It looks like some layer adds quotes to the front and back of each string. Without knowing more I suggest you do a simple str = str.substring(1, str.length() - 1)
to remove the two quotes that were added. We can't tell you if it's about some 'fundamental data issue" because we don't see anything else.
If you want to get really safe you can just use indexOf("\"");
and lastIndexOf("\"");
, see if they are respectively indices 0 and str.length() - 1
and if they are: strip them.
