Just to be sure we're talking about the same thing…

You are talking about the "needs-shine" key in the manifest plist, right? That setting determines whether the icon displayed in the home screen (items > assets > kind > display-image) gets the shine effect, _while the app is downloading_.

This is different from the UIPrerenderedIcon key in Info.plist, which determines whether the icon is given a shine _after_ the app is installed.

The setting of the one, of course, would not affect the other.
