I applied @cpfeiffer suggestion, then I saw it was already done :)
Here only the init part is set as 'synchronized', very small
optimisation but because this change is ready, why not sharing it :)
Some devices don't support emoji's and display a series of `?` chars.
Instead of that, replace them by `:<emoji>:` text, e.g. `A 🐱` is
replaced by `A 🐱`.
This is done by using 'android-emojify' project and their
`EmojiUtils.shortCodify(text);` function.
