Answer 1

here you go ;^)

public static String URLencode(String s)
{
    if (s!=null) {
        StringBuffer tmp = new StringBuffer();
        int i=0;
        try {
            while (true) {
                int b = (int)s.charAt(i++);
                if ((b>=0x30 && b<=0x39) || (b>=0x41 && b<=0x5A) || (b>=0x61 && b<=0x7A)) {
                    tmp.append((char)b);
                }
                else {
                    tmp.append("%");
                    if (b <= 0xf) tmp.append("0");
                    tmp.append(Integer.toHexString(b));
                }
            }
        }
        catch (Exception e) {}
        return tmp.toString();
    }
    return null;
}

Whyt don't you use RIM's URLEncodedPostData?

private String encodeUrl(String hsURL) {
 URLEncodedPostData urlEncoder = new URLEncodedPostData("UTF-8", false);
 urlEncoder.setData(hsURL);
 hsURL = urlEncoder.toString();
 return hsURL;
}
