Well this string is already encoded, you have to decode:

String sDecoded = URLDecoder.decode("mystring%201", "UTF-8");

so now sDecoded must have the value of "mystring 1".

The "Encoding" of String:

String sEncoded = URLEncoder.encode("mystring 1", "UTF-8");

sEncoded must have the value of "mystring%201"
