Android N change language programmatically

Ok. Finally i managed to find a solution.

First you should know that in 25 API Resources.updateConfiguration(...) is deprecated. So instead you can do something like this:

1) You need to create your own ContextWrapper that will override all configuration params in baseContext. For example this is mine ContextWrapper that changes Locale correctly. Pay attention on context.createConfigurationContext(configuration) method.

public class ContextWrapper extends android.content.ContextWrapper {

    public ContextWrapper(Context base) {
        super(base);
    }

    public static ContextWrapper wrap(Context context, Locale newLocale) {
        Resources res = context.getResources();
        Configuration configuration = res.getConfiguration();

        if (BuildUtils.isAtLeast24Api()) {
            configuration.setLocale(newLocale);

            LocaleList localeList = new LocaleList(newLocale);
            LocaleList.setDefault(localeList);
            configuration.setLocales(localeList);

            context = context.createConfigurationContext(configuration);

        } else if (BuildUtils.isAtLeast17Api()) {
            configuration.setLocale(newLocale);
            context = context.createConfigurationContext(configuration);

        } else {
            configuration.locale = newLocale;
            res.updateConfiguration(configuration, res.getDisplayMetrics());
        }

        return new ContextWrapper(context);
    }
}

2) Here’s what you should do in your BaseActivity:

@Override
protected void attachBaseContext(Context newBase) {

    Locale newLocale;
    // .. create or get your new Locale object here.

    Context context = ContextWrapper.wrap(newBase, newLocale);
    super.attachBaseContext(context);
}

Note:

Remember to recreate your activity if you want to change Locale in
your App somewhere. You can override any configuration you want using
this solution.
