Turkish characters don't appear in Android

Question

I have this xml :

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/tv_mytv"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
 />

And I have this Java :

TextView mytv;
mytv= (TextView) findViewById(R.id.tv_mytv);
mytv.setText(Html.fromHtml("<p>ğüşçı</p>"));

When I run the emulator, All I get is question marks in diamond shaped icons. How can I make my app display Turkish characters? Thanks.

@AnandSingh I have `` in Android manifest if that's what you are asking. — jason, Aug 11 '15 at 12:57

Check that the charset is set to UTF-8/16 or ISO-8859-9 (Turkish charset). If that doesn't solve the problem, it could be the font itself. Try running the app on a real device to see if it works.
EDIT -
You can also try unicode charecters. For example - http://unicode-table.com/

Thank you, can you tell me how I can check charset? Thanks. – jason Aug 11 '15 at 13:00
To write charset, use in the first line of XML. Replace YOUR CHARSET with the specific charset. – FadedCoder Aug 11 '15 at 13:05
