Mozilla/5.0 (Android;Linux armv7l;rv:10.0a1)Gecko/20110929 Firefox/10.0a1 Fennec/10.0a1
Device: HTC Desire
OS: Android 2.2.
Steps:
1. On desktop client (Firefox 6.0.2) go to http://news.google.co.il/nwshp?nomo=1
2. On device, start nightly, download and instal the arabic language pack, then set up a sync with the desktop client
3. On device, wait till sync ends, open awesome screen and check the desktop tab.
Expected: The link visited at step 1 should be properly displayed - Page title and link
Actual: The arabic characters from the page title are not displayed correctly.
Note: The same page title is properly displayed in the ULR bar and All Pages tab.
Please see the attached screenshots.

Can you test with google.ae? Google.il is Israel -> Hebrew and not Arabic.

Made a mistake when added the first link in bug.
Actually, this is the link that I used: http://news.google.ae/nwshp?nomo=1. This link also appears in the attached screenshots.

Can the stock browser render the page correctly?

> Can the stock browser render the page correctly?
The page is rendered correctly by the stock browser and by Fennec. The only problem is that the Title of this page is not displayed correctly under Fennec's desktop tab after sync.

CC-ing some folks who might shed a light on this.

This looks like a problem with missing charset metadata - the desktop tab is treating the UTF-8 text in the Arabic titles as if it's an 8-bit encoding (most likely Latin-1).

It seems that's the same issue for the Romanian Language pack.
