Q: 

BlackBerry: Are there any examples on how to localize BB apps for right-to-left languages like Arabic, Hebrew?

I want to localize my Blackberry app to use Arabic language which is right-to-left. I am using SDK 4.5 because I want my app to be forward compatible. I read in this article guidelines for rtl localization. However, none of their suggestions worked (FIELD_LEADING, USE_ALL_WIDTH and isLeftToRight). What should I do exactly to make my fields (Labels and ObjectChoiceFields) align correctly to the right of screen? Are there examples?

A: 

These are features of the 6.0 OS, so they won't work on 4.5. Yes, they really are that far behind.
