[Q] Changing/adding to the default emoji in 4.2 - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

I am on the latest iteration of stock Jellybean, and I have been using the built-in emoji support to send messages to friends. However, I've found that the number of emoji supported in Android is not equal to the emoji in iOS (for example, the sleeping emoji or the angel smiley face emoji. i.e :angel: )
Is there a font out there that edits the fallback font to support these emoji in the stock rom? If not, what would be the best way to edit the font to gain full support?
If possible, I would also be interested in going through and cleaning up the current emoji, because some are rather hard to see and look decidedly different from their iOS color counterparts.

Emoji in CM10

Hey guys, I rooted my GNex finally (had some free time), and I'm rocking the CM10 M-series build for October. I plan on flashning a nightly soon.
I love that CM10 has emoji in the stock MMS app, but I hate that when my iPhone friends send me certain emoji, I see the android smiley instead of the real emoji for that 'expression'. Is there anyway to get all the real emoji and remove the android smileys completely?
Also, is there some mod to flash to get the iOS 6 emoji on CM10? All I see is a black and white icon when people send me them..
Thanks in advance,

You have to find a custom MMS app that supports emoji. The one I'm using right now can see iPhone emoji, but it's also inverted...not sure if you want that as well.

GoSMS Pro supports the Emoji icons thats not the android version. Maybe you can take a look at that
I was looking for more of a native way, so I can keep using the stock app.
Do any of the flashable mods have all the emoji w/o any of the android smileys?

How to change keyboard and emojis to Lollipop ones (after Marshmallow update)

Hello,
I've just updated my M8 to Android 6.0. What surprised me was keyboard. White and eye hurting. I would like to change it back to old, dark one. As I searched through, it is possible to do that by changing theme to Material Dark, but I cannot find that.
Another thing is.. emojis. Ugly Samsung ones. :\ How could I change it to old ones?
Thank you for suggestions!
emoji free font theme
it changes it to the ones like the iphone
also it changes the font
the font itself is kinda stock and just fine
but you get the whatsapp /apple emoji's witch is awesome

[REQUEST] XPERIA KEYBOARD compatible with latest emojis from unicode 9 (emojione 2.2)

Hello everyone
Unfortunately the new emojis from unicode 9 aren't compatible with our beloved Xperia keyboard (really love it) I think not even with emojis from unicode 8 (the new that came with marshmallow), Actually they are only compatible with Google keyboard from Android N dv2+
Since the new emojis are really Awesome I wonder if any good fella here could mod the latest Xperia Keyboard (7.3.A.0.20) for it to be capable to show the new emojis
Help me
If I'm not mistaken Xperia keyboard, as well as many others use the native android emoji selection. Google keyboard uses its own emoji chooser so it can be edited to support different emoji. I'm not sure what needs to be edited, but I don't think it's in the Xperia keyboard.

The xperia keyboard needs to be modded I think, like this one from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/mot...peria-keyboard-6-7-0-90-lastest-cm12-t3222712
Of course this one doesnt work on stock lollipop firm
???
The keyboard you linked is unmodified Xperia keyboard. It shows the new emoji for me on mm. You might be out of luck

Actually I'm using the xperia keyboard from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software-hacking/mod-keyboards-emoji-fonts-ios9-1-t3296282
Of course this one shows the emojis from unicode 8
I already installed the font files from unicode 9 emojis but the app doesn't show new ones, so I don't know what's the problem
I'm on lollipop though

Android UI font

Hi, I have a quick question for all of you. We know that Roboto is the standard font that we need to use for our Android App. Google Material design specification mentions about Roboto font.. I would like to know can designer/developer use different fonts like Open Sans, sans-serif etc for designing the android UI. Could you please suggest how to use different fonts for Android design? Does it break any rules or does it work in every android screen density? Is it mandatory to use the Roboto font?

Hi,
I read your query and would like to share my experience regarding the fonts used in Android applications. Roboto is the standard font because its visual effects are nice on the device but, it doesn't make it a mandatory choice while app development. You may go for whichever font suits your application until it doesn't make the app interface messy. Also, while choosing the font, you should not try to opt for multiple varieties of styles for a single application. One font style is enough to make app text clear and effective.
Thanks.

Anyway to get EmojiOne without having my font being changed?

I know the themes app has don't changing option but it uses Huawei hwt files. I don't quite understand how they work. Before this I'd just use magisk module to switch my emojis to EmojiOne/Joy Pixels. But now I'm lost cause there aren't any EmojiOne/Joy Pixels theme made for Huawei that I can just download. Neither do I know how to make them myself. Neither do I have root or can root to use magisk modules.
Besides I found a really cool font. I noticed if I use iOS emojis, the font also gets switched. I wanna have Dubai font for Arabic, custom English font and EmojiOne/joy pixels emoji. Wonder if it's possible to mix and match like that
Whoops I screwed up, how do I move this to questions section?
