Guest PaulOBrien Posted July 12, 2013 Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 MoDaCo.SWITCH for the HTC One is coming soon, allowing you to easily switch between Sense and Google Play edition on your phone, without maintaining two sets of data. The new concept is demoed in the video below. I'm currently testing the build and looking for any last remaining issues / bugs before I let it loose on you lot in the form of a public Beta! It will be installed via custom recovery in the usual way and is based on the 2.24 European One ROM (Android 4.2.2) and the shipping Google Play edition ROM. Stay tuned for further updates! You can also view the video on .'> . I know there's going to be lots of questions about SWITCH... so ask away and i'll do my best to answer them! :) Click here to view the item Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest HCDR.Jacob Posted July 12, 2013 Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 Interesting concept. Certainly look forward to trying it. Assume it would still need a data wipe before the initial flash? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest UbuntuBhoy Posted July 12, 2013 Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 Biggest question, how much additional space is used adding the GE ROM? Shared data makes this a winner in my book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest marmankites Posted July 12, 2013 Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 Looks great, very fluid. Q: Extra size of rom required? Q: Potential to select HTC Sense apps inside the stock rom. Or a selection tool for choosing; Phone Launcher Camera Calendar Gallery etc. for each? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest PaulOBrien Posted July 12, 2013 Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 Interesting concept. Certainly look forward to trying it. Assume it would still need a data wipe before the initial flash? No, it uses MCR dirty flash technology to try and mitigate that. Biggest question, how much additional space is used adding the GE ROM? Shared data makes this a winner in my book. At the moment i'm focusing on compressing that lost space down as much as possible. My target is to lose <500MB of space. Looks great, very fluid. Q: Extra size of rom required? Q: Potential to select HTC Sense apps inside the stock rom. Or a selection tool for choosing; Phone Launcher Camera Calendar Gallery etc. for each? 1. See above. 2. A future development.

Guest mmayhew Posted July 12, 2013 Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 Can't wait to try it out. Will you ever provide a build that has US Carrier Sense builds? I'm a US TMO customer and their Wifi Calling feature is huge for me. EDIT: clarification Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest UbuntuBhoy Posted July 12, 2013 Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 Jesus that's good. If you can hit the 500M mark you won't even notice the lost space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P Jesus that's good. If you can hit the 500M mark you won't even notice the lost space. If I remember correctly GE roms that I've downloaded are about 450MB, should be a sinch. Great work Paul!

Guest Alonso_91 Posted July 13, 2013 Report Share Posted July 13, 2013 Great work. Will it also allow to add more roms to the list?? Say I wanna try out MIUI as well, would I be able to "triple" boot it? Anyway I cant wait to try it out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest GarJones27 Posted July 13, 2013 Report Share Posted July 13, 2013 Amazing! I cannot wait to use this. I know it will be a daily driver for me, as there are things that I cannot live without on both roms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guy4jesuschrist Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 Is it possible to add PA's HALO to the GE side of SWITCH, since they open-sourced it, or perhaps make a flashable zip? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest UbuntuBhoy Posted July 16, 2013 Report Share Posted July 16, 2013 How do apps that are in /system in one ROM but data in the other work? I am thinking of AOSP apps installed in my sense ROM, how is the conflict dealt with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
