How to set launcher application icon on Android Cellphone with 1.5 api

Question

I Im working with a Motorola DEXT with a 1.5 api, and the application launcher icon it's not shown. When I use an emulator with a 1.6 or newer api it works just fine. Is there any additional steps to configure the icon for older apis like the 1.5 I'm working on?

Thank you very much

Sorry for the late reply. You need the intent-filter shown below in the activity you want the launcher to launch:

    <activity
            android:name=".ActivityToBeStartedByLauncher"
            android:label="@string/app_name"
            >
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
            <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
        </intent-filter>
    </activity>
