React-native fontawesome some icons are not showing

Question

I just added FontAwesome without third-party libary like this tutorial and its mainly working but some (about the half) of all Icons are just empty sqares

so what am i doing wrong? or is FontAwesome just partially available in React-native?

thanks for your help in advance

Edit 1:

code I am using:

import React, { Component } from 'react';
import { Text, View, Button, AsyncStorage, ScrollView } from 'react-native';
import styles from './../Styles/styles';

  render() {
   return (
    <ScrollView>
     <View style={styles.container}>

{...some other unrelated stuff here...}

      <Text style={{ fontFamily: 'fontawesome', fontSize: 16 }}>
