[Q] Arabic support for Gingerbread 2.3.4

Updating my Samsung GS2 to Gingerbread XXKG1 2.3.4 Firmware lost me the Arabic support added under 2.3.3
Is there yet Arabic support for Gingerbread 2.3.4? If not, is it advisable to restore 2.3.3?
Cheers.

Same here, I am searching for Arabic support as well.
Thanks

Arabic Support in SGS2 with Gingerbread 2.3.4
Lonexl:
If you're in a rush that you can't wait till the official release of the arabized 2.3.4 then your only choice would be to to switch to a deodexed rom (I am using Darky's ROM) - google " rom-base-sgs2-2-3-4-darkyrom2-xxkg1-base.4059 " to get it
The problem with this is that the programs/browsers that use the support library "libwebcore.so" will not be able to render Arabic correctly due to the fact that till date no one successfully compiled libwebcore.so from the webkit provided by samsung with arabic support patched in; However, firefox should work fine with stock font.
If that doesn't matter then after flashing the ROM just apply the update attached in this post using ClockWorkMod Recovery or simply upload the files framework.jar into /system/framework; libicuuc-arabic.so & libanrdoid_runtime.so into /system/lib using root explorer or any other method/tool.
Cheers.

Thanks for your reply, although neither methods worked for me, perhaps this would benefit someone else....
Clockworkmod wont work on my mobile for some reason and attempting to copy the lib and jar files did not either using rom manager (getting permission errors).
So may be I have to wait for a simple firmware that can be fired away via good old Odin.

It should be straight-forward process to get CWM you need to flash a kernel with CWM built-in. I suggest that you try "CF-Root-SGS2_XW_CLK_KF3-v4.0-CWM4.zip" from this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399
However, the one mentioned in Darky's thread "Supercore..1.0" should do anyway..
Once flashed you need to reboot your device with the three buttons down (power+home+up) to get the recovery menu. If you use that ROM you need to exercise patience as it will take a very long time to display the menu.
The stock ROM recovery will not allow you to flash the update because it's not signed by Samsung.

Thanks mate for your message. Athough i really appreciate your help must admit, I found the above message rather confusing.
"If you use that ROM (Which ROM are you referring to) you need to exercise patience as it will take a very long time to display the menu. The follow on step is not clear either.
When I installed arabic support to my SGS2 2.3.3 via one firmware & ODIN, straightforward process.... and for the non-tech "occaisional users" like yours sincerely the easiest way is to Start Odin, load firmware, click start and.... bingo.
Lookslike I will either have to wait for such firmware or search other sites.
Cheers.

SGS2 xxkg1 (european firmware): libwebcore.so with arabic shaping
I have made a patch which will enable arabic character shaping in the browser
*NOTE: This is only for Galaxy S2 with XXKG1 (2.3.4) (European Firmware – Deodexed)*
Use CWM to update using the zip file attached
*UPDATE* I have cooked a patch for SGS2 European XXKG3 (2.3.4). PM me in case you need a copy (for Deodexed Firmwares only).

brightidea,
good to see you here
you got 6 more posts to start joining us in the dev section.
Go brightidea go !!
To everybody that don't know brightidea, he's the genius that brought patched libwebcore.so (yes, in binary form) and brought us proper arabic shaping for SGS2 2.3.4 ROMs.
I'm posting your files on my thread as we speak.

Thanks MadMack - 10 posts are not easy to make when not really familiar with the platform but I am trying: )

Currently the best unofficial arabic support package is provided by brother Madmack and you should be able to get it from here http://blog.devasque.com but be warned it requires that your phone's system has been deodexed. You could use a package called xultimate to deodex your system automatically just make sure u actually use a version which employs the latest smali/baksmali (ver 1.2.8). Additionally you may just search the market for "brightidea browser arabic patch" to download the patch I built for the browser (which should be included in madmack's package anyway). Good luck.

Huawei U8860 Honor / Honour / Glory - Index

Welcome to the Huawei U8860 Honor / Honour / Glory - Index!
(please treat this thread as dev-thread, it is part of a dev-forum, not Q&A)
Please don't PM me for support, I will ignore those requests - they are just too many and I'm not getting paid for that, I'm not huawei support. Just ask your questions somewhere in the forum, but in my opinion this thread is really not the place for it, since this is a developer forum and not the Q&A section. That's why xda-developers adds restrictions to post here for new users - to prevent this to be a Q&A-Forum. Please Try to ask your questions in the appropriate Q&A-Section of the xda-developer Forum.
Different versions of the Huawei Honor
There are two feature differences that I am aware of:
Number of Touch-Points: 2 or 5; I have 2 touch-points and with B977 my ProjectMenu just printed "synaptic" as touchscreen version, with B919 it states "synaptics-TPK.6"
Position of Huawei Logo on the back: in the top-left corner (china / russia?) or in the middle like this: http://kaefert.is-a-geek.org/huawei_honor/IMG_7491_small.JPG
It seem's there are versions without a camera? at least user limzm states in his signature his U8860 doesn't have one.
Backup & Recovery
In my opinion the first and most important thing when playing around with different ROMs, is the ability to backup and restore the phones ROM & state.
For this you need a custom recovery (which you will also need to flash custom ROMs, so you might only skip this if you want to only flash stock ROMs)
If you're on an 2.3.6 ROM, then possibly for this to work, you first need to flash a different stock ROM. There have been reports that with 2.3.6 the method below may not work. Also some newer ROMs like B923 and above have locked boot loaders, the latest ICS ROM that you can use for this is B919
NEW: CWM 6.0.1.0 with touch-support: MOD EDIT: Link removed.
OLD: download recovery-u8860-en.img from here MOD EDIT: Link removed.
make sure there is no directory named "dload" on your micro-sd-card - if there is, rename or remove it.
Turn off Fast-Boot, and shutdown your phone. If you don't know how to turn off Fast-Boot, pull the battery (it can be found in different places in different ROMs)
Press and hold volume-up, volume-down and power-button at the same time.
You should now see your phones screen pink (="pink screen mode")
Now connect your phone with an USB cable to a computer
A few disks should be mounted, search for the one that has an "image" folder with an recovery.img and a boot.img inside it. rename the recovery.img to recovery-bak.img (or simular) and copy recovery-u8860-en.img there and rename it to recovery.img
WARNING: Don't use the file recovery_v8.img which is referenced in a few other guides. It crashes and leaves you with non bootable phone-states and/or with unfished backups which cannot be restored.
ROMs
Stock ROMs (& leaked stock ROMs)
Stock ROMs (or leaked stock ROMs) can be flashed like this:
Download and unpack onto your micro-SD Card like that: /mnt/sdcard/dload/UPDATE.APP (some ROMs also have UPDATE_CUST.APP, copy it to the same place. If you're update has a second dload_cust (or the like) folder, you need to flash it in a second round just as the first one, by renaming it to "dload")
Turn off Fast-Boot, and shutdown your phone. If you don't know how to turn off Fast-Boot, pull the battery (it can be found in different places in different ROMs)
Press and hold volume-up, volume-down and power-button at the same time.
If everything above was done correctly, you should be able to watch your phone upgrading now.
Alternative: Some ROMs have an option in the settings that lets you start the upgrade-procedure without step 2.) and 3.) from above. If you can find it, you can use that one.
You can find stock ROMs here:
International ROMs: http://www.huaweidevice.com/worldwide/technicaIndex.do?method=gotoProductSupport&productId=3834&tb=1

(thanks to user det-happy for pointing it out to me)
The most important Stock-ROM in my eyes (as base for most custom ROMs there are) is B919, find it here:

Root and Google-Apps for Stock ROMs
NEW: Rooting method for stock ICS B919/B923/B924 (and perhaps others older ICS)

For people running linux on their computers, I've created an adapted version of this root tool:
kaefert.is-a-geek.org/huawei_honor/HuaweiHonorRootTool_LinuxVersion.7z
OLD: Theres a nice guide explaining how to root and flash+enable google-apps here: (but don't take the recovery from there but from above. explanation also above) - only use this if the new method above doesn't work for you.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22688341&postcount=53
Custom ROMs
To flash custom ROMs:
download their .zip file and put it somewhere on your sd-card
boot into your custom recovery: turn off phone completly, then Long press volume up + power button (for installation of custom recovery see top of this post)
factory reset / wipe everything (not always necessary, but to be on the save side. Some ROMs will not work in some cases if you don't wipe first, however the other way round is also possible, there are custom ROMs that will NOT work if you wipe, best look at the instructions from where you downloaded the custom ROM..)
flash update zip -> choose zip from sd card.

WARNING: most MIUI-ROMs have SMS-confirmations turned on by default, which costs extra with many providers (like mine..) so check it before sending your first SMS and turn it off

Custom Kernels
I found a custom kernel that adds the option to overclock up to 2GHz. I'm used it running at 1.8GHz and it didn't seem to be any more unstable than before (I'm using the MIUI ROM which is a little bit instable all by itself already)
MOD EDIT: Link removed since you need to register to download the kernel, I also attached it MOD EDIT: Link removed to make it easier for you.
I also managed to build (and deploy) the 3.0.8 kernel sources provided by huawei myself, see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=23505650
With the help of the writer of rvoix I managed to adept our kernel in a way that rvoix works, but for the moment only mono so both parties mixed together in one channel (but recorded from the line, not only from the mic like most apps do). I attach the kernel that works with rvoix: View attachment boot_voc2.img.
Or for people wanting to build their kernels themselfs, here's the patch: http://code.google.com/p/rvoix/sour...pdragon/kernel/huawei_honor_u8860_rvoix.patch
UPDATE: Since our kernel sources don't work with B919 and later (non functional camera and wifi) I decided to go the other way round and modify the rvoix app to work with our kernel instead of adapting the kernel to work with the app. Here are the results: http://code.google.com/p/rvoix/downloads/detail?name=rvoix_mod_kaefert_v2.apk --> call recording that should work with all huawei honor 4.0.3 ROMs!
Various pointers
Adapting Chinese ROMs
Adding Google Apps (like the Market) --> Download zip from here http://goo-inside.me/gapps and flash it with recovery
Remove unwanted chinese system apps --> I do it with QtADB --> http://qtadb.wordpress.com/ But I guess you can also do it with some root app management apps
Change to languages that are not choosable in the standard language setting --> https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.co.c_lis.ccl.morelocale
Reading chinese sites
People who don't use google chrome or the chromium project (yet) probably don't know, that it has a really nice built-in translating feature, thats very useful for finding your way arround all these chinese (or russian) websites, and much better then using translate.google.com (or other such services) manually with other browsers.
Miscellaneous
Silent Huawei camera (ICS)
I was annoyed one day by all the noises the huawei camera simulates. Therefore I investigated and found out how to make it silent.

Hi guys.
I've just cleaned this thread and would like to remind everyone about some points, so that they're not repeated in the future, and explain all the missing links you may notice.
Warez is strictly forbidden on XDA. Please do not link to websites that provide it, or to ROMs that contain pirated apps.
Kernels are licensed under the GPL. This means that the kernel's source should be provided. If it is not, it's illegal and will be treated as warez as far as XDA is concerned. In simpler terms: if you're posting a link to a ROM that contains a kernel, or a kernel, make sure the kernel's source is available and link to it as well.
Recoveries that aren't based on stock and that use a zImage (which is covered by the GPL) must also be provided along with the source.
Links to competing or commercial websites are not allowed. Links to websites that require registration to access downloads are also not allowed (there are exceptions, please see rule #11 for more info.)
Credits must be given, and you must have permission to share the work. Assuming that you do: if this goes against the point above, you may mention the member/website without linking directly to his work. Point #2 still applies - a link to the kernel's source must be provided if necessary.
I realize this may have caused links to your favorite custom ROMs to be removed, and I apologize about that. Many of you clearly put a lot of effort into building, maintaining and helping with this index. However, all posts must respect the rules first and foremost.
Please PM me if you have any questions or if you need further clarification.
Thanks for understanding.

Hey thanks so much for helping with this. I followed your guides and managed to get my Honor rooted and on an ICS version. Thanks so much.

Well, I've been using it for 2 days now. I wouldn't call it stable, it has some rough edges, sometimes some system app crashes (like in the beginning I had a problem with the SMS-app), and I've had 2 complete system crashes (forced reboot) while running oruxmaps for navigation & gps-logging with my byclicle.

Check with you, if i installed the custom recovery, and root, can i revert back to stock by flashing via the settings menu or the vol/power button combination and stock rom in load directory?

Well the settings menue doesn't contain the huawei upgrade option in every ROM (for example not in the MUIU ROM), but the volumn up+down while booting will probably work, I haven't tried though. The upgrade directory however has to be call "dload", not "load".
To revert back to a previous ROM I find it much better to use the nandroid backup and recover options that every recovery image I saw yet contains. However be careful, the recovery-v8.img posted on some other places is instable and crashes before the backup is finished. you won't be able to recover such an incomplete backup. Always check if you have some backup complete message, it should NOT reboot automatically after making a backup.

What is in MIUI rom better than the official rom that you like?

Well the MIUI ROM has much more configuration options, for example you have a statusbar settings page where you can choose between default battery icon, percentage number or the top pixel row in green. Or also the MIUI theme chooser is really nice.
Another useful thing is the permission manager thats included that (if you config it that way) asks you whenever an app tries to use a permission that its defined to require. for example if you have an app that has the permission to send sms then the permission manager will ask you the first time that the app really sends an sms if you want to allow or deny it, and also if you want to save your choice or if it should ask next time again.

Hmm. Well the only ideas I have:
1.) Theres a 2G+3G / 2G only switch, in the MIUI ROM I linked in my first post you can reach it like this:
Home Screen --> Settings --> More... (4th point under the heading Wireless & Networks) --> Mobile Networks --> Only 2G-Networks
If that switch is on, than obviously your phone won't connect to a 3G network
2.) Your not in range of a 3G network?

Apparently there is bootloop issue for the newly released MIUI ROM 2.3.23 over at MOD EDIT: Link removed.
My experience is that I got stuck at the splashscreen as well.
I have download another at MIUI main site : MOD EDIT: Link removed.
and it works OK. Some portions of the UI are with Chinese texts and a few Chinese apps but overall still OK.

The ROMs that I know of and that I've tried you find in the first post. I found the loader (=desktop) of the non-MIUI ROMs to be faster and snappier. (However, the MIUI is more feature-rich)

Okay thanks alot I think I'm gonna give MIUI a try. Downloaded the latest version from the MIUI website. Have you tried any CM Release?

Hello,
My rom already has a theme party!
And I do not know Kalagas.........

OK, dont be angry I am just asking.
I will try for shure this rom.Could you please tell me the GPU clock...is it possibble to OC it too ? What is default GPU clock ?
The only reason I am asking you for other theme is because i dont like the icons down in trey. They look like before 100 years BC.
We are talking abot this so you could make more if is it possibble better rom ( visual look ) I didnt mean nothig else and nothing bad !
:good:

[Q] porting

Dear all,
I want help of you please
i am not developer i want to know only below points
1. we can port different devices rom to our device which having same chipset
2. we can port other devices rom to our e.g. samsung galaxy s4
3. if i want to make rom from scrap then any tutorial available
Please revert
i am not a developer
i want to develop something for my galaxy r becuase i dont want to loose it for some softwares

AFAIK
1. Yes
2. Yes if 1 holds. (correct me if i'm wrong)
3. this will help if you are certain to contribute towards development.
Hope it helps..!

1. Yes. The only one reasonable enough would be O2X. I tried it, but it didn't work. It uses really different nVidia libs.
2. Yes, just look at the XWLSD port. But you can't replace all libs because of the lack of NEON support. Also pay attention to the screen resolution. You will have a massive work with resizing if porting from the GS4.
3. There are many, just look into general Android dev forums, but most of them isn't applicable to the SGR.
(What Nikhil provided is a really great and huge article, hats off to the writer, but it's about application development and not porting.)

you need to use Linux Operating system for these things because it will be easy on Linux and then you can use the file which you will use in ODIN and extract system files from it using the link given above ..

1. Use these Guides.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1742618
2. I am not sure how to do.
3 & 4 need to build your own Custom Kernel using the sources (if some thing goes wrong you will brick your device).
5. Just delete from System Folder.

+ for you, because i think it's good idea to make such post for others, even, if it's subjective.
Which screen driver do you have(rommakers usually are skipping this bit of information, but it may be really useful for SOME users)?
btw, i agree, that liq is best of kk roms, but...it has some..well, issues.

Good job, and my respect is even bigger knowing that you are young fellow, non english native speaker...
Wish you enough will to continue and expand your little project, although i think your tests should last bit longer (for now it's more like first impressions).
And i don't think that Roms you pointed as non-working really don't work, people would mention about it...
Anyway, good job, once again

I said that dont work on my decive... This roms yes work but its more difficult to install them because you need to flas first the specifik stock rom that they're based and on my pc odin doesn't work (400 mhz and 128 mb of ram =) ) it's too old.
If you test them you can send to me your opinions and add them as working and tested roms.
Thanks

You must upgrade your phone to 4.1.2
then you must use a tempory CMW, and flash your rom to your phone
sorry for my bad english

The best form me is CM11 from TC, but in the new build you should checge minimal fraq to 200mH because of 100mH battery drain.

I'm using 4.4.4 from novafusion.pl. Very good, no problems with phone.

Great idea to have a central place for people to find ROMs. No doubt, CM is always a good choice but if you like pure Android I can also recommend this AOSP ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588054
