You only need to include the Noto Sans typo, which will take 900 kB.

Also keep in mind that you will need to design some automation to keep
this font updated, as the standard is continuously being extended.

Title:
  Emojis not fully supported which results in blank received SMS
  messages

Status in Messaging App:
  Confirmed
Status in “messaging-app” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged
Status in “ofono” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Android allows for adding emojis[1] to SMS messages. I'm told that iOS
  users are able to see these emojis. Our messaging app should also
  support displaying emojis.

  emojis appear to not requires MMS since when using Google Hangouts in
  the new android, when you add an emoji the hangouts app says 'Sent now
  via SMS'. Two things need to happen:

  1. need to be able to correctly receive SMS messages with arbitrary
  emojis. Currently, on image 120, an SMS with a known emoji, eg, a
  smiley face, will display correctly when it is and is not accompanied
  with text. However, an SMS with an unknown emoji (eg, with a pinata)
  will show up as a blank SMS, even when the SMS has text. At a minimum,
  the text of the message should always be shown, perhaps with an
  'unknown emoji' placeholder

  2. need to be able to send SMS messages with emojis
