Facebook Home, which was made official just days ago, is scheduled to launch on April 12. Are you one of those people who can't wait to give it a try? Well, you're in luck as a pre-release version of Facebook's Android launcher just leaked, pulled from an HTC First smartphone. 

This early version of Facebook Home consists of 3 APK files you need to download and put on your Android device. Reportedly, doing so is only possible on handsets with screen resolution no higher than 1280 by 768 pixels. It is also important to uninstall the existing Facebook app prior to installing any of the leaked APKs. Devices that have Facebook hardwired into the system won't let you do that, but if you have a Nexus smartphone, you should be good to go.

Just keep in mind that this leaked Facebook Home version is still buggy and some of its perks don't work. Chat Heads, for example, which makes it easier to keep track of all opened Facebook chats, isn't functional. Other features, however, seem to be up and running, so in case you're interested, proceed at your own risk by following the source link below!
