Hi everybody ..
Arabic users always want to use wonderful Roms like CM7 and other Roms but they stop with no Arabic support ..
her the solution
thanks to madmack
http://blog.devasque.com/?page_id=11
I try it .. and it was perfect i use it with cm7 and iceandfire ..
it was work perfect.. just apply patch to framework.jar .. and use libwebcore.so all will found in zip file there
for those can't open link .. steps of arabic shaping
framework.jar takes care of shaping texts in android on all texts except Gmail and the browser.
Note: Please perform a nandroid backup of your system before attempting to use this patch.
Requirements:
Your device needs to be rooted.
Your Android version is 2.1 or newer
Your ROM needs to be deodexed. To find out if your installed ROM is deodexed, navigate to /system/framework on your phone. If you see a file called framework.odex then this patch will NOT work for you.
Steps to apply the patch:
1. Download the patch below and extract it to a folder on your computer.
2. Pull /system/framework/framework.jar from your phone and place it in the subfolder framework that you extracted in step 1
3. Double click on commands.exe. Do not close the black cmd screens that will pop up. Once the patch is done, you should get a patched framework.jar in the subfolder generated
Verify that the generated framework.jar is bigger than the original framework.jar that you pulled from your device. It should be about 1MB larger.
4. In subfolder generated: Place the generated framework.jar in your phone in /system/framework and reboot
I’ve also included the Aljazeera fonts in fonts. You can place these in /system/fonts and reboot
Sometimes permissions and xml data doesn’t get updated correctly resulting in corrupted data entries. If you receive a bunch of Force Closes after a reboot, you’ll need to Factory Reset.
Note: This will not shape the letters in Gmail and the Browser correctly. If you want this, you’ll need to get the appropriate libwebcore.so for your system. Each Android device and ROM will need a separate one, therefore I’m not including one in this post to avoid confusion.

Thank you for putting this widely open to the international community.
All the credits to our friend Madmack for the great work.
I've been using this in Arabaizing all the goodies here & hope to find a way for Odex systems..
I hope developer use the patch to support arabic in there great roms here
thanx alot for this post. it is realy helpful.
I have a question, or two ..
is the CM7 a rom for Froyo or Gingerbread??
I am still using the Official Eclair and I am planning to root my phone. if you would list the way to Upgrade the Milestone to CM7 from scratch and then Install Arabic..

CM7 is GB AOSP with Moto Froyo kernel.
IF you want to upgrade to CM7 procedure would be as follows.
Flash GOT 2.2.1 sbf
Apply CM7
Apply your Arabic patch.
thnx alot sileshn ,,
do u recommend the CM7? or an earlier Rom? the CM6?
Can't we just copy-paste your Framework.jar file using root explorer, like with libwebcore.so?
Thank u very much
HEY guys i just want to know to mod a rom i.e.,
add custom home screen launcher
how to change the background of settings and phone screen....plz tell....i guess there are a lot who want to learn...if there is no way plz tell me....

Well, you can install new launchers by searching the market for them and installing them directly. Then you can set the new ones as the default as you see fit.
But I think what you're looking for is something like this website. There, you can just click together simple mods and build a ROM. I'm not sure if this will work for your phone, as I've only tried with a different model but it should jive with several Android models. Check out their XDA link to learn more.

try apk manager to decompile an apk you wish to mod.
navigate to the res/drawable-mdpi and mod the pictures of your wish.
if the file an .9.png so you have to hold the 1 px transparent border. this is very tricky with the *.9.png files.
after you mod at your wish compile your apk back with apk manager and sign it.
have fun
ok i have tried apk manager,autoapktool and apk tool bit non of them compiles the modded apk....i have java sdk and android sdk installed.....help guys plzz.....

Unpack the update ZIP of the ROM you want to mod to your likings and slap the APK of the launcher you want into /system/app - rename the standard one to <whatever>.apk.backup (just in case the ROM hates your launcher and keeps on force closing upon boot).

Decompile the /system/framework files and have a lot of fun in editing stuff in SMALI - it can be done, but it's definitely easier to edit the source and compile the ROM. Once you did your changes create the JARs and put them back into /system/framework.
ZIP up the ROM, flash it, hope for the best.
If you soft-bricked the phone with your mods make sure you have Flashtool and the Stock ROM FTF standing by.
Given the nature of your question I rather suggest you simply forget about your plan, because it doesn't sound like as if you know about the stuff - you already fail to post a question in the Q&A board.

You can't make a ROM without programming knowledge. You can't even make a simple app without programming knowledge. The least you could do is mod some drawables and stuff.

That's just a compiler with user interface. So what?
In my opinion, real programming is writing code yourself, not a GUI doing it for you without having any idea of what is going on (not talking about the compiler here).

Hello,
I like to cook a ROM, but I have the knowledge necessary to do so. I'm told to make a ROM I have to have Linux. Do not you know you can do in Windows XP? Since it is the OS I use.
Is there a tutorial that you can leave me? Really appreciate it. If nothing happens in English, or English or Spanish.
Does anyone like me started? Asking and got that and then cook a ROM. I would like to cook a ROM because I have several days behind it.
Greetings!

Its easy to cook a ROM:
1.Download a ROM, any ROM.
2.Then prepare a pan for cooking.
3.Add some oil to the pan(not so much).
4.Put the ROM in the pan and wait three minutes.
5.Flip the ROM and wait other 2 minutes.
6.Serve the ROM with a salad and a dip like a theme.
7.Enjoy!!!!!

Welcome to the forums. It's always great to have someone trying to learn.
SO, to be clear there are two things about making custom rom. EIther you mod or edit somebody's else custom rom by changing themes, adding tweaks and scripts and changing apps. You can do this easily with teh help of android kitchen. Find more about it at http://yagyagaire.blogspot.com/search/label/Android Kitchen
And to make a rom with source you need more than just wish. You need to have knowledge of programming as well as you need to be able to use Linux to download (sync the repo) the source and then edit it. A lots of terminal commands to learn and source of 6+ GB to download and then edit the Java, Android xml and C source code to your preference then debug it and test and do many more. While you can also sync repo in windows using git bash Linux is recommended for compatibility and easiness. You can find instructions on syncing a repo and then building the rom at source.android.com
So, you have to decide which one you will take. First one is simple and second one takes a lot of research, knowledge and programming skills.
Good Luck! And have a nice time while at xda. I will be glad to help to the extent I can. You can find me on my site or at my facebook page in signature.

Thank you very much for all your comments.
In particular you yagya.
First of all I have no Linux, so I'm going to easy. I do not want a ROM from zero, apart from that I have the necessary knowledge.
For example, do a ROM-based CyanogenMod 7.2. But adding my stuff. What I need is to know how to add things.
Thank you very much yagya.

You could try WUBI, it'll install Ubuntu Linux on top of Windows without the need to repartition your drive, after installation you just reboot and you get to choose whether to start windows or ubuntu.
If you don't like it you can just uninstall it like you would any application in windows so it's easy enough to remove it if you don't like it.
For changing/adding to a ROM just go to the link yagya provided (http://yagyagaire.blogspot.com/search/label/Android Kitchen) all the information you need is right there.

In what way do you want to change it? If it's just icons/colour/transparency then check out http://uot.dakra.lt/kitchen/ you can do it online there with ready made icons from a variety of themes, it doesn't get much easier than that.
It can do a lot more if you want to fiddle with other settings but it's restricted to the stuff that they provide.

My question is, do I unzip the. Zip and I can grab from there the notification bar?
What I want is to have the iPhone interface, you will ask, Why do not you buy an iPhone? xD For this very expensive and is out of reach. At least by changing my Android interface I can have an illusion, it sounds stupid, but it would be the theme. xD
I ask a lot of patience with me, since I'm a bit slow to grab things, but I'm Spanish.
I hope you help me and you may be sympathetic with me.

First of all , thanx button is there
Btw i understand u cannot buy iphone evn i cannot its expensive for me
the rom link u gave is joyos then why dont u jst download it
or jst by changing notifi bar it cannot look like full iphone interface
U can use iphone launchers lockscreens (milocker etc) iconset
for notification bar u cannot transform it fully
All u neet is framework-res.apk frm joyos rom (system/framework-res.apk) and system ui.apk (system/app/systemui.apk)
Same both frm the rom u r using now
And decompile the both apk's with apk manager (google for downld link) now search for battery icons / signal icons etc in both apks of joyos rom and replace them with the rom apk's ..... remember the pic name shud be same (which would not be as both roms r different) u need to explore sm more by urself like searching for icons in apks in folder (drawable-ldpi)
Now finally after replacing icons compile the both apk with apk manager and use root explorer in ur sgm and replace both apks with original and change permissions and reboot phone
If u do all correctly (though this work is gonna little difficult) u can compile both apks successfully and they will run successfully
U need to explore more like searching for the dragger in status bar its pic in systemui etc
The whole interface would not be like iphone like settings menu will be same it cannot be edited so i recomment use any theme or original joyos rom
Best of luck hope i was clear

newbie just want to learn, i dont know if this is in the right place ...
i am former users of G-FIT CM 7 by tj_style, and now switched to Lenovo S890 which have Mediatek MT6577 chipset. many variants of the chipset, and the source code is not released by vendors, so few developers really developing this phone. and now I missed the CM look and feel.
my question:
1. can stock rom (or lewa os) modified to look like CM?
2. I've tried to use UOT Kitchen to theming SystemUI, but didnt give any different, only change icon.
(I uploaded the framework-res.apk, lenovosystemui.apk, lenovo-res.apk (to replace twframework)
targets / objectives :
1. change the look of the stock-rom / lewa rom (only two of these are available) to look like CM.
2. add reboot, recovery when the power button is pressed (see some tutorials to change framework-res.apk, but stuck in the "where to put this, where to put that, because the tutorial that I found almost entirely specific to a particular device, and I do not understand patterns / rules in android)
3. use some CM applications (calendar, dialer, etc.), for this, if it could be done with just replace /system/framework and /system/app from CM to Stock Rom?
information relating to the above matters are expected (links, info, guide, hopefully someone will give direct way of how to accomplish my objectives above).
thank you,

At lot of guides are so unless you can find one specific to your device you need to try and figure it out, but most apks are similar in regards to how you edit them so just decompile a few and examine them and you'll get a general idea. My SystemUI.apk and yours for example will be different, but certain xmls from each are going to be quite similar.

ex : i want to try comparing Lewa systemUI and stock SystemUI, i need to install framework-res.apk first to decompile systemui.apk (am i right in this or it is actually not needed ? )

You can, but it will overwrite the first one, install you're own first and just use that, if you have an issue trying to decompile another from another Phone then you know you need to install the resources. This is why I love Virtuous Ten, as you can install multiple resources.
