Which Flexicontent version are you using? and you have original mod_flexicontent of your version or replaced by files you found in this forum? (the latest Flexicontent module for 1.5.6, posted in some topics in this forum has "Current language scope")

Do this test:
Open file modules/mod_flexicontent/helper.php
Add at about line 474 replace code:

Code:

$language =& JFactory::getLanguage();
$currlangcode = $language->_lang;
if ($method_curlang == 1) { // exclude method  ---  exclude items of current language
  $where .=  ' AND ie.language <> ' . $currlangcode;
} else if ($method_curlang == 2) { // include method  ---  include items of current language ONLY
  $where .=  ' AND ie.language = "' . $currlangcode.'"';
} else {
  // Items of any language
}

with

Code:

$lang 		= JRequest::getWord('lang', '' );
if(empty($lang)){
	$langFactory= JFactory::getLanguage();
	$tagLang = $langFactory->getTag();
	//Well, the substr is not even required as flexi saves the Joomla language tag... so we could have kept the $tagLang tag variable directly.
	$lang = substr($tagLang ,0,2);
}
if ($method_curlang == 1) { // exclude method  ---  exclude items of current language
  //$where .=  ' AND ie.language <> ' . $currlangcode;
} else if ($method_curlang == 2) { // include method  ---  include items of current language ONLY
	$where .= ' AND ie.language LIKE ' . $this->_db->Quote( $lang .'%' );
} else {
  // Items of any language
}

also on the new code, temporary change line:
$tagLang = $langFactory->getTag();
to
echo $tagLang = $langFactory->getTag();

What is the output?

Also note that if your translate your items (their title and description) using Joomfish you must not use "current language scope".

Only use this scope if you have various languages for your items inside the items manager. I mean you have some items English and some Arabic.
