Finally today i get to know how to make Android render telugu font. Its a bit complicated if you are not a geek. Just download Droidsansfallback from here. Then copy the font file to /system/fonts folder of the phone. Restart the phone. Thats it. The telugu font should be rendered in the browser and in gmail. Its actually fun to read telugu mails in mobile.
The condition is, the phone has to be rooted. If the phone is rooted, then you can copy the font using the font installer app from android. Or you could use ADB to do all the stuff.
If you dont know what's rooting means...then go through this link once http://lifehacker.com/5339901/get-root-access-in-android-with-one-click
Thats not all, there is maltiling keyboard in Market which will enable us to type telugu in mobile. But its like the old Telugu Typewriter, too hard to manage, if it is any easier i would be tweeting in telugu by now.
