Thanks for the update.

I believe I have now fixed this - there were a bunch of issues:
- Chinese Punctuation wasn't handled so words weren't being split on punctuation (Gadgetbridge)
- Words with Chinese chars couldn't be split at any point (Gadgetbridge)
- Very long words that made an image of over 255 pixels wide made an invalid image, which is what caused the blank messages you saw (Gadgetbridge)
- When there's an image+image, Bangle.js wouldn't 'wrap' them to the screen (image+space+image worked)
So you need to update Gadgetbridge to nightlies, as well as the Bangle.js firmware, but hopefully it's sorted now!

@houshou_m do you have experience to use the GB nightly and ... update of bangle.js firmware? It will take me sometime to figure it out, thanks.
pls see if "msg list"will work too, if possible thanks.

or in a few days time i could try my self.

===========extra, msg list also not working=======
however, today i got a long SMS in chinese, it seems wrapped ok in "msg list" but not so in "msg UI"(old version, as i dont know about GB nightly and firmware update).

anyway i'll try screenshot it out and copy here first. for reference, with software version numbers.
thanks

summary: both still not wrapping correctly.

better try out the modifications by gordon later, thanks

the 1st attachment is "msg UI", the 2nd one is "msg list"

You'll find a link to Gadgetbridge 'nightly' builds on this page: https://www.espruino.com/Gadgetbridge#how-to-set-up

Here's the bangle.js firmware updater on the app loader (there will be one file that's the 'cutting edge' one):
