Remember MoDaCo.SWITCH, the awesome little tweak that allows you to switch between your smartphone’s default ROM and stock Android on the fly? We wrote about it late last month when it first came to the HTC One, and now it’s available on the Galaxy S4, too.
It just got its first beta release, and those who backed the project on Indiegogo will be the first to gain access.
Last Friday, we told you about the Indiegogo campaign looking to raise £1,000 to bring MoDaCo.SWITCH to the Galaxy S4. The campaign is due to end on Friday, August 16, but in less than five days, it has already surpassed its goal. MoDaCo.SWITCH is coming to the Galaxy S4.
Earlier today, we told you about MoDaCo.SWITCH, a terrific new tool for the HTC One that allows you to install both Sense and stock Android and switch between then at the touch of a button. At the moment, it’s only available on one device, but MoDaCo has plans to bring it to the Galaxy S4 (i9505) in the near future.
If you’d like to see that happen, here’s how you can make a pledge to support its development.
Now that Google Play edition ROMs are available for the HTC One, you can choose whether you want the stock Android experience free from third-party tweaks, or whether you want to stick with all the features that come with Sense 5, such as BlinkFeed and HTC Zoe.
But how do you decide? Both options have their advantages and disadvantages, and choosing one over the other can be tricky. Fortunately, you no longer have to, thanks to MoDaCo.SWITCH.
MoDaCo.SWITCH is a new tweak from MoDaCo that installs both HTC’s version of Android 4.2.2 with Sense 5 and all the wonderful features that comes with it, and Google’s stock Android 4.2.2 ROM on your HTC One. It then lets you quickly switch between them on the fly.
One carrier recently announced that Samsung was planning to skip the Android 4.2.2 update for the Galaxy Note II and update it to the upcoming Android 4.3 release instead. And it appears the Korean company may have similar plans for the Galaxy S III, which has already been spotted with Android 4.3 onboard.
