Hitherto, I've been setting the locale with the 'persist' properties, but on the Android 8 emulator, I get this:
setprop: failed to set property 'persist.sys.language' to 'en'
setprop: failed to set property 'persist.sys.country' to 'GB'
setprop: failed to set property 'ctl.restart' to 'zygote'
I tried setting the ro. locale-related properties, but surprisingly enough they're still 'ro'.
Does anyone know the new way for Android 8?
