To be able to install them (when moving from official discord app), you'll need to first uninstall Discord app and restart your device. You may also need to enable play protect.
You can just update directly from APKs there once you do that, so this is a process you only need to do once.

## Toolchain setup
- Get apktool
- Get a keystore, see [here](https://stackoverflow.com/a/14994354/3286892), step 1.
- Get 72x72 copies of latest version of mutant standard emojis with codepoints. I have a zip [here](https://mutant.lavatech.top/72x72.zip).
Switch to a simpler method of emoji stuffs less fuckery needed now~
2019-01-18 19:16:00 +00:00
- Extract the emojis you got somewhere.
Update 'README.md'
2019-01-19 21:22:48 +00:00
- Clone this repo somewhere, edit `emojireplace.py` and set the `extracted_mutstd_path` folder to the folder you just extracted emojis to.

## Building an patched discord app
sigh, mention apkmirror
2019-01-19 21:26:27 +00:00
- Get a Discord apk (*cough* [apkmirror](https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/discord-inc/discord-chat-for-gamers/), [aptoide API](https://ws75.aptoide.com/api/7/app/getMeta?package_name=com.discord)).

- Extract it with apktool (`apktool d <apk path>`)
- Get all the necessary patches for that version. Necessary patches are not available for all versions and are only required to get some versions to pack together correctly.
- Get optional patches you want for your version. If the patch you want isn't available for your version, you'll have to port them yourself.
