mysqli cant set encoding

i've been trying to set encoding for mysql connection to utf8

    $conn = mysqli_init();
    $conn->real_connect("127.0.0.1", null, null, null, 9306, null);

    $conn->set_charset('utf8');
    var_dump($conn->get_charset());die

but it's still latin1;

i need to use only mysqli because now i'm using SphinxQL query builder https://github.com/FoolCode/SphinxQL-Query-Builder

Solution

  • i fix the problem here problem was in mb_ encoding functions
