Help needed ... font download for HTC Desire - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys ... its my first thread and i hope i posted it in the right place ...
Am new to the Android world and i dont know anything about it.
i brought my HTC Desire directly when it came out .. but i noticed
a problem in it .. that it can't read arabic.
it can't read the letters and instead it appears like squares ..
so i was wondering if any of you guys can help me and teach me
how to add a font to the mobile so it can read arabic ...
i was searching and looking arround and i guess i found many stuff
that can help but as i said am so new into this .. and i don't know anything
so if you please can teach me step by step
Again i hope that non will remove my thread cuz i don't know where am i suppose to post it.

is there anybody who know how to install a language on this mobile?!!
i have the font .. i just need the method!

If the language is zipped up, rename it update.zip pop it on the root of your SD card and either power off and down to flash it (like a new ROM) or use ROM manager to do the same thing only without having to rename it

i tried to install ROM manager before but there was some wrongs with the phone i dont know what ..
I tried now to do how you said the first time .. but i guess i understood wrong .. because my english is not that good in mobile and computer language .. so can you please try to explain more detailed?
Its unzipped and i just rename it to " update.zip" and i copied it to the SD card
and then when i pressed down and the power buttom so i got a list and i didnt understand which one to take
Sorry if am kinda slow in this .. but its not my field .. so could you please help me more detaild?

its ok mate,,, follow what is says in this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=696189
and all should be nice and clear for you
you have to read it all to understand how to use the bootloader and recovery, then with the font zipped up as update.zip on the root of the SD it should allow you to update then reboot the phone
Again failing that have another try with ROM manager, makes this process sooooooo much easier

mate i did it on ROM manager ... and the mobile rebooted and i got a black screen with a red question mark .. then the mobile started by it self normally .. but! the mobile is still cant read the arabic text .. i zipped the font like hw u said .. so wuts the problem?

This thread needs moving to the Desire Themes and Apps section, i think itll get more attention and a fix in there
dont worry mate just hang in there, i PM'd a MOD to see if he can shift it, hopefully someone will have the answer for you

a friend has the same device. he got it 2 weeks after i got mine.

but what i am after is how can i get a copy of his rom of his device and install it on mine with all the apps and software installed as well?
i think i remember an sd card proggy to do it, but wasnt shore (and couldnt find the thread again) if it did what i was after it for.
Depending on your operator
Download the appropriate ROM File here:

Rom upgrading error 270 ? please help

hi there,
i have just taken t-mobile dash and love it it came with windows mobile 6 but i just wana upgrade to kavana rom or rickys rom
i have tried several times but i get error on completing 3% it shows Error 270 ur file is corrupt.

i want realplayer of a player which can play rm file
Thanks in Advance
once again..this topic is posted daily. use the search or scroll through some threads on here...you will find the answer..i dont get why people post an issue before bothering to read...
as far as i know now, you need to go in bootloader. Keep the sym camera button, then turn the power on. You will go to bootloader screen.
Then plug in the usb connect to the PC . Flash ur original ROM . You can find a lot here
But poor me i still stuck . Hope u will be alright
you just had to look a little bit...

really new to this (noob)

Hi all. I want to add themes apps to my touch pro2. Ive looked into the fourm and there is nothing for people who are starting from scratch. Where and how do I add all these files and everything.
Dont reply with try the surch button as I have for the past 2 days and am lost on it all.
There should be a sticky for people like us who are all new to this. So help me and the others people like me
Have you tried looking at the Rhodium themes forum? (http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=491). There are several themes made by users on the first page (I'm one of them). If you look over at the Blackstone themes forum, you will find more. Almost all of these can be installed via cab file.
and what is cab file?
just draged the ROMeOS³ RHODIUM TRANSFORMATION PREVIEW PACK and had 2 files and but both of them on my phone. Turned it off and on and nothing.
Went in to start and add other programs and it couldnt find the two I put on my phone.
So as I said there is nothing on saying what to do with these files, where they are, where they go and everything. Really badly layed out

funny......... when you add the cab files to your phone or memory card you need to install them using file explorer. just dragging them across doesn't install them...
ok... so why dont people say that in the first place rather than theres the files enjoy there is no step by step on what files to downloader where to put them and everything. So now Im going to try this file explorer. where ever that is on here.
More searching now
thanks for your help just wish other put it up in the frist place for us noobs. Shame my blackberry was so easy on moding

no! file explorer is already installed on your phone. it's in programs or click start and should be one of your shortcuts. no searching............ relax as people assume that everyone knows the basics. not done intentional! open file explorer and navigate to where you put the 2 files. click on them and should start installing!
hurrrrray its working now thank you ! ! !

ha ha no worries dude! glad i could help. always remember thats most windows mobile apps that can be installed on your phone are called cab file. meaning that file ext is .cab. this can be copied to device/sd card memory and be installed!
Check out:
It couldn't hurt if you checked out this link:
http://www.coolsmartphone.com/index.php?option=articles&task=viewarticle&artid=336&Itemid=
Coolsmartphone learnt me all the basics when I first ventured out into the world of WinMo in 2004. I'm sure there are a lot more of these sites, they won't go much into detail on your specific device, but they will help you understand what's underneath Touchflo etc. It will probably save you a lot of frustration...
And I'm sure there's a manual that came with the phone too that will do a lot of explaining if you give it a try.
funny enough I saw that site didnt help much and Ive never seen in the "manual" of how your not use there installed software and use other peoples and how to do it.
Ok, what do you think about this one: New to a PocketPC?

Successfully Flashed to JG5 - Here's what I did

Hi all,
Thanks to those who have helped along the way. None of this is my work, I am just putting it all in the one place for those who are in a similar situation as me - wanting to do get onto JG5, but not knowing how. Hopefully you can follow along!
This is the first time I've ever done anything to an Android phone, so consider me a noob! Here's all the files I used - multiupload.com/66CNCCTE4W (you will need to copy and paste the link into your address bar as I can't post links yet
Before you start, I did this on my Australian Samsung Galaxy S, so I'm not sure how different your model is!
Before starting, unzip the downloaded file above to your hard drive, and extract it to an easy to find folder - I'd suggest somewhere on your desktop.
1. Open the Odin3_v1.0 folder
2. Run Odin3_v1.0.exe program
3. Select the PIT, PDA, Phone and CSC files by clicking on the button, then locating the file in the I9000XWJG5 folder
a) PIT - s1_odin_20100512.pit
b) PDA - CODE_I9000XWJG5.tar
c) PHONE - MODEM_I9000XXJG1
d) CSC - CSC_I9000OXXJG4.tar
4. Remove the External MicroSD Card and the Sim Card
5. Turn the phone off
6. Get into download mode by pressing volume down + home key + power button
7. Connect the USB Cable from phone to computer
8. Wait for the drivers to be automatically installed.
9. Once drivers are fully installed, click START in Odin.
And that should be it!
P.s. I had to manually select my Network by going into Settings, Wireless and network, Mobile networks, and then selecting the Network (for me it was Optus). You will probably want to select Swype as the default input. To do this, press and hold a text input field, and press input and select Swype.
I hope this helps - please let me know how it goes for you!
*(Edited to include only flashing phone - I originally thought you had to root it first!)
You don't need to do step one and two.
lol,why bother about root ur device when u can straight away flash it like step 3??
Why do we need step one and two before ?
Since we are going to flash new rom and will need to do those again ????
Didnt work
So i tried to flash my SGS last night but it didnt turn out so well.
put all the bits and bobs in (.pit pda phone and modem) and then connected the phone in Download mode, seemed to connect to Odin, ID:COM 0:[COM20], clicked start, it seemed to be working so went to check on dinner and when i came back it didnt seem to be doing much, screen on the phone was blank and odin looked like it was tring to move across factoryfs.rfs, i look in the CODE file and saw that the factoryfs.rfs file was huge so thought id just leave it and wait. but nothing left it for 4-5 hrs then left the comp on all night when i cam back it was in the same spot but said removed and the phone was showing a phone then triangel with a ! inside the computer. so i unpluged it took out the bat and put it back tried turning it on, same thing, turned it off again and put into download mode seems to work but didnt get a chance to play with it at home, at work now and cant do it because it asks for admi privileges to install the drivers, so ill wait till im home again. anyone got ideas of what it might be? should i have connected to port 7?
Really? There ya go. Told you I was a noob! Sorry to confuse people. I have edited the original post so it only shows the flashing part.
#4 is not needed.
BTW: your tutorial is already stickied in the big faq (post 2).
I think alot of noobs will find this very useful. It's easier to follow for those who are flashing for the first time, i'm sure others wil appreciate your effort.

Hey Zac,
Don't worry if the steps are already in post # 2. I find yours better and more direct. More importantly, your phone is also from Australia, same as mine.
Thank you for taking the trouble to post this. I've been helped. I'm a bigger noob I guess
The only problem is that I don't seem to be able to download it. It stops after a few bytes. Know of any alternative links?
Edit: On the other hand, after going through some of the comments on threads related to JG5, all the problems are still there, so I don't see any real advantage over JG3. Will stick to this, since I'm about to get a replacement for my phone soon.
Thank you!! Thank you!! Thank you!! Thank you!! Thank you!!
I really want to thank you 4 this!! Damn you're the man!! This fixed my broked SGS immediately!! I can't thank you enough my best friend 4 ever!!
How do i get Superuser in to this?? And can i use Lagfix 2.0 too?? Please answer to me..i'm so so so damn gr8ful about all your hard work! Do i have to root my SGS again and where i can find the latest file update.zip which works with this your version?? I have already update.zip but it's kinda old file though.
Like i said earlier:
Thank you!!
Thank you!!
Thank you!!
Thank you!!
Thank you!!
PS: I gave 5 stars !!
Dude don't stress!
For rooting/superuser read my tutorial!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=728754
After that you can either apply One click lagfix or the CFLagFix 1.80!
I would recommend CFLagFix 1.80!
Buy me a beer if it works
LauncherPro problems
Hiya!!
U have any idea when i installed this jg5 my launcherpro won't work anymore at all, it just force closes all the time and i can't open my phone at all?? Why this is happening??
How do install this but still use LauncherPro??
( Though it works when i install it but immeadiately when i try ty restart my LauncherPro it starts to force close 24/7)
When i did a factory reset it didn't make it completely, it left something in in phone about this jg5...maybe that's why my LP is not working anymore...
Sorry but i'm a noob so don't judge me, i have a question now, where i can get "Stock 2.1 Eclair"?? I have now FRF91.372 2.2 in my phone it works like ****!! I don't even get LauncherPro work without continious force closes...i want that firmware where LP works without any force closes!!
Please help a noob...please, now i know how to use Odin, cause i have flashed already 3 times. But all the firmwares what i've tried have sucked.
PS: Is there any way i can do a raw clean for my SGS before install new firwmare, i ask cause i want to SGS completely empty before i install new firmware, is this possible?? I heard that if you swype your SGS empty new firmware will work much better...but this is just a rumour though

All the ROMs that are released by Samsung themselves are stock ROMs, e.g. JG5 is a Stock Eclair 2.1 ROM.

black screen

i rooted my device but some games wont play like need for speed and asphalt 7 so i installd and its the last thing i did on my device (chainfire3d) then my device reboot and keep reboot wont open help please wait for answer
Sounds like this is a very similar problem to something someone else posted in the last few days. Take a look through the last couple of days posts in this forum and see if you can see it. The general suggestion if i remember right was to use ODIN to fix.

Read before you install, chain fire 3d does not work with jellybean 4.1.
I think the description in the play store also said enough
Amazes me why people dont read ?
It clrearly says not for jelly bean
You need to find your desired stock rom and flash it via odin. Only solution
Why do you install things which aren't supported?
It's the first thing people should do when installing unconfirmed stuff.
Chainfire 3D isn't supported for JB.
What you need to do now is go into DOWNLOAD mode, and flash your stock ROM via Odin, if you want official.
thanks all its my mistake am new , and i said sorry for my note lmao , well now i need to search for good custom room
i download nandroid and platinum backup and i backup my apps&system wz data got .gz files i think on my sd-card and got nandroid backup on my sd-card (nandroid back up like 4 files) one of them .md5 and its 1kb others .tar 500mb and 700mb cach and system and est i think didnt remember they are on my sd-card is that help me by odin ? because i cant open my device any way my only solution by odin mode but is there any file in my back up files can help ? forget i tried to restore my device by nandroid.md5 and odin closed not response , dont say iam lucky new in android world understand nothing for now
You don't need to flash custom ROM, bro. If you want official rom, just go to sammobile.com, find the firmware of your country and flash it through odin. There, you have official stock ROM again.
Also your English is extremely hard to understand. Try to use commas and full-stops.
