I wouldn't even bother caring about changing the application's icon
when it isn't running. You aren't supposed to make changes to the
bundle, and there's no service anywhere that will allow a user to see
a different icon on the bundle in the Finder.
From an end-user perspective, it's a bit of a usability concern,
anyway. If you change the bundle's icon, and another user looks at
it, the second user will see the first user's change, which is likely
incorrect from said second user's perspective.

My problem is, when I am in disconnected mode and I quit the
application, I see the same icon on the screen as my application
icon.
I do change the icon on close with
[NSApp setApplicationIconImage:[NSImage imageNamed:@"AppIcon"]];
but it blinks for a second and again comes down to the
disconnected state icon.
This API call is only intended to change the image displayed in
the dock while your app is running. It's not guaranteed to stick
around after you've quit your application, and it won't change the
icon the Finder displays. If it works for you beyond your app's
lifetime, you're just getting lucky (maybe the dock is cacheing the
icon and the cache doesn't get cleared right away).
