Romanian special characters (diacritics) are not displayed correctly

[GoogleCodeExporter]

This may be something specific to the OS used for map conversion. 

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Convert a map of a Romanian region on a Windows machine.
2. Upload maps and update database on the device.
3. Start app and select View Map

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
In the code the special characters are replaced, but it seems like not all
of them. We have 2 solutions:
a) support these characters in the app.
b) replace all of them at conversion time.

See attached screenshot.
