Emoji smileys with stock messaging app?

**MannyZ28** · 07-24-2012, 09:17 PM

Is there a way to do this without having to use go SMS or hand cent?

u can get an app called Emoji Codec, type a message on that app including emoji and it copies that to ur clipbobrd then u can paste it. its a lot of hasstle though

So that how it works... I never could figure it out. But, then again, I've been using Handcent for years and never really tried too hard because I'm using their plugin.

does the handcent emoji only work if the other person uses handcent? i use go sms which has a plugin but no1 i know uses it lol

emoji codec is good for annoying iphone users on forums lol

Well this one girl I was going out with had an iphone and i got tired of seen little boxes in messages from her. Back then I had the gs2 and was using hand cent. I finally figured out that the emoji plug in would let me see her smilies. Those boxes I was seeing were mostly hearts and kissy lips. If I would have seen those earlier things may now be different between me and her... Aw well. Damn she was hot too!

lmao :-) well i have a feelin emoji codec makes the phone recognise those wee black squares but only shows the emoji in black+white

Handcent let's you send and see emojis. You just have to download the plug in. If you're on different carriers it may not work as well in terms of sending. But generally it works fine.

**MannyZ28** · 07-25-2012, 03:18 PM

I know, that was my setup before and that's how I landed up seeing the hearts and kissy lips, lol. Just want to keep the stock app on this phone.

The Handcent SMS emoji plugin allows me to send and receive emojis to and from my girlfriend's iPhone 4. We're both on Verizon, but I don't think it's carrier-specific.

i think there should be some more explicit emoji just so that us dumb guys get the message

Don't know about the simpsons, but I've always heard it as "if ifs and buts were candies and nuts, then we'd all have a merry christmas"

The stock messaging app kinda blows in my opinion and GOSms pro has been awesome so far. Takes some tweaking but can be awesome. The windows phone 7 skin looks great on this phone. Emojis work fine between it and I phones as well

**dopestar** · 08-08-2012, 12:25 PM

I don't understand why the stock messaging app doesn't allow you to send the emojis but your able to see receive them android style.. I am using jellybean and I noticed I am getting emojis but they are the droid versions. The puzzling thing is that the stock messaging app doesn't allow you to send them but ur able to receive them... Also why doesn't the stockk messaging app know how to properly use group SMS? I am forced to use a 3rd party -handscent & group plugin from handscent to properly use the group sms. For folks that dont know what i mean reference iOS group SMS or 3rd Parties.

**funkylogik** · 08-08-2012, 12:37 PM

the android things are more smileys:

etc than emoji. think emoji are more complex and use chinese symbols or something

**dopestar** · 08-08-2012, 12:45 PM

when ip users send emojis over to me via txt message I am able to see them (through stock message app) but they are android version of it. I am not refering to the basic smileys . For an example the whale , strawberry, lipstick . These I get on the stock but I am not able to send them or have an option. So i guess 3rd party apps is the only thing to use even after Jellybean????

**funkylogik** · 08-08-2012, 01:14 PM

i honestly wouldnt know mate. ive used Go Sms for a long time and i only know a couple of iphone users lol (theyr nowhere near as big here as in the US) really like Go Sms coz if the other person uses it, u can draw pictures, use handwriting etc + send it as a normal sms
