Dynamic set language string source

Is it possible in Android dynamic set language string source?

Example: I have in app 2 language resources, now I need force one layout file and here I want use for example English resources but system and UI etc must stay in default language. I want only set language resources for one xml file not for whole system. Is this possible? Or any idea. Thx

Use this

Resources res = context.getResources(); // Change locale settings in the app.
 DisplayMetrics dm = res.getDisplayMetrics();
 android.content.res.Configuration conf = res.getConfiguration();
 conf.locale = new Locale(language_code.toLowerCase());
 res.updateConfiguration(conf, dm);

Use this to change the language Dynamically:

Locale locale = new Locale("en_US"); 
Locale.setDefault(locale);
Configuration config = new Configuration();
config.locale = locale;
context.getApplicationContext().getResources().updateConfiguration(config, null);

You can get the list of country code from here.
