When using cli-6.0.0 the app icon and splash screen on iOS are replaced with the default cordova ones. Not reproducible on 5.2.0. Maybe it's related to https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse... ?

@Charles I think this issue https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse... reported by @ColinBau is the problem. It does not look like it's gotten any traction.

I am using some plugins and would have to use other versions. But I am not the only one with the problem, which seems to be a bug in the build process since months. I think this bug should be corrected, all pgb apps would show a wrong taskmanager icon on iphone 6+ (29x29@3x).

If your only issue is the icon, then you must wait. Yes, there are issues. It always best to look at the bug repositories on this.
If you had read the thread, you would know there is a bug report. And if you had check the bug repository, you will see this has been reported since July of last year.
Beyond that you can assist, by creating a bug report, adding to the bug report, or letting others know there is a bug report. A one-liner resolves nothing except your tantrum.
Best of Luck

@jesse: I am not here to get told, what i made wrong, sorry. I know that it is a bug in pgb, the problem is that hundreds of phonegap build users are wasting their time, analyzing a problem which is known since months. As a developer of commercial apps, this simple bug makes pgb absolutely useless... Yes, it is only an icon, but not explainable to customers. I think, that the time we both used to discuss this issue would have been enough, to get the bug out of pgb.

I understand your frustration. You have six (6) courses of action.
1) creating a new bug report
2) add comment to an existing bug report
3) create a test app by which this bug can be recreated and test with a fix
4) let others know about this bug
5) use CLI, and apply an ad-hoc fix
6) wait till the Cordoa/PGB team fixes this
Make your choice, let me know if you need help.

At (6): might take a year, or so. That's about common for trouble like this.
See for instance https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse...

I'm new around here and only ever had one very simple PGB/cordova app, but just digging in b/c I was having the same issue where the 29x29@3.png icon is showing the default.
As a sanity check I forked and reproduced this issue from a PGB minimal-app project I found. Can an expert take a look and see if everything looks correct? Maybe there's something odd that only certain users (including myself) are doing.
https://github.com/jkhax0r/minimal-app
As you can see if you open up the resulting PGB ipa as a zip, the AppIcon29x29@3.png shows the default robot icon. All others work. Same thing happened on my personal app, but I did copy my original directory structure so maybe I'm just doing something stupid.
Thanks!

I went to your github's "minimal app" and had a look, but I'm not quite sure what you are feeding to PGB.
If you send this content (including /res, /www and two files (readme and .gitignore) to PGB, it won't find your icons. If you created a zip file, it would be helpful to see it.
Phonegap Build (since yesterday the default version is 'cli-6.3.0', btw) expects a zip file or github repo with this structure:
/index.html
/config.xml
/icon.png
/myIconsSplashes/...
/myScripts/...
etc
In other words: index, config and default icon must be in the root directory. All other files, including your icons and splashes, may be in the root directory or in any subdirectory under that root.
That said, I don't really know if there is a specific problem with the 29x29@3 icon, and if so, whether or not that problem still exists in the latest version of PGB.

Thanks for the reply. I zipped the root and sent to PGB. It did find all the icons and config.xml, except for the 29x29@3.
This structure and process is what I have done for 2+ years now (not sure where I learned it), so maybe this came from some old documentation/project and it still works for legacy stuff but partially broken on new. Sounds promising!... and I can definitely see how this difference could cause some issues locating a file (although its odd that all the others work).
Sorry at my day-job now, but I'll update that github project to this new directory structure and try again tonight and give an update. I think I just need to move /res/ into /www/ and then zip /www/ instead. Interestingly I don't think the file locations in the config.xml file will change, which further points out the potential conflict locating files with my current structure. Maybe the issue here is rather that all the other icons work!
