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.

Hi, i've installed the patch via patchmanager. It won't find the twemoji installation (which works properly with whisperfish). Sailfish 4.4.0.72

Hi, same problem
Solution:
The release version number seems hardcode.
So you need put the emoji in those folder
/home/defaultuser/.local/share/sailor-emoji/openmoji/13.0.0
/home/defaultuser/.local/share/sailor-emoji/twemoji/13.0.1
for whatsapp not test but seem release - 2.20.206.24
You not need to have this release of the emoji, but patch look in those folder

I have a problem. The emojis on the keyboard are not always visible. Sometimes only the recently used emojis are there and the rest of the keyboard is blank. Is there any help?

Yes, that happens... Sometimes, switching to another keyboard and then switching back to the emoji keyboard fixes this. You can also try switching pages inside the emoji keyboard.

No, switching between the keyboard or switching pages don't solve this. Mostly only a phone restart, sometimes a lipstick restart or reinstall patch again, brings the emojis back.
Unfortunately I can't find a pattern from when the emojis disappear. It works, and next time using the keyboard, they are gone.
Can I find any log or error messages anywhere?

Reinstalling the patch should never be necessary... Do you have any patches installed that modify the "stock" emoji keyboard as well? Maybe there are some conflicts I don't know of.
I assume error messages should appear in the system logs. Try running `journalctl` and search for `QML`.

Emoji sets must be installed to `/home/defaultuser/.local/share/sailor-emoji/` (or `/home/nemo/...`). The folder `.local` is hidden by default. In File Browser, you can tap on the page header and select "show hidden files" to find it.
The OpenMoji emoji set comes as a `zip` archive. You have to uncompress the files in this archive to `~/.local/share/sailor-emoji/openmoji/13.1.0`.

Are you sure the files are at `~/.local/share/sailor-emoji/twemoji/13.0.1/<...>.svg`? If so, try switching back and forth between keyboards and then check the settings again. Make sure to select twemoji in the list. If it still does not work, try restarting the phone. Hope this helps :).
