Situation:

After the upload of the first version App Build Version into MobileFirst Quality Assurance the App Icon changes to the Icon with is used for the application inside iOS or Android.
The observation is that ICON does not change, even when the upload of new builds of the App which contains a new ICON.

Question:
How can I change the ICON for the App inside MobileFirst Quality Assureance?
My question is very simple: Inside MobileFirst Quality Assureance you have a App list http://[YOURSERVER]/companies/2/application/list/.
How can you change the ICON for a APP in the MFQA server?

MobileFirst Quality Assurance will show the icon that was added to the app. It does not provide a way to change the icon in the All Apps console.

How to change App Center Secret key at runtime as I change environment in the react-native app

I change my environment from testing to staging in the react native app at runtime & I want the crash logs to be stored in different paths in app center based on the environment I'm into. How can I manage to change the app center secret key whenever I change the environment in the app?
I tried different links but nothing worked for me.

Is there any proteus (runtime layout engine) version of react-native?

proteus is basically a runtime layout engine for Android developed by Indian e-commerce Flipkart.
Basically, I want to be able to control my home screen & Support Screen of the app from a backend server, so that I don't have to push every for every small change and also I don't want to use web views (we all know the limitations)
I don't think such a tool exists but you should look into Firebase, specifically the remote config module. It allows you to set parameters from your backend which can then be read on your mobile app, at every launch for example. This would allow you to set custom values for any variable you might need on these screens.
You could also look into AppCenter by Microsoft. It is a service which lets you deploy app updates over the air instantly, without going through the App Store and Play Store review processes. The only downside is that you can't push updates containing native code as your app needs to be re-bundled.

Why is app icon missing for toast notifications in action center on desktop?

I'm developing an app that uses toast notifications to notify the user. These notifications are raised when the app is running in the background and go to the notification center.
All is well, but on desktop the app icon is missing for the notification group. When testing the app on Windows 10 Mobile the icon is there.
(Note: Shown above is the notification group for an app named "Calendar Activity", not the actual notification.)
Why is the app icon missing in the desktop's action center?
Here are some details about my assets:
I used the UWP Tile Generator to generate every asset you can configure in the app manifests 'Visual Assets' section. The files names look like this:
Toast notifications are generated using the UWP Community Toolkit classes, if that matters. So I'm not constructing the XML myself.
What am I missing? What is different between desktop and mobile regarding the notification group icons? Why is the notification icon missing on desktop?
(Win 10 Anniversary, SDK 10.0.14393.0, latest official update level for desktop and mobile (no Insider))
This is a know issue for desktop:
This is a known bug with the Anniversary Update (Version 1607). It only affects your app when deployed locally from Visual Studio. Your app will work correctly when deployed as a release package (like when installed from the Store). - Source

Windows 8 App with Share contract only

Is it possible to create an app that "only" shows while using Share charm? I do not want the fullscreen app to be opened via live tile as there is no content to be displayed. I want it to be displayed only through Share charm.
No, it is not possible for an app to be shown only as a Share target. All Windows Store apps have a tile on the Start Screen that can be used to launch the app.

Questions about Sencha Touch

I have done some project using Sencha Touch -> www.estof.net/sencha (php + sencha). I want to ask you guys some questions:
a) I want to create app using sencha and upload to iPad. My app will work only if i connected to wifi or whatever internet?
b) For example i did some application, draw icon. Can I put it on iPad? Then click on icon and my application will work? (will be nice if app tried even to connect to Internet, but APP ICON will be on iPad)
c) Or sencha using only as a web-site?
Sencha apps can work in offline mode. This is done by using a manifest file to cache the required files. This will explain more about it. This is another tutorial using phone gap.
Yes you can create app icons for your apps. In this link, you can see an attribute named 'icon' which specifies the images to be used as the icon. In safari when you take your site, and press the option button on the bottom, there is an option to 'ADD to Home Screen'. This option will add the icon to the home screen.
If you go to the sencha forums and check their showcase section you can see many apps that are actually sold in the app store.
The upcoming version of Sencha is said to have their own api's to access native feature of a phone os. Its more detailed on their website.
