Sending a smily without making the message an mms - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have sent 2 MMS now without wanting to. I have come from a HTC One X which was able to send a smiley as part of an SMS but when I use the smileys on the standard Samsung keyboard they are pictures. Are there any SMS smileys on the phone I thought I had found some but now cant find any.

Try SwiftKey keyboard beta Google it that has smileys built in

For the standard Android smileys (not emojis that count as MMS) just click the menu button and select add smiley

SMS with smileys

Hi,
in my SE phone I have always been able to send smileys and small animations when sending by sms. In Trinity it is not possible. Does anyone knows how to send animations and smileys or is this an upgrade issue
These are probably EMS. A non-standard extension to SMS (before MMS).
Never seen a client for PocketPC.

There is a solution to sent/recieve SMS with smileys. Search for Palm messaging on this forum. Palm does understand the customer better than MS
You may want to try XSM by Imaginet
http://www.imaginet-software.com/index.aspx?p=xms
unfortunately it's not free, 9$US, and the program must be installed on both sides (sender & receiver)...or you can send it as an MMS to the other device if it doesn't support the program...
I have not used this software.. but it looks promising...
cheers

Smileys/Smilies on Palm Treo Pro

Indeed I am confused: How do I use smileys on my Treo Pro in an SMS (text message)? There are some on the phone, according to a folder on the phone, but do not know to use them...no pop up like on my old Palm Treo 680....and do not care to type in things like a colon followed by a closing parenthesis, to result in this:
Palm has dropped their own sms app in favor of the standard WM6 sms app. That does not support smileys. You could just do them by hand though .

Yep, too bad
You just have to type them in.
Send as MMS
You could send your texts as MMS and then you have the smileys. If you have an unlimited everything account then who cares? Although you might look like a douche to your recipients...
SMS vs. MMS (Others NOT receiving....)

I have tried the MMS route, as I rarely send texts except to my wife (and she knows what a geek--Etc.--I am). She never gets them...do not know if it is because she is on Verizon (on a Palm 755p) and I am on T-mobile (with 400 texts a month for $5). So....don't know why it is never getting through to her.....
quick tip
I also miss having the smiley button. I preferred the old palm sms over the microsoft sms, and I tried installing the old palm sms but found I was then not able to use MMS. So I am now using the microsoft sms and found a quick smiley trick. When typing a message, if you want to enter a smile, frown or wink....hit the Alt button then hit option semi-colin....it will bring up those 3 smileys as options. Hope this helps.

Can't you just use Smiley SMS?

ALT + Option button + semi-colon = Smilies

Thanks...now if that isn't a hidden trick for WinMo 6.1, I don't know what is.
Wonder how many people (other than you...and now me) know about that trick?
I want something more than Smiley SMS offers: Sorry!

Nope...from what I see, Smiley SMS only displays Smileys in your text message, and does not allow you to insert one.

[ISSUE][TW 4.3] Incomplete Emojis & Entering an Emoji Converts to MMS

In the 4.3 update, we got emojis in keyboard. Well it came along with some issues.
One issue is that Some Emojis are missing, okay that's tolerable.
Second issue which annoys me, is that when I enter an emoji in SMS, it converts it to MMS! Whereas I can send Emojis via SMS through Hangouts. (I'd have used hangouts as SMS app but it is still incomplete at this stage)
Also I remember that I could send Emojis from CM10 as SMS which I installed on my older device, Xperia ray.
Same issue here. Don't particularly want to pay for am mms everytime I use an emoji ?

SwiftKey emoji problem

Hi,
I've just installed the latest Swiftkey beta which has emoji support. The problem is that when you add a smiley face or something or warns you that it's sending it as an MMS ?!? Why's that ? I have to pay for MMS messages. The default samsung keyboard still manages to add them in as a standard SMS.
