[How-to] Add Play Store shortcut in Intex Aqua Fish

Put the .png file in /var/lib/apkd so the final path becomes this

/var/lib/apkd/apkd_launcher_com_android_vending-com_android_vending_AssetBrowserActivity.png

Put the .desktop file in /usr/share/applications so the final path becomes this

/usr/share/applications/apkd_launcher_com_android_vending-com_android_vending_AssetBrowserActivity.desktop

Open app drawer
