Additions

Some vendors, most notably Microsoft, Samsung and HTC, add emoji presentation to some other existing Unicode characters or coin their own ZWJ sequences.
Microsoft displayed all Mahjong tiles and alternative card suits as emoji. They also supported additional pencils and a heart-shaped bullet.
While only is officially an emoji, Microsoft and Samsung add the other three directions as well. Microsoft no longer supports these emojis now.
Both vendors pair the standard checked ballot box emoji with its crossed variant, but only Samsung also has the empty ballot box.
Samsung almost completely covers the rest of the Miscellaneous Symbols block as emoji, which includes chess pieces, game die faces, some traffic sign as well as genealogical and astronomical symbols for instance.
HTC supports most additional pictographs from the Miscellaneous Symbols and Pictographs and Transport and Map Symbols blocks. Some of them are also shown as emoji on Samsung devices.
The open source projects Emojidex and Emojitwo are trying to cover all of these extensions established by major vendors.
