any way to change emoji styles? SOLVED!!! - Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers

Some apps like mood messenger let you change how the emoji looks inside the app. But the note 8 default emojis show up everywhere else. I don't really like some of them, particularly the roll eyes emoji. It look looks a smirk haha
Is there a way to change it? Say to iOS styles or even the old Android blobs?
Update:
This one works!!! No Root

Only way I know is if we get ROOT. Also the apps on the playstore require root also.

Aww...didn't want to root anymore..

I use nextSMS (hancent) and it has very nice emojis, even animated emojis. Been using it for years and wouldn't even think about using another messaging app. Best feature is the popup notification so you can reply from the lock screen.

you should try Mood messenger. It does all you mentioned and even has floating head notifications. Animated emojis, and great customization for chats balloons and colors.
The emojis look fine in mood, it lets you choose what type but for other apps like Line Messaging, Viber, etc....it uses the defult Note 8 emojis...

Textra is a nice alternate messaging app. It has the ability to change the emoji style along with a lot of other customizations.

Ok guys, this one works!!! No Root needed!!

; When you install the first link, go to description, and go to the link for version 7.0 and up. You need to install that as well. So basically, you install 4 things, go to settings, change font, and that's it.
I've tried it on two note 8s, both work fine. Non rooted units. Both latest os versions

Hmmm... The two notes I've tried are stock. Philippines.
Did you go to stratum, choose the sans font, and press the circle at the bottom right to install the font in stratum. You have to install the font inside the first app you downloaded...

Ok..I can't get the pics to work...or even to show a link...what's wrong w this..tsk

Anyways, I'm just wondering if no one else got this to work. My phone and my friend's still working well.
I'm actually worried if the next OS update will put the emojis back lol

this worked great! any way to get stock Android Oreo emoji tho? ahah

haha glad it worked for someone else...took me a long time to find a solution that works...think it'll still be ok when we get oreo?

problem
I flashed zip file with emojis with twrp and now everything is changed (I can even use those which came with Oreo even I'm on MM) only smilies stay unchanged (still htc style). Can someone guide me how to make them Oreo-styled too?

Have you installed Substratum, paid for Sungstratum (Andromeda if you are on 8.0), enabled USB-Debugging, enabled ADB on your phone, given Substratum and Sungstratum/Andromeda access, paid for the Status Bar icon for Samsung + extra app / substratum addon, enabled the theme, scrolled down to font and chosen the iOS emoji option, built and enabled it and then gone into settings where you enabled this as a font and restarted your phone?
Make sure you have followed all these otherwise it will not work.

It works. The fonts that is. Didn't have to use ADB command. Using a few Substratum themes inc Wings

I'm so damn lucky. I changed the Emojis to IOS 11 a while back with a custom overlay and I updated to Pie forgetting the overlay was there and to my surprise the Emojis are still IOS.
Idk what kinda bull**** is this but I'm not complaining ?
Google, F*** you for blocking overlays in Pie.

Sliding Emoji Keyboard

From the creators of Sliding Messaging Pro (@klinkdawg24 and I), we wanted to announce our newest project for you guys today! Sliding Emoji Keyboard!
Play Store description:
PLEASE READ:
--- If you don't read it, it will be very obvious to us and we WILL NOT be willing to help you. You have been warned. ---
This is a standalone keyboard that we have created with our app Sliding Messaging Pro. It is baked into that app, so there is no need to download here if you are only using it for that app, but we wanted to add it for anyone to use, even if you don't support us through that app.
This keyboard only supports Google's new Google+ emojis, the ones in their hangouts app.
NOTE: This app will NOT actually show the emojis in the text box or on the device unless your system supports them! Please understand this! We have no way to add support for that from this app. If you would like to get that working, you will have to have a rooted phone and change the system font to one that supports Google's emojis.
Even though it doesn't show them correctly in the text boxes, when you send the message/tweet/email or whatever you are using it for, they will show up correctly, again as long as the app supports Google's new emojis. The recipient will receive them fine as well, as long as their phone has emoji support. They will be received fine on any iOS devices and any messaging app for Android that supports them. Almost all do by now.
To actually see the emojis in the app, you will have to install an app that supports them. Examples of this would be: Sliding Messaging Pro, WhatsApp, Hangouts, and many more, you will have to find out yourself if the app you want to use our keyboard with supports them.
--- How to Enable/Use ---
To enable the "Sliding Emoji Keyboard", go to Setting -> Language & Keyboard, then check the "Sliding Emoji Keyboard" to enable it.
To use "Sliding Emoji Keyboard", you need to change the input method:
- In Android 2.3 and below, select "Sliding Emoji Keyboard" from the dialog that comes up after long pressing on any text box.
- In Android 4.0 and above, drag down the notification try when a text box is selected, then select "Sliding Emoji Keyboard" after switching the input method.
--- REMEMBER ---
As I said above, you won't be able to see all the emojis on the device! Sometimes they will show up as a blank space and usually they will show up as aiona black and white image of the selected emoji. THIS IS FINE. THEY WILL SEND CORRECTLY to all your friends that have support for them (again, iOS users and any Android messaging apps that have the emojis in them).
Please don't just rate it one star because you can't see the images. I have explained it to you, so there are really no excuses for this.
Thank you for reading, and if you didn't, remember that we will not be very willing to help or support you.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Screenshots coming in the next post! Play store link will be coming soon, once the app is actually up on the store.
We think that it turned out very well. Looks great and supports Google's new emojis.
Some notes for Sliding Messaging Pro users:
- this app is baked right into Sliding Messaging, so you don't have to buy the keyboard to use it with our app, a little extra bonus for ya
- This keyboard is available anywhere in the system though if you do buy it, so if you want to use it with other apps, twitter, email, ect. you will have to buy it.
- We did it a little differently in Sliding Messaging to increase funtionality. It is the same concept here, just isn't able to actually display the emojis on the edittexts, where as it is able to do this in sliding messaging. So just know this, as it is explained in the description.
Hope you guys like our work! It should be up soon!
Here is the play store link! https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.klinker.android.emoji_keyboard

There are two different type of screenshots. The screenshots don't have the same type of font. The most recent screenshot (Two of them) I took are those that I am showing the keyboard with the emojis on the Hangouts app. The other one was taken a long time ago but I can find the font file for you.
Specifically which one are you referring to?
Thank you so much for this, my GF uses an Iphone and I use Android, and I once sent the "dancing man" icon to her but showed up as a "dancing woman"... needless to say i had some explaining to do.. Thank you for saving me for anymore embarrassment...

Is there a way for this to work with Hangouts???
emoji in notification bar
Does this also provide ios emoji in notification bar like when you get a notification from whatsapp?
because otherwise it might come as a empty box. Can anyone confirm?

This mod should work with Hangouts. However I believe that if you tap the smiley icon on the text field of Hangouts you will get Google's emojis. To get the iOS emojis invoke the smiley screen via the keyboard.

Great job! Not a huge fan of the M8 emojis, this mod has most emojis but is missing some like the flags. Not a problem for me just I'd let everyone know.

got it to work w/o root. use the app iFont Donate and just use the ttf file. works on hangouts, snapchat, my notes, instgram, my twitter timeline but for some reason it reverts back to the samsung emojis in the twitter compose box.
is there anyway you can just use the emojis and not the font? I've been using Roboto Light for some time and I feel like it better suits the 4.4 design. the font that comes w/ the ios emoji ttf files is ugly.
Missing Preview of Smileys
So from the link given above I downloaded the file under /system/fonts/AppleColorEmoji.ttf and flashed it via Philz touch recovery 6.25.0 and this is what it shows on my keyboard.Smileys Preview are missing for many but when i click on the question mark the smileys do show up in the message box .I deleted the applecoloremoji.ttf from /system/fonts on my phone,rebooted and i was able to see the default emojis that come with samsung keyboard.So anyone got any ideas why the smiley previews are missing on mine?I see a bunch of other files from the download link,would i need to get one of those as well?

Change Emoji Type

Is there a way to change the emoji type? I'm not a fan of the standard weird shaped face one.
I've only had the phone a week so not looking to root yet, especially as is work phone. I usually just flash an emoji pack or LOS ROM to fix but obviously out of the question at the moment.
I have tried the app huawei theme and downloaded the Oreo-emoji and got it to work on my p10 only when using the English language
You can try to make an own theme with the Theme Maker from Play Store. You can add fonts, so it should be possible to add an emoji font.
If this won't work you need root for replacing the emoji font.
Thanks both will look into. @berka38 I have searched "oreo" ion the "themes" app on phone but nothing coming up, do I just search in there?
Download the huawei theme app from play store and in there u can choose to download emoji and themes and things

Once your emoji font has been set, you can change your theme to one of your choice, that does not contain another font, of course. ?

To see all the emojis, you can try restarting your device, but if that doesn't work, you will need to clear your keyboard's data.
Also, depending on the keyboard you're using, it might not support all the new emojis yet.

Any help how to get these, p.s I am using Google Keyboard

Multi window Pop-up question

Hi,
The main thing I love the Galaxy Notes is the multi-window feature. Especially the pop-up window option.
I've had a chance to try out the Note 8. Apparently the pop-up multi-window feature give you a small pop-up window with every item in the app still being very large like it was full screen (large font, large buttons, ... the same thing Windows computers do when you make an app smaller). My old Note 3 gives you a pop-up window which actually make every aspect of the app look smaller. I hope I'm making myself clear.
Is there a way to get that Note 3 scaling effect on the pop-up multi-window feature of the Note 8?
This is what a pop-up on the Note 3 looks like:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
This is what it looks like on the Note 8:
Thanks!
I think what you're looking for is in Settings / advanced options / multiwindow.

I know the Note 8 has the option for multiwindow, but I want to know if there's an app or xposed module or whatever available to scale down the pop-up windows like it was on the Note 3.

that's not what he means.
on old Samsung phones that function would shrink the window as-is, so the app would still draw as if it's fullscreen while it's actually shrunken down to a quarter of its normal size.
this would result in smaller buttons and text.
on newer Samsung phones the app is informed that the resolution has changed, allowing it to adjust.
this can cause apps to reload when resizing them, and buttons and text don't shrink.
unfortunately there doesn't seem to be a way to revert to the old behavior.

What app have you found that doesn't re-size? Whatsapp, for example, shrinks nicely. Messages, all shrinks.. The screenshot you posted of the Note 8 is not what my phone looks like.

Could you maybe post a screenshot of how it looks on your Note 8?
Here... Not the best, but you can see Google drive has resized.
I've edited your screenshot. Look at the red box.
If you maximize that app to full screen, is the stuff in the red box bigger or the same size?
Ok, correct. That bit doesn't change. The rest does, the plus button and the other text, but not the top.

That's what I mean. And if you open up a window and scale it down to the smallest size possible, those buttons and text can really get in your way (depending on the app).
On the Note 3 those buttons actually scale down as well.
Fingers crossed for an update then! I like the feature but I can understand why it's annoying, but it's not bothering me too much.

I highly doubt this will get updated. It's been like that in all the latest Galaxy phones. It's Android's implementation of multi-window. It saves Samsung a lot of time and money not having to code that stuff themself.
So if the community doesn't come up with some kind of mod, this won't change.
That's a shame then. The apps I like to use in popup do work nicely, I love having the notes pop up floating so I can just quickly use it during the day.
Is there an app or mod to allow all the apps to the multi-window view? Because out of the box not all the apps are supported ...

Don't need an app like you did with LL & MM, there's a setting in Developer Options now but like in the past, doesn't mean all unsupported apps will work/resize fine when forced.

Wallpaper - will randomly change

Anyone else experience this?
I have settings off but over the last few months I have noticed the wallpaper change of it own accord ..
On 7.0
Also what is giving me the ****s it is like a Win10 situation where it is Huawei pushing a pic from the net to me.. (or only other option would be quickpic app as I use this to set the wallpaper).
I just checked on the change this morning and the pic is not actually sitting in my gallery. And I hadn't seen this picture before.. it's not in the standard Huawei pic set..thus the theory of it being pushed from the net..
I am on stock rom..
Just wondering if anyone else is experiencing this?

And maybe it has something to do with theme.. but there are no "theme settings' in EMU 5.0.1..
Well as per my screen shot there is Huawei's setup..
But I actually use Apex..
So, as this same setup has been on my phone's for the last 4+ years.. (I know..why change a good thing)..
To have wall papers turn up (as said very much like Win10 does on lock screen).. but this is not my lock screen. This is main wall paper..
Thing is.. only ever so often.. only say once a month..
My feeling is they are slipping through either Apex.. or EMU..as showed.. I have settings shut down for changes..
Don't even worry about the lockscreen ones..they are not the owns turning up..

Thanks for reply..
And maybe it has something to do with theme.. but there are no "theme settings' in EMU 5.0.1..

What about Themes built-in application?! - this is exactly for setting the themes, haven't you seen that and did you try to use it?
I hope, you didn't think it was a bloatware and (because you have a root), you just deleted that app before finding first what it is and why you need it.
Besides you can directly set up any picture or photo as your wallpaper.
Àlso, and again, did you look into the MagazineUnlock folder on the Internal mem (no root needed), what pictures do you see there, do they correspond to your random wallpapers?
I know there are no proper help/instructions for EMUI but you can try to get familiar with its setings and built in apps and features.
If you are not using stock ROM then you will get better help if you ask in the corresponding custom ROM thread. Also if you are using special launchers or so, then it might be a how-to question for that launcher or your own themes/wallpapers app, this is not EJUI 5.01 fault
One more tip: if by flashing back and forth various ROMs, you came to the point that you are mising some apps, particularly Themes app (maybe also Calendar, etc), then you need to go back and properly install stock ROM. This was a known case that people, after manually flashing ROMs (immproperlly or incompletely) lost some built in apps and/or got mess. In some casese it was enough to do Factory reset with wiping Internao memory (you can't with root or TWRP).
Yes,
Understand the theme app..have used it and may freeze it as I have a feeling it's over riding the "off' on change as per screen shot before..
So.. again..
NO.. the pictures that appear are not part of that directory..
Yes.. I can..and I do use quickpic to set my own home screen wallpaper..
Stock rom..nothing deleted..( I think you can see via my post account I kinda know what I am doing a tad..as been flashing tons of different devices over the years)..
So maybe theme app is pushing pictures to the phone with out my permission and wants..
Actually happened this afternoon..
Thus a freeze might be good..
Thanks for the input.. got to be happening to someone else..I can't be the only one.
Edit:. Actually just a thought, I just remembered I was forced to download the Microsoft launcher for some reason.. even through it is not what I use..I wonder if this has a hook in.. anyway, just deleted it .. will see if this is the culprit..
