Hi folks

In the iphone 4 they've made it easier to get emojis in texts without having to install other software. However, previously I could just type the characters and it would be replaced by the emoji. So for example if I entered semi-colon dash close bracket, this would get replaced by a wink. And when I received a text where someone had typed the characters, I would see a wink in the text. Now this no longer happens. An emoji is only seen when picked from the emoji screen. Both when I send a text and when I receive one

Is there a way to fix this? Or is nobody else seeing this?

Thanks
 
nobody? I even fully restored my iphone (as new) and still get this, it's not a major issue of course, just annoying is all
