>             Project: Apache Cordova
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Plugin Globalization
>    Affects Versions: 2.7.0

> Due to the documentation "globalization.getLocaleName" returns the locale identifier of the browser. Unfortunately on some devices (e.g. iOS) the browsers seem to return some kind of "fake" locale. For example, when I go in my iPhone's settings and set language: en and region: uk, globalization.getLocaleName returns "en_US" though I would expect "en_UK".
> Is there any way you guys can make Cordova return the "real region" set in the phones settings - and not what the phone's browser thinks?
> Btw: We are using Telerik's Icenium. They are currently working with Cordova 2.7., so maybe this issue has already been improved/fixed in later Cordova versions?
