Emoji Bug in iOS 5.1?

[alamarco]

Anyone else experiencing bugged emoji since iOS 5.1? Not sure if it's iPhone specific related, but I have an iPhone 4 and not a 4S.

Anyways, if I click the button to change keyboard to the emoji keyboard a lot of the time, not all, the keyboard of emoji will be blank except for the ability to change to different types of emoji. If I click the other types it stays blank, but if I click the most recently used emoji show up and going back to the other types emoji show up as normal.

It's a weird little bug. Currently have emoji disabled, probably for a day and turn back on after to see if it still does it.

Works on my 4s

I'm having the same problem, and I am on a 4S.

For me flipping to any other tab and back restores the missing characters. I tried removing the emoji keyboard, restarting, and then re-adding it, but the bug continues. Since I use emoji a lot, it's been quite annoying.

Good to know I'm not the only one experiencing this. Hopefully Apple will fix this. I re-enabled emoji and the bug still persisted for me as well.

Strange. I'm 4s but not having that problem.
