copied!<p>Unfortunatly the automatic generation of the AppResources.resx files only seems to work for Windows Phone 8 apps. For Windows Phone 7 apps you have to do it all manually. This is how to localize your app in Windows Phone 7:</p> <p><strong>Step 1:</strong> Choose languages in "Supported Cultures" in project properties (same as for WP8)</p> <p><strong>Step 2:</strong> Right click on project in solution explorer -> Add -> New Item...</p> <p><strong>Step 3:</strong> Select the type <code>Resources File</code> and name it <code>AppResources.resx</code></p> <p><strong>Step 4:</strong> Open the <code>AppResources.resx</code> file and change the <code>Access Modifier</code> to <code>Public</code>:</p> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/slWBM.png" alt="enter image description here"></p> <p><strong>Step 5:</strong> Repeat step 2, 3, and 4 for every other language you want to use, naming the file <code>AppResources.<culture>.resx</code>, for example <code>AppResources.sv.resx</code> for Swedish.</p> <p><strong>Step 6:</strong> Create a class named "LocalizedStrings.cs" with the following code:</p> <pre><code>public class LocalizedStrings { private static AppResources _localizedResources = new AppResources(); public AppResources AppResources { get { return _localizedResources; } } } </code></pre> <p><strong>Step 7:</strong> Open App.xaml, and add the following to <code><Appllication.Resources></code>:</p> <pre><code><Application.Resources> <local:LocalizedStrings x:Key="LocalizedStrings" /> </Application.Resources> </code></pre> <p><strong>Step 8:</strong> You can now use the translations in the following way:</p> <pre><code><TextBlock Text="{Binding AppResources.Title, Source={StaticResource LocalizedStrings}}" /> </code></pre> <p>Where <code>Title</code> is the <code>Name</code> column in the AppResources.resx files.</p> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/2WIdC.png" alt="enter image description here"></p>
