@Mitre, re arabic language file.

I have looked at the files on Dave's Excel using android commander but am unsure precisely what I am looking for.
I have also dug around the system files with android using SU priviliges but I can find nothing which remotely makes me think it is an arabic language file. Because I remained uncertain but still having the opportunity to compare Dave's Scroll available language settings to my own Scroll available language settings which has never been modified, I find they are unfortunately both exactly the same.

I will only have access to my original purchase Scroll for comparison for a few more weeks as I am due to pass it on to my Grandson as his birthday present. I have decided that of the two Scrolls in my possession I want to keep Dave's Scroll as my own. He was an amazing character and greatly missed by so many who knew and loved him.

So unless you think I may have missed something, it looks like Dave can't help on this one. (got to be a first) :(
However, if you want a copy of the language files from Dave's Excel to check yourself for certain then I am afraid you will have to give me a How-To and I will certainly co-operate.
If it isn't broken then don't try to fix it!

Sorry to but in, why not download a keyboard and a language pack with it via Google Play, then activate it via settings

Attached is a nicely laid out keyboard and an arabic language pack to suit.

Install the anysoft keyboard arabic language pack, install the anysoft keyboard, then just deactivate english in the keyboard settings.

I'm probably talking out of my rear-end here but surely that sounds like more of a font problem?
