Solucionado: I will escalate this issue to

Hello, since from today my XDK ver 2365 make a wrong plist file.

Same project as yesterday, plists different, so not every icon is passed in plist and app misses icon (so standard cordova is used onto devices).

How it comes?

Having your "source" directory equal to "" (that is, equal to the root of your project directory) is probably the source of this problem, for reasons that are hard to explain. That directory structure may also not upgrade well into the next release of the XDK and should also be changed for that reason. Try doing the following:

make a copy of your existing project, the entire project directory
on Windows, use File Explorer to "right-click" and "copy" your project directory, then "right-click" and "paste"
on Mac use Finder to to "right-click" and then "duplicate" your project directory
create a "www" directory inside the new duplicate project you just created above
move your index.html and other source and asset files to the "www" directory you just created -- this is now your "source" directory, located inside your "project" directory (do not move the <project-name>.xdk and xdke files and any intelxdk.config.*.xml files, those must stay in the root of the project directory)
inside the new project that you made above, rename the <project-name>.xdk file and <project-name>.xdke files to something like project-copy.xdk and project-copy.xdke (anything you like, just different than the original, preferably the same name as the new project folder in which you are doing this)
using a TEXT EDITOR (only), such as Notepad or Sublime or Brackets or some other TEXT editor, open the new "project-copy.xdk" file (whatever you named it) and find the line named projectGuid, it will look something like this:
"projectGuid": "a863c382-ca05-4aa4-8601-375f9f209b67",
change the "GUID" to all zeroes, like this: "00000000-0000-0000-000000000000"
a few lines down find: "sourceDirectory": "",
change it to this: "sourceDirectory": "www",
save the modified "project-copy.xdk" file
open the Intel XDK
go to the Projects tab
select "Open an Intel XDK Project" (green button) at the bottom left of the Projects tab
locate the new "project-copy.xdk" file inside the new project folder you copied above
now try the trick I provided above

Let me know if that works.

I will escalate this issue to our Intel XDK Build team.

Elroy_A_Intel · ‎09-18-2015

I recommend trying a build right now. The build system is regularly updated which could have resulted in the issues in your plist file. Can you provide your complete Build log?

Alessandro_S_ · ‎09-18-2015

I tried now, and I have the same problem.

Anyway, I think that a developer should be worried only about his code issues, not about developing environment issues.

I put my log in attachment.

Please help me, my customers ask me for the problem and I don't know how to answer.

PaulF_IntelCorp · ‎09-18-2015

Inspecting the build log you attached, I see the following icons and splash screens:

Copying icon from .../Visitami_Prof/www/60.png to .../Visitami_Prof/platforms/ios/Visitami_Prof/Resources/icons/icon-60.png
Copying icon from .../Visitami_Prof/www/120.png to .../Visitami_Prof/platforms/ios/Visitami_Prof/Resources/icons/icon-60@2x.png

Copying splash from .../Visitami_Prof/www/i2208.png to .../Visitami_Prof/platforms/ios/Visitami_Prof/Resources/splash/Default-736h.png

Is this the list of icons and splash screens you expect to be part of your app?

Alessandro_S_ · ‎09-18-2015

Yes. If it may help, in the plist yesterday there was icon in the icon list, today at the same place there is icon.png

Alessandro_S_ · ‎09-18-2015

So, any news?

PaulF_IntelCorp · ‎09-18-2015

Are you sure the icons are not present in the app? Have you tried installing the app onto a device? See this post for some details: https://software.intel.com/en-us/forums/intel-xdk/topic/593887

Alessandro_S_ · ‎09-18-2015

Yes because this is a project perfectly working til yesterday. The app on real device has icon but doesnt have any more icons for finder and push. Yesterday the app had these icons. I have icons on the main root as index.html. What is changed?

PaulF_IntelCorp · ‎09-18-2015

Try using this technique, in your intelxdk.config.additions.xml file, and let me know if it works:

<!-- iOS icons -->
<!-- Spotlight Icon -->
    <icon platform="ios" src="pkg/ios/icon-40.png" width="40" height="40" />
    <icon platform="ios" src="pkg/ios/icon-40@2x.png" width="80" height="80" />
    <icon platform="ios" src="pkg/ios/icon-40@3x.png" width="120" height="120" />
<!-- iPhone / iPod Touch -->
    <icon platform="ios" src="pkg/ios/icon.png" width="57" height="57" />
    <icon platform="ios" src="pkg/ios/icon@2x.png" width="114" height="114" />
    <icon platform="ios" src="pkg/ios/icon-60.png" width="60" height="60" />
    <icon platform="ios" src="pkg/ios/icon-60@2x.png" width="120" height="120" />
    <icon platform="ios" src="pkg/ios/icon-60@3x.png" width="180" height="180" />
<!-- iPad -->
    <icon platform="ios" src="pkg/ios/icon-72.png" width="72" height="72" />
    <icon platform="ios" src="pkg/ios/icon-72@2x.png" width="144" height="144" />
    <icon platform="ios" src="pkg/ios/icon-76.png" width="76" height="76" />
    <icon platform="ios" src="pkg/ios/icon-76@2x.png" width="152" height="152" />
<!-- iPhone Spotlight and Settings Icon -->
    <icon platform="ios" src="pkg/ios/icon-small.png" width="29" height="29" />
    <icon platform="ios" src="pkg/ios/icon-small@2x.png" width="58" height="58" />
    <icon platform="ios" src="pkg/ios/icon-small@3x.png" width="87" height="87" />
<!-- iPad Spotlight and Settings Icon -->
    <icon platform="ios" src="pkg/ios/icon-50.png" width="50" height="50" />
    <icon platform="ios" src="pkg/ios/icon-50@2x.png" width="100" height="100" />

Note the icons must be located within your www directory and are located relative to that folder in the example above (that is, they are located in <project-root>/www/pkg/ios/icon). You don't have to organize them exactly as shown above, but they must be inside the www directory.

Alessandro_S_ · ‎09-18-2015

Ok but the directory where I have index.html is root not www. I dont have www folder in my project. Should i create it and put icons inside? Ps. If i open ipa file with winzip i see www folder with icons even if i dont have www folder in my project; If i replace the plist file in my new and not working ipa with plist file coming from ipa built yesterday everything works well: so the ptoblem is not icons not in package but a wrong plist file generated in new build.

Alessandro_S_ · ‎09-19-2015

it has worked! You forgot to explain that I had to move files into www leaving out project files, configuration and so on.

Anyway spotlight on iPhone5s still misses icon and cordova standard is shown. spotlight on iPhone4 and iPhone6 are ok.

Push icon is ok on iPhone4,5,6.

Another question: during installation cordova icon is shown, but when installed the correct icon is shown: how it comes?

PaulF_IntelCorp · ‎09-19-2015

When I woke up this morning I realized I forgot that important step of moving your index.html and other source files to the www directory! I'm glad you figured out that crucial step! :) -- I've edited my post to reflect that missing step...

Not sure why the spotlight on the iPhone5s is missing, my list of icons in the prior post should represent everything you need, double-check to be sure you've got something equivalent to all that I listed in that post.

Regarding the Cordova icon being shown during install, that will require some deeper investigation. I've already got the build engineer looking at this thread, he may know what is causing that to happen.

Alessandro_S_ · ‎09-19-2015

oh thank you anyway!

Please can You help me for my new issue about facebook plugin? Just put in the forum a new thread. I'm stuck and I don't know how to handle my customers
