The instructions for setting up a mobile main page are here:
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mobile_Projects/Mobile_Gateway/Mobile_homepage_formatting
On desktop Wikimedia sites, it is possible to determine the user's
country - and to some extent city, latitude and longitude, but these
are often inaccurate. They are stored in the javascript variables
"Geo.country", "Geo.city", "Geo.lat" and "Geo.lon" respectively.
Unfortunately this hasn't been implemented on the mobile sites yet
