I'm not sure if anyone has asked this but does someone have an emoji codec or something to view emoji on twitter and instagram? Fortunately there is emoji implemented in dark unicorn but it's only through texts.

you don't need emojis for twitter, twitter support japanese characters of all types included text emoji, i know this as docomo, softbank and kddi all there follow me on twitter and i seen their post e.g.
【6月27日（水）〜】auケータイ「K011」を順次発売します☆ (note the star)
as for instagram i don't know, i don't use my phone camera or camera software.
Well you know how there's an app for iPhones to view and use emoji on all apps on that phone, I was just wondering if there was one for android. The keyboards will let me use emoji for such apps but when other people use them, I am unable to view them on my phone from that app.

I used the Emoji Font Updater (root). search for it on the google play store. I seem to be not allowed to post links yet. it works to get emoji to show up in twicca (my twitter client).
the instructions are in the app but its pretty straight forward. just a sequence of buttons (backup font. download emoji font. install emoji font. reboot).

So what WP7 UI- like apps do you guys use?
Why do you use them and what are the pros and cons?
I've seen metro UI and launcher 7. And some messaging apps. None of them are up to my expectation even if they are great. But they are amazing.
So what are your thoughts?

I use Launcher 7, Messaging Metro Beta, and WP7Contacts. Launcher 7 and Messaging metro are my favorite because in my opinion, they are nearly perfect.
I use WP7Contacts because I like the simpleness of the WP7 contacts, but I think it could be better. For example, the Facebook integration doesn't work for me (it never logs in) and when I add a new contact and enter their phone number the number is lost if I leave that page without clicking save. I don't know if this is on purpose or what, but I have lost phone numbers several times because I didn't click save.
Lately I have been trying the WP7Contact Lite app because the developer is very responsive, replies to my questions, and updates the app frequently unlike the WP7Contacts developer. I will probably permanently switch to WP7Contact Lite eventually, but for now the only thing keeping me from doing that is the inability to edit contacts inside the app (it opens the stock contact editor when you click edit) and the fact that it list all of the phone numbers under the mobile heading.

I will try the WP7 contacts app now. The launchers are really limited though. I would prefer one that has very good functionality and is smooth

Exactly. It sucks to have stuff like that.

So far, I have only tested on Launcher 7. I would say, it is still not up to my expectation, as it doesn't have Live Title feature. So, I would prefer to get a real WP7 phone, if I really want to have Metro UI. Android is pretty difficult to mimic the look n feel of Metro UI.
None of them do WP7 justice.

Any.Do is a to-do list app with a WP7-like UI. I have used this for a while.

I dont know why everyone is saying launcher 7 isnt that great. The app does have live tiles and is very smooth for me. Right now I have 5 live tiles running (2 photo tiles, calendar tile, email tile and contacts tile, plus the fly in/out animations) and it still runs smooth. And I have it all themed up to look nice and sexy. lol. Thats one thing this launcher has over actual WP7. You can make the tiles anything you want.
I also use Metro Messaging Beta and it is almost identical to WP7 as far as look goes. Just donate to the dev and you can get a lot more features. Its worth it.
WP7lock is a nice WP7 like lockscreen. But use "No Lock" from the market along with it because the stock lockscreen likes to take over sometimes.
I've used the wp7lock before and loved it (wish it was updated) launcher 7 was always well but i could never "get into it" and the metro messaging beta "donate for notifications" pissed me off to no end. the user smartdev is coming out with an wp7 messaging app that looks really interesting!
im on axiom 4.0.3 ICS rom right now, love it. only thing i miss from my nexus is the black sms apk, can i use any old apk from the nexus or does someone need to make a new one for the razr?
love the black themed apps.
Have you searched around for any black oriented themes for go sms pro? That may help you with what your looking for.
Use Hancent, best messaging app I've ever used. The theme is so customizable, that you'll probably be able to duplicate your Nexus' style.
this can eaily be solved by handcent or go sms
I'd kill for the stock SMS app, black option, with Emoji and iPhone-style group MMS.
Dream, I know.
Problem with Handcent, for me, is it's kinda bloated and slow and ugly to be honest. They really need to streamline it and make it line up with the simple look of ICS.
I would definitely give go sms a shot because once you set it up the way you want it as far as colors and themes it's simply an incredible third party text messaging application

Just reboot into recovery (CWM/Bootstrap or Safestrap), flash and reboot and you're good to go!

Is it possible to use the Swiftkey keyboard and us Google voice to text at the same time. I like the Swiftkey word correction and keyboard style but I personally. Hate its voice to text
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda premium
not related to swiftkey and google voice, but swype with dragon go is pretty sweet.
Only solution I've found when using an alternative keyboard is to pull down the notification when in a text input area. You should see a keyboard icon and "Select Input Method" in the Notifications.
This only lets you select the Google Voice Typing for that one instance.
I don't understand why the alternative keyboards don't allow you to select the default voice input, but it is what it is...
There's gotta be a better way but I'm having the same problem too. I love swiftkey but hate its voice to text. I've been looking for this for a couple days and posted on Android Central a out it but nothing so far. I'll come back if I find something.
Has anyone found a fix to this? I would also like to know the solution. I enjoy SwiftKey's keyboard, however, I prefer the voice-to-text feature found on Android's default keyboard...
You may want to check out AI type Keyboard Plus (similar to Swiftkey keyboard) as it uses the ICS voice to text feature as default
Do you use that? And if so have you used swiftkey 3?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
Yes I use both and honestly I think the AI plus keyboard is just as good as Swiftkey. The one thing I really like about it is that the predictions bar works in almost every app, unlike Swiftkey, which only works ,at least for me, in certain apps.
There is a free version if you want to try it out
Cool I'm gonna try it out tonight. I live swiftkey but I want to use the vtt more and doing like theirs. Google definitely made theirs much better on ics.

Vote here and they will hopefully integrate voice typing from ICS/JB
Is there a current custom HTC stock SMS app? I actually dont mind the stock sms but I would really like to know a way to change the color scheme of the messaging bubbles, fonts, and/or backgrounds.
I've been running some of the 3rd party SMS apps (Go SMS Pro, Handcent, and etc.) I was even able to fix the profile picture sync issue with them, but they seem to run a little glitchy sometimes. Where as the stock sms performs great other then it being so plain.
Thanks in advance.
I agree that the 3rd party SMS apps aren't running smoothly at this time. I'm running the stock SMS but have SMS Popup installed which doesn't run smoothly either. I'm looking for alternatives to use, cause I like the Individual Notification option in the 3rd party apps. I've used Handcent and GOSMS, both ran decent but they both had there issues with working inconsistently.
If you go into settings>personalize>skin, you can change the skin, some of the skins have a blue sms theme some have a green sms. I know its not really what you are looking for but it is better than nothing.
I want it inverted black

I know a dev working on that very thing, he's told me its a real pain compared to the sense 2.1 mms, and that took him quite a while.
Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk
Until such time we can compile the apk's successfully it will be tough to make it to your liking. I do themes, and we can't yet get ICS apk's to compile after they've been edited. I'm sure there are devs working on this issue, but as of now there unthemeable.
A black background would be nice.

I am now currently using GoSms again, but I had to disable the notification / Quick response box. Now it runs smooth. So I'm guessing it's a Sense 4.0 issue. Apparently Sense, doesn't like notification boxes.

There is no actual Interface Change, it is mostly theming And app replacement.. the title is missleading , untrue and needs to be changed.

removing some stock apps, adding some google apps, theming some elements and labeling it as aosp style rom.
