Hi all,
If i can add a stone to the edifice,

Since the last update, I have lost the emoticons from vibers, I can't even receive the one from Iphone users. They appear as special charaters and chinese or japanese characters.
Any fix or add on app to fix this?
Thanks

Hmm...
We've just tried sending emoticons on the new Viber version (using Emoji), and they are sent just fine.
Are you sure both sides have the emoticon client, and that both sides have the latest version of Viber?

Many thanks for your help.

Well,
Emoji is a completely separate app than Viber. The fact that emoticons work on Viber is simply because Viber allows using iPhone's native keyboards. Once Emoji is configured as a legitimate keyboard, there is no reason why specifically Viber wouldn't allow using it.

After you install Emoji and go through the keyboard configuration process (check out this quick guide: http://www.cultofmac.com/37959/enable-the-...os-4-0-how-to/) then reboot your phone. Then, open Viber, and check if emoticons are finally there. If not, check your iPhone native text app. Do you have emoticons there? Are they sent fine when you text normally?

Aren't we on an android section of the forum??
I am running the lastest android version on a google nexus one.
I tried a reboot of the system and it does not work.
It does not work either in a text application.
In fact I probably only have it in handcent because of the plugin..

Anyway to get it to work?

Thanks again for your help..
