How to install Facebook Home on your smartphone

Facebook Home has been launched, albeit with mixed reactions from the public at large. The social media giant has decided to roll out the app slowly, so as of now, people outside of the US can't really get the app through official channels, i.e. Google Play.  Instead, we're forced to rely on the ingenuity of developers.Installing Facebook Home is a very simple procedure. The things you'll require for this are pretty self-explanatory. The most important thing is a smartphone that actually supports Facebook Home (which basically means any phone that can connect to the Internet and has a 720p display resolution). There are two ways of going about it – the first one is by using only your smartphone (which is good if you have a 3G data plan or are connected to a Wi-Fi network) and the second involves using your computer to download the required files and transferring them to your phone via USB.Both ways do need two things. First and foremost, you'll need a file managing app that lets you access your SD card or your phone's internal memory. We recommend Astro File Manager for this. The second is that you will have to allow your phone to install apps from unknown sources. To do this, go into your phone's settings. From there, go into Security and enable the Unknown Sources option. This is to let you install apps or games directly from your SD card instead of just Google Play.
