What is the problem? Please be detailed.
Hi, my name is Diego, and i'm from Argentina. My english is so bad but i will try to do my best.
The problem i have is with a CSV Support File. When i see the form and the data-preloading on my Android smartphone / tablet, special characters (coming from the CSV file) not showing correctly. For example, an accent is displayed like a black diamond with an interrogant symbol inside.
What ODK tool and version are you using? And on what device and operating system version?
I'm using the v1.11.1 ODK version, in two devices: Samsung Galaxy J2 (Smarthphone, Android 5.1.1) and a Noblex T7A6 (Tablet, Android 6.0).
What steps can we take to reproduce the problem?
I create a simple XML form and CSV support file with Excel (XLSForm), and later i pushed the two files with the ODK Aggregate function (Im using a Google Cloud server on appspot). Before upload, i save the CSV file on UTF-8 format, but nothing happen, the special characters still showing wrong.
What you have you tried to fix the problem?
I googled A LOT of time. More than two days... and still. I tryed with all the ODK software (XLSForm Offline, Validate, Briefcase, etc.) and too with changing the CSV format to another: ANSII, ISO, Unicode, etc. Nothing.
Anything else we should know or have? If you have a test form or screenshots or logs, attach here.
I use the pulldata() function in the form, to get the data from the CSV file. I read about the search() function but i dont understand too much. Anyway, I don't think this matters.
