Hebrew on Smartphone 2002 (SPV)

[Guest ranzz]

So from what I understand, the people who are writing full Hebrew support software are the same people developing it for all the handhelds that are running MS software (PPC...).

I also got hold of information saying they have already finished working on Hebrew for the E100 which is suppose to be sold here some time in the future, but they won't sell the software as they only wrote it for the E100's supplier here in Israel.

To tell you the truth, I don't care much for a Hebrew phone, I like my menus in English, but what bothers me most is people sending my Hebrew messages I can't read cause they are used to me having a Hebrew enabled phone.

And to the subject - there has to be some way to put a Hebrew font on the phone and tell the SMS client to use that phone, instead of what he uses regulerly.

Now there's two problems in doing that:

1. Will it be a font from the Windows fonts folder? I have no idea if the fonts on Windows and on Smartphone is the same kind of file (I believe it could be, couldn't it?). if it isn't the same format, where can I get or make a font with Hebrew characters?

2. Telling the SMS client to use that font, I didn't see it in the settings, have I missed it? well if it doesn't exist in the settings, will it be possible through the registry? are there font keys?

You can just shoot all the ideas and suggestions you have :)

P.S I got my 256MB SD card and I hard reset the phone, which disposed me of the SMS(44) on the homescreen that wouldn't go away. yay!

It is interesting, really did catch my be suprise, but I was disappointed to see that I can only see Hebrew within the actual program, and that this hasn't affected any of the Hebrew text on the phone.

Emailed the developer to see if he has any ideas.

In the meanwhile, I'm already one stop ahead, as I have an active font from the Windows fonts dir, on the phone, and capable of displaying Hebrew text!

All I gotta do now is make the SMS client use that font! has anyone seen any keys for the SMS font in the registry? I never used a regeditor on Smartphone...

Of course any other ideas other than regediting for the default font will also be welcomed!
