Title:
  Non-translatable strings in Ubuntu Touch

Status in Ubuntu Translations:
  New

Bug description:
  I tested out the Ubuntu Touch emulator with revision 243 and found some strings which are not translatable. At least they are not available for translation in the packages for Ubuntu Touch translation available here: http://projects.davidplanella.org/stats/utopic/zun (Just a random language choosen, to list all packages)
  Yes, I grep:ed through all of them searching for these strings before reporting. I haven't got a clue as in which packages they should be fixed so this is a general bugreport.

  See attachment with screenshots. Remember It may be that some of the
  strings are translatable in other places in po-files . i.e, System
  Settings also have a translatable string for the appname, but it
  doesn't pick that up when starting app (see screenshot for clear
  explanation of precisly when it's not working).

  no data sources -> show right after first login not translatable
  empty! -> under indicator menu
  Transfers -> in indicator menu
  indicator-sound -> in indicator menu
  upcoming events -> in indicator men
  Phone -> after pushing app icon
  System settings ->  after pushing app icon
  ... and I would guess, this would affect the rest of the apps too, as they have same behaviour
  menu with all, communication games etc.

  To reproduce:
  1) Download latest rev of Ubuntu touch
  2) Install and choose a translation thats almost 100 (and has been so for a while) to make it easier and to be sure translations are coming with the package). Notice the missing translation as per above when using it.
  3) Download all you language files for the packages listed  at http://projects.davidplanella.org/stats/utopic/zun
  4) Try to find (i.e. grep or something) the missing occasions and translate them. Not possible. (Remember It may be that some of the strings are translatable in other places . i.e, System Settings also have a translatable string for the appname, but it doesn't pick that up when starting app (see screenshot for clear explanation of precisly when it's not working).
