But I have also changed the app icon and that has not changed, do I have to download it separately. Pete.

In BTv2.0 it's in the drawable folder. Recommend you read Buzztouch Source Code BTv2.0 found in my guide www.MySkylla.com Fred Comments You can simply replace the icon.png in the source code.

I don't think it's as simple as replacing the icon in the res>drawable folder. Mark Comments If you change the app icon, you need to download the source code again and recompile.

(Ouch) And, yes, it's that simple. You may wish to (if you haven't already) replace the icon in the control Panel, but that's just so you'll see the most current icon in the Control Panel. So, like Nancy Regan said, 'Just say No! to source code re-downloads'. And yes, you must recompile, since any change to the source code requires such.
