I am developing a chat application(like Simple Gtalk) for android mobiles. I am facing few issues in display emoji's/emoticons.

I need to replace the special character to a emojis image. How can i do this?

  1. I select Image from grid.
  2. Display corresponding special character of image selected into Edit Text along with message i typed.

  3. When i click on send button i need to display emojis/ emotions instead of special character in the above list view where i display all the messages i receive from .NET web service. These images(emojis) are stored in drawable folder.

    • I get these messages from web service. But I want to know how can I find and replace the special character with a emojis image along with my text message coming from web service.
