HTC One M8 :: Double Texts With Emojis After 4.4.3 Update
Sep 4, 2014
After updating Android to 4.4.3 on ATT, when I send out a text with an emoji the text sends with the emoji and then another sends without an emoji directly after it. For example if I sent out a text that said: The HTC is cool.Texts would send saying:
The HTC is cool
AND:
The HTC is cool
This is the stock HTC Messaging app, using the swiftkey pro keyboard. None of this happened on 4.4.2. I also should mention that I am using the ART developer runtime, but I don't see that making a difference.
So I have this increasingly annoying issue with the emojis on my phone (Samsung Galaxy S6). I am able to use and see them in every app except messaging. I send emojis in a text, I can see them and so can the person receiving them. However, when they send emojis to me, I cannot see them, it just comes up as '??'. I have changed the input mode and tried all 3 modes (GSM alphabet, unicode and automatic) but none of them work. My Android version is 5.1.1 ....
When I installed my BB Desktop Manager and first plugged in my Bold 9700, it asked if I would like to update various features on my phone, to which I accepted. The update froze- I can't remember quite at which stage but I recall it was at the end stages and the stage at which it froze started with JVM. After waiting an hour or so, I disconnected my Blackberry, not knowing what to do. The screen remained black and the red light started blinking.I looked up fixes for the problem and they seemed simple- one used JL_Cmdr to do a full wipe- but I am using Windows 7 and it isn't compatible. I get a brief command prompt screen for a half second before it closes.
The second fix involved using the command prompt to get to the Loader in the AppLoader file- but I ran into another problem- when trying to open Loader.exe, I got a "The Application Loader requires the Blackberry Device Manager to be installed." Then looking up THAT fix, I downloaded a new OS and redownloaded the Desktop Manager, but am getting the same error.
I noticed that after the update, I keep seeing these unusual double headed arrows under the signal strength bars. (Under the "3.5G"). Last time, it used to be just 2 single headed arrows, what exactly does this mean?
Emojis not showing up?My main use case here is that when my girlfriend texts me, if she uses any emojis in the message, they come up as question marks. But my ones come up correctly.
I know there's probably a thread about this, but I'm too lazy to look for that, but are there any good apps that have emojis (with all the new iOS 6 emojis too). I used to have Chomp SMS, but for some reason it won't send messages.
There are ways to have ios emoji on android without rooting. I came across one but was late since for some annoying reason google removed the app. It's called Emoji Fonts for FlipFont 3. You can look up the youtube video "change emoji character without root."
I have a HTC one and after what I assume was a whole system update (around 2+ weeks ago) it gave me the emojis/emoticons on the standard keyboard instead of just the smileys. Usually I have a character limit of 160 on the normal text messages but as soon as I add an emoji it cuts it to 70.
I've read somewhere that adding an emoji means all characters double, cutting it nearly in half, but the thing is, it was only a couple days ago that it started cutting down to 70. I was putting emojis in and it was only taking one character, and not changing the overall character limit.
I was wondering whether there was the possibility to change the sms formatting so emojis will only take one character and not change the overall count?
How to use the new Emojis which "came out" with 6.0.1? checked Google keyboard but it contained only old emoticons.whats the procedure for enabling the latest emojis
I just got an S5 and don't see how the emojis that are stock on the phone in the message app are available on the keyboard on facebook or instagram. am I missing something?
Is there anyway to get the keyboard to show emojis when typing. I.e. when you type smile, you should see a smile emoji to enter, without going into you emoji part of the keyboard.
I cant see the smiley icon for my emoji. Even when I press and hold the microphone icon the icon for the emoji is not there. I tried to use my keyboard everywhere like my note and other apps. Still cant see my emoji icons.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S5 from Verizon. My girlfriend has an iPhone. I use the Samsung Stock Messaging App. I can see the emojis she sends, but when I try to send one, she can't receive any of the message. What can I do?
I can't seem to send texts to only 3 of my contacts since the 2.3 update. Everytime I try one of the numbers, the Messaging Force Closes. I din't understand why it's only 3 of my contacts that do this.
Since I installed the new Anna updates today through OVI Suite I have not been able to send any texts. They stay in my outbox and keeps updating with 'resend at ......' I have gone back and restored factory settings bit no joy.
Yesterday i updated my s6 to lolipop 5.1.1 and ever since then i cannot send text messages i can recieve them but i cannot send texts i am with rogers...
I have the D1, I can receive text messages just fine from my sisters phone, but not my friends phone, they both receive my text just fine. My friend said he had recently got an update, if there was an update, what is the current build so I can verify mine, this issue has been going on for 1 to 2 weeks now. I use the stock text app as well as handcent. my friend uses only the stop app. any ideas as it is getting really irritating
After doing the 313 update my bb is now working fine with receiving text messages on time..now the problem i have is..my bb is not receiving mms picture texts.
As soon as my phone had installed the latest update, i lost the ability to send or receive text messages. The only time I can send or receive is if i am on a phone call. As soon as the call is done, my text messaging is non-functional. I have no issues with calls/internet browsing/apps...just text messaging.
Furthermore, i do not know if this a phone issue or an AT&T issue.
Has anybody else noticed that the Razr Maxx wont separate the texts into multiple texts if you go over 160? I didnt notice it until I did it the other night, and got a sending error. I could have sworn in the past there was an option for this.
My iPhone won't let me send texts to someone who used to have an iPhone but doesn't anymore. I can receive texts from them but can't send them texts. Says its an invalid number.
I haqve just moved to Tenerife and got a movistar sim. I can receive calls and texts but cant send texts. I have tried to resend the service books but it wont allow me saying "your device had a problem connecting to the server". When i try send a text it says "requested facility not implented". What do I do?
