Hi there,
I'm having trouble viewing Unicode Tamil Characters in my new nexus phone
I have already changed the encoding to UTF-8 in the browser settings
eg:http://www.bbc.co.uk/tamil/
This is really embarrassing as I did not have any issue viewing them on my iphone
Thanks,

Is this a duplicate of
na...@google.com
I don't think so. The report implies that the apps installed fine (not a dexopt or a dex2oat failure) and the issue showed up when the app was uninstalled and reinstalled again.
cor....., can you confirm ? Do you see an dexopt / dex2oat failures in the log the first time the app is installed ?

Please support Tamil fonts in android, I am also waiting for Tamil fonts in my Nexus one, this is a serious drawback for me because most of my browsing and my friends Tweet are in Tamil, and my friends using iPhone are able to view the tamil font without any issues. please include this font.
Thanks

I too need TELUGU language support very badly,
The solution has to come directly from Google, coz the Unicode set is quite differnt from Telugu(Other Indian languges) and European languages ... I think Indisms developer applications which helped with symbian platform has to enter android to go further ..!
Thanks in Advance.

Open the address about:config in your opera mini browser. This will open the browser’s option page.
Scroll down until you see something like this: Use bitmap fonts for complex scripts.
Set the above option value to yes and then click on Save button.
All the web traffic from Opera Mini browser goes through Opera’s proxy servers, which optimize the web content for mobile experience. As I said above, Opera Mini does not have the capability to render complex scripts in mobile. So, by setting the above option, we are letting the Opera’s proxy servers to render the complex scripts as images and send those images to mobile browser. Thus you’ll see the regional content as images, instead of fonts.
so we need the andriod platform to support tamil/telugu etc unicode fonts to support, like this many reasons are there, that is why still andriod cannot take iphones place.

it is a shame on Google & Android as as on date they donot support INDIC languages especially when they are in so-called UNICODE encoding.
Also it is disgusting to note the South indians who claim to be the "IT Brains" of india are yet to develop any application & put into the Android Market which will enable to read Indic language contents in the text messgaes,e-mail messages, word files etc.
Thank god , at least there is a short cut to view Tamil Web pages in tamil script(may not be a font but an image) thru Opera mini Browser.
It is a high time that Android &/ Google wake up and support INDIC languages, if not Symbian s will capture the market.
any one ,who can share any development in this is requested to contact me at vganapathy1000@gmail.com

At least Google can provide a font that has glyphs for Tamil / other Indic languages as iPhone provided until they gave full rendering support on iOS4. If font size is a concern they should give an option at least for a normal user to replace a system font with a font they would like to see. I don't think people at Google are not aware of all these things, I believe it is just neglected that they think they do not want an Indian market share for Android as of today.

android has been launched ...over a couple years...alot tamil apps are in market, opera browser does Tamil. Freaking apple's Ios does everything in Tamil! Why google...why...why in the world are we still waiting... Since android 1.5 & then 1.6, ...eclair...froyo...& now gingerbread...does gingerbread support global fonts...unicode fonts? Please answer...
na...@vertile.com
I am not from Google, but I can answer that Gingerbread does not support Tamil. Since development is closed and Google is mum about these things, we won't know if it would be in Honeycomb until it's release time. Just finished testing Gingerbread and noted that Hindi does not work even thought the release notes claim otherwise.
ch...@gmail.com
guys, There is a Tamil browser in the Android Market . It is still in the early phase but able to see some tamil sites like dinamalar etc. I am still evaluation it. Its a paid app so I guess the developer will definitely put more into it.

I use opera mini to read Tamil websites on my android. But it is a real shame that android has not come up with the Unicode support by itself. If google is really serious about Indian market, then it should be done as a priority.Until then iPhone would rule the roost.

Android is becoming best choice for OS in smartphones and tablets. For being popular in India, it must provide Indic languages support.
We people want to buy Android powered phones and tablets but can't buy till Hindi language support is available.

Recently bought G2 phone & Galaxy tab both running android 2.2. It is a disappointment to see that the browser doesn't support Tamil unicode. Apple iOS and other mobile OSs support tamil fonts. Why not android? Please do support Tamil unicode as soon as possible. It is already too late for android not to support indic languages.
ar...@gmail.com
more number of people must star this issue, also many Indians not aware about these problems, so we need more people support, so that this will go to top priority and android team will solve this

Looking forward to see telugu and other indic language support on my Galaxy S.
Per my understanding... Android has some kernel level problem for supporting Indic languages. Hope it will be fixed soon.

....Gingerbread does not support...Is Honeycomb ready for tamil and other regional languages? Why is it taking so long? Android is taking a plunge into the indian market and why is there still an issue?
Description
If have two apps that exhibit this symptom Octave (com.octave) and GNURoot (champion.gnuroot).
The most sure fire way to see this issue is to:
0) on 4.4.2 (most sure what all version show this issue, but this one does).
1) Install GNURoot
2) Create rootfs of each type (aboriginal, wheezy, fedora and gentoo), you will need to install 1 app per type (champion.gnuroot.aboriginal, champion.gnuroot.wheezy, champion.gnuroot.fedora and champion.gnuroot.gentoo).
3) Uninstall all 5 apps in the normal way.
4) Try to reinstall GNURoot (champion.gnuoot)
It should then fail
If you only create one rootfs, say wheezy, and then uninstall everything, it seems to work.
Another way to get out of this mess seems to be manually deleting the /data/data/champion.gnuroot* folders, but that only works if you root your device.
Please advise.
