Got the same problem but with a jailbroken phone. In my case this happens because I ssh (use ssh to transfer file) the directory "myAppName".app straight into the device's file system (/Applications).

Gloss effect is applied and corners get automatically rounded when the app is installed via MobileInstallation - in other words iTunes, Xcode or App Store.

Sadly i have not found a free of charge solution yet. So if this is a critical problem i suggest you should buy the IOS developer licence.

Check that you haven't got UIPrerenderedIcon set in your plist file. This let's you turn the rounded corners/shine off if you want to do it yourself.

There's a little info on this option here:
