I had this problem too. I had a .app i wanted to change the icon of.

Structure of my .app:

  • ...noida.app/
    • ...noida.app/Contents/
      • ...
    • ...noida.app/Contents/Resources
      • ...noida.app/Contents/Resources/myicon.icns
    • ...noida.app/Contents/MacOS
      • ...
    • ...noida.app/Contents/plist.Info

Now I would change the icon in the resources folder. Then I made new files in all folders. It wouldn't work. The only place that i could make a new file tha twould update the icon was in the ...noida.app/ so i made new file at ...noida.app/junk folder and then it updated.

Very interesting.
