Hello guys,

quick question here.

I updated last night my sprint galaxy s4

but now I don't see the google emojis on the hangout app

I only see the samsung emojis :confused:

Thank you. !

EDIT:
a user said this:

Samsung baked a custom hangouts in the rom to show their emoji instead.

Not exactly sure how that happened. My emoji button is attached to the text input bar on the left with location and photo on the right. There was an update released in the past few days. Tried uninstalling updates and reinstalling it?

Is there a way to go back to the hangout style of emojis? I dont like the samsung looking icons, rather have the stock hangouts.

today I checked the hangouts app and it is showing the stock emojis :)
I am not sure how it happened but it is back.
Although when they display on the text field it shows the samsung ones :/

Exactly, I dont like that, I see the stock ones since I use Swiftkey. But when I enter them in or anyone else on the chat enters a emoji it shows as the samsung one. EERRRR :eek:

As long as you're stock, there's nothing you can do. It goes beyond just the hangouts app. As if they built it into their framework or something. Any emoji displayed on the phone at all will be displayed as the samsung version. I could go into more detail but, meh...
