limit, and with some luck, maybe the whole validate-the-serial-number routine
PS: was using only APKTool & Auto-Sign. Will check out the tools in Avabox and see if they will be useful.
This includes the installer for 64-bit ActivePerl. Here's the link for the 32-bit installer in case anyone needs it: http://downloads.activestate.com/Ac...ActivePerl-5.10.1.1007-MSWin32-x86-291969.msi
bump for life.
maybe a bump maybe not this is awesome is this the latest version? Oh stupid question? Someones gonna ask. this is great for unpacking boot.img signing zips everything to make your own rom. Wow even has a deodexer
This package is literally everything you need to make your own custom rom. So use it.
Thank you so much

I'm a noob, so please forgive me. I am not sure about the BOOTCLASSPATH. I am trying to deodex htcmailwidgets.apk. I know there are already deodexed ones out there, but I wanted to deodex the one from the legend (it has a couple of options for the widget which are not able to be done with the standard mail widget) to use on my hero without changing to the Legend ROM. Hope that makes sense.

I may have completely misread the OP, and forgive me if I did, but aren't there supposed to perl scripts in the package that would allow me to use this in Linux? I am not seeing anything but .exe and .bat files. I dont use Windows, and wouldnt trust wine to do development work. Is there another version of this floating around I can use?
Edit: I found the code repository http://code.google.com/p/smali/

This is a guide to port rom..........
lots of people ask... how do you port roms... so here you go... I hope now the thread is started the people posting can help each other .
here is all the basics on getting a bootable miui rom for beginners.. first download the formels newest release.
then download a stable gingerbread 2.3.3 version that is compatible with the files. ( I always use the great z and j for sources).
the next step is to get the formels rom ready by deleting the boot image and the data folder. Next step is to go to the etc folder and delete firmware folder... also delete ap2sd init script from the init folder)
then go to lib folder and delete hw and modules.
now it is time to add files. I know the miui files pretty good now so the list has shortened greatly.
now use your stable gb rom source to replace the folders I had you delet above
you may have to change other files depending on the rom i.e. bluetooth/dhcpd and others.
to start in the etc folder you need to add
apns-conf
dbus
dualmic
gps
hosts
hw-config
init.bt
init.gold
init.local
mediaprofiles
mke2fs
profile
resolve
sensors
sysctl
vold
now to the lib folder all files start with lib
cm
dll
dsm
dss
gsl
miscta
oem-rapi
pbmilb
qmi
diag
mmgsdilib
nv
onrpc
queue
ril-qc-1
wms
auth
sdi-exp
wmsts
mmipl
oemcamera
mmjpeg
there are other files but I think that is enough to get bootscreen... if not let me know and I will list the other misc ones.
now the bin files
akmd2
am
bmgr
bmiloader
chargemon
charger
compache
eeprom
fixpermisions
gdbserver
handlecompache
hciqcomminit
ime
input
monkey
pm
port-bridge
qmuxd
recevent
svc
sysinit
updatemiscta
wlanmac
wlantool

Why still dont works?, because we need your help, but ROM Manager part it's ready
1. Edit this lines on build.prop, for all ROMS that you want be recognized
ro.build.id= -> Only double number here, should correspond with rom manager format (please not GRJ22 or v1.4.5.1, that will make ROM Manager throw error)
ro.modversion= -> The same name that rom have on ROM Manager repo, no spaces Please
2. Also we need repo list, you can generate with this tool, if you need help, tell me
REPO FORMAT:
romname(should be the same from ro.modversion, with no spaces);directUrl;Changelog:, ,separed,by,commas,without,*,or,-, ,Author(not by bla, only author name);MD5;lastVersion;itsHotfix?*
*We have too hotfix repo, if itsHotfix==true, then ROM Manager, will get download link from another repo, format it's more easy, just hotfixDirectURL;MD5;NeededVersion, so if rommanager main list, have 5 roms, hotfix repo, have 5 urls, if rom dont have hotfix, you can write just null, or anything, like a placeholder
Please give us all the feedback you can!

dude i am just suggesting so that it becomes slightly easier to get it working... every rom dev has different naming/numbering style... u cant control that... what u can do is to make ur program work with all possible styles...
also i am not sure many devs will appreciate making changes to build.prop...

Wow you see what you're saying .. making it compatible with ALL possible styles. That's insane :/, as you said, every ROM dev has different style, so will be impossible to get all the ways, so that's why we make unifications , we have unified chargemon, easy-to identify roms, etc. It's just hard, think on this, ROM manager checks doubles from some rom, but how can we check the version, on a ROM, called GRJ22, and the same name on all versions?, how would ROM manager recognize that there's a new version?. it's not so hard for devs, just change 2 things on build.prop, im sure you do it all time for some tweaking or testing

I dont think a unified chargemon is possible as diffrent ones are used between 2.1 ,2.2 ,2.3, and miui roms also using a custom kernel or not makes it even more complicated

It's not needed unified chargemon that's just an example, i just need devs to mod a little bit build.prop, it's not hard
Sorry for double post, but this is nice idea:
Just got a idea, about making your chargemon unified, i mean, the basic part of chargemon, inside it, and the kernel addons, and all that things, inside a external .sh on system\bin folder, so ROM Manager, can easily detect / mod chargemon, and your kernel dont get affected

dude if we work on my kernel manager idea we dont need to worry abt chargemon at ALL! we will use our own chargemon/recovery pack!
lets start it please!
x10 needs a Kernel Manager app!!!

Hey guys,
One of the experienced Devs please tell me whether a .apk pulled through ADB from the /system/app folder of a HTC Incredible be ported/edited to install on our I9003
I've pushed the .apk to the /system/app folder on my I9003 and tried to run the file but it say, Application not installed
If this can be done then I will update the .apk for you to help us with it.
Thank you.
What apk is it? Some widget? Some program? Because HTC widgets and programs require their proprietary HTC sense framework! We have our touch wiz framework!

there is a tvout.apk and tvout.odex on the 1st page of that thread and libtvout.so on the 3rd page
these are from the htc incredible
is porting to our devices possible for these files ??
HTC Incredible does TV OUT from the micro USB, so I found out the cable for it too

hmm lets hope dats wat we can do all for now ..
need some serious help from the serious developers ..
Its a complex thing and I "personally feel" that the source codes are not exactly upto the level required for compiling just the right thing.....
Also apk files won't work that are from HTC's proprietary sense framework ... plus a perfectly working kernel with complete support for TV out!!
I did check out the links that you gave me but nothing worked...
Our only hope is developers and maybe a bit more "fresher" (not sure of this) gingerbread source codes...

Firstly, we need to deodex it. Then we can decompile it, edit it to our needs, and recompile it (using apk manager). Still, this needs to have pointers to specific libraries and kernel instructions (such as overlay and display). This is all just theory though, can't test it till I'm back at my computer.

Please do look in to this as soon as convenient and revert, we wud love to know how it turns out and whether the theory can be put in to practice
Thank you.
All the work to make the Deodexed.zip of your rom is done to your Windows PC.
Open the Deodexer-Tool.zip you have just download.
Extract the Deodexer-Tool folder to your Desktop or anywhere you whant.
Open the folder Deodexer-Tool you just extract and follow option 1 or 2.
You have two option's:
1.) Connect your phone to pc and run the Deodexer_from_phone.bat whait ....... and you will see a Deodexed.zip and zipaligned ready to flash zip.
-----------------------------------
2.) If you have allready dumped odexed rom and you whant to deodex just put all the .apk's and .odex files from your dumped rom system\app to \Deodexer-Tool\Work\app and all the .jar's and the two framework apk's from your dumped rom system\framework to Deodexer-Tool\Work\framework and run the Deodexer_dumped_rom.bat whait ....... and you will see a Deodexed.zip and zipaligned ready to flash zip.
(If you whant an app like SuperSU.apk to be in your rom then add that to Work\app folder before run the Deodexer_dumped_rom.bat).
-----------------------------------

At the option 1 the script will dump and deodex every app you have at that time in your system/app phone folder.
Doesn't matter if is allready deodexed, the script just ignore deodexed .apk's but it will add to the zip at the end.
The option 2 is same but the script doesn't dump anything from your phone. It is only look what you add at the specificate folder's: Deodexer-Tool\Work\app & framework.
Try it and waiting for your news.

Ok I am alittle confused with this all I want to do is Deodex and zipalign my I9305 rom which i am currently running, I have removed unwanted system apps etc Now where to i put the deodexer_from__phone.bat so i can run it? does it have to be in a special folder or can i just dump it on my ext-sd card and run the bat from windows? What software is being used to deodex the apks, I am new to this developing side of things an explanation for a dummy would be great as i want to learn these things but you dont have to just instruct me and that will do if your busy thanks

Open the Deodexer-Tool.zip you have just download.
Extract the Deodexer-Tool folder to your Desktop or anywhere you whant.
Open the folder Deodexer-Tool you just extract and follow option 1 or 2 from OP.

Is there a possibility that we can get something to to the zip-align and deodex without having to move files to and from your mobile and windows. Only cause it seems alittle messy for the everyday user loool I mean i would probably be able to do it but i just dont want to miss anything or do something wrong.
Actually I have an Idea I am going to install the Rom you made then just restore my appz what you think that would be the easiest way right?
Thanks Alot.Need this tool very much .

Will this delete my user apps? Or just replace and add any missing system apps

No isn't possible to deodex and zipalign without move the file's to your pc atm.
You dont have to restore any of your app's after install any of this.

The only think it will be deleted and replaced is the system/app and system/framework.
Non of your app's will be deleted.
Please before do anything make a backup of your rom with CWM so if anything goes wrong you can restore that.
Thank's
Great work ausdim. I've modified your script slightly since I have tools that can extract the .tar.md5 > system.img > system.ext4.img > app/framework folder.
If you need those tools, you can give me a shoutout too - so that you save your time from flashing the device and adb pull it

Hey there....
Thanks for this post, and file.I'm running CleanROM 2.5 on an Asus 300T tablet. CleanROM is an odex ROM, but theres a script I'd like to run that works on deodexed. My question is, when I connect my tablet, am I going into USB mode, or just connect the tablet as if I'm transferring files, such as music.
Thanks for your help in advance.

You need adb enabled on your phone and the drivers on your pc.
we need our own general and q&a thread. I dont like the fact that we have to post in amongst i9300 threads. Can we all ask the mods this? The more of uz the better.

It's a great idea. It'll help to keep the OP leaner. You could also come up w/ a small FAQ that's posted on the OP to help cut down on answering repetitive questions. And if someone does ask a question that's already covered, just point them to the FAQ.
May also want to go into some detail about how to run this on the OP. Not everyone is a developer. You'd be amazed at how many people are mail room clerks, secretaries, managers, work in construction or food service. So, their knowledge is not at all on the same level. They just want to personalize their phone or tablet and be on their way w/o having to get a degree from ITT Tech to do it
Thank you for letting me post. I'm sure I'll have a question or 2 more in the near future. Thank you again.
