Root Is there a way to read other language/font on esteem?

[surdeep]

Hey Guys is there any way to read native fonts on Esteem. Like i try to read sm things on fb on phone and since its a foreign font its just boxes.

You could try this http://droidforums.net/forum/droid-...s-installing-new-fonts-foreign-languages.html

but the mount point is
mount -o rw,remount -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p12 /system

You could try this Instructions on installing new fonts for foreign languages

but the mount point is
mount -o rw,remount -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p12 /system

Thankyou very much. I just have 1 question. Isn't this process same as copy pasting the font in the fonts folder after renaming it??

Are you looking for something to automatically convert a foreign language? i honestly dont think there is anything like that. Well havent been able to find one if thats what you are looking for.

i am not looking for automatic.. i just want anyway to do it. For example i cannot read sm stuff on fb that is posted in foreign language neither can i type in any foreign language. So i was just wondering if there is any way to read that stuff or to type in foreign language..

Perhaps a search in Android Market under the name of the desired language, surdeep. There are "language packs," which transform your onscreen keyboard and the menus to the target language, perhaps there are apps that can assist you "on the fly," with selections as you browse Facebook, etc.

Ha I think I may have found you something. Try this out: FLV - Foreign Language Viewer


Ahh just realized it only supports Arabic and Hebrew tho.
