Additional comments
In Fields when I add a text with accents in the list of values in the article edition the fields doesn't show because there is a problem with simpleXML.

Looks like XML string needs to be decoded.
If you change line 728 in file libraries/joomla/form/form.php from
$data = new SimpleXMLElement($data);
to
$data = new SimpleXMLElement(html_entity_decode($data, ENT_QUOTES, "utf-8"));
warning is gone.
Done.
