Eclipse ADT (Theme and Icon) is broken after updating Android SDK

Question

after adding new Components (Android SDK Tools and Developer Tools) to Eclipse, the beautiful splashscreen (on startup) and App Icon (in the doc) are gone when I run Eclipse. Right before I start it, the ADT Icon is shown - but after its starting it is changing to the Eclipse Icon. I am running Mac OSX Mountain Lion. (ADT Icon: https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-kcAmqYmpgVM/UKPPGbaJNnI/AAAAAAAAkp0/dp-vtDYvnA0/w248-h248-p/sdk-adt-ide.png)

What can I do to prevent this? Without the different Icons: Its hard to distinguish the different Eclipse Apps running.

Thanks in advance.

EDIT:

ITS FIXED

Answer 1

I struggled with the same thing, but I managed to fix both the app Icon and splash screen on mac.

1. To replace the Icon:

   Go to the package content of the Eclipe ADT. Go to the Resources folder and delete Eclipse.icns. Just to be safe, open the Info.plist and replace Bundle Icon:

   <key>CFBundleIconFile</key>
           <string>adt.icns</string>
   

2. Now to replace the Splash Screen:

One quick way is to search inside the /plugins folder for "splash". You'll see the ADP splash and the Eclipse one. Since they are on different folders, just copy the adt splash screen image and replace over the eclipse one.

Finished, now you got your old ADT appearance back.

In addition to the previous posts before (thanks at this point) I will now post the official responses here (from the forum link I posted up there).

currently there is no propper solution but a workaround (last paragraph)

Apologies to all of you for the delay in fixing this. I am waiting on Eclipse to release 4.2 SR2 before updating ADT's Eclipse version to be 4.2.2. According to http://wiki.eclipse.org/Juno/Simultaneous_Release_Plan#SR2, 4.2.2 should have been released on 2/22, so I expect it will be out anytime soon.

We have already updated the ADT bundle to include egit by default, so if you are just looking for egit, you shouldn't have to install anything by yourself.

Everyone else, should do the following: - go to Preferences -> Install/Update -> Available Software Sites, and uncheck/remove the Juno update site. - Whenever you install any software, make sure that Eclipse platform 4.2 is not brought in.

In addition to that there is a second post that there is a solution (fix) upcoming with the upcoming release of Eclipse:

With https://android-review.googlesource.com/#/c/53181/1, we are now building with e4 internally. We'll try to make a preview available within a week.

See Comment#29 for workarounds. Most of you should be able to get things working as long as you remove the Juno repository from your list of P2 repositories.

Update:

Date: 10.05.2013
IF YOU HAVE THIS ISSUE TRYING TO INSTALL eGIT
-> eGIT is NOW included in the Bundle on the android developers download site.
Code with fixes still in review - nothing changed on the main problem.

Hope to be helpful at this point. Will edit when things are happening.

I had the same problem after updating to ADT 21.1 in Windows x86, looking around my eclipse config file I found the following directive:

-showsplash
C:\adt-bundle-windows-x86\eclipse\\plugins\org.eclipse.platform_4.2.1.v201209141800\splash.bmp

I navigated there and found the default eclipse splash bmp, I simply replaced it with the ADT splash BMP which I found here:

C:\adt-bundle-windows-x86\eclipse\plugins\com.android.ide.eclipse.adt.package_21.1.0.v201302060044-569685

Upon restarting my browser I had my ADT Splash screen back.
