Sensors entity_id's are localised

Home Assistant Android version: 2021.2.2-full

Android version: 10

Phone model: OnePlus 7 Pro

Home Assistant version: 2021.2.3

Last working Home Assistant release (if known): n/a

Description of problem:

The generated entity_id’s for the sensors are suddenly localized. This happened to me when I re-installed the app today. Since the sensor information screen within the app contain the unique id property, I think this is a bug. On another phone where I didn’t reinstall, this behavior did not show itself. See below.

You need to change the language on the device before adding new sensors, this is as designed. If you reinstall you need to make sure to change the language to what you expected. Your best bet is to remove integration, clear data in the app, log back in, change language. The battery sensors are the only one that default to your system language and need to be changed manually.

@dshokouhi I believe we can fix this by adding code to apply locale to application class on starting as well as we do it for activities in baseActivity class. Unfortunately I don’t have configured environment to check and fix it right now.
