Solution 1:

As far as I understand, support for various locales is dependent on the vendor. Vendors could choose to remove certain locales for whatever reason. Did your friend get the phone from the same vendor/carrier as you did.

If all else fails, there are instructions for rooted phones here and apps on the Android Market that might help.

Solution 2:

Android support huge variety of locales but it never means that you'll find all language support in all the devices.

In case you want any specific language support in your application you have to package the appropriate fonts for the same in your application.

Remember Android supports Open Type Fonts only.

In case you need to install specific font in your phone/ emulator then you need to either buy a device with that font support / root the device or build your own emulator with your specified fonts.
