I am using ❤ symbol in my android widget, but on some Android 2.x devices and on Android 2.x emulators I got a square symbol like this □ instead of ❤
What you would recommend to me? I`m thinking about using custom font with that symbol...
May be some companies just removing not necessary symbols from system fonts?

Heart symbol on Android Most likely, heart text symbol emoji is in your default keyboard key set. On my Galaxy SIII I can get ♡ and ♥ symbols by pressing [123] and then [1/3], and on Galaxy Note 4 with Android 5 can get ♡ via [Sym] and then [1/2].
Fontarian Sweet Heart Font Fontarian Sweet Heart is a unique heart letter font. It was developed from handwriting and comes with two versions, one without hearts and one with heart font symbols. Each character has a specific placement for the heart shapes that look as if they're growing out of the strokes.
Go to the symbol keypad to add symbols.For iOS tap the "123" button; for Android and others it can be either a button with either "symb," "? 123," "*#(" or "@!?" on it.
Windows: Press and hold the Alt key, then press 3 on the numeric keypad on the right side of your keyboard. This will insert the heart symbol (♥). Alt+3 is an example of a Windows Alt code, which is an easy way to enter hundreds of special characters in Windows.
Well I'd just load a Custom font or maybe even a newer version of the default android font used in later devices... Or you might even get away with displaying a picture depending on what your doing, and what your goals are...

The fonts shipped with Android don’t seem to contain the heart symbol; even the Droid Sans Pro fonts, available for extra fee, don’t have it.
If you only need one special character not covered by common fonts, it is probably best to use an image for it. Create an image with the symbol in large size (say, 5 or 10 times common text font size), and use an scales it down to copy text size.
There are free fonts that contain the “❤” character, but it sounds pointless to use a font (typically, a large font, which needs to be served in different font formats) just to get one symbol displayed.
