Default Android Icon

[elloboblanco]

I have tried a number of things to get this to work but I keep getting a blank white square for my push icon.

1. writing a hook to copy a pw_notification.png file into every drawable*
2. passing a path to a local .png file from the Pushwoosh website
3. doing nothing

What am I doing wrong?

        // Initialize Pushwoosh. This will trigger all pending push notifications on start.
        pushwoosh.onDeviceReady({
          appid: 'ABC-123',       // pushwoosh appid
          projectid: 'really-cool-app'   // GCM "project number"
        });

No additional config? This is still not working for me ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Thanks, Will

Hi,

Could it be that your icon was not created according to Android guidelines?

Please refer to the following guide for additional details:

@wfhm I used sips to verify that I don't have any alpha channels (as per http://stackoverflow.com/a/29178945/277079). Any advice?

$ sips -g all icon.png

  pixelWidth: 1024
  pixelHeight: 1024
  typeIdentifier: public.png
  format: png
  formatOptions: lzw
  dpiWidth: 72.000
  dpiHeight: 72.000
  samplesPerPixel: 3
  bitsPerSample: 8
  hasAlpha: no
  space: RGB
  profile: sRGB IEC61966-2.1
  creation: 2016:09:28 21:55:34
  software: Flying Meat Acorn 5.5.1```

@wfhm oh shoot, maybe that is the problem, Android only displays the alpha channel? Am I understanding this properly?

Pushwoosh documented this - http://docs.pushwoosh.com/docs/android-faq#how-to-set-a-notification-icon-in-android-lollipop

The system ignores all non-alpha channels in action icons and in the main notification icon. Assume these icons will be alpha-only. The system draws notification icons in white and action icons in dark gray. This is beyond Pushwoosh SDK control.
