In iTerm2, also make sure that you set both the regular font and the non-ASCII font to a patched powerline font. If you are using fontconfig, make sure bitmap fonts are not disabled. That rule, if exists, is usually under /etc/fonts/conf.d/70-no-bitmaps.conf for linux users, which might be a symbolic link. If that's the case, remove that link so that bitmap fonts are available system-wide.
