iOS Build shows black app icon?

[LoganRockz]

Hello...

I've finished my application and made my icons. The retina icon is 114x114 png. When I build it and test it on my device, the icon comes out black 😕! Here's a screenshot:

Also, as a sidenote, could anyone tell me how to remove the 'gloss-effect' on my icons? (Xcode 4.2).

Is your 114X114 icon named "Icon@2x.png"? I like to add all the icons to my info.plist for good measure. Also in your info.plist you can add a row for "Icon already includes gloss effects". Check the box to leave the gloss off.

How have you added your app icon to your project?

The app icon is working now but when I make the new line in Info.plist about the 'icon already includes gloss effect' it does not change the icon! 🙁

From StackOverflow:

Are you developing/running on iOS 5? Because the new Info.plist structure for iOS 5 has a new entry with the same key (UIPrerenderedIcon) which is placed in a sub dictionary along with the icon file names. You should still include the original UIPrerenderedIcon key in the root of the Info.plist for iOS 4 and earlier.
