570514 - Need status bar icons for Android

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

[Alex Pakhotin (:alexp)]

Apparently we can show only the icons from our application resources, so we need some generic ones for download, add-on installation, etc.
We need to decide what types of notifications we should have, and create the icons for them.

The guidelines are here: http://developer.android.com/guide/practices/ui_guidelines/icon_design.html#statusbarapx
The required dimensions are: 48x48 for a high density screen, and 32x32 for a medium density screen.

The icons are supposed to be at the following locations (Makefile from the bug 569402 will be grabbing them from there):

Medium density (32x32):
mobile/app/android/drawable/alertaddons.png
mobile/app/android/drawable/alertdownloads.png

High density (48x48):
mobile/app/android/drawable-hdpi/alertaddons.png
mobile/app/android/drawable-hdpi/alertdownloads.png

The real icons used in Android seem to be different from the size chart in the documentation:
http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/frameworks/base.git;a=tree;f=core/res/res/drawable-hdpi;h=6e54b40a4b136aaa68016fd6ea1da16d9a9f8724;hb=HEAD
http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/frameworks/base.git;a=tree;f=core/res/res/drawable-mdpi;h=6e54b40a4b136aaa68016fd6ea1da16d9a9f8724;hb=HEAD

stat_*.png are the ones used for the status bar.

HDPI: image file size: 38x38, the actual drawing size: 32x32
MDPI: image file size: 25x25, the actual drawing size: 21x21

- solid glyphs as smaller outline glyphs seemed blurry, will check with Madhava about consistency concerns

As mentioned above the icons provided will need to be submitted to the following locations in mobile-browser repository:

Medium density (25x25):
app/android/drawable/alertaddons.png
app/android/drawable/alertdownloads.png

High density (38x38):
app/android/drawable-hdpi/alertaddons.png
app/android/drawable-hdpi/alertdownloads.png
