Android Question how can get apk file icon

[khosrwb]

I will build file manager
I will find apk icon and show it for apk file
this apk file ( application ) isn't install
there is a way?

I know this :
packagemanager
but my probllem is this : I haven't package
there is a way to find package name? ( for uninstalled app _ this app is in sd card)

maybe opening apk file as zip file, and seach into res folder...

thanks DonManfred
but I will find app icon (( not installed app ))
in this link , we can find installed app icon and we can find app icon when we have app package name .
I haven't package name . there is a way to find packge name (( not installed app ))

Private Sub ShowInstalledApps
   Dim pm As PackageManager  'phone library
   For Each pck As String In pm.GetInstalledPackages
     pm.GetApplicationLabel("packagename")
     Log(name)
   Next
End Sub
