Hello there, I'm a long-time reader of the forum, first time posting I am (unfortunately) still on Android (and I'm miserable about it), but I intend to by a WP device in a week or so.
So, I have a question for you guys. You know how in both Windows 8 and Windows Phone there are some features that are available only in certain regions of the world, like US. I live in Eastern Europe, so that restriction is kind of a problem for me. So, here is how I bypass it on my PC - I simply change regional settings to US, and I immediately get the "hero" search and all the apps in the store that were previously unavailable. Only the Xbox Music app somehow "knows" that I am cheating, but everything else works fine.
We all know we can expect Cortana to be English only in the beginning (and even later, I know I am not getting it in my native tongue for a long, long time). So I was wondering, will what I did on my PC work on my WP? Will it mess with my calls. mobile networks, or maybe the app store and stuff?
