Answer 1

I just did it using Jsoup, if it works for you:

private String htmlToXhtml(final String html) {
    final Document document = Jsoup.parse(html);
    document.outputSettings().syntax(Document.OutputSettings.Syntax.xml);
    return document.html();
}

Some useful content where my solution came from:
