Question Hebrew firmware

[TalChoen]

How to make Hebrew firmware at mi band 3:
1. Make sure you got Mi Fit version 3.5.3 ( if not uninstall old Mi fit from your phone and go to step 2)
2 Install Mi Fit version 3.5.3 (skip if you already at this version):
Mi Fit 3.5.3 | Apps | GeekDoing
3. Flash custom English fw Firmware 2.0.0.4 | English Bold Font | Xiaomi Mi Band 3 | GeekDoing
4. Install Notify & Fitness:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mc.miband1&hl=en
5. Change band language in Notify & Fitness (latest version) to Arabic
6. Uninstall Mi Fit - if you want to keep RTL notifications

Notice: if you want to get all the features from Notify & Fitness you have to buy it ( 3 dollars \ 12 nis)

Enjoy

[TalChoen]

is it possible only to add Hebrew font meanwhile so we can see notification ( until full translation)? i think this is the problem for most of the people.

Just flashed 1.3.0.4 custom firmware Kiril made and..it has support for Hebrew font..! (the new font for the English firmware is capable of showing hebrew letters) but everything is upside down.
excellent start. thanks Kiril

Upside down? Maybe it is left to right (instead of right to left as it should be in Hebrew) ?

left to right, letters in the wrong order

 

[Kirill]

left to right, letters in the wrong order

Then we need to reverse letters in translation. It will be ok then on Mi Band

 

[tomerr]

for example, this should read:
אולי2
while on screen it shows
ילוא

 

[TalChoen]

strange, why do you still have these ?? characters? kiril, did you put the Hebrew font yourself or is it comes with the new firmware update? and the reverse letters in translation is a phone software update or firmware?
Do you need any help?
thanks alot

Thanks in advance

@abdaid could you please check if you see arabic letters as well with this firmware?

Hebrew and Arabic are going left to right? In MB3 firmware text goes right to left, so it needs to be fixed.

the opposite, Hebrew & Arabic read from right to left. you can see in the image I posted above that currently all words are going from left to right

Hmm okey. Talk to Kirill

Hi @Kirill ! Thanks for your work.

Any news regarding the Hebrew letters order?
If things weren't clear, it's not that the text DIRECTION is an issue, but the letters' order is reverse. For example, a Hebrew word that should be spelled "HELLO", appears as "OLLEH".

I think he got it... Im thinking that rtl support will not be available in the near future so dont look for hebrew translation mean while.

I will test compiling Hebrew FW tomorrow. Although notifications will be in the wrong order (LTR), menu will be RTL I think.

if you could fix the current situation in English fw where text appear in wrong direction - that would be so much better than menu RTL & translation

Thanks for your hard work man
