On my BQ Aquaris 4.5 the emojis are shown, e.g. in Telegram (not coloured as in Android though). The problem is that you cannot use them in a message: there's no support in the keyboard. This is a serious lack and IMHO a fix is overdue.

If I am correct, the emoticons/emojis are code in Unicode from U+1F600 bis U+1F64F. However, other symbols like broken heart and others might also be interesting, for example: U+1F493 - U+1F493, U+1F4A1 - U+1F4A6, U+2639 - U+2642,... For those interested, these glyphs are currently included in the fonts-vlgothic package in the Ubuntu repositories.
