You need to specify the charset encoding in your XML, like so:

<?php
$xmlData = <<<XMLCODE
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf8"?>
<test>"привате</test>
XMLCODE;

$dom = new DomDocument;
$dom->loadXML( $xmlData );
echo $dom->saveXML();
?>

Description:
------------
saveXML function replaces UTF-8 characters to entities. If I have some
UTF-8 characters in my loaded XML file and want to save it with
saveXML, it replace everything to entities like this &#x10D; &#x159;
&#x17E; &#xFD;&#xE1; &#xED; &#xE9; I had to write my own saveXML in PHP
and it's really bad.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
$xmlData = <<<XMLCODE
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<test>"ìšèøžýáíé</test>
XMLCODE;

$dom = new DomDocument;
$dom->loadXML( $xmlData );
echo $dom->saveXML();
?>

Expected result:
----------------
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<test>"ìšèøžýáíé</test>

Actual result:
--------------
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<test>"&#x11B;&#x161;&#x10D;&#x159;&#x17E;&#xFD;&#xE1;&#xED;&#xE9;</test>
