When setting up Mobile Languages in the web client, default "Device Language Code"'s is automatically suggested for a number of language codes.

Also, three selected mobile language (including their associated MobMessages; translations) are created during install in MOB5.27 and newer (in older versions, these will need to be setup manually):

• Danish (Windows Language DAN → Device Language DA)
