6.0.1 Update - still not seeing new emoji? - Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is anyone else not seeing the Unicode 8.0 emoji after the update? I'm still getting the box with the x through it for some emoji on Twitter and in SMS with iPhone friends.

Same here.

are you using the Google Keyboard? I was using Swiftkey and thinking the same thing until I switched.

I think he means when other people use new emoji and being able to view them. As oppose to being able to type the new emoji.

This is correct. Unable to see certain emojis entirely.
As an aside, I do use Swiftkey and changed to Google Keyboard for a day or two after receiving 6.0.1, but missed Swiftkey enough that I switched back figuring their update with new emoji enabled will come soon. Fleksy released theirs yesterday.
Just weird that the update to the system font doesn't seem to have taken with my 6.0.1 update.

I think there's still emoji missing in Android compared to iOS. Like we don't have the different skin color options right?

New Gmail App is NICE!

I am seriously digging the new Gmail app. Very refreshing change from that boring POS old app.
I do wish I could turn of the conversation mode. Anyone figure out a way to do that? I haven't been able to do it.
i agree that overall its great, wish i could pinch to zoom in messages so i could see most or all of the email at once.
That's my only gripe. Can't see all of the email and when I try to swipe over to see more, it goes to the next email. Maybe a future update will make it better.

What changed? My memory might be bad but whats so different from the gmail that came with 4.0.1?
I'm running 4.0.3-238707 and seems to still look the initial ICS gmail app.

I think he's referring to the versions shipped with Gingerbread and prior.
Yeah it's a major improvement from the Gingerbread version.

[Q] Which keyboard to use?

I'm surprised the standard Galaxy Nexus / ICS doesn't have a new line / enter key.
Are there any keyboards that are very similar to the stock keyboard, but instead of a smiley key it has an enter button?
I really need to use new lines in SMS messages. :C
Thumb keyboard is what I use on my tablet because its similar to stocks method of word correction but is more customisable in its layouts. I use stock on my nexus though.
Asus TF101 ICS 4.0.3

when google fixes the lag on stock keyboard i will be using that. in the meantime i am using swiftkey x, which is pretty good, but it's autocorrect is horrible 90% of the time.

Well swiftkeyX learns from the way you type, so if you end up typing any different way, it'll try to "push" you in the direction it expects you to be typing. You get a more narrowly focused autocorrect that helps for your every day 100 character tweets and SMS, but hurts in your forum posts (or other long form typing).
I still always wonder why people still use "tap" keyboards when there are swipe versions
I've personally used Swype on my last 3 Android phones and i can't envision me using anything else. It's so simple, accurate and bloody quick.

i've use swipe on all my android phones too but i find the galaxy nexus a little big for it making the swiped word slower than a smaller phone. i still like it though since it works well as a normal keyboard too when you dont want to swipe

This.
I have used swype on my past few Android devices and was always SURE that it was 10x faster than any 'tap' keyboard could ever be. Upon the discovery of Swiftkey X however, I was proven very wrong. Swiftkey is incredible fast and accurate. Yes it needs optimization for the GNex but still, it's faster than anything out there at the minute.
There is allready a thread like this .... :
What keyboard you use?
Use search folx

Theres no way swift key is quicker than swype if you can type properly
Just downloaded Swype; missed it too much from my DINC days.

I wanted to say something to this effect earlier. I tried swiftkey before swype and they're like chalk and cheese to me. Swype seems so much better.
I use ICS themed swype from here: http://jbthemes.com/djdarkknight/daswypethemes/
Swype is the best
I really dig SwiftkeyX. Predictions improved a lot when I linked it to my facebook and gmail accounts. Never could get the hang of swype but maybe I should give it another try.
I'd like to try swype for gnex. So where do you "download" it? Its not on the market place. I have slide it, which is garbage. Could someone put a link up for swype for the nexus?
Thanks guys.

hey there, this should be the latest...
but what you'll need to do is visit the swype beta page and sign up, you'll need your username and password and enter it when the app opens, this'll then download the GN version onto your phone then install the apk...
Can anyone confirm this?? Sorry mate, I'm just a little paranoid installing some random apk not from one of the moderators...Please dont take offence. Thank you very much for posting it up. I've thanked your post.

It doesn't appear when you use the built in Samsung keyboard. If you install the stock Google Keyboard it shows up.

Updated to Oreo but Google messenger still has old ui

My wife has a standard pixel and prior to the Oreo update her message app ui looks like the first attachment.. however mine even after the the 8.0 still looks like the old ui on the newest apk.. anyone have any thoughts.
My interface is still the old style, must be a server side change or something. I have a play store Pixel Verizon sim OTA oreo.

Possible to get IOS Emoji for Android 10 / One UI 2 ?

(Firstly, sorry if this isn't the right place to ask this question I am new here)
Has anyone had any luck getting IOS Emoji's on their phone? I have an S20. I am looking to get the emoji's without root.
If you want to keep using the default Samsung keyboard, then it is not possible without root + emoji pack.
However, another option is to use a different messaging app that supports alternate emojis.
