How to Get Smilies in the Symbol Box

  • July,26th,2009 at 4:01 PM

Here's how it's done. You'll need to have access to the Linux subsystem. You also may need to mount the file system:

sudo mount -o remount,rw /

Type this into your terminal:

cd /usr/palm/frameworks/mojo/submissions/200.18/resources/en_us


Now:

sudo mv alternatechars_table.json alternatechars_table.json.old

Now type:

sudo wget http://files.getdropbox.com/u/1517634/alternatechars_table.json

Reboot your phone.

Whenever you want to type a smiley you'll now have two options.

<sym><k> will give you smiley faces ( :-) )

and

<sym><z> will give you the meanings ( :smile)

I would recommend the first, just because it's not so broken looking, but it does all work...
