hi,
to install Arabic font(still not connected) and Arabic keyboard
1.uninstall summerboard if you have it
2. go to this site http://www.shahbic.com/iphone/ar.plist from your iphone and it will ask you to download accept
3. in installer(apptap) under localization install 1>mobile Enchancer 2>arabic keyboard 3>arabic font
4.reboot iphone
5. before typing upload this file http://www.shahbic.com/iphone/keyboard.zip in /applications/preferences.app/ (for MAC users use cyberduck)(for windows use ibrickr)
6. reboot
7. from your iphone go to settings>general>keyboard> autocorrection off
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
the letters are not connected and sometimes its from left to right but at least the font is readable
i am using this way until iphone4arab.com releases the new app ein

you can install arabic keyboard even with the summerboared installed.

but if you couldn't install the keyboard then you have to uninstall the summerboared and install it again after installing the arabic keyboard....

Best to u all,

I installed this on 1.0.2 but having two problems.

1. when I type final characters apear as midle characters. Also isolated cgaracters appear as midle characters. For example isolated kaf appears like midle kaf.

2. When finished typing after tapping on send it sentence flips (turns to from right to left) and get saved but on the other side everything is OK. Also someone send me a sms it comes to me wity characted changed as I explained in 1.

Any one has installed this on 1.0.2 with success?
I really need this to work

I have attached a screen shot of 1.

arabic.PNG

and 2.

arabic2.PNG

Also I attached a screen shot of the notes app and the problem happes. If you look at the title (circled with red line) it shows text in flip (reversed)
