In case you want stock Jelly Bean on HTC First

HTC First will be the first smartphone that will feature an integrated Facebook Home, but it appears that the actual Facebook Home skin can be completely and quite easily disabled in case you want a pure, stock Android Jelly Bean experience.

HTC First is actually the first smartphone from HTC since the G2 that can actually run on stock version of the Android and the procedure is quite simple, as all you have to do is disable the Facebook Home in app's settings menu. The specification page for the HTC First already revealed that it runs on Android 4.1 Jelly Bean OS beneath all that Facebook Home integration and we are quite sure that Qualcomm's Snapdragon 400 MSM8930A chipset with 1.4GHz dual-core CPU part paired up with 1GB of RAM will have no trouble coping with Android 4.1 Jelly Bean.

HTC First and Facebook Home sounds like a good device with a good feature but only if you simply can't live without Facebook. In any case, it is good to know that Facebook Home can be at least be disabled, leaving you with standard and pure Android 4.1 Jelly Bean OS. [Now if only they would do the same with Sense. Ed]
