SwiftKey emoji problem - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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.

[Q] Group text in GoSMS Pro

Hi all, I flashed my rom with GoldenEye recently (which is a great, fast rom with terrific support!), but since then, I can't send group texts with GoSMS Pro. It worked before on the stock rom and it works from within the stock messaging app, but not GoSMS. Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks... Josh
Facing the same issue. It worked fine on my s2 with gosms but now it sends it all desperate. I remember a setting somewhere that lets you keep messages together, have to dig through there for a solution.
Edit: spoke too soon. Settings>advanced>send options>group mms
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using xda premium
Hey josh, I am having the same issue - I am currently on the GoldenEye ROM too, and group messaging on GO SMS no longer works for me. The stock messaging app works, but I was wondering if there's a fix to the GO SMS app (I prefer this because of their Emoji's). Unless anyone knows a keyboard app that allows for emoji's too? (I am currently using the Google Keyboard)
Edit - With the method Goliath mentioned, when I try sending a group message, it says "converting to MMS" and then gets stuck on the sending action. After about a minute, it gives me an "unable to send message" error. When I try sending a group message with this option disabled, it sends SMS messages to each recipient individually. The main problem is that my attempted group messages don't go through.

Hey beerdroid, thanks for the advice. I installed the emoji for english words language pack but don't know how to access it or pull it up (in GO SMS there's a plus sign to access emojis, but I don't have anything like this in my Google keyboard)
Do you know how I can find where this is installed?

try this. if you've installed the emoji pack then go into your stock sms and select menu > settings. scroll down and see if there is a "display" section. if so, mine has boxes that can be checked for "Emoji support" as well as "Quick emojis button". with these selected, emojis are supported and a button is implemented on the keyboard.

Dang i don't think my ROM (GoldenEye) has the Emoji Support or Quick Emojis Button options - let me try to flash AOKP to see if that works. Thanks very much for your help!

[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 ?

Sending a smily without making the message an mms

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

Still missing some of the HTC features as it is.

[Q] Receiving Cyrillic sms

Hello guys,
Do you know what font (in system/fonts) is using the stock sms app for Nexus 4. I can't receive Cyrillic messages with any app neither stock nor popular 3rd party (on rooted stock, purity or slimkat). My previous phone was i9000 and had option for Unicode, but unfortunately Nexus seems to miss it. I read on Google that if you change the system font with other Cyrillic one will fix the problem.
Well, I've checked all the font and of course they all support Cyrillic. Even replaced them with fonts from i9000 GB Cyanogen Rom.. So the issue should be in the sms app .. The sad thing is for example when using hangouts app for messaging via internet, Cyrillic text is alright, but from network (as sms) everything is unreadable

Native email app Arabic font viewing issue 4.4.2

Hi all:
I have a GT-i 9500 updated to Kitkat 4.4.2, in Samsung naitve email app I have problem.
If I got an email the app doesn't show sender name if the sender name have Arabic font character, you can imagine how much this thing annoy me.
I tried to play with setting but nothing work.
I don't have problem viewing Arabic font in any other app, just in Samsung email app

Maybe try using another email app as alternative? No used arabic font before so no issue for me on the email app.
I just did that, I'm using now Blue Mail & I really love it so much it is much more useful than native app.
