I've tried many things, favicon.ico is 16x16 I've tried png images but no luck there, funny thing is that my website used to have the same looking icon but I changed a lot of stuff there and now it just does not work.

I never encountered it, but i always have fall backs in the system.
As a side note, the safari browsers handles things different, thus the extra apple touch icon, plus it looks better when you save the website on an Iphone / Ipad or any other Apple device that allows it as a shortcut.
I have icons in several sizes so i do have a fall back, in the worst case, i refer back to the manifest, which is pretty much a json string that helps with icons on android and chrome as far as i know.
as example.
