Bold's OS release that support Arabic

**Sahran** · 11-03-2008, 02:21 AM

Hey guys,

I just want to know which OS release that supports Arabic and how to get it, coz i heard that Etisalat (UAE) released Bold that supports arabic and with keypad that has english and arabic characters. Also, i want to know where to get Bold OEM keypad with Arabic characters.

Thanks.

All Mutli-language OS from any carrier supports Arabic, and other languages, (Read and Write)
You can use the one by rogers, 162 or the one by ATT 167, they both work and supports arabic.

As for the keyboard, your only luck would be your local carrier like etisalat.

Hope it helps

Tamoraa,

Here's the link just choose any cell provided under "Middle East" and follow instruction, this will download the OS for the provided you choose, and since its a Multilanguage OS it will give you options to add Arabic, and a bunch of other languages.

Make sure you backup your BB before you load this onto it.
