User reported the app installed as "FT8CN" with the FT8CN icon and FT8 not opening. Root causes (verified by aapt badging on the release APK): 1. module values/strings.xml carried <string name="app_name">FT8CN which won the resource merge -> application-label became FT8CN. Removed it; dialogs that referenced R.string.app_name now use a module-local ft8cn_app_name (HelpDialog/ClearCacheDataDialog). 2. module shipped its own mipmap ic_launcher* (8 files) which overrode our launcher icon -> deleted all of them. 3. MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity but the module's <application> lost android:theme when the conflicting attributes were stripped -> startup crash. Re-added android:theme=Theme.Ft8CN (MaterialComponents) on the module application element. Verified: processReleaseManifest/Resources + ft8 javac + app kotlin BUILD SUCCESSFUL.
