Do the difficulties occur only with the old data or do you see the same behaviour if you bootstrap a clean database and run from that? Your UnicodeDecodeError looks hauntingly familiar and it was caused by corrupted data in the database. I suspect that by changing the encoding with existing data will have caused problems. I assume that you have a backup of your database from before you made these changes? I have a script that uses SA to go through every row of every table and fixes encoding issues, but it's fairly dangerous in that it hasn't been widely tested and could break your data further. I will send it along privately as it really isn't fit for public consumption and you can test it on a backup of your database to see if it solves your issues.
