Description

With the latest cordova-android v6.0.0 release, which is pinned to cordova v6.4.0, custom app icons and splash screens no longer work.

It appears as though the custom app icons and splash screens are copied into the ./res folder and not into the ./platforms/android/res folder.

Others have mentioned the same bug - please refer to the comments at the bottom of your blog post announcement of the cordova-android v6.0.0 release (http://cordova.apache.org/announcements/2016/10/24/android-release.html).

My config.xml file refers to the app icons & splash screens as follows:

<platform name="android">
<allow-intent href="market:*" />
<icon src="icon/android/icon-ldpi.png" density="ldpi"/>
<icon src="icon/android/icon-mdpi.png" density="mdpi"/>
<icon src="icon/android/icon-hdpi.png" density="hdpi"/>
<icon src="icon/android/icon-xhdpi.png" density="xhdpi"/>
<icon src="icon/android/icon-xxhdpi.png" density="xxhdpi"/>
<icon src="icon/android/icon-xxxhdpi.png" density="xxxhdpi"/>
<splash src="screen/android/splash-land-ldpi.9.png" density="land-ldpi"/>
