Install the Launcher App

Download this launcher app for e-ink screen, suggested by shankerzhiwu.

Install via adb (below is just an example):

adb install -r E-Ink-Launcher_0.1.6.apk

Modify the Default DPLauncher

The following will overwrite any changes you have made to DPLauncher before.

Download the launcher_mod.tar.gz from here.

On PC terminal:

adb push launcher_mod.tar.gz /sdcard/launcher_mod.tar.gz
adb shell mount -o rw,remount /system
adb shell rm -rf /etc/dp_extensions
adb shell busybox tar -xvzf /sdcard/launcher_mod.tar.gz -C /
adb shell chown -R root:root /etc/dp_extensions
adb shell chown system:system /data/system/ExtMgr.db
adb shell chmod 0660 /data/system/ExtMgr.db
adb shell chown system:system /data/system/ExtMgr.db-journal
adb shell chmod 0600 /data/system/ExtMgr.db-journal
adb reboot

The device is then rebooted.

It will ask you which Launcher to choose by default, select the original DPLauncher (first one) is highly recommended to avoid behavior changes. It is NOT recommended to select the E-Ink-Launcher as the default one.
