[android-developers] Re: The app icon disappears on app upgrade on Nexus devices (4.2.2)

Read the "Things That Cannot Change" article by Dianne Hackborn - I think you may have broken some of the assumptions:

The problem happens only on 4.2.x devices. After the upgrade of our app the app launcher icon is invisible. It flashes for a split second during the upgrade (adb install -r NewVersion.apk) but then removed.

If I force stop the Launcher it appears. It also appears on it's own after a long time - a few hours. Obviously it is not acceptable for user installations. Fresh installation doesn't have this problem.

What could have possibly caused it - we have renamed the main activity of our product and changed the icon, but we are not sure is this really the reason. Like I mentioned it wasn't the problem at all until 4.2.2 came along. Any suggestion on what can be done in the project to make the new icon show up right away is very welcome.
