If I recall correctly, there's some kind of mod with the fonts that I saw somewhere. You're going to have to Google it, but it has something to do with changing up the fonts of your phone, you'll probably need root access.
I know that GO keyboard and Go SMS support emojis but that's not for apps like Twitter, only for messaging iPhone users.
Let me know if I helped you out.

you can install handcent for your messaging app and then install the handcent emoji plugin and can view/send them
Ahhh. Ok, I already have handcent. Ill get that. Thanks a bunch. Any way to extend that to other programs?

No Prob, I don't know of any way to extend it. Would be cool though
Go for GoSMS. It's the best sms app for Android. It has plugin for Emoji plus sms folders.
+1 for GoSMS
as for extending it you can try using the UOT Kitchen to make a theme, you pick which elements of the theme you want or don't want, and I know emoji is an option. not sure what they have though cause I like the stock Android ones. hope this helps.
If you're rooted, see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=690781 for a way to get black-and-white emoji fonts.

SMS App with tablet UI

Hi every one
I'm currently looking for a SMS app that let me see my list of conversation on the left and the conversation I selected on the right (something like the landscape mode SMS app for Galaxy SII). All I can find when looking for a tablet SMS app are apps that read SMS from a phone and display them on the tablet, but that's not what I'm looking for, as I want this app on my Paranoid Android Galaxy S. I hope what I mean is understandable enough, thanks in advance for anyone who answers.
So you want the SMS app to look like the tablet version of gmail?

Yes, I'm looking for something like that.
The sidekick 4g also has a stock mms app in that style. Somebody would need to recompile it for aosp though. Better off with the other one though cuz the sidekick used custom everything...

split view
samsung comes with a nice split view on galaxy tabs, unfortunately lost the view with switch to cm.
in the market is tablet sms by player thong, which only helps you with sms sent from this app.
on the left is the contact list. checked it, deleted it.
No other good sms app for phablets?

Emojis?

I've seen a few apps in the Play Store (mostly just plugins for alternative SMS hosts like GoSMS) like Emoji Keyboard and Emoji Codec that I couldn't get to work. Then I attempted a method I found in the description of Emoji Keyboard's app information which involved replacing a file in system/fonts through root explorer. I know I did everything in the instructions but it didn't work for whatever reason.
I want to be able to send and receive emojis (at the very least, with someone using the same app as me) inter-Android and with iOS also if possible. Any possible app/method? I'm running CM10 8/16 build but will be updating to the 8/23 build that's coming.
And I'd prefer not to use What's App. Thanks in advance!

Open up native messaging app, hit menu and then settings. Scroll to bottom and there should be an option for "enable emojis"

It wasn't included in 8/16 CM10 but it's here now in 8/23 which is awesome BTW. Thank you. I was really looking for an app I could tell all the iPhone users and Droid users to get that would work for all of us (but not What's App). Anyway, thanks

Emojis that I send to iPhone 4/4S users go through. 3G and below can't see them for whatever reason
Likewise, emojis that I receive from iPhone 4/4S users show up on my Infuse

I think thats cause iphone and android made a universal emoji so that both can see it. I read an article about it a few months back when it was in the works..
Thanks making this post I had been using GO SMS just for emojis. My wife still has an iPhone.

My experience with CM10:
the only way to access emojis is through the messaging app. They can be sent through text messages by pressing the menu button and selecting “insert emojis" provided that you have emoji support enabled in messaging settings. (From my experience, only later builds of CM10 have emoji support. That's source code though and has nothing to do with our brilliant devs).
To get emojis into Facebook you need to use a copy-paste workaround.
1) Enter stock messaging app and go to a conversation.
2) Press the menu button
3) Select insert emojis
4) Select desired emojis
5) Press back button to return to the message.
6) Copy the emojis and paste them into Facebook
Most should work, some might not. It's hit or miss. Peace sign, thumbs up, hearts and many more are on the working list.

Just wish they would intergrate them more into other apps such as FB. That copy and paste method just takes up to much time. Olus i think they could revamp some of them as they are pretty stupid, maybe add the finger, We all know that we would like that one once in awhile. :good:

Couldn't agree more lol
I more recently flashed an emoji keyboard from the BaNkS GApps thread which you enable in input settings. So I use the selector notification every time I input text. Looks like this.

Changing font type for e-mail app

Hi guys,
I use my tab heavily for work, meaning that I send and receive a lot of e-mails. Is there a possiblity to change the font from Times New Roman to something like Calibri or something? If I remember correctly I had this option on the GT-N7000 but it disappeared there as well. Maybe I am missing something ?
Thanks.

Anyone?
You can change fonts under system/display, but charge is systemwide .

Not sure if that changes the font you write e-mails in... rather the display fonts....

Edit
I suggest you trying some other email apps out there, I'm sure some will have the feature you're looking for. If it's really, really important there's always the possibility to use an app like Dreamviewer and control your PC remotely from the tablet. That way you can use your own client at the computer at work and aren't limited to what the tablet can and can't.

Emoji across all apps?

On messaging, the emoji is the stock iPhone one, which is great for texting people with the other device, but on any other app it has the "android" version which is nice but annoying at the same time since I don't really know which emoji it corresponds to. Also, I can only use emoji in messaging, but if I copy and paste it to other apps, it shows up fine (but as the android version). Is there any way to be able to use these across other apps? Or be able to see the iPhone emoji on other apps?
First picture is the messaging app options, second pic is how it shows up in other apps.
