You need to double-unescape the string, using commons-lang StringEscapeUtils:

StringEscapeUtils.unescapeHtml(StringEscapeUtils.unescapeHtml(string))

If nothing is working then one simplest thing you can do is enclose whatever string you have within and do a xml parse using the SAX Parser on the device. This will give you a callback to decode xml entities wherein you can replace the characters. There are a lot of places wherein you can get a map.
