He was dealing with the same issue with his Kobo Aura reader. This solution is thanks to our helpful reader Henk D. If none of these solutions work for you, take your Kindle out to the nearest pond, give it a really solid throw and see how many times you can get it to skip across the water before it sinks down to a watery grave (tip: the more spin you can give it, the more skips you’ll get). The website for Duokan is entirely in Chinese, however there are a number of English language supports if you are interested in installing it on your device, specifically the Duokan entry on the Mobile Read forums. Duokan installs alongside the typical Kindle OS, so you can dual boot to it as well. Nearly every Kindle model can run Duokan (even the Kindle DX).

The third line of defense is to install Duokan, an alternative operating system for the Amazon Kindle which is designed specifically for the Chinese language.
The second line of defense refers to older models of the Kindle (Kindle 3 and earlier). There are a couple of the fonts native to the Kindle which are unable to display Chinese characters, but there are also a few others that do! Shuffle through them till the boxes go away. Under the font settings, try selecting a different English font. The first line of defense is to change the display font. However, if you are getting a bunch of boxes, there are a few things to try. The Kindle devices all support Chinese characters ( except for the Kindle DX but if you have one of those, look at the 3rd option). If you are facing any of these problems, hopefully this can help! While we are no experts, we have worked with a number of our customers on these issues and have found some common solutions. Frequently, the Chinese characters will show up as rows of boxes with question marks, or even more insidious, about 90% of the characters will display properly with the rest displaying as boxes. We frequently get emails from our readers asking for Chinese language support why their Kindle, Kobo, iBooks, or other e-reader device is not displaying characters. If this has happened to you, do not fret, you’re not alone.
You open it up and to your horror you see this.
