Charlie, Yes, I think we are saying ALMOST the same thing. But, I don't think & is the Escaped Ampersand. I think it's just the Ampersand, and that's why it's causing the problem.
As I say, I'm not a Unicode expert, but I think the proper sequence for an escaped ampersand would be : & & I think that's how an escaped ampersand would look in UTF-8. The ampersand escaping the ampersand :). Or, of course the & Sorry, I can't try it right now, but I'm interested to know if it works. When I have time, I'll build an app to check it.

I didn't expect this to work, because even manually typing it in still leads to each character being encoded. In the quote you provided it says "they MUST be escaped using either numeric character references...". UTF-8 (and all unicode) encoding does just that :) The '&' is number 38. On the other hand, I also tested the bracket characters < and >. Both cause the same issue as the & character. Other brackets such as [ and { and ( do not cause issue. So clearly this does have something to do with the SAXParser in Android handling the special XML characters. I have never used SAXParser outside of Android so I cannot say whether or not it is any different. But I can confirm that this did not happen in 0.9 and I am 99% confident it should not be happening at all.
