accentuated letters failing

Bugreport for Nokia Custom Dictionary

I owe an E52, Hungarian localization. The program works stable, but when trying to import list from either txt (ANSI, unicode, UTF-8, big endian), or xlm, the accentuated letters are failing (áéíöüóúőű), and are substituted mostly with letter Q

If you don't mind, can you please send us the file you are trying to import, with the problematic characters? Please find the email link from our FAQ question #9.

Hi,
I can confirm another bug with punctuation.
I own an N82 with firmware 35, language is set to English but dictionary to French. If I add a word like "étamé" in the SMS and then check in your app, the word loses the "é" and there only remains "tam".
Some other strange behaviour is if I add "adgjmptw" to it, from within the dictionary app, after exiting and starting the application again, the added nonsense changes to "adgjmptwronissit"!?!
Sethu, you are making a poll about your app in the discussion forum, do you plan on fixing some of the problems on older phones like the FP1 models?

Unfortunately, there are some technical limitations on S60 3rd Edition FP1 phones (except the E71 and E63). This means that Custom Dictionary is incompatible with these phones.

In this case I would not deliver it to people, it renders the whole thing a bit useless and frustrating. This is a nice application for newer phones, although it seems to have problems with accents also on FP2 (E52) which in my case would render it, again, a bit useless.

I have the similar problem. My phone is E66 with 500.21.009 firmware. I know it is not the supported phone, but I really searched hard for this kind of app. When I open the dictionary, I can't see any diacritics. For example: "exekutoři" appears here as "exekutoYi", or "jaňula" as "jaHula". It's a czech language. There are also words I never added. They don't even exist. I guess it can be some mutation because of charset problem.
