General :: Romanian Characters In Android
Feb 14, 2012
In Romanian there are two characters (diacritics) that are causing problems in the IT world. I'm talking about ş and ţ that are written with cedilla instead of comma under (more details here and here).
Android seems to correctly display only cedilla-S, cedilla-T and comma-S. Comma-T is displayed as a square (on Maps, inside PowerAMP, etc). Looks like it's only a font problem as the songs are correctly submitted to last.fm. It happens both on Defy CM7.1 and on Wildfire original latest.
I've heard some time ago that it will be fixed in Gingerbread, but... looks like I'll have to change the fonts myself on my Defy. Is there any other solution than changing the fonts?

I don't know why but some emails I sent aren't showing properly. If I write something like: "hey, what have you planned for tomorrow"?
It's delivered like this:
=?UTF-8?B?5pS25Yiw5LqM5pak5Zub55uS6ZOB6KeC6Z+z?=
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/html; charset="utf-8"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64[code]...
At first I thought it was because of some ROM so I made a clean install of Gingerbread.This didn't fix it so I updated to ICS. Not even changing my written language from Chinese to English worked.

I have to implement a simple custom soft-keyboard in my application and I want to show accented characters on the keyboard too.
These are: í, é, á, ű, ú, ő, ó, ü, ö
My question is how to map these in the keyboard xml? What are the key codes for these? I could not found them in the official KeyEvent document.
My current keyboard definition xml looks like this:
Code:
<Keyboard xmlns:android=""
android:keyWidth="10%p"
android:horizontalGap="0px"
android:verticalGap="0px"
[URL] .......

Is there any way to "teach" Android to recognize the characters not displaying in the attached image? Unaccented characters always display fine, but most accented characters show up as a rectangle. They display the same way in the stock browser, Chrome, and Drive, so I suspect it's system-wide.

Is there any way to remove foreign characters just before sending a SMS? I know that some keyboards can do that, but I'm looking for something universal. I want to delete them, because when I use them, one SMS can contain only 70 characters instead of 160.

Last year when I was living in South Korea I bought a Samsung Galaxy S2 and I had no problems with it but since i've been back in the UK every time I text it converts my message into a MMS even though i'm only sending about 80 characters. It's really annoying and means I can only send a few words on each text hah
I've read up online and ive tried downloading some SMS apps such as handcent etc but nothing is working I can't afford to buy a new phone currently, desperately trying to fix this.

how can i make my songs (.mp3) to have recognizable characters at every android media player. Let me make clear to you that non-english characters (greek letters) at my songs are nearly unreadable at players. Media players play such songs normally but i can not read their IDE tags (for example: individual artist's name, album's name, e.t.c....) Every android file explorer can identify their name, (so windows 7 do) but not the android players ( i have tested almost every media player available in market, now i am using miui player with the same problem). I have HTC magic with CM7.2 and the problem is with greek letters in songs which they appear to me as chinese ones and therefore i am not able to make playlists, choose a specific song from my list...

Samsung Galaxy Nexus. I could send special characters (i.e: �, �, �, �, �, ect) in text messages. Then, it wouldn't anymore. I believe my phone updated to Jelly Bean before it stopped, so it may be connected to that. When I try to send a message with any type of special character in it, the message simply won't send. No matter if I use the messenger than came on the phone, or the one I installed (Handcent). I still get the message just not sending. It'll send once I take the characters out of the message, though. I can normally receive messages containing special characters, but they sometimes it shows up as squares.
Mostly, I want to know if I can fix it. I understand that it may be the update, which I'll have to wait out. Or that it could be the phone itself, which in that case I'd just have to wait till I can upgrade again. It's just very annoying not being able to send accents or special characters. Especially to my Spanish only speaking friends.

I am having difficulty while parsing some Turkish sites.Here is the part of the code. The problem is when the title contains some non-UTF characters like it stops parsing and doesnt read the rest. For example if the title is "Ebru askere gitti" it only reads until which is "Ebru G". Or when reading "Serdar Orta net oldu" it only read "Serdar Or"

I'm using a SAXParser to parse an XML document and its getting stuck on certain symbols like the 'trademark' symbol and I think even double- quotes". I really don't need these characters so it would be fine if the parser just skips over these. Instead it throws an exception and quits parsing the document. What can I do?

Currently I have an edittext field that when the user presses enter it does mostly what I want it to, validate an IP Address format and inform the user if it is wrong. How do I make it so when the user presses enter it checks it like it is supposed to be does not enter the newline character?
Here is my code for it.
public boolean onEditorAction(TextView arg0, int arg1, KeyEvent arg2) {
if(validateIPaddress(m_etIPAddress.getText().toString())){
ConfigData.m_IPAddress = m_etIPAddress.getText().toString();
} else { showAlertDialog("Invalid IP Address
Example: 255.255.255.255 0.0.0.0","Error: ");
m_etIPAddress.setText(ConfigData.m_IPAddress);
m_etIPAddress.requestFocus();
} return false;
}
Another problem I have is that in the false condition of the validation, that it will not bring up the soft keyboard to allow the user to reedit that text field. If the user clicks on another edit text the window gives it focus, and allows the user to edit the second text field while still maintaining the 'green outline' around the original edittext.
The EditText still creates a newline. I tried calling that when I create the EditText and it shows the dialog then inserts a newline character at the beginning which is weird because the
m_etIPAddress.setText(ConfigData.m_IPAddress);
Should automatically overwrite anything in that field to the static IP saved within ConfigData. (my settings class) and I think the focus might work, the problem is that after requestFocus, that EditText shows it has focus but is unresponsive. I can click on other EditText's and modify them, while it still shows the focus outline on the IP EditText. If I click on the IP EditText it doesn't actually do anything. Its kind of strange.

I am working on a font rendering project for one of my applications in android. I am trying to input a language like.I used the Softkeyboard sample for building the Language Keyboard. I was able to type characters of the language using a font in assets folder.But The problem is As soon as I type a character and a Half word character the later replaces the first character. And the first character disappears as soon as the half word character is typed.I wish that respective glyph is displayed for respective character,half word combination.I looked at update classes they are fine. Couldn't find where the displacing thing is happening.

I have a list with some Belgian cities with accentued ( is that the right english word?) characters: (Liège,Quiévrain,Franière, etc.) and I would like to transform these special characters to compare with a list containing the same names in upper case, but without these characters ( LIEGE, QUIEVRAIN, FRANIERE) What i first tried to do was to use the upper case: LIEGE.contentEqual(Liège.toUpperCase()) but that doesn't fit because the Upper case of Liège is LIÉGE and not LIEGE. I have some complicated ideas like replacing each characters, but that sound stupid and a long process.

I do not have a device. I am testing on the emulator. When I send a message(problematically and through the device) with special characters I am not able to view them properly. For Example: When I send a message from one emulator to another say "~Ha". I see only the character "~" in the other emulator.
But when I send the same message from the DDMS, I do not see the problem. Is this a problem with the emulator or am i missing somthing. sm.sendTextMessage("5556", null, "~Ha", null, null);
