You should propably re-generate the aif file, also see that you don't change its name. all and all, usually the app without aif file should show the default icon in the menu.

hi

I am porting my application from s60 2nd fp3 to s60 3rd_MR.
By refering S60_Platform_Porting_from_2nd_to_3rd_Edition_v1_1_en.pdf
I did neccessary changes.

But application icon was not getting reflected instead default is diplaying on emulator.

my Icons_scalable_dc.mk as follows:

ifeq (WINS,$(findstring WINS, $(PLATFORM)))
ZDIR=$(EPOCROOT)epoc32\release\$(PLATFORM)\$(CFG)\z
else
ZDIR=$(EPOCROOT)epoc32\data\z
endif
# ------------------------------------------------------------
# Configuration for myapp
# ------------------------------------------------------------
TARGETDIR=$(ZDIR)\resource\apps
HEADERDIR=$(EPOCROOT)epoc32\include
ICONTARGETFILENAME=$(TARGETDIR)\URchODPIcon.mif
HEADERFILENAME=$(HEADERDIR)\URchODPIcon.mbg

do_nothing :
@rem do_nothing

MAKMAKE : do_nothing

BLD : do_nothing

CLEAN :
if exist "$(ICONTARGETFILENAME)" @del $(ICONTARGETFILENAME)
if exist "$(HEADERFILENAME)" @del $(HEADERFILENAME)
if exist "$(TARGETDIR)\URchODPIcon.mbm" @del $(TARGETDIR)\URchODPIcon.mbm

LIB : do_nothing

CLEANLIB : do_nothing

RESOURCE:
@mifconv $(ICONTARGETFILENAME) /h$(HEADERFILENAME) \
/c24 ..\gfx\qgn_menu_demo_cxt.bmp \

FREEZE : do_nothing

SAVESPACE : do_nothing

RELEASABLES :
@echo $(HEADERFILENAME)&& \
@echo $(ICONTARGETFILENAME)

FINAL : do_nothing


--------
And
I added following lineESOURCE LOCALISABLE_APP_INFO r_urchodp_localisable_app_info
{
short_caption = STRING_r_urchodp_caption_string;
caption_and_icon =
CAPTION_AND_ICON_INFO
{
caption = STRING_r_urchodp_caption_string;

number_of_icons = 1;
icon_file = "\\resource\\apps\\URchODPIcon.mbm";

};
}s to my.RSS file:

-----
And last I added the following line to my.rls file:
rls_string STRING_r_urchodp_loc_resource_file_1 "\\resource\\apps\\URchODP"

Any further help appreciated.

With MBM icon the number_of_icons should propably be larger than 1, anyway, would be better to use real mif icon instead.

Usually I would not put the icon path/name in the resource file, unless you are using different for different languages. anyway, just check that all paths & names are correct and it should work fine.
