Retrieve hidensity drawable from package (honeycomb)

Question

This code

final ApplicationInfo ai = getPackageManager().getApplicationInfo("com.company.hello", 0);
final Drawable d = getPackageManager().getApplicationIcon(ai);

retreive a 48x48 (mdpi) drawable even on my hidensity HoneyComb device.

Given that I can enlarge the drawable by Bitmap.createScaledBitmap, I'm asking how to extract the hi density icon that is already there. The method getDrawableForDensity is not available for sdk < 15, but I'm not happy to invoke a scaling function for each icon I've to draw when it is available in the package for free.

Edit for bounty

forgetting for a while my device display density the question is the following: given a own package for which we know for sure to have a 72x72 icon in the relative hdpi res folder, how to extract this icon from another package?

THIS FUNCTION is not available on Honeycomb environment.

Answer 1

to find your drawable directlyy with the good density, you have just to try this :

mContext.getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.mydrawable);

what is the problem? If android get you a 48x48 icon, it's that the good icon or, you haven't set icon in the good res/drawable- folder.
