Finally, my iPhone displays Hebrew fonts again
UPDATE (3/23/2009):
This method no longer works. Information about the new method can be found in this post.
Original post starts here:
Thanks to ziPhone and Hebrew BidiSupport, I like my iPhone (ver 1.1.3 1.1.4) again…
It is amazing how simple & quick this process was compared to what it used to be a few months ago. No need to downgrade/upgrade/use iBricker etc. With ziPhone all you need to do is plug your iPhone, check a few boxes (unlock/activate/jailbreak), run and after 3 minutes the process is over.
Once you are done with jailbreaking/unlocking, use the Installer to add a new source: http://repo.hebrew4iphone.com . Then refresh the list of sources and under the “Install” menu look for a new category called “Hebrew 4 iPhone”. Once you find it, install Bidi Support (1.1.3/1.1.4) and Hebrew Keyboard (which uses Russian keyboard).
After installing, restart your iPhone, select Settings>General>Keyboards>International Keyboard and turn on Russian keyboard. Then, whenever you have the keyboard open, you can use the globe button (left to space bar) to toggle between English and Hebrew.
Big Thanks to iPhones.co.il
