Missing/Uncolored Emojis in Android 5.x.x? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ever since I updated to Android 5.0 Lollipop, I've noticed a few missing/black and white emojis.
The most prominent missing emojis are ✌ (peace sign), ☝ (hand with finger pointing up), and ♥ (the classic heart).
Since then, I have updated to Android 5.1 Lollipop, and the emojis are still missing.
My attached screenshots are from Android 5.1 Lollipop.
In KitKat, all the missing emojis were there, and were all colored. I have no idea why Lollipop removed them. All of these emojis show up in Google Keyboard, making it odd and inconsistent to see missing emojis.
Is there a fix for this?

You need a KitKat-based ROM for coloured emojis.
Googles keyboard has support for typing emojis.

Thats just the way it is in 4.3 I think, You can try this app
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.stevenschoen.emojiswitcher
Or try a sms app that can use and display coloured emoji's.
Also questions go in the q&a area.
SwiftKey brings the emoji keyboard

[Q] How to get Apple-Style Emojis on JB

I just bought a Blu Advance 4.0, a simple, cheap Android phone. It runs 4.2 (lastest system I can run), and I've been trying like crazy to replace some system files or something so I can view emoticons in iOS style system-wise, but I just can't figure it out! I found a good, working keyboard (com.qisiemoji.inputmethod in the Play store), but I want to display the iOS style emojis. I actually have OSX, so I can extract the PNGs from the official Apple TTF (as done here before: on github, find /tmm1/emoji-extractor). I've been looking around everywhere, and I just can't find a way to do this yet. Any ideas? (Yep, I'm rooted)

Thanks for your reply. I checked out that App, and the keyboard works flawlessly! However, I still have the Android B&W emoticons displayed in-app when I'm typing.

Skinning Stock Android 5.x ROM to look like Android 4.3?

Hello,
I've been holding off upgrading to Android 5 or newer and have been sticking to Android 4.3 because I plainly do not like how the icons and graphics for Android 4.4 and up looks like. Would it be possible to make Android 5.x look exactly like Android 4.3? Perhaps with a skin?
For example, the shape of the Back, Home and Switch Window icons at the bottom of the screen, the position of the Quick Settings in the Notification Panel, the shape and icon design of the Wi-Fi and Cellular signal strength and so on.
I have my Sony Stock Android 4.3 Rooted, which allows me to apply security fixes (ie. disabling Stagefright in build.prop) and installing permissions managers but I think as Android 4.3 ages more and more exploits would be possible against it. So I was wondering if it is possible to upgrade to Android 5x and then skin it to look and feel like 4.3.
Thank you!

That's a very weird thing to do, but alright.
First of all, any reason why you're not on 4.4.4? That's the last KitKat version. Heck, 4.3 isn't even KitKat! It's Jelly Bean, so you're two versions behind. KitKat looks the same as Jelly Bean and runs much better than Jelly Bean.
Second, you can change the navigation buttons (the three buttons at the bottom) by either using an Xposed module or by installing an app (just google "change android navbar icons".
Third, you can also flash CM12.1 and use a theme. You won't find a theme that looks like the old Sony UI, because why would anyone make that, but you can theme it to look like anything else than stock Lollipop.
Fourth, you can stay on 4.4.4 and have a rather big issue at hand once you have to buy a new device It's not like Google will revert the design, so the best thing to do is to start liking it, or move to a different OS.
Cheers

Thanks for the reply. I've been trying some builds here and there, such as Cyanogenmod and Blisspop, I just have to use 5.x for a few days I guess.
What ROMs would you recommend that doesn't have broken features? Right now I'm using Sony Stock 5.1.1 and rooted it using the Kingroot app and replaced that with SuperSU.

The most stable ones are of course the official ones, so the one you're already running and the GPe port are the most stable ones. Also, I guess you can simply use a theme on the ROM you're running right now. Take a look here if you haven't already.
Bro just use lp with nova launcher

Gboard Missing Unicode 9.0 Emoji

I'm having an issue where the new Unicode 9.0 emoji are missing from my Gboard. I have updated the keyboard to the latest version as of the time of this post (6.0.79) and I can see the new emoji in apps and browsers it's just that the keyboard does NOT display them. I have also noticed that I'm missing the frowning face emoji (this one ☹)
I'm using a Galaxy S6 edge running on Android 6.0.1.
Is anyone else having the same issue? Or should I simply just wait for Google to update the keyboard?
I came across your post by searching for a solution on Google. I have the exact same issue with Gboard 6.1 + Nougat 7.0 on my Galaxy S7 edge. Swiftkey displays the new emojis correctly though (stock Google ones, iOS 10 ones, etc.) but Gboard doesn't.

Uncoloured/Black-White emojis in Android 5.1

I got a new phone and discovered that some of my emojis were black and white. My phone is running near stock Android 5.1. I tried changing the emojis to iOS ones but it didn't help. How do I fix this? Please help.
