Question

I am able to deploy my application but for some reason, I am not able to get the icon to display in the pull up menu on the Home page of the OS. Does anyone know what I can do to solve this?

By the way, the application shows up in “Manage Applications” but does not show up as an icon for some reason. Through Eclipse, I am able to start the application after deployment but that’s it… After that, I don’t have any way to start it because there is no icon. 🙁 Following is my manifest file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
      package="com.android.ApplicationName"
      android:versionCode="1"
      android:versionName="2.0">
    <application android:icon="@drawable/icon" 
                 android:debuggable="true"
                 android:label="@string/app_name">
        <activity android:name=".EntrySplash"
                  android:label="@string/app_name">
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
                <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
                <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE"></category>  
                <data android:scheme="com.android.ApplicationName"></data> 
            </intent-filter>
        </activity>
        <activity android:name=".EntryScreen" android:label="@string/app_name">
        </activity>         
        <activity android:name=".ApplicationName" android:label="@string/app_name">
        </activity>     
    </application>
    <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="3" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"></uses-permission>
</manifest>

Apparently I found out that it works if I manually install the application using command line adb. So, in case you updated your ADT plugin and you experience problems, just install things manually…
