The Ubuntu logo for the app-grid icon appears to be a bug and was fixed in the yaru-theme git repository:

https://github.com/ubuntu/yaru/pull/4068

[Erich Eickmeyer (eeickmeyer)]

Oops, something's not quite right here. Fixing...

[Marco Trevisan (Treviño) (3v1n0)]

FYI we're going to provide a way to override this by defining a new gnome shell session (you can inherit the ubuntu one) and the icon should be named `view-app-grid-${currentMode}-symbolic` e.g. `view-app-grid-edubuntu-symbolic`, otherwise the default (view-app-grid-symbolic) will be used

[Erich Eickmeyer (eeickmeyer)]

That sounds wonderful, but we use the ubuntu session currently and it's too late to change that. Therefore, we'll have to just do a `dpkg-divert` `view-app-grid-ubuntu-symbolic` now, which means my existing `dpkg-divert` of `view-app-grid-symbolic` will need to change and I need to go back to the drawing board a bit. Not a huge issue, just minor inconvenience since I just uploaded that fix.

  * Install and divert app grid icon correctly (LP: #2060816)
    Also uses new naming nomenclature to work with new dock
    bugfixes as described in conversation in aforementioned
    bug report where the default app grid icon is being replaced
    by an Ubuntu icon. That icon is then diverted here for an
    Edubuntu icon. Discussions also took place on Matrix
    for clarification.

  [ Muqtadir ]
  * Sync with `org.gnome.Settings` symbolic icons changes
  * add org.gnome.Nautilus* symbolic icons and revert app-grid icon
    (LP: #2062046)

  [ Muqtxdir ]
  * add @ubuntujaggers refined app-center fullcolor icon (no visual changes)

  [ Marco Trevisan (Treviño) ]
  * gtk/common: Sync with upstream fixes
  * icons: Remove start-here-symbolic symlink that was breaking view-app-grid.
  * icons: Add view-app-grid-ubuntu-symbolic symlink to start-here
    (LP: #2060816).
  * gnome-shell/dock: Use more visible background on highlighted icons
    (LP: #2061729)
  * gnome-shell/dock: Draw focused icons with highlight background
    (LP: #2062044)
  * icons: Re-render icons and regenerate symlinks
  * debian/control: Add Breaks on ubuntu-dock << 90~
    It doesn't really break it but if we'd release this version of the icon
    theme before of the new dock, we'd end up changing the dock's show-apps
    icon, breaking the UI freeze (related to lp:2060816).

I updated to the last version and the icon went back to the grid. I'm using pure Ubuntu Noble.

[Marco Trevisan (Treviño) (3v1n0)]

Marcos,

Are you sure that you're running the latest version of the yaru-icon-theme *and* of the ubuntu-dock?

Also are you running the ubuntu session?

If one of these conditions aren't met, then the normal icon will be shown.

[Erich Eickmeyer (eeickmeyer)]

Same thing happened to me, but as soon as I logged-out and in after the update it went to the Ubuntu logo or, in the case of Edubuntu, the Edubuntu logo.

[Marcos Alano (mhalano)]

Sorry, false alarm. I just did a reboot after an apt full-upgrade and the icon is being shown. It's a pretty icon, btw. (:
