So, i am using this code to get the whole HTML of a website. But i dont seem to get non-ascii characters with me. all i get is diamonds with question mark.
characters like this: å, appears like this: ?
I doubt its because of the charset, what could it then be?

Log.e("HTML", "henter htmlen..");
            String url = "http://beep.tv2.dk";
            HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient();
            client.getParams().setParameter(CoreProtocolPNames.PROTOCOL_VERSION, 
                    HttpVersion.HTTP_1_1);
            client.getParams().setParameter(CoreProtocolPNames.HTTP_ELEMENT_CHARSET, "UTF-8");
            HttpGet request = new HttpGet(url);
            HttpResponse response = client.execute(request);
            Header h = HeaderValueFormatter
            response.addHeader(header)
            String html = "";
            InputStream in = response.getEntity().getContent();
            BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(in));
            StringBuilder str = new StringBuilder();
            String line = null;
            while((line = reader.readLine()) != null)
            {
                str.append(line);
            }
            in.close();
        //b = false;
        html = str.toString();
