"A bug in the new "Adaptive Icons" feature introduced in Android Oreo has
sent thousands of phones into infinite boot loops, forcing some users to
reset their devices to factory settings, causing users to lose data along
the way."

"The bug first manifested itself when the developer of the Swipe for
Facebook Android app accidentally renamed the foreground image of his
adaptive icon with the same name as this XML file (ic_launcher_main.png and
ic_launcher_main.xml)."
