Android Application Icon Change

Question

Hi,

Is it possible to change the android application icon at run time? I've read through Changing the application icon text dynamically in Android and How can i change an application icon programmatically in Android?. All answered can't. I use Android 1.6. Is there any way?

Answer 1

Two possible answers:

1) You can't. As CommonsWare said in that post:

You cannot change the manifest or the resource in the signed-and-sealed APK, except through a software upgrade.

2) Use the widget approach as mentioned here.
