Hi Dianne,
I have exactly the same problem. The functionality was broken since I
move to v10 and now to 2.0.1
I wrote the question as "Different behaviour between SDK 1.6 and SDK
2.0 - bug? Please help." in developers forum month ago but no answer.
Anyway when i'm commenting the line
context.getBaseContext().getResources().updateConfiguration
(config, context.getBaseContext().getResources().getDisplayMetrics());
the application is starting properly. No localization changes is
available but at least it's running.
I can send you source code if you need to investigate it.
Thanks,
Evgeny
