Android add Language XML (strings.xml) in res folder at runtime

I have an android app which has 3 languages in res folder.

I want my app to add another language at runtime in res folder and not by adding string xml files and recompile them.

How can i achieve this? I've search alot in google and no luck.

Thanks alot!!

I confirmed that this is not possible because all files in res folder are read-only

I'm facing the same problem and I will just get all strings from a (cached) remote file. The TextView text property will store an id and in the Activity.onCreate() method I'll programatically replace all TextViews.text strings with it's matched value from the current language file.
