Answer 1

Since some people like to nitpick, I'll add the answer to the question (even though it was already answered and chosen as the correct answer) ...

I agree with the chose answer to this question, use the following code:

Gson gson = new GsonBuilder().disableHtmlEscaping().create();
String s2 = gson.toJson(hm.toString());
s2.replace("\\\\", "\\");

@Bajrang Hudda has asked about \n ... I hit this issue recently ... I was able to solve it using:

Gson gson = new Gson();
String json = (gson.toJson(data)).replaceAll("\\\\n", "\\n");

Answer 2

The = sign is encoded to \u003d. Hence you need to use disableHtmlEscaping().

You can use

Gson gson = new GsonBuilder().disableHtmlEscaping().create();
String s2 = gson.toJson(hm.toString());

For \/ turning into \\/ issue, the solution is

s2.replace("\\\\", "\\");
