UTF-8 conversion in Android?

Solution 1
For UTF encoding use this -> URLEncoder.encode(string, "UTF-8");
Also you need to change spaces -> string.replace(" ", "%20");
Solution 2
Just try it:
URLEncoder.encode(str, "UTF-8");
Solution 3
You can use this:
import java.net.URLEncoder;
class{
String TEXT;
TEXT= URLEncoder.encode(TEXT, "UTF-8");
}

I am encountering a problem that I need to call a web service. I just need to generate a UTF-8 encoded url string. Because the parameter may contain spaces, I am using below piece of code to encode to utf-8:
public String encodeUTF(String str) { try { byte[] utf8Bytes = str.getBytes("UTF-8"); String encodedStr = new String(utf8Bytes, "UTF-8"); return encodedStr; } catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } return str; }
But still I am getting the same value. Because of this I am getting illegal argument exception while calling the service. Any ideas?
