[Q] Change emoji - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there,
is it possible to change those terrible standard LG smilies with other ones? Or maybe there is a mod out there?
I prefer the original one of Android.

Make the one you use your default keyboard.

Jeez, those are terrible lol ?

So i found out it has todo with the fonts in /system/font/NotoColorEmoji.ttf and NotoColorEmoji_NonAME.ttf
I've changed with the rootexplorer the filename to NotoColorEmoji.old and NotoColorEmoji_NonAME.old and the smilies have gone. So i think we only need the correct .ttf-File for the smilies and change it to NotoColorEmoji.ttf and NotoColorEmoji_NonAME.ttf.
I will try that out later...

I've written a little guide how you could change it.
Look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/themes-apps/howto-change-lg-smiley-to-google-smiley-t2809012

Well, I kind of like them. Better than the stock android smileys in my opinion.

@Protagoras it's just a possibility to change it, not more. So tastes differ.
I don't like them, because it's hard to see the difference between them.

Oh sure, I was not criticizing the thread. In fact I learned something so it's all good (Didn't know what file had the emojis)

no problem dude. Keep goin. :good:

Emoticons
I am able to send emojis just fine but when people send them to me they just show up as symbols.
Ex. If I receive a smiling emoji from someone it shows up as "X=^" instead of the actual emoji. Any suggestions on what to do ?

many thanks
it's too beautifull!!!!!!!!..I hope someone can make this cab!
for real!! my fat fingers are struggling with the provided keyboard.
it's beautiful and useful
somebody in this forum is making a htc yoga skin for TOUCH PAL KEYBOARD.. look out some postings before.. maybe its gonna be great
yeh but I don"t want to use touchpal...I want to keep the default keyboard
touchpal is not the same as yota keyboard...
what i really like about yota keyboard is that its quite precise and that it also has the free space before the letters "a" and "l" which makes them easier to use if your HD is in a case.
any news about this guys ???
If someone explain at least how to edit the keyboard I can try to make it

is it transparent? or does it always have the clouds background? looks pretty sweet to me....
unfortunately it has clouds background. I will make a few more variants.
I don;t know at the moment how could I make it transparent
this app are wonderfull...
To make it transparent you will have to use photoshop or gimp
trust me mate, I tried. But it's not that. If I make it transparent, it will show a black background.... I don;t know how to make it
you can do a version without that dialer image?
Works nice but force closes phone.apk when ending a call. I googled this problem but solution didn't work.still,it works and looks good
Hmmmm... Very nice butt of this Tati... LoL
) this is the default image for contacts without an image allocated.
@RobZarzecki if you have problems, PM me with your phone's original Phone.apk and I will mod it for you

I was trying to modify my stock dialer on my droid x a while back and gave up. I remember seeing a thread about it for the motorola phones though, the color had nothing to do with photoshop. Instead, it was color codes that needed edited in a hex file. I am brand new to samsung, so I'm not sure if that helps you at all. But you got further than I did on the X. Good luck
I am trying to install but no luck, am getting a "not installed" after trying.
Is anyone else experiencing this ?
Cheers, LL-
You use root explorer in market, have copy and paste in system/app

Xperia x8 not working
The apk file whose link you give is not recognised as an apk file by the astro file manager
I take it this won't work on CM7? In that case, could a dev kindly port it over, if possible?
Is the best!

Does anyone implement this in JVS 2.3.5 ??

MIUI: Icons

Hi.
I was wondering if there is any way of reverting back to Android shaped icons for apps, as I am not fond of the default MIUI iPhoney style icons.
If yes, please explain.
Many Thanks.
Anyone?

Yes with MIUI you can do lots of customization, not to stick on with iPhone style.

The screenshot you attached shows icon in a Square box, this is what I do not want. I want it to be translucent and only showing icon shape. You know what I mean, kapeesh.
Icons very customisable, I'm sure you will find something to suit.
You can either use the theme manager on your phone, or find some here on XDA.. There are many icons, trust me
looks nice. what does miui stand for?
No disrespect, but why is this thread getting so much attention from noobies who have no clue what I'm talking about and pointing out the obvious and irellavent answers?

Looking for a new dialer

Anybody find another dialer that works with our phones? I'm not a huge fan of the stock dialer.
Go contacts
Dialer One is pretty bad ass.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
Trying out Touchpal Dialer by Cootek... I used Dialer One on my Nexus One and got on well with it but want something with a crisper UI...
+1 for Touchpal dialer.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using Tapatalk
ended up dumping touchpal dialer... Watchdog was flagging it as hi CPU even when the phone was idle... trying out GoDialerEX right now but have a feeling i'll find myself back with DialerOne... stock dialer is seriously lacking! why cant i click a pic of a contact after typing a few letters of their name and get actiuons like SMS, call, Open contact etc. the way I can with every other dialer??
Same about TouchPal... liked the crispness of the UI

+1 on this one, most of the apps they have are very good and user friendly.
go dialer/contacts is the best out, a lot of options/themes and stable
yup tried all 3 mentioned here and liked go dialer/contacts the most clean with options and had the functions I liked.

Yup... I'm running GoDialer EX at 200 as opposed to the stock 240 density and all is well... The green "call" butten is a tiny bit stretched but its tons better than the way the stock dialer looks at 200
Anyone know of a dialer like the one is sense...it was great at connecting pictures to Facebook and still only showing my Google contacts

How to use the iPhone's emoji keyboard on the Note 7

Hello, I really hope someone can help me with that.. I am a new Android user and got the Note 7.. I can't add the standard Emoji keyboard which can be found on Whatsapp or iOS in general. Is there any way that I can add the exact keyboard on my Note 7 so I can use it system wide?
There are plenty of different keyboards to be found in the Play Store. Pick one, install it, and try it out.
You may not be able to find an exact copy of the iOS keyboard, though.
Sent from my SM-N930W8 using XDA Labs
All keyboards use the system emoji, if you want to change it system-wide you need root.
emoji switcher app is pretty good!
Thank you guys for your propositions.. But I do not want to root my phone in order not to loose the Guarantee.. Got it from the official local Samsung store.. I guess there is no decent Emoji on Android yet.. :/

I never owned iOS, so idk if could help. But the emoji icon are only difference on the keyboard.
Facebook for example, the emoji on iPhone and Android are different, but the typed emoji that will be shown on the app will be the same.
Try Google keyboard

Great! Thank you for the info!
Yo, try using the Textra messaging app (really smooth) and downloading the iphone emoji plugin! you get to see and use all of the iphone emojis including each variation of emoji
