Data binding on Windows phone 8 live tiles

Question

I am trying to bind some strings in the 'backcontent' of the live tiles in my Windows Phone 8 app to change the text depending on the languaje of the smartphone but I can not find the way. The tiles, with an static string are working fine. This is the 'tokens' block of my 'WMAppManifest.xml':

<Tokens>
  <PrimaryToken TokenID="PhoMod_VToken" TaskName="_default">
    <TemplateFlip >
      <SmallImageURI IsRelative="true" IsResource="false">Assets\Tiles\IconicTileSmall.png</SmallImageURI>
      <Count>0</Count>
      <BackgroundImageURI IsRelative="true" IsResource="false">Assets\Tiles\IconicTileMedium.png</BackgroundImageURI>
      <Title>PhoMod 3D
      </Title>
      <BackContent>Capture, view and share your world in 3D</BackContent>
      <BackBackgroundImageURI IsRelative="true" IsResource="false">Assets\Tiles\IconicTileMedium_Back.png</BackBackgroundImageURI>
      <BackTitle>PhoMod 3D
      </BackTitle>
      <LargeBackgroundImageURI IsRelative="true" IsResource="false">Assets\Tiles\IconicTileLarge.png</LargeBackgroundImageURI>
      <LargeBackContent>Capture, view and share your world in 3D</LargeBackContent>
      <LargeBackBackgroundImageURI IsRelative="true" IsResource="false">Assets\Tiles\IconicTileLarge_Back.png</LargeBackBackgroundImageURI>
      <DeviceLockImageURI IsRelative="true" IsResource="false">
      </DeviceLockImageURI>
      <HasLarge>True</HasLarge>
    </TemplateFlip>
  </PrimaryToken>
</Tokens>

Please suggest a way. Thanks in advance.

It is not possible to bind values to WMAppManifest.xml. You need to programatically create new tile with text that you want and update the default one.
