1. Get http://mozilla.github.io/qa-testcase-data/webapi/apps/smallappcachepreload.manifest and host it on your own HTTP server
2. Install the app by pointing to your self-hosted manifest via you browser
3. To simulate an app update, in the the mini-manifest, modify:
"appcache_path": "*value*" to "appcache_path": "http://mozilla.github.io/qa-testcase-data/webapi/apps/largeappcachepreload." 
"icons": {*value*} to "icons": { "126": "your_new_icon_path.png"
4. Check for new version and wait until the notification pop.
5. Update the app.
6. Wait for the app to be downloaded.
7. Go back to the homescreen.

Actual result
The app is updated but not its icon, until a phone restart.

Not blocking because we've shipped with this problem before, even though it did work at one point.
