Hi Fabrice,
You are right, this is a change in PR1.1. Earlier we used for example the generic "fi" culture and now we are using "fi-FI", following the official Windows Phone documentation for supported languages. This was done because the app must use the same culture as the library supports (it does not work if app uses "fi-FI" and lib supports only "fi" or the other way around, as discovered in #10) and I considered that it is easier for both apps and lib to align themselves to that least rather than fighting over which culture to use.
I will have to investigate how the platforms handles fr-BE, a language not listed in http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windowsphone/develop/hh202918(v=vs.105).aspx
Best regards,

Hi Lucian,
Thank you for the answer.
Please note that my phone uses fr-BE as Culture but my UI Culture is fr-FR like in the link you provided.
In fact I would like to use in my project properties the "French" language (fr) like that all kind of "fr" (Canada fr-CA, France fr-FR, Belgium fr-BE,...) can use my generic resource file (AppResources.fr.resx).
And it works for the moment. The only issue is that RateMyApp seems to not detect my UI Culture fr-Fr.
I think I gave you all the information needed. If you need something else please let me know (test, phone info.,...)

Right, I checked now and indeed, for UI culture the only possible value is "fr-FR" which matches the "French" value for the "phone language" settings. It would make sense for that setting to be encoded as "fr" but for some reasons Microsoft chose to use the "fr-FR" variant.
There are several French-based options for Regional format but neither of them seem to match "fr-BE", at least not on my phone. What is the value you have set for regional format?
Regardless, the regional format should have no impact on UI strings, they all are expected to match the UI Culture so using "fr-FR" should give you always the French translation on WP. Try this, use "French (France)" in your project's localization settings.

My phone language is French, country is Belgium and Regional settings is French Belgium.
So UI culture is fr-Fr.
If I use French France in my project properties RateMyApp is localized in French. But VS created a specific resx file for French France - AppResources.fr-Fr.resx
With that my app is localized in English (default resx file) and my AppResources.fr.resx is ignored.
Do you want a sample project?

Just rename the AppResources.fr.resx file as AppResources.fr-Fr.resx and it will be loaded for all French-based cultures.

Ok, added French-France in project properties, and renamed my resx file (AppResources.fr.resx file as AppResources.fr-Fr.resx) and now it works.
Tested english version, French France version and French Belgium version.
Thank you for your help!
