Hello,

In my program I used WebView to load a URL. The problem is one of my
users mentioned that the page displayed with wrong characters.

The application is tested on 3 different Android version on simulator
and on some real phones but the above encoding problem could not be
simulated.

Problem: Some characters replaced with question mark character (�)

Web page includes iso-8859-1 character set.

The user's environment:
Android 2.3.6
Language: Turkish
The browser settings reset to default as well.
Not: User has the same problem in android browser, but not on opera
browser.

Code segment:
wv = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webViewArticle);
wv.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
wv.loadUrl(url);

Additionally, below lines are tested too.
- wv.getSettings().setDefaultTextEncodingName("UTF-8");
- wv.getSettings().setDefaultTextEncodingName("ISO-8859-1");
- wv.loadDataWithBaseURL(url, getHtmlContent(url), "text/html",
"UTF-8", null);
- wv.loadDataWithBaseURL(url, getHtmlContent(url), "text/html",
"iso-8859-1", null);
