Thanks for your icons...
try to put it on /usr/share/applications/

Code:

[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Name=Angry Birds Rio
Categories=Games;
Exec=/usr/bin/meego-terminal -n -e devel-su -c "cd /home/user/apkenv && ./apkenv abr.apk"
Icon=/home/user/apkenv/abr80.png

Ok this variation:
I mean:

Code:

Exec=/usr/bin/meego-terminal -n -e devel-su user -c "cd /home/user/apkenv && ./apkenv <apk file>"

If still not work, try to create script

Code:

#!/bin/sh

cd /home/user/apkenv && ./apkenv <apk file>

And run it:

Code:

Exec=/usr/bin/meego-terminal -n -e devel-su user -c "/path/to/script.sh"

Code:

Exec=/usr/bin/meego-terminal -n -e /path/to/script.sh

Got it to work with the shell trick:

/home/user/apkenv/run.sh

Code:

#!/bin/sh
cd /home/user/apkenv/

case "$1" in
'fruitninja')
./apkenv /home/user/MyDocs/Downloads/Fruit_Ninja_v.1.5.4.apk;;
'angrybirdsspace')
./apkenv /home/user/MyDocs/Downloads/Angry_Birds_Space_Premium_1.0.1.apk;;
esac

fruit_ninja.desktop:

Code:

[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Version=1.5.4
Type=Application
Terminal=false
Exec=sh /home/user/apkenv/run.sh fruitninja
Name=Fruit Ninja
Icon=/home/user/apkenv/Icons/fn80.png

angry_birds_space.desktop

Code:

[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Version=1.0.1
Type=Application
Terminal=false
Exec=sh /home/user/apkenv/run.sh angrybirdsspace
Name=Angry Birds Space
Icon=/home/user/apkenv/Icons/abs80.png

place two desktop file into /usr/share/applications/
apk file to MyDocs/Downloads and now I can run them from homescreen without root access. My script didn't work before because I placed the desktop files into /home/user/.local/share/applications
