It is possible to write hebrew in a english/chinese k3 note?
Thanks

To add new font, you should try to root your lenovo first.

need your help
Hi,
try to rot the device, and copy the fons into 2 places:
1) create "fonts" directory under system
2) in the folder in operting system folder

hi,
i downloaded the file from your post and it worked just fine but ever since half of my apps close right after i open them including browsers i tried to re-install them but nothing , the weird thing is they all work just fine when i turn off wi-fi and data connection
please, reply . thank you

Where should i find system/font ? I only see .system (starts with dot character)
Hi all,
I finally managed to root!!! yey.
BUT
Can't see any "system" folder in my phone root folder, only one named ".system" but not any folder inside
Can you guide me to locate or create the font folder?
Thanks in advanced
Israel

did not work for me
I extracted the zip file to my computer and then created font folder under system in my K3 and copied all 74 files to this folder.
It did not help.
What did I do wrong?
Thanks
Eli

can't create folder
just copy all this fonts to system --> font[/QUOTE]
hi
i can't create te foldet to put the fonts
(the phone is rooted )

worked perfect.
download the zip file from an earlier post, take the 2 .tff files that include the word 'Hebrew' in them.
copy these 2 files to your system storage somewhere you'll remember.
now use a file browser on your device to access the Root 'System' folder (i just used Root Explorer) and copy the 2 files from the location and paste them into System/Fonts. (YES, of course you have to be rooted to do this)
change the permission to rw-r--r-- like all the other files.
reboot.
Hebrew is great in the system now.

can't find the fonts
I've tried doing what is written here to no avail.
I have rooted my phone and copied a hebrew.ttf file into the system\font and it is not working.
The file referred to earlier isn't available. Is there a specific font that works?

[theming help] Genie widget flashable.zip

hi I need some help with theming:
im having a hard time with the genie widget.apk. I´ve seen elsewhere that the gw should be flashed to System/apps but that not the case with my phone.On my htc desire it should be DATA/apps and I just can´t make a flashable.zip I get an error everytime(error at line1 something). I use a zipsign tool which works fine with system/apps maybe I need another tool, which leads me to my next question:
How do I make a flashable file where I move files to SDCARD / SYSTEM / DATA ?

Alright this you will love I had same problems search for Update Zip Creator 2.0 by Daneshm90 you will love it and as far as flashing data/app/ it doesn't work you have to know how to make your update script install with permissions otherwise they just get copied in the right folder and don't work.

thats actually the tool i´m using by default , however I dont know how to make files copy over to Data/app and I also dont know how to make the zip creator move files to sdcard. I´ve only managed to use the updatezip creator to write to System/app, System/media and System/framework.
what should i do to get an update.zip with folders system / data / sdcard?
When I was trying I gave up when I would edit the generated update script I would get as syntax error what I started doing was put the data apps in a folder named Extra_apps or the theme name like Blue_Steel then tell update zip creator copy directories SDCARD then folder name and folder name again I wish I could help more but its something I'm trying to learn myself I believe w are going to have to learn to write the script manually I have asked on the update creator thread also never got an answer excuse the spelling on my phone thank god for swype..lol

How to change icon apps on the app drawer? (rooted)

I'm trying to change the icons on the app drawer with Root Explorer but I can't find the correct PNG to replace that on the system/app/"application.apk"/res/drawable/_____.png
Anyone knows the right name of the icon?
Thanks!
res/drawable-hdpi/file_manager_r.png ypu will have to turn the apk into a zip then put your new file into the hdpi folder and change the zip back to an apk then re install
Can I follow this steps with the Captivate or I need to do this on the computer?
Any easy way?
Thanks for the tip!
hi, i changed an image in drawable-hdpi in "phone.apk" (ic_jog_dial_unlock.png) like aceman said, but if i try to install new phone.apk it says "application not installed" (or something similar, my language phone is not english). how can i install new phone.apk??
I tried to istall it from recovery and there is the same result
thanks
You have to push the phone.apk file into /system/app with a root explorer or adb. Just installing it won't work like most other apks.
i have "root browser", can i use it? can u say to me all the steps i have to do with it or adb? i'm not an android expert user...
up...anyone ca help me?
install a different launcher app that lets you customize it. try launcherpro from the android market.
you wont understand the mod instructions.
screw it here they are...
mod instructions... basic if you need more info. learn to search there are 4000 guides on how to change an app image.
you need winrar on windows. if you arent running windows you should know better.
use root level file manager to go to 'system/app' folder and copy your launcher.apk to sdcard.
copy to PC
right click .apk > open with... > choose program > WinRar
look through folders inside APK and copy all folders with .PNG images to desktop (or work folder)
look through the images in the folders (change veiw to thumbnails) and find the name of the image you want to change and the name of the folder it was in.
Go get, or create your custom image, and name it that name. **Close to original shape size.
Use winRar to open the .APK again and naviage to the place where your image goes and drop the new one into that folder.
A window with options will come up and select Compression Profile : STORE
Click ok
Close winrar.
Copy .apk to SDcard
Use root file manager to rename original /system/app/launcher.apk to launcher.apk.bak (backup)
Then copy your modded .apk to /system/app.
Reboot (pull battery)
DONT MESS WITH ANY IMAGE ENDING IN .9.PNG only regular .pngs
for more on .9.pngs... search google.. what is ....
i*have*to*modify*phone.apk,*no*launcher.apk..*i*just*did*steps*you*sayd,*but*if*i*try*to*rename*phone.apk,*my*nexus*goes*in*full*crash
fist off this is the Captivate forums. not nexus.
and i was giving help to OP question not yours. either way the *stars*and*sp ac*es are friggin annoying. use your computer if your phone is messed up.
if you "tried" to modify the name... DID IT? try doesnt tell me much.
if it wouldnt let you, then nothing changed and your phone is screwed up from something else.
if it DID rename, then CHANGE IT BACK.. duh.
sorry for space and *, i wrote it with the mouse using google translate keybord and i saw them when i cut/past the text
i "tried" to rename phone.apk, so the phone went in a full crash and i had to restore system using an old backup in recovery

Try apktool to extract all replace wteva ocon u want to and rebuild apk using the same tool and u need to sign the apk usin signapk tool so that device can recognise the.apk file for installation. I have done this and everything went fine in galaxy note. But i couldn't locate the file to rename the icon. Icon changing was not a prob.

1. get a file explorer with root
2. download this font pack here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...ont-pack-966-fonts-one-apk-s6-s6edge-t3154336 (or this, link from same thread: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24407100847292972)
3. extract it, navigate to SamsungSans folder and copy it
4. copy the folder + font apk file to your sd card or usb otg
5. open up root explorer, give it root permission, make sure it is r/w and not r/o, and then navigate to /system/app/ (make sure again its r/w and not r/o)
6. copy SamsungSans there
7. change file permissions, SamsungSans folder = rwxrwxr-x, but the APK file change it to rw-r-r
8. reboot
9. you should be able to use any font available as you wish now
EDIT: SORRY just realized you said you're NOT rooted. my apologies, but i'll leave the guide there for anyone who wants to change fonts but dont know how to (on rooted devices)
for your case, due to samsung needing to have some sort of digital signature in order to use 3rd party fonts, the only way for you is to buy them on the store.

[REQUEST] Stock Keyboard Application along with .ODEX files please

Hi everyone!
I currently have the Galaxy S6 running 7.0 on the May update (G920TUVU5FQE1)
I accidentally hit the delete button on my Root Explorer app instead of Cut, and deleted the folder containing my keyboard (SamsungIMEv5_SYSTEMUID)
Ive done some heavy modifications to the system which is why I dont want to reflash the firmware to fix this, so can someone please send me their folder from the "system/app" so I can use my phones keyboard again please
(the folder might have the .ODEX file as well, please just send the whole folder)
I appreciate it in advance!
Happy Modding!
