I'm trying to figure out how i can implement this code into my existing source code. Currently i have some source that displays a list-view of all the installed apps and on-click will send intent to the application. I'm needing some support on how to pull the icon and add this into the list view.
Any help, source code editing, links, etc would help me resolve this.
Thank you
