Escape multiple “%” characters in Android

The % is a reserved character in XML like <, >, etc. Use %% for each % you are using in the string resource.

Encoding each as a unicode character in the xml works for me:

<string name="test">100\u0025 foo 40\u0025bar</string>

android xml escaping arrays

Using CDATA may work..

<item><![CDATA[100% foo 40%]]></item>
