895748 - default favicon in homescreen is always branded

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

Description

On Gaia master,
The default favicon that homescreen app show for website bookmark is always branded - a grey firefox icon.

Originally, we have unbranded icon, but changed by this commit,
https://github.com/mozilla-b2g/gaia/commit/5b5309d7743639cfeafb29453d02c3962ade2307#diff-15

This issue is to tackle this part to have both branding and non-branding version of this icon.

1. Open browser app.
2. Go to a website without favicon, like http://xmpp.net
3. boomark this website to homescreen.

Hi Peter,

I found from an old bug that you provided the icons for unbranded version.
Do you know if we could get branded version here?

Besides, in order to support hi resolution (Bug 893966), please help provide,

 1. branded version (grey firefox): 
    - 90x90 (1.5x)

 2. unbranded version (a start):
    - 90x90 (1.5x)
    - 120x120 (2x)

Thanks.

The default_favicon has been changed back to unbranded version,

Close this issue for now.

We would implement the branded version if we get a clear request on it.
