[Announce] Harmoji - Emoji for Harmattan - V0.7.3
 

Harmoji is the Harmattan implementation of Emoji. Harmoji enables the viewing of Emoji characters throughout the system, as well as inputting them.

It supports all the emoji found in the iOS version.

How to enable Harmoji:
Once you install the app, the device will reboot. From here, Harmoji is enabled to allow you to view Emoji icons. To input them yourself, you need to enable the Harmoji Keyboards.

This is done in Settings>Time & Language > Text Input > Installed Keyboards. Remember to select all the Keyboards listed as "Harmoji (x)"

Updating releases:
It is suggested to remove the existing version and rebooting before updating. For releases with updated keyboards, you will need to disable and then re-enable the keyboard for the changes to take full effect.

Uninstalling Harmoji:
When you uninstall Harmoji, disable the keyboards first, and then proceed with the uninstall.

Before anybody asks;
Sadly, it does not allow iPhone users to send a text containing Emoji. That is a bug in Harmattan itself.

Plans for upcoming release:
- Improved consistency between Harmoji keyboards, as well as native keyboard, in terms of layout.
- Enable coloured Emoji both viewing and input.
- Enable Keyboards automatically after installation.
- Remove the Android smiley [Added as of 0.7.3]
- If possible, remove the need for reboot [Added as of 0.7 ]

Known Bugs:
- Some Chinese users face an issue where two keys are swapped (either side of space bar)
- Can't send texts with Harmoji as of 0.7. Can send texts normally, but harmoji causes them to get the "could not send message to [number]" error
- Some characters show up as squares. A reboot fixes that

Hope to try it soon ;)

Re: [Announce] Harmoji - Emoji for Harmattan
 

They look cool, do you mind porting it to fremantle :) ? or it is impossible ?

Re: [Announce] Harmoji - Emoji for Harmattan
 

i cant see download link, @_@

Re: [Announce] Harmoji - Emoji for Harmattan
 

We'll have to wait some while more ;)

Re: [Announce] Harmoji - Emoji for Harmattan
 

Shouldn't be too long, although, I have an updated version, so I may push that quickly today, not sure. If I push it today, just means you may need to wait longer :/

Re: [Announce] Harmoji - Emoji for Harmattan
 

I don't have an N900 ( I know, depressing :( ) but I don't think it would be too hard, as long as KBD can be customised. PM ME :)

Re: [Announce] Harmoji - Emoji for Harmattan
 

Thanks Michael for the mention, awaiting it in the store now :)

Re: [Announce] Harmoji - Emoji for Harmattan
 

I've discovered this when trying to fix emoji displaying in notifications for Wazapp.
Final result was that it was enabled system wide.

Thanks to all the testers, big thanks to Michael for making keyboards, packaging and publishing.

Special thanks to Flopjoke and Brkn that have worked relentless on making and baking the font in early stages with me.

Technical answers:

Only Apple has colored emojis because they used a special Unicode6.1 font embedding PNGs and preparing OS for it.

Harmattan system apps can display only black and white.
3rd party apps will have an API to use if they wish to use PNGs in color. Their apps will just work without any change with black and white. I've tested with most of popular apps.

Porting to Freamantle could be possible of someone reports back of the OS uses Fontconfig.

Maliit doesn't support PNG in keys. Askes the dev, he says it's interesting and will consider it.


For every other question please approach Michael.
I just hack stuff when we need them. :)

Re: [Announce] Harmoji - Emoji for Harmattan
 

Thank you Michael for the application as well as mentioning me. Can't wait to get the final release. ;)

Re: [Announce] Harmoji - Emoji for Harmattan
 

Nice! Looks like someone is already ahead whenever I get an idea in my head about creating something lol

Wait a min.. I made the font for this? Wow, I didn't even know :P

Re: [Announce] Harmoji - Emoji for Harmattan
 

How to download?

Re: [Announce] Harmoji - Emoji for Harmattan
 

It's waiting to be published in the Nokia store.

Re: [Announce] Harmoji - Emoji for Harmattan
 

This is nice. Might solve Emojis used in Instago (Instagram client) as well. Of course I'm interested in color as well :)

Great job on the font and integration! Thanks all.

Re: [Announce] Harmoji - Emoji for Harmattan
 

New version is ready to be published to the store, just waiting for current version to successfully pass QA.

I will let you guys know of the changes when I push the next version to QA :)

Don't forget to leave improvement suggestions here.

Thx for the support.

Re: [Announce] Harmoji - Emoji for Harmattan
 

Initial version (0.5.1) failed QA, but has been re-submitted with corrections. Hoping that passes soon, I will also push the next update (0.5.2)

Changes in 0.5.2:
* Improved KBD consitency
* Fixed issue with Changelog when packaging

Re: [Announce] Harmoji - Emoji for Harmattan

Re: [Announce] Harmoji - Emoji for Harmattan - V0.5.5
 

App now available on n9-apps. First post updated

Re: [Announce] Harmoji - Emoji for Harmattan - V0.5.5
 

i cant see at n9-app..

Re: [Announce] Harmoji - Emoji for Harmattan - V0.5.5
 

This app is also availabe as a tweak in N9 quick tweak. Just check the virtual keyboard mod section, is cool and works well with wazapp notifications :)

Re: [Announce] Harmoji - Emoji for Harmattan - V0.5.5
 

0.5.5 version interupted installation , after restart still doesnt work, i use 0.5.3 now, :|

Re: [Announce] Harmoji - Emoji for Harmattan - V0.5.5
 

Yes, I am aware, as I gave Schturman the files and information for him to implement. This is still the easiest method, and safest, especially for updating and uninstallation. Although using N9QT is fine, this is the better method. N9QT was a sort of "interim" release method.

This was due to my mistake, 0.5.5 will work now. Even if you downloaded 0.5.5, re-download it. It is a new package of the same version.

Re: [Announce] Harmoji - Emoji for Harmattan - V0.5.5
 

Works flawlessly now, thx so much, :)

Re: [Announce] Harmoji - Emoji for Harmattan - V0.5.5
 

I Love this app, suddenly my N9 is three times as good as any other phone. Is there any possibility to have it in one keyboard though? I Don't know the limitations of an N9 keyboard but having it over 4 does make it rather clunky. All the same though, great app!

Re: [Announce] Harmoji - Emoji for Harmattan - V0.5.5
 

I can extend the amount in each row, and rows them self, along with having extnded options (tap & hold letter for more) however, I chose to keep row numbers etc, the same, to keep it consistent

Re: [Announce] Harmoji - Emoji for Harmattan - V0.5.5
 

Can you have more pages per say? You have three per keyboard, Swype has five. If you hold down the extra characters button you get another page. Is it possible to do this?

Re: [Announce] Harmoji - Emoji for Harmattan - V0.5.5
 

I actually use 4 pages, shift, regular, symbol 1, symbol 2. I attempted making more pages, and it broke the keyboard.

Like I said, I can enable extended characters (tap & hold characters for more options) but beyond that, I am fairly restricted

Re: [Announce] Harmoji - Emoji for Harmattan - V0.5.5
 

am waiting for symoji:) for symbian

Re: [Announce] Harmoji - Emoji for Harmattan - V0.5.5
 

Not sure it can be done

Re: [Announce] Harmoji - Emoji for Harmattan - V0.5.5
 

Could you fix a small problem for Chinese User?
Since it is not a bug.


https://dc1.safesync.com/LMHHbWZh/IM...?a=PbnpK9m9FT4
This is formal punctuation.


https://dc1.safesync.com/LMHHbWZh/IM...?a=UkESShxF5Lw
This is informal punctuation after Harmoji installed.

If you can change back the punctuation for Chinese, Chinese user will feel better.

Re: [Announce] Harmoji - Emoji for Harmattan - V0.5.5
 

Yay! First bug report! I knew it wasn't perfect.

Is that in the Chinese keyboards? I do not alter them. I do not alter any keyboards, only add the Harmoji ones, and a font.

But if you send me the chinese keyboard you have before and after install of harmoji, I'll take a look for you

Re: [Announce] Harmoji - Emoji for Harmattan - V0.5.5
 

Please see my upload picture, I am sorry for my unclear showing.

Before there are，。、. After the installation, you can check the second picture.

The under section of the pictures

Re: [Announce] Harmoji - Emoji for Harmattan - V0.5.5
 

thanks! now i can see ios's emoji eventhough it didn't how in color! (wazapp chat)

Re: [Announce] Harmoji - Emoji for Harmattan - V0.5.5
 

I saw the picture. This is why I asked my question. I do not alter those keyboards. Is it that the two sides are being swapped around?

Please send me your chinese kbd xmls before and after install, So i can analyse the change.

Re: [Announce] Harmoji - Emoji for Harmattan - V0.6.0
 

V0.6 is now live! Check first post for info.
