I've tried to search for my answer both here and with Google, not really turning up anything concrete either way so I figured I'd ask where possibly someone would know the answer.
I understand why Emoji doesn't show up on other phones when I send them from my iPhone, I've got that already. I'm not totally sure why emoticons don't show up on my iPhone when sent from other phones, guess it's cause of the difference in formats (emoji vs emoticon).
Is there any way to get emoticons onto the iPhone 4, either native or with an app? If it's by app, is there one that will integrate with iMessage so I don't have to use two separate message apps on my phone? It's just slightly annoying and not really that big of an issue I don't guess but it's kinda annoying when people send me text messages and they include those things and I have no idea what they're trying to send me, except the standard smile.
Also, in regards to MMS... is there a way to get the iPhone to receive and view those stupid pictures with sound like most all other phones do instead of the picture being separate and the audio separate too? Another little stupid thing but it aggravates me to receive those things and them not work either. Just some questions that I had and haven't been able to find an answer that I felt was correct.
Thanks
