Also I get on the final settings page 'Settings for Pico TTS' Not sure what this is but when I click it a list of European languages comes up but only in a mode that you cannot do anything with.
 
Are we talking about TTS or the actual device language here, that all the menus and things are in?

I think some devices can have automatic language selection based on the country and carrier it's in, all depending on what particular phone you've actually got there. If it is one of those, make sure that feature is unchecked. Is it a Xiaomi with MIUI?
