We have been trying so hard to get Khmer Unicode to work on Android OS, but still no result at the time of this writing. However, we have a good news here, we still be able to browse some Khmer websites using legacy font via Nokorsoft andorid proxy.

Example

http://www.nokorsoft.com/aos.php?url=http://www.dap-news.com/

So replace http://www.dap-news.com/ with your prefer website address.

Note:  I embedded Limon S1 font to Khmer Websits, thus only some websites will work using this trick .  This trick is tested on Android OS 1.5 but I expect it to work on Android 2.2 as well. 2.1 does not…

David Wang, a member of the iPhone Dev Team, domonstrated Android OS running on a hacked iPhone in a Youtube video clip. He used OpeniBoot (Linux boot) to boot Android OS image on his hacked iPhone. Android OS for iPhone (iPhone Linux/iDroid) is still in its public testing version at time of writing; thus, slow and buggy performance is expected.

Update (02/06/10): The wait for Android OS 2.2 is over. Google released Android OS 2.2 in May, Android 2.2 platfrom SDK is available to download at http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html.

Unfortunately, based on my test performed on Android 2.2 Emulator, Android 2.2 doesn’t support Open Type features in Khmer Unicode font. But what surprised me was that Android 2.2 supports webfont (embeded font). So it is possible to read Khmer on websites using Khmer legacy CSS3 webfont technology.
