Description Amir E. Aharoni 2012-01-13 19:10:47 UTC
If i understand correctly, the title of the icon that runs the app can be localized: "Wikipedia" in English, "Wikipedie" is Czech, "Viquipèdia" in Catalan etc. In Hebrew it's supposed to be written in the Hebrew script: "ויקיפדיה".

Today i saw that on Samsung Galaxy S with the Hebrew (iw) locale it indeed appears in Hebrew. However, on my phone (Sony Xperia Neo) it appears in English, even though my locale is Hebrew.

I'm not sure why it happens, but maybe it has something to do with the fact that i cannot switch to the Hebrew (iw) locale using this phone's settings menu, but have to use the MoreLocale app that was installed for me when i bought it.

I can reproduce this using MoreLocale 2 on my Nexus 1 (Android 2.3.6, no default Hebrew locale). Tried both iw_IL and he_IL (seems to go with iw either way).

I can see Hebrew in a couple places (like the Market app) so it's definitely taking, but not picking up on our app.

... aha looks like I need to copy values-he dir to values-iw maybe.
