Weird behaviour of the locale - Hero, G2 Touch General

I've found something interesting in the latest 2.1 and 2.2 MoDaCos.
I'm not using the English locale since 2.0 and what's weird is that some settings stopped working.
In particular, if I enable the mobile network setting, that has no real effect.
If i switch back to the English locale, then it works.
Same thing with spare parts-->animation.
Is there anyone noticing the same kind of issue?

[Q] [Market]App description in wrong language

Hy
I just stumbled upon a problem. Some of the apps probably those that have multiple descriptions (in different languages) are in the wrong language (eg. Galaxy on Fire 2 is in German language).
The description is either in German, English, French or Russian which is odd because they are just fine on market.android.com and this didn't use to happen until I went on a trip to Croatia.
I don't know if that has anything to do with it but I have tried disabling GPS location, Wifi location (I cleared Market settings every time and closed it).
I've also used morelocale2 without any success.
Does anyone have any clue as to how to proceed?

I just bought the A500 last friday and also noticed this.
No custom rom or updates installed (no updates available for me in the Netherlands)
Any idea is welcome
The odd thing is that the languages are changing.
I just rechecked and my test subject (GOF2) is in Italian now.
have you got the location settings switched on? I have mine switched off and I am seeing these issues as well.
I have tried turning them off and every combination I could think of (wifi only, GPS only, both off, both on).
I get japanese every now & then, and i'm in Aus.
This seems to be a known problem with the new Market. I'm seeing the same thing on my Thunderbolt with 3.X Market(WP7 style)
Yup, me too
I'm seeing this as well. Only under Android 3 (it's fine on my N1 for example). Looks like languages shift, and are different for different people. I know that because I noticed it for my own app (which obviously worried me -- I thought I'd messed up somewhere), but an American user of my app (Photo Enhance Pro HD) sees Italian on her tablet, whereas I see Greek (and another language again on the free version of the app).
It looks to be recent? I can't see a reference to this problem before the 14th July, so hopefully it's a screw-up at the server end and can be fixed soon. If only contacting someone who could fix it wasn't so much a case of mentioning the problem on forums and hoping someone is listening...

[Q] Autocorrect stopped working

I'm running Tiamat 2.0 and it was rebooting randomly so I installed the 2.01 version. Then wifi quit working. Wiped and reinstalled 2.0 and wifi started working but now autocorrect doesn't work! Any suggestions?
I wish this worked as well as my wife's Transformer!

You're kind of thrashing around trying to fix things by reflashing roms, but some of these problems you are having are known issues with simple fixes---if you'd just read the threads for the Roms you are flashing, you'd know that random reboots are mostly caused by setting the WiFi sleep policy to anything other than NEVER in settings. Hammerhead Rom had a fix for that in it but maybe it doesn't work for everyone.
Also the stock browser and stock keyboard can act buggy sometimes-so either download a different browser/keyboard from the market to try out (there some really good ones) and/or re-boot on occasion, just to refresh the system. It seems the keyboard gets laggy without regular reboots and maybe that has also affected the auto correct, although that could be due to something else altogether. I doubt that it's Rom related though.
Good luck solving your problems.
Thanks...haven't had much luck searching these forums. I have downloaded other keyboards but that hasn't solved the problem. It now appears that the dictionary is empty. When I turn on the option to display suggestions as I type, I see only names of people in my contact list. So...now I search for that solution...or I'll just flash another ROM... I just don't have the time to research every problem I have had and in my experience newer ROMs fix most of the issues I've had anyway.
Still a problem!
So nobody else has seen this problem? I can recreate it every time!
I restored my user dictionary from a backup and now I can see the words that should be autocorrected in the preview line above the keyboard. However, when it underlines the correct word and I press the spacebar...where it used to select the underlined word, it now ignores it and does not perform the autocorrect even though it knows what it should do...
This is driving me crazy now! Suggestions?
Thanks.

Keyboard update 10/2

Anyone else see this? Does anyone know the specifics on what the update does?
Sent from my LG-D851 using XDA Free mobile app
Where do you see it?
Yep, got it two days ago. I have since switched to SwiftKey. No desire to try it.
i would like to know also
Just got the notification this afternoon and downloaded it. I switched back to SwiftKey a few days ago, but the LG keyboard did have promise, so I'll check it out soon.
No idea what has been updated.
Seems like European D855 never get keyboard updates. Isn't even listed in app updates.
Today my european d855 got the new keyboard..
Isn't there new features to set collor of the keybord and keyboard hight etc.. Its good changes.

whats the version number?
It's 5.0.27.
I find it laggier, but need to test it more to be sure.
Just updated it. Can't notice any difference at all. No idea what they changed tbh.
I just received the update in my LG D855! Version 5.0.27 and about 46mb! I found new updates in predictive language
I get this update too 5.0 27 and it's install automatically....i don't know the difference
Sent from my LG-D855
Got the update here in India as well a few days back. Looks to be under-the-hood stuff. Probably optimizations rather than anything major. A lot of people had previously mentioned that the 'lag' on their phones noticeably reduces when they disable/uninstall the LG keyboard(there are a couple of threads about this 'tweak' as well) - So maybe there was indeed some poor memory usage or implementation that LG identified and fixed.
Anyway, never really liked or used stock keyboards. Swiftkey is the best when it comes to localized words/dictionary & cloud-sync.
I never noticed the ability to use handwriting before. Maybe it was always there but I just didn't see it.
For me the update just changed the predictive text. If you type car for example it would show an emoji of a car (stupid imo) and now if you type 2 words with similar character it will auto correct to the last one you used so constantly auto correcting to the wrong word for me making it unusable

Weather app keeps resetting to default

Hi there, wondering if this is a common issue for other users. A lot of apps I use seem to not remember my locations and just default to their original install state even though I never tinkered with the settings after the initial change... Anyone else experiencing this?

Weird, even the reviews have reported this issue...

Wifi and Bluetooth settings only in English since update

Can anyone verfy that there're some strings missing the German translation in the wifi and bluetooth settings since the March update? On my Nexus 5 everything is correct here. My Nexus 6P shows some things in English only. Of course my system langgauge is set to German (and tried to change it forth an back).
I looked for this issue on Google, but I couldn't find it anywhere else than on my device.
Wifi quick settings say "Connected" instead of "Verbunden", while in the normal settings section it says correctly "Verbunden". Same with bluetooth and the submenues of both.
Nobody? Can anyone please try to change the language to any other than english and see, if it still english in the mentioned places?

Thank you so much for your reply. I thought I was the only one who has or sees this bug.
But I wonder why there aren't hundreds or thousands of user reporting this bug.
I'm thinking about flashing back to the first image and update again to see if the bug appears again. At least it seems that not everybody has this bug.
