The getAvailableLocales returned en-GB locale. So the en-GB should be available on this Samsung device and I can switch it through Settings. In addition, if I choose the other locale on the 4.0.x devices through the Settings, such as Deutsch. It is working perfectly as date shown 03.07.2012, so what is wrong with en-GB?
