Default Change Facebook Icon

I found the cutest facebook icon for a theme I'm working on but I don't know how I would go about putting it on there in place of the regular icon for facebook? Anyone know how?

It cannot be done. Facebook is a third party application, which means you have no control over the icon.

What you could do is add the icon to the home screen as a graphic, and have that graphic launch Facebook on "focusin" or "activate", but it wouldn't change the icon anywhere else on the device.

There is a fancy little app you can get for yourself called MagicIcon which allows you to change the icons for third party app (throughout entire device, not just homescreen) however, this only benefits you, not the consumers of the themes you make.

I love the app because I primarily make themes just for myself, so it allows me to fully customize every icon to match that of my themes
