[Q] Chinese characters instead of Emoji used? - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

ok I know my problem is kinda weird since I've searched everywhere for a solution but couldn't find any thus far. (though my everywhere is limited to Xda and some other forums)
so my problem is that my note 3 kitkat 4.4.2 is able to display almost all emojis used and show their own Samsung made emoji..
however, every once in a while some of these are replaced by a Chinese character, this issue is visible in BBM broadcasts, Twitter and Path.
I've tried using snapchat, when I add a "story" I can view whatever I wrote in caption in the title, so when I use the emojis as a caption they always appear as Chinese Characters in the title
how do I get rid of this annoying problem?

hopefully someone has the same issue and solved it

I forgot to add that I bought the phone from Malaysia and it's N-9005

[Q] Camera in whatsapp

I don't know if it belongs here but the 'problem' concists on an Samsung Galaxy S4 i9505.
My wife and I both have a Galaxy S4 i9505. Since recently i discovered that with the update on whatsapp that I can activate the camera on the bottom of the screen next tot the little microphone. Instead of going to the upper right corner and choose the camera app. My wife an I both use Whatsapp2date and have the latest update for the i9505 installed.
However I have the camera function but she hasn't. She had it but it disappeared. And I can't seem to find the option to activate that. Or even find it. Is it just me or what? I would like to add a screenshot but not (yet) possible. srry

Update on whatsapp camera
Today at 17:00 made picture while using WatsApp camera on keyboard. after 3 hours the camera was gone. Done nothing strange or installed anything.
Another update,
I probably found a what seems to be an explanation. In version 2.11.148 the camera app exists. In version 2.11.150 it disappeared. Just need to find out if it excists in version 2.11.148. The only curious thing is that although I reversed whatsapp in my wife's phone, the camera app doesn't show up in her phone...

So lame
So lame the non existant reply from support from whatsapp

[Q] Maps: Black text on black background

I'm having some minor problem with google maps. Some of the text it displays is rendered black with a black background (which is unreadable). See the attached screenshot. Does anyone know how to fix this?
This has been happening on my Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 WiFi (n8013). I've installed Paranoid Androids Full Stock package. I posted a comment to the gapps thread, and they believed it to be a theme problem. But as I understand it, OmniRom is themeless, correct?
Otherwise, I have to say I am extremely happy with the rom. I had stopped using my tablet because it was slow and laggy with Samsung's stock android. Now it is so much better... Thanks to all the developers!

G3 Quick Circle Apps

Just thought this might be a place for anyone to post any quick circle apps they know of.
The Play Store seems very sparse.
All I can see is two by Sternberg Labs.
Any more very gratefully received..

LG G3/ THL 5000 quick circle/square - files location.
Hello guys,
Excuse me if I may be posting this thread in the wrong section but I couldn't find out anything about this topic.
The deal is that my boss bought THL 5000 which per my view is a good device. That phone, much like the LG G3, has a special case, that has a square cut in the upper part ( the one on the G3 is circle shaped). There you can see the clock, answer calls etc.
The issue he is having is that when the case is closed and there is an incoming call, the wallpaper of the caller is so light that he can't see the name of the person that is calling. I promised to help him, assigned a picture to my contact in his phone, called him but on the quick square screen the default photo remains. If I open the phone I can then see the photo I want but not on the quick lockscreen
Thinking it is quite similar as the LG G3 quick circle, I tried to find some information on where these files could be found through root browser so that I can replace the picture with darker one but to no avail. The phone is rooted and I am desperately trying to find a way of changing this caller wallpaper on the quick lockscreen access ( as stated above - trying to change contact's photo didn't do the trick)

stock sms app question

newb here. do anyone here experience this? =
when emojis from an iphone is sent through sms, then when i look at that in the stock sms app, it only shows what looks like chinese characters instead of emojis . (i'm using the h990ds variant)
I know I haven't tested the stock SMS much.. tried to use it when I first bought the phone.. didn't like the layout and style... so i'm on TEXTRA right now..

In-app icons gone

Hi guys,
I'm running xiaomi.eu weekly on my phone, with the latest build being 30.10 based on android 11. I have posted this question over there as well, but it isn't looking like the dev want to see this as a ROM issue but more a standalone thing. Well..
The issue is that Edge and Spotify no longer seem to be showing inapp icons. Pic:
I have tried reinstalling the apps but that doesn't change anything.
Any ideas how to solve this? I'd rather not while my daily driver ?
Hey,
have you tried to change the system-font? To me it looks like the buttons are inside the font, and your not stock font does not seem have them?!
Not sure but that could be the reason for your issue!
Kind regards
