Thank you all for advices. I solved my problem and a new one.
Thank you Alex for advice, i knew about localization in android, but it is not
what i need. In my application flag image and some text have to change
depending on the country choosen not the locale set on the platform.
I found how to set text for textView's based on a custom configuration, maybe
it helps you.
I used something like this:
TextView countryName=(TextView)findViewById(R.id.TextView01);
countryName.setText(getResources().getIdentifier("country_"+"uk", "string"
,getPackageName() ));
and i have saved in values/strings.xml
<string name="country_uk">United Kingdom</string>
<string name="country_ro">Romania</string>
<string name="country_us">United States</string>
<string name="country_de">Deutschland</string>
If anybody has a better solution, are welcome to post it.
Good luck,
Lidy

Read about resource qualifiers in the Android Dev Guide:
http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/resources/localization.html
I have a releated problem. I would like to choose resources based on
a custom configuration, but there doesn't seem to be a way to use the
built-in resource qualifiers for this.
