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...

Sometimes when I'm on EVDO and I go to google for searching the Google Search button says "Google" but has Chinese characters next to it. If I search for something it returns all my results in Chinese. If I go back to the main search page and change it to "search in english" things appear as normally expected.
Is there some reason my phone or Google thinks I'm in China when in fact I'm actually in California? Visiting http://geotoolservehttp.com currently shows my IP out of Kansas, though I haven't checked this site when this is happening to me with the Chinese issue.
Anyone else experience this?
Yes - mine thinks im in spain when im in conecticut. Even setting my google account to english it didn't seem to take. I set my homepage to google.com/intl/en to get around it

I saw the same thing this morning... in the past, I've also had all of my results come back in french.
The fix for me was just to sign in to google.com with my Google account.

Yup got Germany. (I live in CO)
Had it happen to me also...in french.
I get an italian version every once in a while. Pretty annoying.
I had this happen on my Treo Pro 850 a few times and never found a solution. I haven't had it happen on my Hero yet, knock on wood.
Google is attempting a new cultural campaign whether you like it or not.
Happened to me in Spanish. Cleared the cache and it returned to normal.
No joke I had Elmer Fudd language turn up on Eris when I did a Google search(via the search button).
This used to happen to me a lot on my old winmo phone, I'm in Ohio but it thinks it needs to be in French. I got around this both ways I've already seen people say, google.com/intl/en or just sign in to google.
Anyways.. I just wanted to confirm that this isn't anything to do with the phone, but Google itself.
double posted somehow... sorry. ;(
Same is happening to me lol
Dearest friends, it with sheer displeasure to inform you that Dio Dict 3 was withdrawn from Samsung Zone and it is no longer available from the Marketplace either. I discovered it, once I reflashed my firmware to DBTJK1 and when I visited Samsung zone the application was no longer listed. This issue was later confirmed upon googling.
It's a real pity that this great app was removed from the marketplace... Luckily for me I still have it.
TIP: If you still have DioDict, don't update it or you'll lose it for good!
I think I've got something for you!
Here you find the xap file

Hmm owned an Omnia for a week now and i never seen it
It's annoying since my marketplace shows I have 1 update due (Diodict) but since it doesn't exist i can't update it meaning i permanently have 1 update pending
@ ikke008, Many thanks for the xap mate! You are a star.

I can confirm this, the application is FREE, bears the name Collins English, version 3.0.0.0, and the available add-on vocabularies are English to Italian / German / Spanish / Portoguese / French
Unfortunately it does not work on my omnia 7
The app allways crashes after a few seconds.
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.
Just got my M3 from China because I wanted to get an LTE version, which is not available in the US.
I have set language to English, and set time zone to Pacific, but the tablet still thinks it is in China. Websites that are multi-lingual show Chinese characters, when I try to create a Huawei Id it says "County/Region: China" at the top.
Any idea how to change this? Seems like a nice tablet so far, and the LTE is nice (Google Fi), but I am not sure I am going to take the time to learn Chinese just to use it.
Thanks!
Dave

I deleted or deactivated all Chinese applications. I manually installed Google Play. Installed its applications, including Google Chrome, keyboard, etc., and I only stayed at Hivoices Chinese characters. I have adjusted the default application to mine.
Thanks! I wound up doing the same thing. Was just hoping there was a way to tell the tablet where it really lives. Reminds me of the old DVD region days...
One related note, on HiVoice... I was playing around and got to the place where you can use your voice to wake up the tablet. It wants me to say something 3 times as my "wake up" word, but no matter what I try I cannot seem to get it to accept anything I say. It is telling me, in Chinese, what I should say -- and clearly I am not following directions well. Were you able to get the voice wake up to work, and if so - what was the trick?
Ditto re PlayStore, Google Launcher, Calender etc
If you change language to English US first, then option for USA should be available. Australia as country was available after changing language to English(UK) on my M3.

did u get it to work, also, are you using att, how is the lte.
Hey guys, not sure what's happened but i recently purchased a one plus 5 (2months ago) and everything was working flawlessly. I set up a personal dictionary, so if i wanted to say type "happy birthday" i would just type "hb." This was working perfectly until a couple of weeks ago. I can't say when it stopped, but now i can't get it working at all. I have russian, english keyboards. I had the personal shortcuts under english. This stopped working, so i moved them under the "general keyboard" that worked briefly and now that's stopped also. I did a quick search online, but didn't find much. Anyone else have this issue ? Can they shed light on it ? Am not running the latest Oxygen OS as it's not reached me yet. App wise, i had the standard keyboard. thx
