I receive from a 3rd party application a message containing a hexa char

is a simple application that shows my problem:
You need to be consistent with your encodings. You specified a UTF-8
decoder, but the DC encoding for Ü is not UTF-8, its ISO-8859-1 (and
several others: http://www.eki.ee/letter/chardata.cgi?ucode=00dc). The
UTF-8 encoding is C39C.
The foolproof way to create the String with that character that avoids
potential issues with javac using default platform encodings -- see
native2ascii):
String s2 = "\u00dc";
byte[] b2 = s2.getBytes("UTF-8");
