The Idea:
was to have an icon on my home screen that would bring up an unread rss feed item. I made this work by making a home screen item of a random page, then accessing this sshing into the var/mobile/library/webapps. From there I edited the info.plist file and inserted "http://www.google.com/reader/next?go=nextauto&t=-7060348931587529136".( This can be found in google reader by going to settings, then goodies. It basically just redirects you to the first new feed form your list.) Anyways, with a respiring i got this working perfectly. From there i went on to change the icon to a nice orange rss icon. Works great but the...
Problem is:
When i change the icon it changes upon the first respiring but upon going to a feed item with its own (needs to be custom) icon it automatically sets that icon as the rss bookmark's icon. When i looked into the info.plist file again i saw that the icon location was set to the location of the site visited. I tried removing the entire part of the info.string file but same problem.
So
I am looking for help from anyone that has a solution to this. The two options i see are finding a way to stop it from adapting the pages icon and making a small app that simply opens that URL(I Have no experience building apps though).
Thanks for all you help. If you have any questions please contact me.
