How to Update to AWD Launcher 1.0.1 in CM6



1. Open a Web browser, and navigate to the ADW Launcher website (see Resources). Click the download link for ADW Launcher version 1.0.1 to download the application's .apk package file. This package file contains the data required to install the ADW Launcher application, similar to an .EXE file on a Windows computer.

2. Connect the Android smartphone to the computer via the USB connection cable that came with the device, and launch the computer's terminal application. If your computer does not have a default terminal application, PuTTY, WinSCP and OpenSSH are some applications available for download.

3. Type 'adb install -r FileName.pkg' in the terminal window, replacing 'FileName.pkg' with the name of the .pkg file you downloaded in step 1. The package's file name is listed beneath the file's icon. For example, if the file is named 'ADWLauncher.pkg,' you would type 'adb install -r ADWLauncher.pkg.'

4. Press 'Enter' to execute the command. The updated .pkg file will now be installed on the device.
