I think you need to provide the correct charset connection parameter.
We have had a poor experience with DBF file headers recording the correct
character set. perhaps cpg would have a better track record.
Here is an outstanding patch, focused on just the DBF header (which can
also record charset).

This patch is missing a test case but you may be able to clean it up?

Mobile security can be enabling, not merely restricting. Employees who
bring their own devices (BYOD) to work are irked by the imposition of MDM
restrictions. Mobile Device Manager Plus allows you to control only the
apps on BYO-devices by containerizing them, leaving personal data untouched!
