Android WebView removes everything after a # in the URL after a redirect

Question

Apparently everything after the hash is called "encoded fragment". The Uri.getEncodedFragment() returns this string.

My use case is this. Given an URL:

url = "https://first/#/second"

If I do a:

webView.loadUrl(url);

The WebView removes everything after the hash symbol, making the request with the modified URL: "https://first/"

Any ideas on how to pass the full URL in the request?

EDIT:

I think this is related to a well known redirect problem: URL Fragment and 302 redirects

Anyone has any solution for Android?
