Find a browser that supports Arabic.. Just don't use stock. There are some custom roms on here that actually hive you Arabic characters throughout the rom. However, of course you need to root.

This ROM, brought over from the i9000 (ported) will run arabic for sure.

if you know what you are doing, yes, you can bypass root and go into download mode and flash using odin.
I'm not sure what you mean by not rooting.
Once you flash a custom ROM, more than likely, it will be rooted.
If you want the OTA from Samsung, you will have to odin your phone back to stock froyo UCKD5 2.2.1. I think it will connect, although I have not tried it myself.

All i wanna to know the installtion of firmware with odin just like Galaxy sII
By open odin and select PDA and make my phone on download mode and click start on odin
Just that or not? Because that all i can do
I did it before with sgs2

I don't have an sgsII, so I couldn't advise you correctly.
Odin on the Infuse can be use to flash a stock firmware and kernels.
I don't think there are too many custom ROM packages that is design for flashing using Odin.
Most users here uses Odin to bring their phone back to stock when they have a problem...not to flash a custom ROM.

I'm not familiar with the Infuse international capabilities.
You can try unlocking the Infuse and run it using a local provider.

Bottom line: If your stock ROM does not support Arabic and a custom ROM supports it, you will need to change out the stock ROM.
c'est la vie, mon frere.
edit: rooting does not kill the phone.

regarding reading arabic in ur browser,u can use opera mobile,download it from the market,it'll do the trick.

[Q] Will i loose root if i update to JB from root injected ICS?

KK..like i posted before, i rooted my note using the first method. Thats is i flash a root injected ics european stock rom because i just wanted root and didnt want my count to go up. Now i want to update to jellybean via OTA. Will i loose my root? if i loose my root it means i have to use cwm recovery method, i dont want that. and there is no root injected jellybean stock rom. so please can someone tell me how to go about it? thanks

If you're rooted you can't update OTA. Simplest thing would be to install the stock rom using PC Odin and reroot using Chainfire's Exynos Abuse or just flash the rom on Mobile and Odin with root injection.

how do I do that

I suppose 3 things.
1) Search. If that's your response you don't know enough about what the risks are. Just use google. The forum isn't here to do your work for you.
2) Read. A lot. For the same reason.
3) Try saying please.
I don't want to sound like an arse but all the information you need is right here and is easy to find. It's rude to expect it of others when you can't be bothered yourself.
The thread you should start with though is probably http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2050297

4 Flash rom then radio from old recovery / new recovery (<--link).
5 Done.
PS. If you use google backup (in settings/accounts) all your phone numbers and most other settings will remain. There are other ways but i don't care about them. ds.
Finally i would like to join the crowd and say READ THE STICKIES. They exist so that you won't have to waste your own time making threads like this.
Good luck :good:

OP, I think you should stay on ics until you can get kies to work. Your going to end up losing everything on your phone at best and bricking it at worst.

I would start reading some posts in the development forum, and other specific topics on the various steps you will need to take. But...
First you will need to install a custom recovery, like clockwork mod(cwm) or twrp.
Second, you will need to find a ROM specific to your device, making sure to check your model number and only installing a ROM if it is intended for your devices model.
Third, flash the rom .zip in the previously installed recovery.
That's really all you need to do, but you should read how to take those steps in the threads for them and your device.

Just to be clear, if your gs3 has the official 4.3 on it, you CANNOT unlock the bootloader. You WILL brick your phone if you try.

I have just received a replacement phone. I have gone about the ways I rooted previously and none of them are working. This did NOT come with 4.3 from the factory, and the 4.3 update is not installed. I reverted back to stock from android recovery, so 4.0.4 is on there right now. But no matter what I do, whether it's the one click method, the GS3 toolkit format, or manually trying to gain root through recovery, nothing works. On the "downloading" screen that you need during use of ODIN, it says "SECURE CHECK FAIL", and it'll either have "boot" after it, or "kernel". Anyone have any ideas? As of this moment I have no working phone. Looking for some help asap. Thank you guys.

Try to Odin flash factory 4.1.2 and see if the secure check turn to "enabled". If it's then try to root again.

I just Odin flashed a stock 4.1.2 ROM actually. It's booting up normally now. It honestly seems like they added a layer of protection on the newly distributed handsets. I will try to go through the normal 1 click method again and see if that works. How would I check if the secure check is still enabled?
Actually, no, it's still 4.0.4 but I'm going to try the same thing just with a different 1 click method.
Looks like the really old way worked. With the ez-unlock and ez-recovery. I had to completely demolish what was there when it was sent to me, though. So anyone who gets a replacement, the best bet is to flash a fresh 4.1.2 ROM or 4.0.4 ROM immediately, boot back up and go from there.
