Answer 1

You need to create a icon named ic_stat_onesignal_default in your drawables directory which will be shown instead of OneSignal's default bell icon. It is recommend to use the Android Asset Studio to create the correct sizes and to make sure it will look correct before trying it on your device.

Note the app icon should no longer be used as a small notification icon as in Android 5.0 Lollipop the icon's alpha will only be used. Most app icons will just be a white squire or circle in this case.

See OneSignal's documentation page below for more details. https://documentation.onesignal.com/docs/customize-notification-icons

Answer 2

You must create icons for the following sizes:

drawable-hdpi/ic_stat_one_signal_default.png

drawable-mdpi/ic_stat_one_signal_default.png

drawable-xhdpi/ic_stat_one_signal_default.png

drawable-xxhdpi/ic_stat_one_signal_default.png

drawable-xxxhdpi/ic_onesignal_large_icon_default.png

Note that the name for size drawable-xxxhdpi is different.

I recommend creating icons with Android Asset Studio or from Android Studio->app->Image Asset to be sure to have the icons for different android versions.

If you want to have two icons type, one for notification area and one for notification drawer you must do the following:

1.- Create the same image icon for different sizes: mdpi, hdpi, xhdpi, xxhpi called: ic_stat_one_signal_default

2.- Create a different image icon for size xxxhdpi called: ic_onesignal_large_icon_default

Looks like: Icon - Notification area/drawer
