title: Emoji Keyboard support for EditField in android
body: <p>My application uses Android 4.0 on Samsung Galaxy S3. </p>
  
  <p>I want to integrate Emoji character support in EditText field in Android application.
  Can anyone suggest me, how can I achieve it?</p>
  
  <p>For example, In whatsapp and wechat application, TextField does support Emoji keyboard characters, but in my application it shows <code>?</code> for each character I type using Emoji keyboard.</p>

  <pre><code>text_message = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.editText1);
      text_view = (textView) findViewById(R.id.textView1);
      btntest = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button1);
      btntest.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener()
      {
          public void onClick(View v)
          {
  
              text_swype.setText(text_message.getText().toString());
          }
