Install Khmer font on Galaxy S2 without rooting the system

I got successfully installed Khmer Unicode on my Galaxy S2 (Android 2.3.6) without rooting system but Khmer character is not well rendering that needs a bit more patient to wait for Android upgrade.

Phone Spec. & Font Setting

Here is what I did by following the instruction from KhmerType blog:

  1. Enable “unknown sources” installation (via Setting->Application)
  2. Install Khmer.apk
  3. Change font style
    1. Settings > Display > Screen display > Font style
    2. Choose Khmer
  4. Restart the phone
  5. Testing: Go to this website page: http://khnews.info/testing.html
  6. To write Khmer, download Khmer keyboard from Android Market: Phum Keyboard or MultiLing Keyboard
  7. To enable input keyboard:
    1. Settings > Languages and keyboard > Select input method
    2. Choose: Phum Keyboard (in my case)

After you should be able to see everything in Khmer even though the rendering is not fine, you can type Khmer Unicode as well.

    តើប្រើ Windows អីគេ? XP or Win7? Office 2003 or 2007? ករណី​បែប​នេះ​ធម្មតា​ជួប​នៅ Version Office XP or 2003 ព្រោះបញ្ហា Install file usp10.dll ក្នុង Windows/System32 មិនត្រូវ​ version។ សូម Install KhmerUnicode 2.x ហើយ​ប្រើ Patch file: usp10.dll ទីនោះ​ទៅ ប្រហែលនឹងអាចកែ​កំហុសនេះបាន។
