Subject: application icon problem

I plan to use 1 of my icon images, under ./res directory, as an application
icon (to be shown on mobile device w/ the application name). I edited
Project.jad file to include res/icon.png in Midlets and Optional tabs but
when the package is built (jar/jad) and installed on the mobile, the icon is
never showned (all application icons displayed correctly in the app when
its launched)! I tried to put in the full path of the icon; i.e.
C:/Blablabla/Project/res/icon.png as well as the short path; i.e. icon.png
but none worked. Did I do it right?

It could be dependent of what phone you use. Some phones do not display
icons that do not have the correct size. A size of 48x48 has worked on
many devices for me. On what phones did you test?

Could be the device problem. I remember seeing the app icon in Sprint/RAZR a
while back. But since I changed the Eclipse configuration so many times, I
don't remember the right config. The device I am testing now is Sprint/LG
550 (Fusic). Under Application folder, some other commercial apps do have
icon displayed (but not ... ours.)

Thanks,

On WTK you must put the / before the icon name.

I believe that the folder res is not created in the deployed jar file.
Try using /icon.png

Sandin is right, of course - the resources beyond ./res will be copied
to the root of the jar, so res/icon.png can be accessed by "icon.png" -
in my projects I do not use /icon.png, just icon.png.

Yeah, it's definitely a device issue. I used just icon.png (not /icon.png)
and same build shows on some devices and not on some other devices. Too bad.
