There are two different type of screenshots. The screenshots don't have the same type of font. The most recent screenshot (Two of them) I took are those that I am showing the keyboard with the emojis on the Hangouts app. The other one was taken a long time ago but I can find the font file for you.

Specifically which one are you referring to?

Thank you so much for this, my GF uses an Iphone and I use Android, and I once sent the "dancing man" icon to her but showed up as a "dancing woman"... needless to say i had some explaining to do.. Thank you for saving me for anymore embarrassment...

I dont remember the exact name of the font, but try out "CK Sweetener Pack" which has the font I am using. The pack is an Aroma Flashable Zip so flash it in recovery. Let me know if you have issues.

Is there a way for this to work with Hangouts???

Aniket.t20 · May 1, 2014

emoji in notification bar

Does this also provide ios emoji in notification bar like when you get a notification from whatsapp?
because otherwise it might come as a empty box. Can anyone confirm?

I can confirm that this works well on whatsapp. No empty box. :good:

This mod should work with Hangouts. However I believe that if you tap the smiley icon on the text field of Hangouts you will get Google's emojis. To get the iOS emojis invoke the smiley screen via the keyboard.

Can you try updating your recovery? Also which recovery are you using?

Thanks. That works.

Great job! Not a huge fan of the M8 emojis, this mod has most emojis but is missing some like the flags. Not a problem for me just I'd let everyone know.

got it to work!

got it to work w/o root. use the app iFont Donate and just use the ttf file. works on hangouts, snapchat, my notes, instgram, my twitter timeline but for some reason it reverts back to the samsung emojis in the twitter compose box.
is there anyway you can just use the emojis and not the font? I've been using Roboto Light for some time and I feel like it better suits the 4.4 design. the font that comes w/ the ios emoji ttf files is ugly.

Missing Preview of Smileys

So from the link given above I downloaded the file under /system/fonts/AppleColorEmoji.ttf and flashed it via Philz touch recovery 6.25.0 and this is what it shows on my keyboard.Smileys Preview are missing for many but when i click on the question mark the smileys do show up in the message box .I deleted the applecoloremoji.ttf from /system/fonts on my phone,rebooted and i was able to see the default emojis that come with samsung keyboard.So anyone got any ideas why the smiley previews are missing on mine?I see a bunch of other files from the download link,would i need to get one of those as well?

Unfortunately no, as far as I know. If anyone here has a work-around for this, please share!
