Change primary language in the new iTunes Connect

Apple recently released a new version of iTunes Connect. I just want to change the primary language of my app, but the documentation (https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/LanguagesUtilities/Conceptual/iTunesConnect_Guide/Chapters/DisplayInMoreLanguages.html at the bottom) is now deprecated.

Anyone solved this problem?

I found a way to make it work without having to get accepted by the App Store.

In Localizable Information, click on the language and choose a new language you want to add as primary language.
Very important. Hit Save at top right corner.
Go down to General Information. You will find now that Primary Language becomes a drop-down menu with new language that you just added. You can proceed to change your primary language and then Save.

For those still having problems changing your primary language, you first need to submit a new version of your app which has at least 2 localizations (for me e.g. i started only with german and then german and english). German was my initial primary language. As soon as the version is approved + ready for sale(dont forget to add the localization in your App-Information as well (add new language)) THEN you can change the primary language in the App information.

Sorry for my english, new here ;)

I had the same problem. My solution was to untick 'Use XXXCOUNTRYXXX Apple Watch' under 'Apple Watch' in Media Manager (and any others that may be ticked by default). I was then able to change the primary language.
