Hi to all have anyone find a way to change the icons of the apps using ios 6 without jailbreaking?

I used to do it opening the ipa file with winrar and copying the new png but that doesnt seen to work anyone since when i am syncing the app i get a error at the end, using ifunbox or iexplorer doesnt since to work anyone since when i copy the new png the file doesnt seen to change at all

So have anyone find a alternative to this?

Thanks

Extract the IPSW & recompile could be an option. It's limited to A4 devices & below. I managed to extract 6.1 before the jailbreak was released via Terminal on my Mac.
