Patch: Stock emoji keyboard with colors
Update: experimental compatibility with SFOS 4
This patch adds support for color emojis, skin tone variations, and different emoji styles to the stock emoji keyboard layout. Recently used emojis are available in the suggestions row for quick use.
Emoji sets have to be installed manually. Please follow the instructions in the Whisperfish wiki.
Note: remove the improved stock emojis patch before installing.
Known issues with SFOS 4:
- the list of recently used emojis cannot be scrolled (system bug affecting all keyboards)
- the settings page sometimes hangs or lags (I suspect this to be related to the scrolling bug)
- skin tone variations sometimes fail to show up in the selection popup (it shows text instead)
