You can check that your string is encoded or not by this code

public boolean isEncoded(String input) {

    char[] charArray = input.toCharArray();
    for (int i = 0, charArrayLength = charArray.length; i < charArrayLength; i++) {
        Character c = charArray[i];
        if (Character.getType(c) == Character.OTHER_LETTER)){
            return true;
        }
    }
    return false;
}
