Are all the Unicode characters supported on Android

Question

My question is simple. Are all Unicode characters available in Android? I actually am using the soft keyboard and I want to add a few arabic letters which I can't find the codes for.

Answer 1

Android supports UTF-8 but you will not be able to use arabic, if it's not installed in your OS. There are ways to install new fonts, but some of them needs jailbreaking your phone.

Answer 2

It does not appear so. This open issue on the android code site lists many missing characters.
