To fix the locale issue.

Reinstall posix-locales package using:
Code:
apt-get install posix-locales --reinstall
Once this package is installed.
You can check the list of available locales using:
Code:
locale -a
Make a note of locale that you will be using.
By default utf-8 locales aren't used. But I think they should be safe to use.
Open /etc/osso-af-init/locale using nano or leafpad.

Code:
#!/bin/sh

unset LC_ALL
export LANG=en_GB
export LC_TIME=en_GB
export LC_MESSAGES=en_GB
export LC_NUMERIC=en_IN
export LC_MONETARY=en_IN
export LC_PAPER=en_IN
export LC_NAME=en_IN
export LC_ADDRESS=en_IN
export LC_TELEPHONE=en_IN
export LC_MEASUREMENT=en_IN
export LC_IDENTIFICATION=en_IN
Make sure that the locale is filled as above.
I am using en_IN and en_GB both.
But for you it might just en_GB, en_US or different.

Once you have made sure that it's filled and is in the available list, restart the phone.
After restart, check the regional/language settings again in the phone by accessing phone settings.

I hope this helps.

Cheers!!!
