Hello,
I have a HTC One X with android 4.2.2. and my problem is that the emoji that iphone users use are always black. i have been told that android 4.4 kitkat has the colored emoji. so i was wondering how i could get let the emoji appear in color in every app that i use. is there any way to do it without rooting? because i am a little afraid that something would go wrong if i root my phone. and that i cant use my phone anymore. and i like how my phone works now. so i was hoping that there is a other way to get it?

are you able to get into recovery? i think you said you have a back up of stock so why not return to stock?
I love the material design messenger app, but the randomly assigned colors piss me off. Is there a modded apk or any way to set customize the background color? I would have thought google would have made in an option.
The only way you're going to be able to mod that is by decompiling the messenger apk and going from there. Seems like it would be a lot of work though. I could take a look it at but I doubt I have the know how in order to do it.

Crappy Half-Solution
I've been watching this thread hoping for a more elegant (i.e. code-based solution) but for the time being I found a sort-of work around. First, uninstall the messenger app. Then say you want to change Person A from showing up orange to showing up purple, just for the sake of example. Google image search purple screen (or whatever, the point is to get a plain purple image of a shade similar to the app's). Download the pic to your phone, change the contact's picture to the plain color picture. Reinstall app, and open it up. Person A's conversation should now be purple. It should even be safe to change the contact's picture back, the point is to have the plain color photo as the contact picture when you install and first open up the app. You should be able to change as many contacts to whichever conversation colors (that the app comes preloaded with) you wish. Some notes: I did this on an AT&T galaxy s 4 active running kit kat 4.4.2 with the google messenger app being used as default sms app. My motivation was my gf saw her's was the orange and wanted to figure out a way to switch it to pink, lol. When I figured this method out to do just that, I changed a friend's convo color from green to red, and then an additional friend's from purple to green in order to verify. Again maybe this doesn't work all the time, or maybe it doesn't work on your device or maybe it's too much of a chore, but if you're looking to change conversation colors in this (otherwise very well put-together) app, this is the only way I've heard of so far. Hope this helps :good:
I don't know if it matters but I'm rooted stuck on touchwiz (locked bootloaders are a terrible thing, but at least it's de-odexed and I can mod it myself) and I use root browser to convert the google messenger app to a system app, because I like it better than Samsung's sms anyway.
I'm wondering if there is an app I can install that will give me the text selection like iOS has? I've never liked the way android does text selection, so much harder to use.
Serious?
Looks like the wrong place i reported the thread for moving.
thanks, hope someone knows an app that can do this.
I know the sony xperias have this feature and it's been ported to newer sony android phones

I have recently purchased this phone only to realize it comes with those disgusting stock android emojis. I bought that kika keyboard app but the emojis still look the same when you actually press them. I searched around and heard of this thing called emoji switcher that only works for rooted devices so I rooted my device. But for some reason I can't get the SuperSU binary to update. When i downloaded emoji switcher it wouldn't load. What do I do from her. I apologize if that sounds like a jumbled up mess.
So, I have found a way to get IOS 12.1 Emojis on my Samsung Galaxy Note 9 without Root (through Wings Fonts) and it works really well in almost all apps, except for Snapchat.
Before the Note 9 I had a phone with a custom ROM and Magisk and I could just download the Magisk module with the IOS 12.1 Emojis and after I did that the Emojis also worked in Snapchat.
On the Note 9 on the other hand I had to download an App that downloads a Font that looks exactly the same as the Stock Samsung font, except that the Emojis are replaced.
But in Snapchat that doesn't change the Emojis, so in Snapchat I still see the Samsung Emojis. My guess is that this is because Snapchat is still using the Stock Samsung font.
So my question is if anyone knows if the is another way to get the IOS Emojis on One UI or if you could somehow replace the Emojis in the Stock Samsung Font (through ADB maybe?). Or if there is a way to somehow force Snapchat into using another font or something like that.
I would be really grateful if someone could help me with this problem as I mainly use Emojis in Snapchat.

Same issue with me.. This is my first android experience and I think that a jailbroken iphone is more customizable than an android phone. Whether rooted or not. I hate apple and I'm going to buy their new iphone max next September anyways and get rid of this Note9. Iphone with Cydia is just everything.
Did you end up finding a way?
