Android Question Activity.AddMenuItem2

[Devv]

why it does not view an icon in the menu ?

Sub Activity_Create(FirstTime As Boolean)
    Activity.LoadLayout("main")
    x = 0
    If FirstTime = True Then
        speedtest.Initialize("speedtest")
        speedtest.FileName = "speedtest.jpg"
        speedtest.Directory = File.DirInternalCache
        speedtest.Download("http://download.linnrecords.com/test/mp3/recit.aspx")
    End If
    job1.Initialize("Job1", Me)
    enter = False
    feature = False
    Activity.AddMenuItem2("test","about",LoadBitmap(File.DirAssets,"actions-help-about-icon.png"))
End Sub

i included the png in the attached files, it is 36*36
any ideas ?

Is this the only menuitem or do you have more than this one?
Maybe more than 5 (or 6 if there are 6 total)

From the documentation:
Only the first five (or six if there are six total) menu items display icons.

i have 6 items but non of them is displayed any icon
i tried single items alone without success
it seems like a bug?

It depends on the Android version. Starting from Android 4 (holo theme) there are no menu icons. You should use AddMenuItem3 instead and the icons will be added to the action bar.

what theme i could use to make the icons appear ?

Activity.AddMenuItem3("test","about",LoadBitmap(File.DirAssets,"about.png"),true)
