Activate Emojis System Wide? - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was able to get iOS emojis flashed onto my N5, but im not too sure how I can activate it throughout my WHOLE phone, FB, Twitter, IG, etc. There aren't any options to use Emoji in Textra or Twitter.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Get a keyboard that supports them. Many do. At the moment I'm using Kii.

Okay, so I'm assuming you've downloaded the Emoji app already...
Just follow the instructions hope it will work out for you.
To enable the Emoji keyboard, go to Settings > General > International > Keyboards > Add New Keyboard > Emoji.
And to use it when you type, click on the little icon with the globe on it to switch keyboard, and then use.
Kindly go through this

The Google keyboard has emojis built in if you long-press the enter key. The AOSP keyboard does not!
Here's one of the places where you can find the google keyboard

Aosp ics keyboard

Update 2:T
There is something massively wrong with the dictionary on this keyboard. I am going to uninstall it and try another one. I'll leave this one up as it works, just has a dictionary that's missing basic words.
Update:
Ripped this out of a Sensation (qHD res) AOSP ROM.
Considerations:
Works perfectly
SMS app is not registering as such and therefore you are not getting access to emoticons but it does give you emoticons in G+
Notification is semi-persistent in the bar about selecting input type (no idea why)
To Install
Check install non-market apps in security settings
E-mail attached apk to yourself via gmail
Click install in gmail app
Turn on keyboard via "languages & Keyboard"

Hi,
I really dislike the HTC Sense keyboard. Is it possible to just sideload the ICS keyboard?
There are a few available on the market but i much prefer just to use the raw apk, not someone has reworked.
Thanks!
Debatable I got the ics keyboard from market its nice and a few more options

I decided to give it a try:
I ripped out the keyboard out of this rom:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1494373
e-mailed latinIME.apk to myself on gmail.
Clicked install and it worked perfectly.
Only issues is that I am still not getting the emoticons on the SMS app because the keyboard only shows emoticons in chat/messaging apps not email. The SMS apps seems to not register itself as a SMS/messaging app.
I've attached the keyboard to the first post for all to enjoy.

[Q] How do I remove the emoji key from Google Keyboard 2.0

How, for the love of god do I remove the emoji keyboard symbol from the 2.0 keyboard?
Look I am not an emoji hater, I just choose to not use them.
I don't understand how Google felt they were more important that the return key, which I did use.
Can anyone help me rid my keyboard of that emoji symbol?

not sure.... but i do remember upon installing an aosp messaging app the option was there to turn off emojis. i didnt try it though. you could probably just dig up and apk of a previous stock key board that doesnt have emojis or just use some of the ones in the play store

You could just hit shift and then enter..

Emoji (Unicode 9.0) - WhatsApp vs GBoard

Currently when using WhatsApp I don't have access to the new set of emojis that were released last year. When people send them to me in WhatsApp they're rendered as GBoard emojis plus extra noise like squares and women symbols.
If I use the GBoard emoji settings I can send them but they're rendered as the Google versions and not the WhatsApp ones, and even when sent as a single emoji WhatsApp doesn't enlarge it like it does the ones available from within the app when tapping the smiley face icon to the left of the text entry box.
WhatsApp have said that this is nothing to do with them, it's all down to the phone. Is this correct? The phone seems to have the ability to display them through GBoard but I'm wondering why not through WhatsApp as native apps. Is there a way to get the Unicode 9.0 characters into WhatsApp without rooting my phone?
Thanks.
whatsapp just rolled out a beta update through the play store , including new emojis and updating (some? i don't think they reworked everything) existing ones

Samsung Keyboard v 2.0.21.26

Since the last update of Samsung Keyboard, I am not being able to have a Emoji Key on keyboard while replying from Notifications. Whether it is Message, Whatsapp, etc. there is no Emoji Button on the keyboard. In order to add Emojis I have to go to the app itself.
Is anyone else having the same issue???
Still no luck! I guess no one is having the issue.
Using gboard... sorry
When you're trying to answer from the notifications, you'll not be able to use emojis. Emojis will be available just in apps and not in quick reply.

How Can I Make the Direct Message Widget Use the Default SMS App on a Huawei P10 Plus

As above ..
I'm setting up a Huawei P10 Plus for someone and I'm a little rusty on Android. It's running the latest version of their EMUI software, 9.1.0 on Android Version 9.
I'm also using the latest version of Nova Launcher.
What i've done is this ..
Long press home screen.
Select "Widgets"
Scroll down to "Contacts" and select "Quick Message".
Long press on that and drag to home screen.
Choose contact.
When I tap the newly created widget, it always opens up the stock android messaging app regardless of what i've got set as my default SMS app. If I go to Settings->Apps->Default Apps and select "Textra", which is the preferred SMS option of the person i'm setting the phone up for, I get the usual warning but I tap on "Change" anyway.
I've tried installing Chomp and Pulse SMS and setting them as the default app and it still always uses the stock messaging app for the widget.
Am I doing anything wrong ?. Thanks.
Thanks for all the replies, It's taken me this long to get through them all ..
Anyway, I've fixed it. It turns out that the contacts app that I was using was the default Huawei one, so it didn't have the functionality to create the direct messaging widgets.
I installed the default google contacts app from the play store and I can now create the widgets exactly as I need. I'm happy for this thread to be closed now, but thanks again the the huge outpouring of support and suggestions ..
