Well, nearly every form runs Lan.F(this) in the constructor. The purpose of that method is to translate everything on the form. It looks like that would also be a convenient time to change the icon. You would use a plug-in.

Hi
The icon i want to change is the one that appears at the task bar when you launch OD. Once the main app form is loaded, the icon appears in the main taks bar, how can i change it?

Are you building a plugin or are you interested in just compiling and not receiving our releases?
