[android] Android: How to change the ActionBar "Home" Icon to be something other than the app icon?

Inspired by TheIT, I just got this to work by manipulating the manifest file but in a slightly different fashion. Set the icon in the application setting so that the majority of the activities get the icon. On the activity where you want to show the logo, add the android:logo attribute to the activity declaration. In the following example, only LogoActivity should have the logo, while the others will default to icon.

<application
    android:name="com.your.app"
    android:icon="@drawable/your_icon"
    android:label="@string/app_name">

    <activity
        android:name="com.your.app.LogoActivity"
        android:logo="@drawable/your_logo"
        android:label="Logo Activity" >

    <activity
        android:name="com.your.app.IconActivity1"
        android:label="Icon Activity 1" >

    <activity
        android:name="com.your.app.IconActivity2"
        android:label="Icon Activity 2" >

</application>

Hope this helps someone else out!
