First, you need to understand how the settings and processing works.

* study CONVERT(), ALTER TABLE, etc.
* Find what settings exist in PhpMyadmin.

There is some chance that you have converted it correctly, but things look wrong. The only sure way to know if the data is 'correct' is with HEX and other tips in the web page above.

PhpMyadmin lets you enter SQL statements in one of its windows. Go there and pretend you are in the commandline mysql. It's at least close.
