Font are broken

  1. My fenix 7 X show Arabic fonts incorrectly on notifications and maps...

I thought it might be the issue with the OSM maps but after connecting it to my phone now all Arabic notifications are broken.

Garmin express didn't have any additional language update...Any thoughts?

  • The question marks are for Kurdish letters. I believe Garmin still doesn´t support Kurdish text. I have the same issue and it is for Kurdish letters (not Arabic). I reached out to Garmin more than two years ago and after some back and forth, this was their final answer: "After reviewing the information in the ticket, the incoming texts were in the Kurdi language and that isn't supported by our devices, when they came in the Arabic the text displayed correctly."

    I wonder if we can request a ticket asking Garmin to support Kurdish text? After all, most of the letters are already supported since they are same as Arabic and only a few more letters need to be supported.

  • Hi  for your reference. I had this issue 10 min ago. Chinese font malfunctioned (some of the characters in notification and menu) . But it is back to normal after a shutdown and restart.

  • Yeah you're right it just needs a bit modification or simply adding new fonts that support Kurdish.

  • Hi, from what I understand, in your case, Garmin supports Chinese fonts and what happened was just a temporary malfunction. In case of Kurdish letters, it doesn't support it at all, except for the ones that are shared with Arabic.

  • زۆر سوپاس، من زیاتر خۆشحال بووم. من فینکس ٦ پرۆ بەکاردەهێنم. ئێستا پتر لە ٢ ساڵە کە بەکاری دەهێنم
