My emoticons are gone after updating

[Sydneyarbor]

Just updated Z3 Compact. Where have all the normal emoticons gone from SMS Messages?

Hi @Sydneyarbor,

Do I understand you correctly in that you are referring to the Xperia Keyboard Emoji, while using the standard Messaging app? Make sure that "Smiley key" is enabled under Settings > Language & input > Xperia keyboard > Symbols and smileys, you should then be able to see the Smiley key whenever you are inputting a message.
