[MOD] Samsungs coloured emojis from the 4.4-leak for S4 - Galaxy S III Themes and Apps

I snagged the NotoColorEmoji.ttf from the leaked firmware since i can't stand Googles mutant emojis. I am using this on my phone running Super Nexus 4.0, but in theory it should work on any 4.4.X-rom.
Just extract the ttf from the zip and drop it in your /system/fonts/-directory with the proper permissions, -rw-r--r--. Reboot and wipe cache just in case.
Backup just in case and once again, the zip is NOT for flashing! Feel free to make a flashable zip from it, i have no idea how to make them.
Enjoy.

Done.
But not showing up anywhere.

As Frozenblade33 said, they require KitKat to work. I forgot to write it in the description, it is added now.

Is it possible to get it working on 4.3?

I doubt it since to my knowledge 4.3 and below can't read the colour codes embedded in the font file.

The user angelsel managed to port the Apple emojis over at [MOD] Apple Color Emoji system-wide for KitKat, maybe he/she could help you with that?

I, like you, dislike the "mutant" emoji Google has forced upon us, but these emoji are substantially smaller. Do you know how to make them bigger? Preferably the same size as Google's?
P.S. The best way to do this is to just rename Samsung's emoji to AndroidEmoji.ttf, and rename AndroidEmoji.ttf to AndroidEmojiOld.ttf after placing it in the fonts folder in the system directory.

Sent from my LG-LS980 using Tapatalk 4

So, for some reason the emojis posted here are the ones my phone has been displaying ever since it updated a month or so ago. I have an S4 that still has 4.3 on it and I can't find a file anywhere called NotoColorEmoji.ttf so I have no idea where they're coming from.
I've actually been wanting to change them back to the old ones, which I prefer, but can't for the life of me figure out how to do it. I assume because I haven't found the source file yet? Does anyone have any ideas/suggestions?

[REQ] Gradient Fix for settings screen/etc

A while back on my galaxy nexus someone had created a gradient fix which fixes the ugly gradient effect on the settings menus and other programs that use the same gradient.
Anyone that can do the same for this?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1588613
I'll take a look at it later today. Because recently Google changed the background to an XML file instead of an image like it used to be so it may prove to be useless.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
Edit: Yeah unforturnetly i cant port it, since 4.2 its now an xml that controls the background_holo, However i could remove the xml's and then just use the image... hmm... gives me an idea... can you give me your rom's framework-res.apk and be willing to test something for me?
Yea sure, where do i find that file with root manager?
I found one in system/framework/framework-res.apk hope this is what you need!

No.. they've already acknowledged the issue and promised a fix. Just didn't happen in time for the 4.2.1 update (they had to fix that December bug quickly)
I think UBER forgot about this
There has to be a way! Can the ROMS be modified to look at a png instead of a xml file?

Ahh, really? I missed that! Thanks
I always just assumed that's how they designed it, I mean the first time if it was an image, someone had to have designed and approved that image right? That's why I always just assumed that's what they wanted it to look like, Cuz they could have just used a plain image if they intended it to be a flat background.... Lol,
(Now this makes me think they DID intend it to look like that, but when sooooo many users said they didn't like it they decided "hmm, let's just call it a bug and we'll change it later" hahaha)

[Q] Possible to install AOSP Messaging app on TouchWiz ROM?

Hi all,
After trying out CM10.1, I've found it to be a little too unstable at this early stage and have flashed back to Wanamlite. I can live with TouchWiz for now, but the one app on TouchWiz I really can't stand is the Messaging/SMS app.
Is it possible to flash an AOSP/vanilla version of the Android messaging app onto my phone?
Would it need to replace the TouchWiz one, or would it work side-by-side with it?
Where could I get an up to date AOSP SMS app?
Any help would be great!

Its possible. It replaces the tw version. There is one in themes/apps section for the sprint s3. You have to push the file to system/app. Rename it and set perm.

Works a treat. A little bit different to the steps they advised though; putting mms.apk in the system/app folder with the correct permissions wouldn't work - I could put it in there, but the application wouldn't actually load when rebooted.
I then tried installing it as an APK, but no go; Android said there was another system app installed. So I moved secmms up one level, rebooted into recovery, fixed permissions, and now it's fine.

Hi All,
Try this version. I took this from the S3 AOSP Codec ROM which is version 4.0.4~ish. Works great on my S3 (GT-I9300) with XXELL4 ROM 4.1.2 Jelly Bean
It has:
- Dark theme (4.2 theme I think)
- Emoticons
- emojis

[REQ] ADDING of NEW Emojis in MMS.apk

Hello people. :cyclops:
Surely you've noticed that the current Mms.apk (e.g. in AOKP, Xylon) just contains the old Emojis. If you take a look into iOS6 or WhatsApp you will see many more of them like these in the attachment.
So, isn't it possible to add the new Emojis into the Mms.apk? I am sure it is really easy for an experienced developer.
If not, can someone post me a manual, please. In the attachment is the package with all the Emojis and the Mms.apk from AOKP (with Quick-Emoji-Button).
Regards.
It really is especially with this.. Unzip your emoji file, and then just open Mms.apk with 7zip and find the location of where the original are and drag and drop but make sure to rename them the way the originals are in the Mms.apk and just save and copy it back to your phone..

The native keyboard contains the standard *green* emoticons by Android ... not the WhatsApp-Emojis. Correct me if i am wrong.

Stock LG Keyboard [deodexed]

I know some people have been wanting to use the stock lg keyboard on some roms but have been having crashing problems. This is the stock keyboard working fine. Except the touch sounds and haptic feedback, I'm going to try to see if I can fix that. Anyway, I've tested this on Lifeless v14 only. If anybody tests it on other roms with success let me know.
Drop this into system/app and fix the permissions and reboot. Zip is not flashable
Edit: http://www.mediafire.com/?77xptx7aa7ax8x4
You must have the xposed framework to make the keyboard work.
I've tested on stock deodexed, didn't work.

Force closes right after choosing it, it shows in the language and keyboards menu though. This is an ongoing issue with trying to deodex this keyboard, I believe the issue is in the classes.dex files.

I know. But as far as I know it should close on every deodexed rom. That's why lifeless and imperium don't include it. But it works for me on lifeless. I wish somebody on imperium would test it. So I can see if maybe I'm just lucky, or a stock deodex won't work.

Let us know when u find out, I forgot to tell u the the apk is named LGEIMEbin, and its supposed to be LGEIME, not that it helps to name it correctly but fyi, I will be looking at this as well but so far any deodexing will cause the app to not work on my end, and once deodexed there are a whole bunch of string errors when decompiling the app, hence the issue has to be with the classes.dex file as that's the one that gets added to the file when the app is deodexed, the classes.dex are the odex files in the apk.

Really? Darn I would have thought maybe the systemui had something to do with it. I really didn't stray too far off from stock lifeless. Just changed the lgsystemui and lgsettings. And maybe the apks in the framework folder. But I don't remember if I put them back to the original or not as they seemed to make no difference.

Would love to see the stock keyboard deodexed for 4.1.2. I just created a custom conversation skin pack (still waiting to make ten posts before I can post links) but with the keyboard that is on lifeless it feels like it's way too bulky and takes up too much of the screen and I want to see my HQ backgrounds in all their glory. Also, the stock keyboard allowed me to path off of the screen and add a bit more control to swiped words.

Rotating touchwiz?

So, after a few searches, both on Google and on the forums, I cannot find this mod.
Does anyone know of a stock touchwiz launcher, modified to rotate?
I hate it when my phone is in landscape on the table or something, and I have to work with a portrait launcher. But I like the stock touchwiz, and would like to keep it.
Any help would be appreciated.

Lol, I'm such a noob!
Now if only I could get that last row of apps to show, that would be nice.

i dont think you can with this app because it doesnt readjust the grid it just rotates and squishes it so most of it fits

Right, there's a bit of the top showing though, and I can still open the app.
Except for the one in the middle, because the page indicator is right there.
I would still prefer a modified launcher though.
But I'm using this until, hopefully, someday a modded touchwiz appears on the scene.
I remember I had one on my Galaxy s 4g.

How are you at custom work. In your framework-res.apk. decompile. Find /res/values/bools.XML. change "config_allowAllRotations" to true
Change "enableLockScreenRotation" to true.
Save recompile install. Enjoy

If it is not too much to ask, Can you Please do this for us coz i need this for my phone too. right now i am using Apex Launcher but i would rather use TouchWiz. if you decompile it and then upload it here we would really appreciate it. Thanks in advance. i don't know anything about decompiling otherwise i would do it myself..
I'm on gs3. Can you upload a copy of yours?
Can you put it in dropbox? I can take a look after work.

I tried uploading my framework res. apk, but it's too big a file.
I'm trying to learn how to decompile, but my step daughter just took the computer from me, to talk to her grandma in Brazil.
I'm gonna try later though.
Thanks for your help.

Well, I'm a noob at decompiling.
So what I did was change the extension from framework-res.apk to .zip, and extract it.
In the /res/ folder there is no /values folder.
I've been searching for a bools.xml folder, but no luck.
Is this something that will only show by decompiling?
Or is the GN2 framework diferent from the GS3 one?
TIA
That would work to edit images. You need to use apktool (search it ) to decompile the file before you can edit those values. I will be home in about an hour if you can find somewhere to upload it i can take a look. However i believe if you look up apktool it will be pretty easy to do yourself. Just dont forgot to make a backup in case something goes off

Yeah, I've been following this guide, but I always get an error when decompiling.
Hmm, let me try a dropbox link.
Let me know if that was successful.
Thanks for all your help!
Modded framework
http://db.tt/8HUWcSFN
needs renamed because I'm lazy
Here is a flashable zip. Disregard it saying edge zoom. It's an old zip. It works on s3 may not be the right flasher for you but you can try it
http://db.tt/biIOIpUC
Oh yes also. I looked at the guide you are following and got lost. There are several quality guides on this site. Here is a good one for beginners

Thanks for all your trouble.
However, I got the file on your first link, renamed it to framework-res.apk, and copied it to system/framework.
As I started to get a lot of force closes, I did a reboot.
This resulted in an endless boot loop, which forced me to pull my battery, get into recovery, and restore my system.
So back to the drawing board, I guess.
I still appreciate all your help. Thanks for using your time to help a stranger. :thumbup:

I'm uploading a zip to replace the modded with the original. Try installing from recovery and if that still boot loops try fixing permissions. Only thing i changed was the bools.XML
If it still fails you should be able to use this remove zip

So, you're saying flash the the zip on the second link in your previous post.
And if that goes wrong, flash the zip on this latest post?
I'm at work right now, but I'll try later tonight.
Thanks.

Funny I'm just headed out to work. The first post has a zip to install screen rotating. The second post is your unmodified original framework so when you try the modified again. if it does not work, you can replace with the original file from the second post instead of having to wait through a full reset
That does seem odd. Maybe it's the flashable file. It was for my gs3. I've replaced them with the update scripts from a Galaxy note 2 package. They are the same download links as before. I verified that it is the modified file there. Was there any error? Did you verify that it actually copied the file? Easiest to tell by looking at the date it was modified. Its really not that great of a mod anyway. The constant rotation gets annoying and this method doesn't give a toggle. Still try the new zips and see if that makes the difference

Well, I flashed the ScreenRotation.Zip, and while nothing wrong happened, nothing happened at all! Everything is just normal, no screen rotation.
Bummer, huh?
