Windows CE doesn't contain a shell icon cache, so it's not deisnged in the same way as Windows. To change the application shortcut of any icon (bar the 4.5 shell folders) you have to change it in the executive - or I would summise write a middleware layer to capture the GWES handle and change it.

If you really want to do it you can create an exe with the icon you want which launchs the application. The trouble with this is size and additional load time. Not really worth it for a few icons.
