Help needed to use tamil fonts - HTC Pico (Explorer)

I'm in mini cm9 build 4, I have tried to get support for tamil fonts..
I tried an app from play store (tamil unicode font) , It didn't work for me
I tried to copy DroidsansTamil-Bold.ttf and DroidsansTamil-Regular.ttf to system/fonts and I added lines with the same format at fallback_fonts.xml found at system/etc
But still no luck..?

I have searched xda and found this http://goo.gl/IbMy8
Can any dev help this out? I have no pc to even try it..
And I googled and found this http://goo.gl/n8Pgf
That is Cm9 source code changes to get complex script rendering in webkit of android.. Any idea..?

Isn't it possible to get complex script rendering properly on cm9? We can type it with keyboards but unlike cm10 why cm9 lacks font rendering? Isn't it possible to get working?

we can get tamil support in cm9 too but it needs a lot of editing and adding even if we add the font we cant get the tamil dictionary (word suggestion)

I have added the fonts and I have edited fallback_fonts.xml
Fonts are appearing but they are not rendered properly. What else needed to be edited? Can you explain how?

Rebuild font pack in G1?

Can anyone know how to rebuiid fonts in G1 so that we can read Unicode perfectly. In fact, I'm using Vietnamese and my language has some letters like à, á, â, ừ, ă, đ,... Now that when I browse web which use Vietnamese, I just only can see the rectangle characters instead of those above.
I found out that in the system directory there has font. And I don't know how to replace those fonts with the Unicode one.
Any ideas for this problem?
You can use my modified update :
http://www.4shared.com/file/78879606/a6450d7b/update.html
I modified it to support multi-language
Can this pack fully support Unicode? Do you base on JF1.3 firmware?

Yes, It fully support Unicode and you can upgrade it to see Vietnamese websites. I have upgraded on my G1 and it's okay.
i've done it for hebrew - you can do it too
it's quite simple, all you have to do is replace the fonts in the fonts directory (only droid sans and droid sans bold) with fonts that you know have your language, after you replace these fonts (and rename them of course) you have to re-sign the update.zip file and update with it as you would with jfv1.3
so to recap:
open the jfv zip
navigate to fonts directory
delete droid sans and droid sans bold
copy your own (and rename them accordingly)
re-pack the file
sign it with apk sign and the recovery image's key
update it
really simple

Thanks for your Firmware Funbacon and thanks for the guide to cook firmware with my language fonts by eladkatz
Hebrew Support
Elad,
Thanks so much for your post. I'm a bit at a loss, though---
Where did you get the fonts for hebrew? From the SDK? And if you get them, and have root, why can't you just replace the ones already on the phone?
Also, is there any guides that you know of that would help me compile and sign my own modified rc30?
Thanks
Shalom, here and there...

Ah I found this sticky on repacking boot images... so that's good. But I would really like to replace my fonts directory... although i have a feeling it needs to be compiled.
Also, do you still have your modified hebrew rc30? thanks
I repacked update.zip with my own fonts but when it goes to verify the package, I get an error,
EDIT: Never mind I had signed the update incorrectly. Thanks for the initial instructions though.

I thought I answered you on Android Community forums. The instructions and Hebrew RC30 update can be found on iandroid.co.il forums.
I looked through them, and was unsuccessful. The posted rc30 mod there is no longer available, for one thing. Also I really wanted to know if uploading JF's rc30 would reverse their changes.

Hi Thanks to Funbacon and JF for R30 v1.41, I just modified it to include the unicode fonts originaly was in v1.3 (Funbacon post). Please download it and rename to update.zip and following instruction from JF v1.41 update.
http://www.hoadam.net/jf141_unicode.zip
This version will let you use Multi Touch with unicode, not sure other languages but Vietnamese language looks fine. This also give you auto rotate for the browser as well.

It will let you read/view websites with foreign characters. If you don't need then just use the original jk v1.41.
Well I have been having issues with hebrew fonts... is it necessary to use a unicode rc30 mod in order to get the fonts to work correctly? perhaps that explains why my formatting is all weird with the new fonts... either way the above mentioned update does not work...

I doubt it. I've read here that even if you install a font that supports arabic, letters are shown as not connected in a word. From what I understand, cupcake update 1.5 should support arabic, however this was not mentioned in the roadmap but was mentioned in articles discussing the leaked cupcake images.

URDU Reading/Writing Patch for HTC Sensation (Paki users)

Long time I searched to find a Solution to Writing and Reading Urdu Messages for HTC Sensation.. HTC mobiles dont include Urdu although Samsung does..
I almost made it possible with Thanks from baadnewz Arabic patch. Thus this Patch includes Arabic Fonts too.
I know most of you will say we can Write URDU but when u r actually writing it, its infact Arabic form.. Many letters dont work correctly..
(Tested on Sense 3.5; Not yet on 3.0.. If Someone with 3.0 can test and let me know if it works for him)
Here is a Simple Guide on how to do it:
A) Download URDU_Patch_HTC_Pyramid.zip and flash via Recovery and Reboot. (First Boot may take Long)
B) Download MultiLing from Market
C) Then Download Urdu Plugin Pakistani
D) Open MultiLing . Follow Steps in Main screen
1. Enable Multiling > Check Mark Multiling
4. Enable Languages > Leave Tick on Only English and Urdu. remove ticks from All others
When writing message, Long press Editing Area to Select Input method. Choose MultiLing. Swipe Spacebar in Keyboard to change Language..
Now you can Type Urdu in Correct fonts...
Will Hopefully Port for Other HTC Devices...
Hit THANKS if it Helped...

Well you may know swype is a keyboard, a well known, as far as reading is concerned, you have posted proper patch for it, and yeah this arabic swype has pure urdu alphabets, you have to disable word suggesstions, auto-correct etc...and thats it, check your pm...good luck.

I got what u mean now.. Maybe RCMIX has include URDU Fonts by default otherwise you won't see exactly how URDU is written.. it will be in Arabic Form..
Below is a ScreenShot of InsertCoin WITH RTL Arabic Patch Installed and Asian Swype Keyboard.. I think ASAIN Swype keyboard is not meant for qHD Screen of Sensation ... We want bigger one.. In screenshot u can see "Kaf" is typed as "Gaf" and fonts are also not very good in joining... its more Arabic Like
"Yar Pakistan main tamatar kay kya rate hain"
Now See Below after you install my URDU Patch in OP, the Fonts make Sense and is more URDU like.. and the "Kaf" is correctly written..
Now Check Below, the MultiLing Keyboard which I like for its size and comfortability... It supports Urdu Dictionary too...
Hope that clears some part of it...

It means with your patch it makes no difference between the accuracy of Swype with rcmix, and using multiling with insertcoin, but in my opinion the conclusion is for great urdu writing experience we need insertcoin+your patch+arabic swype...i hope you'll agree wiyh me, in your rom with multiling, the wordd "hay" and "bari yay" are seperated and same happening with swype in rcmix, but you can see the difference on your screenshot where youare using your patch + swype, it'll look more accurate...hope i have clearify.you properly
I ported those fonts and library files from Samsung mobile... luckily worked here.. Didn't know RCMix has it already... But most Roms here don't have Urdu fonts even after applying RTL patch...

I took fonts from here..

And merged with RTL Arabic patch from here
www.mediafire.com/?le00tcvd7mabaob
And Simply copied all fonts from Samsung patch and overwrite the one in Arabic patch...
Main font file was DroidSansArabic.ttf...
I suggest you overwrite this font file only if you already have RTL and Arabic patch installed in your ROM...
If that doesn't help then download my patch and delete the phone Model ID detection line from updater script and flash in your mobile with same GB version...

Please share the fonts as multiupload & such sites are dead now
For your information. All RTL patches are based on Madmack's Android Arabic shaping patch. You can apply it to any device (deodexed).

That's some nice info... But problem is not getting Arabic patch... It's actually getting Urdu fonts to work on it ..
Arabic is not Urdu although it matches 80% characters with Urdu... The remaining 20% are spelled wrong as it's missing Urdu fonts...
My patch just fixes those fonts making it compatible for both Urdu and Arabic at the same time...

[HOWTO] Add Languages To Samsung Keyboard / Port Swype

this is my first tutorial, i hope i can explain everything good enough
today i will tell you, how you can add more languages to samsung keyboard.
and how you can port swype to every rom.
needed files:
in folder /system/app from the latest official firmware
AxT9IME.apk (& AxT9IME.odex*)
in folder /system/etc/permissions from the latest official firmware
touchwiz.xml
in folder /system/lib from the latest official firmware
libdhwr.so
libXt9core.so
only if you want to port swype, these files:
in folder /system/app from the latest official firmware
Swype.apk (& Swype.odex*)
in folder /system/lib from the latest official firmware
libSwypeCore.so
----------
now let's start:
1. replace/add all needed files in your rom
2. you can find the languages you want to add to samsung keyboard in the folder /system/t9db
you will need 3 different files for one language.
for example:
to add german language in your rom, you need these 3 files:
phonepad_de.kdb
qwerty_de.kdb
Samsung_400_DEusUN_xt9.ldb
add the language you want to use to /system/t9db in your rom
3. there is a need to add all languages (acronyms) you can find in your new /system/t9db
to others.xml ( /system/csc )
for example:
the code in others.xml for english (en), german (de), french (fr), italian (it)
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<CustomerData>
<SettingsData>
<AudibleTouchTones>off</AudibleTouchTones>
<AudibleSelection>off</AudibleSelection>
<HapticFeedback>0</HapticFeedback>
</SettingsData>
<SamsungKeypad>
<inputlist>[COLOR="DarkBlue"][B]en(UK);en(US);de;fr;it;[/B][/COLOR]</inputlist>
</SamsungKeypad>
</CustomerData>
open /system/CSCFiles.txt
remove all lines with /system/T9DB/*
your cscfiles.txt should look similar like this:
Code:
/system/lib/libSwypeCore.so
/system/csc/contents.db
/system/csc/others.xml
/system/csc/feature.xml
/system/csc/sales_code.dat
/system/csc/customer.xml
/system/SW_Configuration.xml
/system/app/Swype.apk
/system/CSCFiles.txt
---------
thats all.
don't forget to set permissions.. clear dalvik and cache, reboot and write in your favorite language ​
nice work will try .

so i have to add some more instructions to post#1

if it is not working to port, i will try to fix it. if we can't port it, i will change the how-to to the simple "add languages"
maybe i will add a how to for adding languages to swype, but everybody can download the latest beta of swype on the website with much more included languages.
Dear texten.
I really did a deep study on this and i already done the things you mentiond.
However I have 2 problems.
1- the slide to change input langueges doesnt work.
2- arabic letters are not configured properly. It may due to font

I really tried to port arabic languages from 2.5 to European Rom such us KQB. Took those files you mentioned + the whole csc folder + t9db + patched framework with araboc patch, but I failed

edit: when i have more time, i will try this with cm9
well, i tried to port samsung keyboard to cm7.
there are much more changes needed as i thought.
so, i decided to change this tutorial.
maybe i will make a new thread only for "how to port samsung keyboard".
I've tried to port Samsung keyboard from 2.3 to CM9, it worked, but without xt9. Only QWERTY. On 3x4 layout I was able to type only numbers and symbols. When I've entered users' dictionary, it gave me FC. Logcat said language error. Don't have txt file at the moment.

Hate the keyboards which need full internet access, be aware that they may steal your passwords.
So to port swype is to just take those two files mentioned above and put it in any rom right? and will it work on cm9/cm10?

adding tamil fonts

hi guys i want tamil font for my pico plz give some solution:crying:
Come on dude.. you know you'll have to give details.... like, which Rom you're using and etc etc...
btw, I think all stock RoMs support perfect Indian languages(you'll have to update it)...
If you're talking about custom roms ,then it's not possible fully as far as I know..
Because all Indian languages use complex scripts.. two letters to make one.. etc. Etc..
All cyanogen roms do have your language support, but you will not have proper rendering... you'll know what I mean, if you install it and see...
Some expert advice.....
use fonts in apps (tamil km,unpack it and take fonts out) and rename it to any name and put it in system/fonts
And then make the necessary changes in system/etc/fall_back fonts. xml..
Google it dude..
And even if you do all of this, you won't have proper rendering (conjuncts, grammar mistakes etc etc)...
For full rendering, you'll have to modify libskia.so and framework.jar... dev's work... anyone can become a dev now...
Try xda-university. Com

Works perfectly on jelly bean v3 Rom by bhargz for a similar language.
Will work for your language too.

[Font] How to change Persian / Arabic Font in Note3

Hello everyone !
I'm going to tell you how to change Persian or Arabic fonts in beloved Galaxy Note3!!
First of all you need to have Root access , with a simple search in forums you can findout how to Root.
Then you got to install "Root Explorer " or any file manager you know how to work with and gives you system file access .
Now download any font you like or copy from your C:windows/font folder to your SD card and rename it to GS45_Arab_AndroidOS.ttf the font file must be in ttf format itself, which all are in.
Next go to Root/system/fonts and change the font file with name GS45_Arab_AndroidOS.ttf to GS45_Arab_AndroidOS2.ttf or anything so when you regret changing your font you have the original one lol .
However, copy your new GS45_Arab_AndroidOS.ttf this folder.
TADA you just have changed your FONT !! :victory:
or just install fontchanger and change it in advanced mode......TADA
One of the problems in changing the font for me as bilingual user is finding a good font that has good combination of fonts in single file !
You'll get one of the language's font is good and the other would, most probably, suck !
But thanks for the OP, Windows fonts are mostly good for both langs !
Well, you always can find nice English fonts in market for flipfont but they usually change your English font and keep your Arabic/Persian font same as default. But with this method you can change the default Arabic/Persian font as you want then use other fonts for yur flipfont.
Tho you always can mess with system font folder and change anything you want but don't forget to make a backup before anything.
And as for third party apps to do this um I don't know its just more fun to do such things manual !!
Sent from my SM-N9005 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Works like a charm
this is EXACTLY what I was looking for for a long time.
this method changes the font EVERYWHERE. font changing applications only change the font in system and most of the apps stay the same (for arabic only)
thank you
---------- Post added at 07:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:13 PM ----------
now is there a way to make a combined font style to change both English and arabic fonts? combined or changing each alone?
or to make the question more clear, which font I should replace to change the english too?
because if I change it from the settings it will change the arabic too
