Bear in mind  this is a practice that Google explicitly advises not to do      Warning  Because these resources can   change between platform versions  you   should not reference these icons using   the Android platform resource IDs    i e  menu icons under   android R drawable     Rather  you are adviced to make a local copy      If you want to use any icons or other internal drawable resources  you   should store a local copy of those icons or drawables in your   application resources  then reference the local copy from your   application code  In that way  you can maintain control over the   appearance of your icons  even if the system s copy changes
