There is a bug when changing the Locale on the Motorola Milestone. The font gets smaller each time the updateConfiguration(...) is called. See here an article on this and the fix: http://adrianvintu.com/blogengine/post/Force-Locale-on-Android.aspx BR, Adrian Vintu On Sun, Dec 27, 2009 at 11:13

I've been looking for a long time at a solution to this problem (ever since 2.0 was released). I can confirm that by adding locale to configChanges fixes the problem. My exact xml entry is: android:configChanges=orientation|keyboardHidden|locale I've actually added the locale parameter to each

As a workaround you can recommend your users the MoreLocale application to change their Locale to Swedish. But I am also interested in application level locale setting. Did you report the issue? Best -- Bahadır Yağan 2009/11/9 Bahadır Yağan bahadir.ya...@gmail.com Does anyone know if this

No, changing the application's locale like this is not supported, and will not entirely work. It shouldn't cause an activity to restart though... actually I can't imagine how this would cause an activity to restart, since this method is much lower-level than the activity. Maybe the process is

I don't think that the process is crashing, at least not in the emulator since I can see all these logging messages: 11-07 23:11:33.849: WARN/UsageStats(61): Something wrong here, didn't expect mypackagename to be resumed There are lots of them. It looks like it gets stuck in some kind of loop.

Thanks for the answer. The workaround works, but that does unfortunately mean that users who got Android 2.0 won't be able to use Swedish in the application. Btw. Do you know if I should report the updateConfiguration bug? On 7 Nov, 23:35, Mark Murphy mmur...@commonsware.com wrote: Kaj Bjurman

Thanks I'll do so. Btw. This was the only way that I knew of in which I would be able to let users select Swedish as application language. The Android OS in 1.5 did not have a Swedish locale in the settings menu, and my 1.6 still doesn't have a Swedish locale. On 8 Nov, 14:28, Mark Murphy
