Hi
Recently I've always bought through Carphone Warehouse because they have always done O2 handsets on operating systems that are not branded O2 (so it either has vanilla Android or the Samsung etc. flavour of Android). Now that that option is no longer available, is there a way of getting an Android handset on O2 without it having an O2 branded operating system?
Thanks
Chris

Alternatively you would have to buy the device outright from a retailer (such as Amazon, John Lewis, etc).
Please note, this is not customer services and we cannot access your account. Do not publish personal details (email, phone number, bank account).

O2 customise their firmware but it is no longer branded.

Thanks everyone. It was indeed uncustomised firmware I was after, that's a shame. I may look to switch to someone who does sell through CPW.
