Update: Available in cydia from iSpazio.

PLIST IS HERE: http://localhostr.com/files/cd6a49/c...nces.plist.zip

As an addendum to my last post, I decided to figure out how to enable Emoji systemwide. My findings were first posted on Twitter, but I'm putting them here for persistence.

You need to replace the file

/User/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Preferences.plist

on the device -> whether you use a jailbreak to achieve this or merely some iTunes backup editor is up to you.

Add the following boolean key as 'true':

KeyboardEmojiEverywhere





Then merely go to the Keyboards section of the Settings app, hit Japanese, and turn on Emoji. Will work for any text field/view in the OS, including on websites, AND including the titles of items on SpringBoard (e.g. if you save a bookmark to the home screen).

Have fun!

Update: You can activate Emoji directly from the Installer, adding the following source:

iFon Norway - Norway's Best Repository Of iPhone Applications

and installing the package under the name: "Emoji everywhere"

it all boils down to 1 command for me (I have ssh & erica's utilities )

plutil -1 KeyboardEmojiEverywhere /User/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Preferences.plist

then turn it on in settings!

So if you are in America (or not Japan) and texted a non-iPhone person with an emoji in it will they see it or some kind of key stroke equivalent like ": )" or something

[Sparblaze]

I'm wondering that too Bernie-Mac. I will try to test this soon.

emoji are LOTS more emoticons for SMS & mail (iPhones & touches only)

I'm on AT&T and don't speak any Japanese. Emoji are just FUN!

Ok I tried this with a Blackberry, and they don't appear. I haven't tried sending to my 3G yet.

This is great ^_^ I love Emojis wish it became standard to have them here in North America maybe this is the start with all us jailbroken fiends using this maybe other companies will startt carrying them as well.

did not find repository

[elr0y7]

I wish I had a use for these, theres so many cool ones!

[iChopPryde]

you have this posted on installer anyway of putting this on cydia?

how do you edit the plist?

[Sparblaze]

This is on iSpazio in cydia, but I have heard it didn't work. I'll try to put it on mmi's repo, but I (like iSpazio) am unsure about how to make the file replace that file when you download it.

[reeko]

settings/general/keyboard/japanese/emojicons to ON and it works fine.

[Sparblaze]

Reeko, did you use the iSpazio way?

[tw1zt3d]

i did it through ispazio via cydia...the first attempt didn't take, so i tried it again. second time, it restarted springboard instead of back to cydia. went to keyboard, japanese, clicked on emoji. went to sms, the little world icon thing pops up next to the space bar, and when you press it, it displays all the different emoji..those crazy japanese
