I have a String can’t in StringBuffer(i.e. sb).
I want to change it to cant't
But when I try

sb.replace(0, sb.length(),( (sb.toString()).replaceAll("’","'")));

it gives me o/p at cant’t.

You can define string with ' character inside the in Strings.xml file:

For example:

<string name="good_example">"This'll work"</string>
<string name="good_example_2">This\'ll also work</string>

For more info, check this Android SDK: String R
