1826 Android build: no icons or splash screens

To reproduce this problem, only populate LPDPI, MDPI, HDPI,XHDPI icons for icon and splash screens/Android. Do not populate Android-crosswalk. All resolutions of splash screens loaded.

Build as Cordova hybrid/Android. Install.  Icon is default XDK and no splash screen appears.

Next populate the Android-crosswalk icons. Build for Cordova hybrid/Android. Installed app now has icons and splash screens displayed.

I just checked, icons and splashscreens seem to be working fine on Android builds, can you check your intelxdk.config.android.xml file in develop tab and look for the icon and splash entries in the xml file. make sure the paths for icons and splashscreens are correct paths.

Rakshith,

This problem is reproducible though it took me two tries this morning. First was an apk that would not install.

Create a new project with the tabview app and only fill in the icons and splash screens Android landscape.  The attached zip is for landscape only so check the box. Do not fill them in for Android xwalk.  Leave everything blank.

Look at the xml files.  There should be no icon or splash screen entries in the xwalk.  Android has them with correct paths.  If you build Android at this point the apk does not include icons or splash. Fill in only the Android-xwalk icons, build Android again, icons and splash screens.

The workaround appears you have to fill in the xwalk icon entries even if you do not use them.
