Android notification always appear to show the default ic_popup_reminder (bell-like) icon regardless

I have setup the local notifications and they work really well with the Ionic framework. Within my Ionic Ready block I have the following code in which I have set the icon image (I am using this image http://sciactive.com/pnotify/includes/github-icon.png)

As the path is relative to the app.js file, the image is up a level within a folder called ‘img’ and the file is called ‘github-icon.png’.

For some reason the same ‘bell’ default icon always appears?? Is this a bug? I am using Android 6.0.1 on my Nexus 5.

$scope.scheduleSingleNotification = function () {
      $cordovaLocalNotification.schedule({
        id: 1,
        title: 'Warning',
        text: 'my first notification!',
        icon: 'file://img/logo.png',
      }).then(function (result) {
        console.log('Notification #1 triggered');
      });
    };

It took me a loooooong time but I think I have it completely under control! My relevant notification options are: { icon: 'file://assets/icon/notification_icon.png', smallIcon: 'res://ic_notification_icon_large' } The first is a 128x128 icon in /src/assets/icon/notification_icon.png (it’s the one you see when you pull down the notification area) - I have tried several other sizes and this seemed the correct one. The second (the res:// one) is actually a set of icons that I prepared with http://romannurik.github.io/AndroidAssetStudio/ using asset size = 24dp. The result is a handy zip containing a single “res” folder - just copy this folder in your /platforms/android folder so that it merges with the existing “res” folder there, and voilà, all the properly resized icons are there.

@gilvandev, where is your file located, in the /platforms/android/ project? Are you familiar with the structure of Android projects? When you specify with res://, that means the url needs to point to a file in the platforms/android/res/ folder, but also split into the various DPI resolutions folders (drawable-xhdpi, drawable-hdpi, etc). Furthermore, because of the way android has setup it’s ‘drawable’ resources, you don’t add the filetype extension.

Example: you set the icon to “res://alerticon”, and android will determine the screen density of the device running your app (lets say it is xhdpi), then it looks in the res/drawable-xhdpi/ folder for any file named “alerticon”, and finds your icon as alerticon.png. If it doesn’t find it in the “correct” density folder, it will look in all the other density folders for the closest match, finally looking in res/drawable/.

I have a script hook to copy my icon into the correct folders, that runs on the after_platform_add cordova hook, to copy them from my www folder into the correct res folder.

TLDR: res:// won’t find files in the www folder
