Changing your Language/Locale on Android 2.2

My wife's phone's language was set to portuguese, when installing a new keyboard I accidentally switched the language settings to english.

I was very surprised to see that I couldn't revert, the only languages available were: German, Italian, English and Turkish.

I'm not sure where this information is coming from, but when she first started the phone it had a portuguese (although we were in Germany) and we had the option to choose portuguese in the installation language. So maybe the options are retrieved from within the card.

I was about to replace the card by another just to change the locale, but instead found this great app: MoreLocale 2

It unblocked a long list of options, including Portuguese from Portugal.

Roundup of Free resources for 2d games

Extra (Edit): After going through lots of free resources, I've created the SpriteWorld web page. It's a collection of some the many free resources I've found.
Feel free to browse through and don't forget to +1 if you like it.

Although Sprite Would has a lot of content, I still recommend you read thought this post.

Another highly recommended reading for developers is this awesome post.

Note: Overall the website seems to have a lot of contents, however after a brief search I found very little  free CC content. The stars rating is reflecting my opinion as a website for free resources for indie games, not as a whole.

Some other findings:

Aparently DeviantArt has lots of isometric view tilesets: http://browse.deviantart.com/digitalart/pixelart/scenes/iso/

I liked the website, however didn't really find easy to use tiles.

 http://spritedatabase.net

The best resources sites I've found so far.

However I'm not sure regarding the usability of the contents... looking briefly to the forum it seems that it's good for play, not good if you want to make money (otherwise I would give it 5 stars):

So basically, you can use sprites as long you never receive a single cent for whatever you do with them. (This includes "voluntary donations" which is a popular excuse used by smug people whi think they can fool the law with semantics.)  (link)

 engine001

http://www.engine001.com/resources/items/firearm.htm

Lots and lots of resources, however files are in a strange format and tilesets seem too simple.
