Read/write .txt file with special characters

Question

I open Notepad (Windows) and write

Some lines with special characters
Special: Žđšćč

and go to Save As... "someFile.txt" with Encoding set to UTF-8.

In Java I have

FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(new File("someFile.txt"));
InputStreamReader isr = new InputStreamReader(fis, "UTF-8");
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(isr);

String line;
while((line = in.readLine()) != null) {                         
    printLine(line);
}
in.close();

But I get question marks and similar "special" characters. Why?

EDIT: I have this input (one line in .txt file)

665,Žđšćč

and this code

FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(new File(fileName));
InputStreamReader isr = new InputStreamReader(fis, "UTF-8");
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(isr);

String line;
while((line = in.readLine()) != null) {
    Toast.makeText(mContext, line, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

    Pattern p = Pattern.compile(",");
    String[] article = p.split(line);

    Toast.makeText(mContext, article[0], Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
    Toast.makeText(mContext, Integer.parseInt(article[0]), Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
in.close();

And Toast output (for ones who aren't familiar with Android, Toast is just a method to show a pop-up on screen with particular text in it) is fine. Console shows "weird characters" (probably because of encoding in console window). But it fails at parsing an integer because console says this (warning: toast output is just fine) - Problem?

It seems like the String is containing some "weird" characters which Toast can't show/render but when I try to parse it, it crashes. Suggestions?

If I put ANSI in NotePad it works (integer parsing) and there are no weird chars as in the picture above, but of course my special characters aren't working.

Notepad does not save special symbols correctly. I had a similar problem and I used Notepad++ instead and selected UTf-8 encoding from there. When I did this, my program no longer crashed when applying String library methods to it unlike when I created the text file in Notepad.
