Comment 1

[Théo Chevalier]

Just to clarify, this bug affects all locales.

We already have strings for AM/PM, Gaia just needs to pick them from dates.properties.

You can find them all here:

AM http://transvision.mozfr.org/string/?entity=shared/date/date.properties:time_am&repo=gaia#ar
PM http://transvision.mozfr.org/string/?entity=shared/date/date.properties:time_pm&repo=gaia#ar

AM/PM seems localized in other parts of the OS (Calendar for example), so I guess we just need Settings to pick the right translations in the Date & Time panel.

Issue is visible also by using a pseudolocale and switching to 12 hours format.

The code for _formatTime, unlike _formatDate, doesn't currently use l10n.js to format the date, relying on Date.prototype.toLocaleFormat instead

Not sure if I also need the blocking-gaia flag on the bug.

This issue is verified fixed on Flame Master and 2.2.

Result: "AM" and "PM" are localized in Date & Time settings page. I checked with Arabic, Japanese, Korean, and Traditional Chinese.
