What is Russian Project?
Russian Project — is a constantly growing collection of utilities and tweaks for your iPhone (first generation as well as 3G) and iPod touch. Using of innovative technologies that do not alter the original system files it helps you solve common problems that arise while you use your iPhone in Russia.
Firmware 3.0 support — is in the works. Please expect an update in the near future.
Localization
Current firmware versions do include Russian localization; however, some of the phrases in the localization make us think if it was robot translated… Russian Project includes optional alternative localization that is done in a more correct way (and with love!) by Russians for Russians.

Contacts Search
The search bar in address book is quite unhandy. It truncates some letters and you cannot easily find the one you need. Our modification smartly groups least used letters together so you can switch to another section as quick as possible.

Phone Fix
Some local operators send the phone numbers for incoming calls as 8-123-456-7890 instead of standard +7-123-456-7890. This way, phone numbers from your address book do not get detected! Russian Project efficiently solves this problem.

System Font
Specifics of Russian language is that it is less compact compared to English. This means that the average word is longer and occupies more space on the screen. Because of this a well-known company ParaType developed a font named Rip Dev which is more compact as compared to standard Helvetica, thus allowing better integration with Russian language.

Keyboard Modifications
Unfortunately autocorrection is not perfect for Russian language yet and often is more of an obstacle than a helper. Russian Project allows an option to turn off autocorrection and adds a new feature that enables slight vibration feedback when you press virtual keyboard letters. Try it by yourself!

Operator Logos
Adds logotypes for various local operators. All logos are developed by us in conformance with the operator's brandbooks.
