Traveling the world is the dream of countless people from all over Earth. People from the west want to go east and vice versa. People from the north think about going south and vice versa.
As we’ve talked about previously, there aren’t many better apps than GlobeTrotter to use if you plan on traveling across this humble planet of ours and, with a couple of recent updates, it hasn’t gotten anything but better.
XDA Member wariat has been making as much progress as possible to make GlobeTrotter the premier app for travelers, with points of interest and language support for many countries. Very recently, wariat has added a huge update to GlobeTrotter, which includes even more languages supported and an update list of points of interest for the following countries:
Italy
United States
Canada
France
Germany
Spain
South Africa
England
Switzerland
Austria
Australia
Hungary
New Zealand
Finland
Bulgaria
Holland
Belgium
Portugal
So for those who intend on traveling abroad in the near future and want an app on their phone that’ll help them get acquainted with their new surroundings, you can find the original thread for the app here for links to the Market app, screen shots and a full list of the updates.

XDA Senior Member Azdian has developed a nice little mod that will add RTL (right to left) language support for Amazon Kindle Fire users.
The process is a little complicated and involves switching out a few lib files. So if you’re not confident with fiddling with the framework of the device, make sure you do some homework and get comfortable with it before attempting as messing up can damage your device. Be sure, as always, to perform a full back up just in case.
The process is otherwise not complicated, as Azdian says:
*Download Madmack RTL Patacher HERE, then extract the files, you will see some subfolders and files what you need to remember is input and output subfolders and command.exe for later use.
*Go to your kindle open Root Explorer [or any app can do the same] and copy these files from your kindle to your pc
*move these files to input subfolder , and then run commands.exe DO NOT close the black cmd screens that will pop up, wait till its finish, once its done you will find these files in the output subfolder
So if you’re of the Arabic, Persian, Hebrew, etc persuasion and want the RTL support on your Kindle Fire, you can find the download links, the complete instructions and further information in its original thread.
