It's possible to use following method for content's setting of a web-view loadData(String data, String mimeType, String encoding)
How to handle the problem with unknown encoding of html data?!
Is there a list of encodings?!
I know from my college that in my case html comes from DB and is encoded with latin-1. I try to set encoding parameter to latin-1, to ISO-8859-1 / iso-8859-1, but still have problem with displaying of special signs like ä, ö, ü.
I'll be very thankful for any advice.

Alternatives to WebView If you want to send users to a mobile site, build a progressive web app (PWA). If you want to display third-party web content, send an intent to installed web browsers. If you want to avoid leaving your app to open the browser, or if you want to customize the browser's UI, use Custom Tabs.
Android WebView is a system component for the Android operating system (OS) that allows Android apps to display content from the web directly inside an application.
This interface was deprecated in API level 12. This interface is now obsolete.
myWebView.loadData(myHtmlString, "text/html; charset=UTF-8", null); This works flawlessly, especially on Android 4.0, which apparently ignores character encoding inside HTML.
Tested on 2.3 and 4.0.3.
In fact, I have no idea about what other values besides "base64" does the last parameter take. Some Google examples put null in there.
