Your phone is obviously using vCalendar 1.0 to send events, otherwise  
using the ENCODING parameter was not allowed. If no character set is  
specified in with the encoding parameter, ascii encoding must be  
assumed.
One could probably argue though that the phone is using the option to  
specify the charset encoding on the transport layer or another higher  
layer though. What charset does it specify in the xml header of the  
logged client messages? If it specifies UTF-8, then your phone is  
definitly broken.
