Display \u00F0\u009F\u0098\u0098 string to emoji in android textview?

enter image description here 

str = videoname.get(i);
    String toServer = str;
    String toServerUnicodeEncoded = StringEscapeUtils.escapeJava(toServer);
    viewHolder.textss.setText(toServerUnicodeEncoded);
    Log.e("emos",toServerUnicodeEncoded);

I am retrieving a string from URL using volley and the string contains emojis in it which I want to display in Android TextView. So for that, I have taken the string then passed it in StringEscapeUtils.escapeJava(toServer) and after that I am getting the emoji in "\u00F0\u009F\u0098\u0098" form, Instead of "\uD83D\uDE18" form . So how to display emoji in textview?

String title = new String(c.getString("title").getBytes("ISO-8859-1"), "UTF-8");

While Parsing the response I used this now instead of: 

String title = String(c.getString("title");

This solved my emoji issue.

This worked for me , Try this.

Import this library 

implementation 'org.apache.commons:commons-lang3:3.4'

Then use its method to convert String(emoji code) to Emoji to show in TextView

textView.setText(StringEscapeUtils.unescapeJava(string_value));

Eg:-

Input String :- "\ud83d\ude01"

Result:-

This is html encoding string. Check code:

String txt = "\u00F0\u009F\u0098\u0098";
tvHihiView.setText(Html.fromHtml(txt));

TextView txt_price = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.txt_price);

txt_price.setText("\u20B9" + " 5000");

You don't need to convert it to unicode directly use that string code like

 TextView txt = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.txt);
        txt.setText("\u00F0");

for more unicide code check this URL

Hope this helpful to you.

You need to unescape your escaped String.

You can use StringEscapeUtils.unescapeJava(String) to unescape it.

The problem is fully explained here.
