Missing Greek characters in Info window

Logos for Android has always had a problem with displaying some Greek and Hebrew characters in the Information pop-up window.

I was under the impression (http://community.logos.com/forums/t/53055.aspx) that this font problem would be resolved with Android 4.2. I now have Android 4.2.2 on my Samsung Galaxy Note 8 and there is no difference in the display of Greek characters. With some combinations of diacritical marks, there is no character displayed at all. I have been waiting a long time for Android 4.2.2. to arrive on my Samsung tablet and phone, so I am very disappointed that this did not resolve the font problem.

    Harry,

    I believe the issue with the info window is due to us needing to use a better font on that screen. Android 4.2.2 fixes the rendering of Hebrew fonts, but we have to actually be using a Hebrew font in the first place. [:)]  We were actually just talking about this on Friday and a case was written up for fixing it. I can't promise it will make it into the next release (because the next release is fast approaching), but hopefully it's something that will be resolved soon.

    You may be interested in joining our beta program (details here: http://community.logos.com/forums/t/59519.aspx) which will allow you to get the fix as soon as it is ready, instead of waiting for it to arrive on the stable channel.
