Hi,

you should add an ICON directive in symbian section:

@
symbian {
ICON = app.svg
}
@

The file must be a SVG file. If you want to use PNG anyway, you can convert it using "this method":http://www.leonardorisuleo.info/blog/2009/11/how-to-use-png-as-symbian-application-icon-instead-of-svg/

Hi,

where do i have to implement that?

[tony]

In your .pro file. You should already have a "symbian" section.

I did, but now my phone can't show any icons in my "programs" folder.
It looks like an empty folder.
Is there something else to do?? Maybe size?

Setting the Application Icon on the Symbian platform

In order to set the application icon for Symbian platform applications, you need an SVG-T icon. For information on how to create SVG-T compliant icons, please refer to "ref":http://wiki.forum.nokia.com/index.php/How_to_create_application_icon(SVG)_in_S60_3rd_edition/

Once the icon is available in the correct format and assuming you are using qmake to generate your makefiles, you only need to add a single line to your .pro project file. For example, if the name of your icon file is myapp.svg, and your project file is myapp.pro, add this line to myapp.pro:

ICON = myapp.svg
