Yes, but has the same problem if there's Numbers English letters and Arabic in the same line, like twitter app!
the words alignment goes wrong!.

Can you fix this Madmack via patch later?

BTW: sham on Google

looks like i won't be retiring this patch anytime soon, lol.

this shouldn't be a problem. I'm not sure it'll warrant a whole new patch though.

Its probably just a little framework.jar tweak without the need to modify the rest. I'll see what I can do

wow, what keyboard is that?

it doesn't like my custom fonts. you'll need to play around with the fonts in /system/fonts or get another keyboard. from what I can see, the problem is not from my arabization or RTL files per se.

hey madmack

its been a long time.. i'm the guy you helped bring arabic to his sense rom a year ago.. maybe more..

i need some help.. again.

i now own a i9100, and i used your patch to bring arabic to a rom(kl1 version) i'm using, and it seems there's a problem with brightidea's libwebcore patcher (at least in my case), cause every time i visit an arabic site the browser would crash randomly..

i even tried brightidea's patcher from the market without flashing your patch and got the same result..

the rom is based on 2.3.6.. if the sources are out would it be too much to ask for you to patch the libwebcore from source "the old fashion way"?!

why not try ICS roms for SGS2? i really love the new browser and it has native Arabic support.

* BTW, Android 4 (ICS) will be officially available via kies tomorrow.

No the truth is i really like this rom im using, because of the theme and the fact that its stripped of all the junk i dont use..

So i hope madmack or anyone could lend me a hand here..

hey, good to see you jump ship

afaik, brightidea's patch works totally fine with all versions of the GB roms released for the Galaxy S2. I personally released some stock roms with a lot of versions of these GB roms and they all worked fine. I'm not entirely sure why it is crashing on you

but I highly recommend taking that issue to brightidea's thread as he's the one who's patching the libwebcore.so file for us.

btw, did you move two files once his patcher is done? you'll need to move both lib__bcore.so and libwebcore.so to your lib/ folder and make sure you got libicuuc-arabic.so also installed.

otherwise, you can give me a log of when the browser crashes and I can perhaps give more insight but yea, definitely check brightidea with that.

as for the good old fashioned way, my setup is pretty dated and i haven't touched it in a while

lol. i never actually really succeeded at providing a crash proof libwebcore.so for the Galaxy S2 using my old fashioned manual patching method. It kept crashing and i was never able to figure out the reason.

Well i cant say i feel the same. i miss the trouble free htc days and the unbelieveable amount of development in that part of the world..

Im sure the problem is caused by brightidea's patch cause like i said i tried his app from the market and got the same random crash. this is why i thought maybe u can patch the source like u used to back in the days..

Tell me.. At which point did u start incorporating his libwebcore patch with yours?
Maybe if i try an older one i would get a better result..

Also now ill be looking for some kl1 rom with working arabic libwebcore to try.. wish me luck. and as always... thanks.

The change log at my blog should give you a pretty good idea of when I started incorporating brightidea's patch. You really should drop him a post over at his thread.

Hi Madmack,

Excellent and great job done man

.

I was so skeptic that this would work but I have just applied your Patch ver 0.906 to get Arabic support for GingerMod 0.8.5 AOSP ROM. Followed your step by step guide and got the CWM flashable file, flashed it in CWM, reboot and Voila... All is working perfect and flawlessly on Gingermod ROM 0.8.5 (GB 2.3.6 - BB XXLPH - XWKL1) with Siyah kernel 2.6.13 #122 installed.

Installed Smart KB Pro, Go Keyboard with Arabic support and tried stock browser, Opera, Dolphin HD, FB, Twitter,.... all working flawlessly

Thanks again for you and brightidea for your excellent work..

Best regards..

i'm using custom 4.0.3 rom, while it can read arabic words/language with not problem.

but somehow it cannot write or even doing copy paste not showing the word properly it's disjointed.

any chance of creating mod for 4.0.3 ?

here's sample of copy-paste from web site in my phone
