This is a simple question, but I can’t seem to find a definite answer to this.

How do I set my Application Icon (the one that appears in the menu)

enter image description here

to one that matches the accent color? Currently the only way is to overwrite ApplicationIcon.jpg, but jpgs do not have transparency

Edit:

This is what I used to get it to work. Copy the .png file over, then rename it to .jpg. It has to be exactly the same name or you will get an error 2 xap packaging failed.

    Use a PNG image instead. Any transparent background will use the phone accent colour. See the discussion here:
