[Guide] How to Add Arabic / Persian / Hebrew support to your Kaiser

Hi everybody. I will explain the process here, it is fairly easy

Here is what you’re going to need:
1.Fonts/Language support: this is the most important part. I took the required files for Arabic support from this site
http://code.google.com/p/arabicandroid/downloads/list
all credit goes to Mr. alsanad for his great code
Persian and Hebrew seem to work fine with the font I'm using right now, but I can read both, so I can't say it's 100% working.
Persian: you may want to play with it a little, maybe add newer fonts later by yourself.
Hebrew: when I search Google I found only fonts for Android 1.5. however if you find the fonts, the process should be the same
anyway, the Arabic font package I am using right now apparently can display Hebrew characters...
2.7-Zip or any program that can create “tar” files
Please note that the fonts you get in most of the cases are made for HTC android devices in mind, not for WM devices. And they require recovery mode and other stuff (I can’t explain a lot because I don’t own Android device). So we’re going to convert the file, and make it suitable for our devices.
Steps:
1.Get the fonts file and extract the content to whatever place you like
In the case of Arabic, you should see two folders:
PHP:
META-INF
System
2.Select the folders, and right click on them, them choose 7-Zip > Add to Archive
3.Make sure you choose archive formate as “tar”
4.Name the file “androidupdate” and save
5.Copy the file to you SD card: put in andboot folder
6.Installing the update: I quote this from “How to replace Windows Mobile with Android”
Place the SD card in your phone and power on your Kaiser. When you see text on your screen hold down the D-pad. D-pad is that button in the center of your up, down, left, right buttons. Keep holding down the D-pad until you see something like this appear on your screen.

7.Choose install update: you will see then some lines and then word Installing.
8.When finished, choose quite, or soft rest.
9.You’re done
Make sure you choose the right font for your Android. Apparently each version of android requires some modifications.
You might want to add some specific keyboard. I recommend Smart Keyboard... it is super fast, very accurate, and has support for different languages, such as Arabic and Hebrew.
I tried these steps on Kaiser running VaniljEclair RLS7c with the latest kernel.
I know this guide is basically unpacking, renaming, then installing... But it might be a little hard for some people..And I hope it will help them.
Make sure you back up you date or whatever important information you have on your phone and SD card before you start.
I have uploaded the files I used for my device. these fonts are meant for android 2.1
Cheers

Duke that has got to be the best timed guide I've ever seen, just finished making up a hebrew fonts update for shar1r, lol
Excellent guide, this deserves a sticky, since it is a question that has been asked before, and will be again
I usually edit an existing androidupdate.tar using 7zip, but this method is more complete, ( my method is mostly a lazy hack ).

Awesome!! I just posted a question about this - and voila this great tutorial!
Thank you!!

Sure, no problem. glad I can help

If the guide isn't working for you then you can always try a multi language build. I know both Scoot and I keep our multi language Cyanogen 6.1 based builds updated. You might want to look towards those.

Link in 1st post doesn't seem to be working for me either.
Yet i think you should change the title of the thread, something like:
How to add YOUR language to a build

Avoid return key, learn to use space. For a moment i thought i was reading a poem...

the coder apparently switched from Google code. here is the new website
http://ardoid.com/
I would recommend using generic Froyo libs as they might work. I don't have my TyTN II anymore... all my testings are on HD2.
http://ardoid.com/?p=64
most of the mutlilang builds will have native support for Arabic/Persian fonts, however, they won't look connected.
you migh need to use "libskia.so" and/or "libwebcore.so" only in this case.
Adding language support is trail and error, so give yourself plenty of time before trying this out.
I am using the libs for the Desire HD on my HD2 and they work perfectly fine.
And yeah, you can try a program called Tor www.torproject.org or Hotspot Shield www.hotspotshield.com to change your IP address.

[TUT][Hack]Change Product code without losing any data

Hi All
This is a tutorial for changing the phone product code and should work with Wave I/II/III
This tutorial works under 32-bit copy of Windows only
Steps:-
1.First of all download this file : http://www.mediafire.com/?yahd09ptzv3ubir
2.Extract the file with WinRAR & you will get 3 other files
a.QPST b.Revskills c.Samsung qualcomm driver
3.Grab your Wave and enter the code *#197328640#
Choose [8] Common >>>[7]Service Configuration>>>[2]DIAG Service Config.>>>[2]Usb DM/CP....Then exit this menu
4.Connect your Wave to the PC...If it asks for a Usb mode choose Usb Debugging
5.You will notice that your PC will detect a new hardware and will ask you for its driver>>>Use Samsung qualcomm driver
6.Install both QPST & Revskills
7.Use QPST to assign a COM Port for the phone

If anyone got any question about this please ask
Best Regards

Thank u very much, will try tomorrow. maybe this will help to get my wave back in line with samsung kies. My product code was baaxen but with flashing to 2.0 it changed to baakor and kies would not let me update. hope this will help.

i hope it works for you

Is it possible to change the product code from GT-S8500BAAXTC to SHW-M210SBAASKT which is the same product with S8530 using this method even also vice versa? Because only Samsung Apps Korea is blocked to download an apps from global models such as S8500 and S8530. Not only from global to Korean model but also Korean model cannot download an apps from other countries.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App

If the phone's IMEI is not Korean maybe you will end up with a blocked phone that can't access Samsung Apps at all
I don't recommend doing this
This tutorial is for fixing product code if it was changed by accident and not tested for other purposes
Best Regards

I think Samsung Apps doesn't check the IMEI because there was a way to download an app from UK Samsung Apps by Korean model (SHW-M210S).
Actually, it was not that technical method, it just needed fast hands and good eyes
Of course, Sammy blocked it again last week.

Didnt work (yet)
So I tried to get back in line with kies and to turnback my productcode to XEN
SO far didnt work this is what i did:
I flashed back to an old full 1.0 bada firmware version and tried to change my productcode after that. I can connect to qpst and revskill but...
Revskill gives me when I fill in Item 2757; 26
When i click check commands i get: unknown response
Maybe i should flashback to bada 2.0 after that change productcode and then go back to my old updatable dutch firmware
or am i overlooking something
Edit: changed firmware to XXJID (bada 1.2) now I get error: failed in call to write file
Will reboot everything and try again

Did you use QPST to assign the COM Port number???
Assign that number then use it with revskills
If you phone COM Port is not listed in revskills
Make sure that your PC can find your phone as a Samsung HS-USB in the device manager
Don't write command number in revskills...it gets written after pressing let's go
Watch the youtube video for more understanding
Best Regards

To bad still getting error failed in call to writefile (see my edit previous post)
Going to flash back to bada 2.0 change productcode and than flash to old updatable firmware
Update; Flashed some back and forward and reinstalled revskills. Now i can see my productcode which is BAAKOR and I want it to be BAAXEN.
So what do I have to change now and where u say: to change that code you need to write new one in Hex editior. What do I have to put in where in order to change my productcode

New code in hex editor
The tutorial tells me: to change that code you need to write new one in Hex editor
How do I know what values should be filled in there to change my productcode to BAAXEN

it is 47542D533835303042414158454E
Did you manage to connect your phone finally ?!

My mistake
Yes after reinstalling revskill I managed to connect.
this afternoon I will change to BAAXEN with the info you provided
Hope this will work (btw how do you know it should be the input u suggested?)

I used PC software called HXD hex editior
Made a new text document and write string data in it in the right side and as you can see in the picture it converted string data to hex value and that is it
Best Regards

Okee but how do u know what string data to write to change productcode to baaxen? (trying to learn / understand)

You don't need to memorise or know what code to write.
You can use this online hexadecimal editor.
Open the link, and paste the value you wish to convert to hex.
Example, to convert GT-S8500BAAXEN.
Just copy GT-S8500BAAXEN into the upper column of the page, and press Convert.
The value 47542d533835303042414158454e will display at the bottom column.

Any idea for S8600 Product Codes? Especially for :
I've tried GT-S8600HKATPL, but this seems wrong...
Code:
GT-S8600??????
S8600BOKJ1 (SW Version)
S8600TPLKJ1 (CSC Version)
Confirmed, because downloadable
Code:
[B]GT-S8600HKAXEF[/B] (France)
S8600XXKJC (SW Version)
S8600OXAKJB (CSC Version)
See KIES/FUS...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19085697&postcount=19
Maybe now also S7250 and S5380 online?
Best Regards

Succesfull
I managed to connect to revskills (after reinstalling twice) and updated succesfully to BAAXEN and Yes kies told me there was an update available. So now Im back in line with kies with the latest official firmware. Now waiting for samsungs update to bada 2.0 cause the beta versions were promissing!
Thank u all for help and information!

Thanx mate, posted in badablog.ru

Hello,
I have a Wave 3 S8600 that when connected to Kies in registry has the product code set to XXXXXXXXXXXXXX . I tried changing the product code in the registry but kies 2 is ignoring this it seems.
Do you know how can I change this using PST? I tried the steps described in first post but my phone doesn't have Usb DM/CP. It has:
1. USB DM []
2. UART [*]
3. USB ACM []
Upon setting the Usb DM and after that connecting to PC it doesn't do anything, QPST is not seeing any new port. According to kies registry should be on Com 13
I am using a Windows 7 32 bit.
Thanks

S8600 is only Qualcomm CPU as I know...
Which Firmware you have...
*#1234#
Btw. You could make please Screenshots from Menu... it seems little bit different...
Maybe somewhere else also to change... to have access to Qualcomm Diagnostic port...
Best Regards

Solution for 'Version unmatch' (I hope final)

I know that this topic has already been discussed many times in many threads (most in MTCD - Verified Cross compatible MCUs).
I also know that there is a known solution to this problem.
However, there are users who report that they still have a problem with that.
I am writing a new thread to present (I hope) the final solution "Version unmatch"
Remember.
The solution presented in the MTCD - Verified Cross compatible MCUs thread still applies:
1. Before uploading new MCU (dmcu.bin), first export your settings to the dmcu.cfg file (FactorySettings, button Export)
2. After uploading new MCU, restore your dmcu.cfg (file dmcu.cfg on SD card, then MCU Update)
Below is the link to the application that unlocks the device from "Version unmatch"
Code:
https://www.sendspace.com/file/ijmf13
This is Android app so you must install it on your device.
After install and run you should see screen similar to that:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Press UNLOCK button. After you should see notifaction like below:
Reboot your unit.
After that, "Version unmatch" should gone

vote for sticky!

Works great!
thank you

Very good work, Thanks

how to restore dmcu.cfg?
I place in root of drive before upgrade but was ignored.
I changed from LM to HA and had to manually set display and touch key settings
I had this version unmatched problem and was solved with the tool. thanks

For me, the version unmatch tool crashes every single time. Anyone else experience this? What to do now?!?!

Heard of anyone having an issue with their unit crashing when trying to run the app? Mine does. I even reinstalled it several times and even after a full restore, it still crashes. I have an H201.

does this app requires root ? can you please elaborate a little as how this app works ? as the app is not working it asks for reboot and comes back to menu.

Try to manually reboot. Go to the factory settings menu and type hctreboot (step 10).

same for me, Android 10 ,it crash everytime , there is an update ?

same issue , on Android 10 it crashes everytime

Yes I think a number of people have reported that. Keen to figure it out?

I'm proud to announce that i've found a way to disable that "version unmatch" by modifying the dmcu.img file. It has worked 3 times with 3 different files so i can confirm it work.
Without boring you with the details, what i've done was :
1. decompress the img file with mtcdmcutool , you obtain a dmcu.bin file.
2. open and decompile the file with Ghidra (see screenshot)
3. here i've found where the software check if the version is "unmatch" (by searching the strings into the file).
4. just before you can see a check (cmp param1,#0x0) and a jump in case it doesn't match (beq , etc etc..) , those strange words is called "assembler language".
5. at the end, simply re-compress the files into a valid dmcu.img file, and update your mcu like always.
My simple solution was to force that parm1 value to 0 , to do that i've modified the code from CMP to MOV param1,0x0 and so the jump happen everytime and you don't get the annoying message and the continuous "beep" of the autoradio. I'm actually using my android radio without issues.

It's in russian but you can see the file link, tried and it work.
I don't want to upload it here without the permission of the developer.

Thank you, i don't know if you believe me, but if searched alot to find the file. I even translated the 4pda.ru to search it.
Eh, thank you very much!

i got "error reading a file!" in mtcdmcutools while trying to convert it to .bin file.
how do i go from here? im using a stock dmcu.img file from xtrons.

In my case it says "illegal system!" additionally to the "Unmatch" Banner.
The Tool crashes right after it is opened, my touch screen only works on the upper slide part and there are no "Car Settings" in the Settings anymore..
Any idea what to do there?

Rename .bin file to update.zip
Follow installation instructions from this thread:
Kapitein187 said:
ADB-method:
1. Download SDK platform tools from here https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools
2. Extract them on your desktop.
3. Inside the extracted folder put the update.zip
4. Inside this folder, holding left shift, right click the mouse and select "open command prompt here". The command prompt will open.
5. Shutdown the phone.
6. Holding power+volume up buttons, enter into recovery mode.
7. Select "update via ADB". (you scroll down using the volume buttons and select using the power button).
8. Connect the phone to the PC using original samsung USB cable.
9. In the command prompt run the following command:
./adb devices
10. Wait to see that the daemon has started and that your device is found.
11. If you device is found, run the following command:
./adb sideload update.zip
The update process will start. You will see a percentage counting. First it will verify, then patch etc. Do not move the cable, disconnect the phone or power off the PC.
Once the process is completed (it takes some time) the phone will boot itself, update the apps and log into your home screen.
SD-card method:
1. Download the bin file and rename it to update.zip (by going to file options in win10 you can select to view the file extensions. This makes the renaming process much easier and safer, and avoids renaming the file to update.zip.zip)
2. Copy it to the root directory of your SDcard.
3. Shut down your phone.
4. Hold simultaneously Power+volume up buttons to get into stock recovery.
5. Using your volume keys navigate to "update via SdCard" and press power button to select it.
6. Again using volume keys navigate to the file "update.zip" and press power button to select it.
7. Update will start. Leave it till it completes. It will take some time.
8. Phone will reboot by itself and load android.

How to capture the update.zip file to share with other people:
1. Download HTTP canary app from playstore
2. Open HTTP Canary app
3. Start the update by pressing "download" and don't pause it
4. Go back to canary app and start it and it will grab the link for you

Hello, please post update.zip file

Good day, anyone was able to download the zip file? My CSC is XXA. I tried to do the trick of taken out my sim card and restarting my phone to see the notice come up in the members app but cannot enrol because I do not have a us simcard in my phone.

That's not how this works, unfortunately.
Some people END UP with Snapdragons outside US, i have a friend who i recently found out was on PIE.
It's logical that SIM Region and Actual Location match up.
The only way we can alleviate this is by finding out a way to spoof requests to Samsung's Servers (alla Frija) for OTA's with mocked locations, but i've never seen something like that.
That said, Snapdragon Beta testers seem to be as helpful as Samsung is to them, so far none of them have shared the package with us.

So build date is 20th October 2020. And this is ETJ3 (November).
Manually looking up for XAA with:
PDA: G975U1UEU4ZTKI
CSC:G975U1OYM4ZTKI
Phone: G975U1UEU4ZTKI
Gives me this:
SM-G975U1_7_20201112155200_rpfk7uveqc_fac.zip.enc4
So, build date is 12th November 2020. Build Date and release dates can differ up to two-three weeks. Weirdly though it reports Android 7.1.1 (which this device never had).
OP (@jeston ) Can you just check if the build date matches with yours in Software Information?

Looks like the build date is November 30...
I can't be the only one in the beta, nobody else has been able to join and grab the update.zip?

That's nice news, why is Frija able to download a November ROM when there isnt one built in that month (As i said, November release was built in October).
I could never do this before with Beta's or Test Firmwares on SamFirm or Frija, why is it suddenly reacting to the exact values of the Beta is a myth to me.

There are quite a few on reddit, but no one sniffed the package. Bummer.

That's not how this works, unfortunately.
Some people END UP with Snapdragons outside US, i have a friend who i recently found out was on PIE.
It's logical that SIM Region and Actual Location match up.
The only way we can alleviate this is by finding out a way to spoof requests to Samsung's Servers (alla Frija) for OTA's with mocked locations, but i've never seen something like that.
That said, Snapdragon Beta testers seem to be as helpful as Samsung is to them, so far none of them have shared the package with us.

I guess they were quite hasty so nobody thought about grabbing the update

I really hope someone grabs the update and upload the zip. Waiting for 3 months to get a feel of android 11 is just out of it.

I was on Android 10 so I factory data reset from stock recovery and flashed Android 11 with Patched ODIN
Odin 3.14.1 Patched (Modded) for windows - Odin download for pc​Share Odin3 Flash Tool: 0 Shares Facebook Twitter LinkedIn Copy Link More Now added Odin 3.14.1 Patched version for windows. It specially developed Samsung’s newer phone firmware flash with android 10. We assume this will be very useful, so we thought we would share it. Odin3 version 3.14.1 has...
Once flashed boot the phone and connect to WIFI the same WIFI the Windows PC is on
Unzip and Install the FRP tool with WinRAR ONLY
Disable the native Windows 10 antivirus (MAKE ALL GREEN CHECKS DISSAPPER)
Disable signatures verification from the FRP tool... it will ask you to reboot before running the tool.... DONT REBOOT YET
check anti virus again make sure its disabled
NEXT choose either of these methods to make sure signature verification is turned off...also has procedure to turn it back on when done
How to Disable Driver Signature Verification on 64-Bit Windows 8 or 10 (So That You Can Install Unsigned Drivers)​64-bit versions of Windows 10 and 8 include a “driver signature enforcement” feature. They’ll only load drivers that have been signed by Microsoft. To install less-than-official drivers, old unsigned drivers, or drivers you’re developing yourself, you’ll need to disable driver signature enforcement.

NOW REBOOT
It should have test mode listed on your desktop in the bottom right corner
GO to the windows security badge in task view area and check your antivirus status....there will be one its the main one turn it off
make sure phone is CHARGED FULLY powered ON, and connected to the same WIFI as the PC.... when u disabled signature it reset the Samsung drivers....
Connect to the PC with the best USB TYPE C cord you can...let windows set the phone up for file sharing (it prompt you just click on file transfer)... when it makes the windows connect noise and tells you setup is finished click the install button on the FRP tool....make sure you keep the phone screen unlocked and lit up... You will get a prompt on the phone click it to open up the youtube... click the account picture scroll to the bottom and there should be a link for PRIVACY POLICY click the link it will take you to the Real google search......ENTER THIS EXACTLY IN SEARCH BAR addrom click the first link it should say FRP tool 2021 or something similar
open galaxy store from the menu.....update the app if needed when its finished updating back out with back nav bar button...re-enter and search for Smartswitch install back out then open the settings app from same menu as before ... navigate to accounts and make sure there is nothing active.. if there is delete it... use the settings search bar and access Smartswitch.....
TIME FOR SECOND PHONE
on the other Android have smart switch from the playstore already installed and make sure the phone has only 1 GOOGLE account. It must be your Account that will be installed on the S20 FE... Make sure you are synced make sure its a clean reset phone no EdXposed, Magisk, or TWRP installed because its critical for the Smartswitch process...
LOG BOTH PHONES INTO SMARTSWITCH
The 2nd phone is the host and the receiver is the S20 FE
Send ONLY your GOGGLE Account AND DEVICE SETTINGS!!!! nothing more, thats all... I had no luck with OTG cable it didn't work trust me when I tell you choose the wireless method 1000% success.... once its done go to developer options and toggle usb debugging set a device pin or pattern make sure you install your Samsung account and Google account.... restore a back up from either cloud...IMPORTANT....
after the backup restores let the phone sit for about 5 seconds...lol.... factory reset from the settings menu.....when it boots back up its gonna be FRP locked AGAIN with your passcode....cheers...

And this worked on your device? I am a little bit sceptical about disabling antivirus. Suspicious
Maybe better to hide this guide, as it can be misused by thefts.

wouldn't they just reset the device rather than wanting to get into it as is ?
this is probably more use to the psycho girlfriend who wants to know who Janis is.

should this work with canadian model SM-G781W ?

FRP means Factory Reset Protection. You can probably guess what this guide is bypassing.

Ok, so you want people to download some random file, which VirusTotal shows like a billion different antivirus apps as infected?
Then you want people to disable their Windows antivirus AND driver signature verification?
And then you want people to use winrar(known to have security problems with scripts) to open a .7z file instead of 7zip, app which created that archive in the first place?
And then your instructions tell people to open youtube? right...
If anybody reading this thinks this works, please private message me because I have an amazing business proposition for a bridge for you!
