Hopefully you have figured out what the problem is. I can't say I fully understand it.
But one thing is sure with "onNewIntent()". I have looked at it when I was configuring an activity on behalf of "search" functionality. This method is invoked ONLY IF this activity is on top of the visible stack. That means if you are navigating somewhere else to invoke your icons, and if this activity is not on top because of that, then the "onNewIntent()" is not invoked. Typically if this activity is to invoke itself for whatever reason, or a service is to invoke it while it is on top then you will see the "onNewIntent()".
