Hi,

I only have Python 2 on my phone, but I am suprised that you (and are able = to) decode unicode strings. What result do you get when you do the followin= g in Python 3:

Python 2.7.2 (default, Oct 25 2014, 20:52:15)
[GCC 4.9 20140827 (prerelease)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "= license" for more information.
>>> import codecs
>>> codecs.decode(b'=E2=82=AC', 'unicode-escape')<= br> u'\xe2\x82\xac'
>>> codecs.encode(u'=E2=82=AC', 'unicode-escape')<= br> '\\xe2\\x82\\xac'
>>>


Python 3.3= .3 (default, Nov 27 2013, 17:12:35)=C2=A0
[= GCC 4.8.2] on linux
>>> import cod= ecs
>>> codecs.decode(b'=E2=82= =AC', 'unicode-escape')
=C2=A0 = File "<stdin>", line 1
Synt= axError: bytes can only contain ASCII literal characters.
>>> codecs.encode(u'=E2=82=AC', 'unic= ode-escape')
b'\\u20ac'
