Q: is there any way to change emoji without rooting? - Honor 8 Questions & Answers

So as the title says I just feel sick when I see thoose google emojis, really need to change them, please, tell me there is a way for this. And other question - maybe I can use adblocker without root aswell?

If it's just for texting try another app like Textra, you can select and download up to 4 different emoji styles. Hope this helps.

Ditto. I'd love to get the iphone emojis. Standard android ones look crap imo.

Have you looked at installing another keyboard like Kika or Emoji in the play store, there's plenty of them and going by the app screenshots there not the default google type either

I use Swype and uninstalled Honor and Google keyboards altogether.

There are many keyboards in the Play Store with different emojis.

I don't like SwiftKey (only 3 predictions and I think no 2 simultaneous languages supported) but it's probably the most popular.

[Q] Can Mini Apps be edited/changed?

Hello All,
Just a quick question... can the mini apps at the bottom be changed to use other apps? I called Sammy tech support and they said I'd have to check w/Google since it's built into the ICS OS. I find this odd because I've checked other tabs at Worst (Best) Buy and they didn't have this mini-app tray.
I want to use other apps in its place. I wonder why when you view the mini apps you'll see an "edit" icon, however, when you click on it, everything is greyed out so you cannot edit or switch-out the mini-apps.
Thanks!

I believe this is a TouchWiz feature, and my understanding is that you cannot use other apps. Only the ones provided by Samsung.

I don't have it in front of me, but I believe that lets you add and remove the existing quick apps. Also, it probably isn't out of the realm of possibility that someone could develop a quick app and it would appear, but I bet there isn't a whole bunch of people building these quick apps.

+1. I think your take on this is as accurate as it can get.
Give Apex launcher a try if you dislike touchwiz. I can't stand touchwiz.

Mini Apps is built into the status bar, not the launcher. it will always be there.
Hate it...i wish i could get rid of the miniapps, sometimes it pressed accidentally and bug my gaming time
If Olny some1 develope mini app for the notes that would be great for ppl who read and like to write quick notes, If Only....
install gmd gesturecontrol to hide the status bar
You wont press any mini apps accidently then. Also when you press edit you double click on a mini app to add/remove it.
You can remove them, they annoyed me so I got rid by following the instructions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1692173
Obviously make a back-up before deleting the suggested files if you feel you may want thm back at some point (not that I did )!

Emoji

Hey guys just curious how miui can display and send emoji (except view iPhone 4s emojis) and similar OS like Shendu cannot. I realize they are all also based on Cyanogenmod7. Any way to extract the code etc. And use it? I've used the font, not the same lol

You can send emojis and view them through the SMS app. Furthermore, emojis show up in apps such as twitter and instagram. If you want to put them yourself in these apps, emoji keyboard, muliti leng keyboard and go keyboard can do this.

I misunderstood you, but thanks for the info. I was wondering more along the lines of if there was an option to enable emojis were built in to MIUI somehow; like in the default Android keyboard or something.
I haven't tried sending or viewing emojis very often so I really wouldn't know if they work only on MIUI roms or not, sorry bud!

They are built in. They are built into the SMS app. You only need the either keyboards to insert emoji into apps. My question was how can miui view them so that we can apply It to other cm7 roms. Sorry if I didn't explain it correctly!

VZW GS3 and Emoji

Alright well i just decided to root my phone and unlock the boot loader as well as loading liquidsmooths 4.1.2 ROM on here.. now my question is. how am i supposed to send emoji? like i can see emoji now but i see no option to send them.. that kind of defeats the whole purpose am i right?
also is there a way to change it from displaying Jellybean emoji to IOS 6 native emoji? i kind of prefer the look of those.
last question.. this is off topic but i'd like to change my boot loader image from liquid smooths back to the annoying Verizon LTE one, does anyone have the flashable zip for that?

hit the menu key and click "insert emoji" and then tap the order of the emoji you want and then hit the button at the bottom of the emoji window (should be OK or Send or something like that)
as far as the other 2 questions go, not sure about the native ios6 emoji as i don't really care cuz i only have 1 friend that uses emoji so i never paid too close attention, in my incredible 2 flashing days, devs had to cook native emoji support into it by modifying files...and shouldn't rom toolbox or that one app that has different boot images have that on there?

I know that there are some custom keyboards from the play store that you can install that have that option. Like Go keyboard.

Gboard GIF issue

When using the google gboard, i cannot use the gif portion of the keyboard. It is crossed out. I noticed using hangouts will enable the gif icon. Gboard isnt supported by the samsung stock messenger? Is there anything i can do to get the gif's to work?
Could try something like Go SMS or any other replacement apps. I noticed it doesn't work same as you.
Thats a bummer. I like the google keyboard. I can always use the stock Samsung one. Wonder why google set these limits in the 1st place.

If you click on it, it says the samsung messenger app isn't supported. Tells me there is some code samsung hasn't added to allow it to work. Probably because they'd prefer you use their keyboard. I hate the samsung keyboard so I'll just live without it.
Tried swift keyboard and hate some of the layout and features. Need to see what I can change.
Textra sms has built in gifs. And a whole bunch of amazing features. Give it a try if you still looking

Can confirm...Textra supports GIF and works beautifully with the built-in GBoard functionality.

what are the best apps on f-droid to get? (with black themes)

I'm looking for black themed apps specifically for like Gmail. I've come across in GB insta YouTube vanced and even face Slim. Those have been great, still looking for a decent email application with a black theme. If anyone knows the best apps to get on f-droid share them here.
I'm interested to see who considers what app to be good and why. Also there was a YouTube alternative app that allowed downloading app videos what was that app called? I'm sure someone on here will know.

I think the YouTube you're thinking of is called OG YouTube.
As for black email clients, I've been using the Samsung one. It's a little different to get used to but not bad.
Bromite, open source Chromium without Google's crap, if you care about that
Newpipe, very lightweight YouTube client with downloads and dark mode.

Check out YouTube Vanced - it's the regular YouTube client but with all the ads removed, has black mode, background play, and a lot more features! It's basically the way YouTube should have been designed in the first place!

i second that. youtube vanced all the way. been using it since my s8+. can't be any happier
even though download doesn't actually work for me. never seen the option even
so i use snaptube along with it
For email im using TypeApp which has a dark theme and fairly customizeable appearance and can support multiple email accounts. Its not on f-droid however so if you dont have/want to use google play store you may be able to find the APK for it online.
If you use the hex theme creator it sets gmail background to whatever you themed background colour to.

Thanks for the suggestion, how does the application work? I tried to make it work but am not sure how to get it to work. Is it like substratum?

If you personalise, setup the colours and settings you want. Then at the bottom build theme. Once that has finished, go to theme store and apply the hex theme.
Gmail, Google Photos, Play store and some others will theme.
The only issue I have found is multiple accounts in gmail I have to select the account swipe out of the app and back in every time I change account.

Interesting, I'll have a thorough look at the app hopefully it's as simple as you make it out to be. Cuz it comes packaged with two apps one being the theme selection store and then one of your own personal customisation. Also do you have to reapply the themes after every boot up? Or after every update do you have to uninstall each overlays like substratum if you wish to update?

Forget to mention that you need to turn on night mode in the hex app.
No the theme stays there all the time, when you make changes though, it seems that you have to apply the default theme then apply hex theme again.
