Add new icon for the push notification in Phonegap

I use the phonegap-plugin-push plugin in mine Phonegap app, and I want to set a different icon instead of the used logo app, for the push notification. Following the documentations I do it with this code; anyway this not work, it always use the app icon instead of the new one that I want.

var push = PushNotification.init({
    "android": {
        "senderID": "xxx",
        "icon": "ic_stat_icon"
    }
});

I put my ic_stat_icon.png image in the platform/android/res folder

I've spent the whole afternoon on this problem - done everything that it says in the Push Plugin documentation and more - and it appears that putting an extra tag in your Android manifest fixes the problem:

<meta-data android:name="com.google.firebase.messaging.default_notification_icon"
    android:resource="@drawable/icontrans" />

... where icontrans is the name of my icon.

For reference, I also put the icons into each of the res/drawable folders using the following in my config.xml:

    <resource-file src="res/icon/icon-18-trans.png" target="res/drawable-ldpi/icontrans.png" />
    <resource-file src="res/icon/icon-24-trans.png" target="res/drawable-mdpi/icontrans.png" />
    <resource-file src="res/icon/icon-36-trans.png" target="res/drawable-hdpi/icontrans.png" />
    <resource-file src="res/icon/icon-48-trans.png" target="res/drawable-xhdpi/icontrans.png" />
    <resource-file src="res/icon/icon-72-trans.png" target="res/drawable-xxhdpi/icontrans.png" />
    <resource-file src="res/icon/icon-96-trans.png" target="res/drawable-xxxhdpi/icontrans.png" />

Not sure if it's something to do with the later platforms (I'm targeting SDK 26) or the fact I'm using Firebase to send the notifications.

Try putting your image in platform/android/res/drawable.

I don't know if it's necessary but you can try also put your images in the others drawables folders (drawable-ldpi, drawable-mdpi, drawable-hdpi, etc).
