There is really long time i used serial port, but from my memory there
is something like serialB.EndOfLine no ?
in this case yu just need to set it null
also with ASCII there was readline or read, so read normaly don't add
endline, en so after UTF8.getbyte(str)
Also for reading purpose i suggest you to use the serial port event,
data receveid (need callback of async task)
