I am trying to upload an apk to the play store, and this is failing with the
message "Upload failed You need to add an icon to your APK.". This is a new
app and has not been uploaded before.
I used aapt.exe to dump the apk's badging and get the following:
package: name='foo.MyApp' versionCode='1' versionName='0.1' sdkVersion:'15'
targetSdkVersion:'15'
application-label:'My Application'
application: label='My Application' icon=''
application-debuggable
launchable-activity: name='foo.myapp.MainActivity' label='Start Screen'
icon='res/drawable/icon.png'
(identifying details removed and remainder omitted)
I'm assuming the icon='' on the third line is the problem.
Things I've checked:
1. I _do_ have an icon in Resources/Drawable/Icon.png. It is 72x72x32bit and
previews ok. Its build action is Android Resource.
2. In the generated obj/Release/android/AndroidManifest.xml file, the
<application> element does _not_ have an android:icon parameter. Other apps
have android:icon="@drawable/icon" there.
3. My main activity seems to be attributed correctly:
[Activity(MainLauncher=true, Label="@string/Title",
Icon="@drawable/Icon", Theme="@android:style/Theme.Holo.Light")]
public class MainActivity : Activity
{
// ...
}
4. The app runs correctly in the debugger on the emulator and a Galaxy S2
and the expected icon is displayed.
5. When I sign the app, the console output from jarsigner.exe indicates that
res/drawable/icon.png is present in the apk file.
6. I'm using Mono for Android 4.4.55 with VS2010 SP1 on Windows 8 x64.
7. I am able to build/sign/deploy other applications to the play store.
I've run out of ideas on this. I'd be very grateful if anyone could suggest
possible solutions for this.
Thanks, Andy
