Anyone know anything or no hope??
Mine displays Arabic out of the box...
Edit: Wait, I take that back. It displays the characters but in right to left, rather than left to right as they should be.
Are you sure this will work? i don't want to root my device and find out later this will not work
Thank you, I rooted my phone and tried the Arabic browser, finally I can read Arabic on my note I717.
Also, if you want to be able to type in Arabic, SwiftKey X supports it and a long list of other languages. I use it for typing things in German. Sadly you just missed the 49 cent sale that was going on.

until we get a real solution you can use Opera mini which i am using now and it displays arabic pages correctly. i think normal Opera will work too but i haven't tried it.
for the keyboard i am using miltiling keyboard, it is free and support arabic. it will allow you to type in arabic and there is an option to make it connect the letters for you but it may not display correctly for iphone users (which we don't care for anyway lol)
Here is a test using that keyboard:
ﺍﺧﺘﺒﺎﺭ ﺍﻟﻜﺘﺎﺑﺔ ﺑﺎﻟﻌﺮﺑﻲ ﻓﻲ ﺟﻬﺎﺯ ﻗﺎﻟﻜﺴﻲ ﻧﻮﺕ ﻏﻴﺮ ﻣﻌﺮﺏ
sent from my Galaxy Note (stock rom, and not rooted yet)

Ok, i got a solution. not very straight forward but it works. and you need "root"
There are two solutions:
1- The first thing you need to do is deodex your rom or get one that is already deodexed like TPC rom here
Then use the patching script made by madmack from here
This script should patch these files:
framework.jar
libandroid_runtime.so
libicuuc-arabic.so
libwebcore.so
which will fix Arabic for every thing, i used the latest patcher 0.907 which now works for the Galaxy Note.
anyway, you can copy these files over to your phone "fix the user owner and permission" or use the zip file that was also generated by the patching script and flash it using CWM recovery. I attached the file i generated using my stock and deodexed rom it should work for you as well if you have the same phone and same rom (Stock 2.3.6).
Reboot and clean the cache and dalvik cache.
Now browser, gmail, twitter, whatsapp, facebook...etc should show the arabic correctly.
2- Fixing the browser and gmail only: this is easier and doesn't need deodex (since it patches lib files only) but it still need root and will not fix twitter, whatsapp and the other applications.
This fix also uses madmack patch.
The fix is here
or you can go directly to the android market "Google Play" and install the patcher, it is very easy and will patch the file with a single click from your phone
Thanks to madmack and brightidea and anyone who made this possible.
This is for AT&T Galaxy Note only (i717) (2.3.6) the same process should work for other phones as well, but the attached files will only work with this phone.

My phone runs great since then, btw this patching method is not new and has been tested before on so many phones, i was using it with my old Nexus S, I also did a similar thing two days ago to arabize a Galaxy S II and that one works great too.
Hey everyone,
I finally got to this page!
I have rooted my Samsung galaxy note SGH-I717 at&t from this guy website and I am thankful he is around!

I have the superuser and ROM manager on my phone. All I need is to get my phone type Arabic and read it from messages and other apps correctly!
Then I downloaded Titanium and I have backed up all the necessary apps that I am concern about.
THEN WHAT I SHOULD DO?
I read this thread but I could not follow. When I tried t
I tried to follow the steps guys and download "TPC Note ATT v2" this from this page that I was directed to here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1509855
but when I try to do this from my phone, it says downloading then it stays 1-2 minutes not progress after that it says download failed!
I was trying to see what the problem was, so I got my laptop and opened it from my computer, it was a ZIP file.
Should I download it to my computer then transfer it to my phone, or not?
I need 1,2,3,4,....etc steps guide pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease guys!

1- What ROM are you running now on your phone?
2- Is it deodex?
3- Have you installed a recovery tool other than the default? (like CWM, or TWRP)
* if you don't know what these means then i would recommend that you search for those terms and learn about them before you start doing stuff to your phone or you might end up with a bricked device.
1- I am not running any ROM except when I open ROM manager
I have this called Flash ClockworkMod Recovery above (reboot into recovery)
when I click on it, it shows list of phone types such as (commtiva Z71, Dell Streak, Geeksphone ONE, Samsung Epic4G, Samsung galaxy i9000, Samsung T-mobile Galaxy s2.........etc)
2- I have no clue what deodex is but I think not.
3- I honestly did not install any of these recovery.
Yes I have no idea about those terms and I wish someone can do a video to install arabic from scratch on Youtube. I have looked around but I couldn't find anything for Samsung Galaxy note I717 AT&T.
I appreciate your comments here fduraibi
