Could you share your exact test?  And no, my tests didn't use all 
encoded values – here's one of the examples, once again:

public class URITest3 {

     public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
         URI u = URI.create("http://server1/path"
                 + "?param%3D1=value%261&param%3F2=value%232"
                 + "#fragment");
         System.out.println(u.toASCIIString());

         URI v = new URI(u.getScheme(),
                         u.getUserInfo(),
                         "server2",
                         u.getPort(),
                         u.getPath(),
                         u.getQuery(),
                         u.getFragment());
         System.out.println(v.toASCIIString());

         URI w = new URI(u.getScheme(),
                         u.getRawUserInfo(),
                         "server3",
                         u.getPort(),
                         u.getRawPath(),
                         u.getRawQuery(),
                         u.getRawFragment());
         System.out.println(w.toASCIIString());
     }

}

The original URI 'u' is:

http://server1/path?param%3D1=value%261&param%3F2=value%232#fragment

Then the URI 'v' which is constructed with all decoded arguments 
becomes:

http://server2/path?param=1=value&1&param?2=value%232#fragment

Note how the 'query' is wrong now.

However, the URI 'w' which uses the encoded arguments is also wrong:

http://server3/path?param%253D1=value%25261&param%253F2=value%25232#fragment
