Why have O2 removed No carrier logo on P20 Pro

[NightOrchid]

I Unboxed my Shiny P20 Pro last night.. Oh Im in love..... . 

I cant remove the "O2 UK" carrier logo from the home screen (left of the notch), which takes up space for extra notifications... yet on EE / Vodafone and 3 networks, they all have the ability to remove their carrier logo, so why have O2 removed the option to turn off logo.. I dont need to be reminded Im on O2

However, I used to own a Mate 10 Pro, so I know the setting everybody refers to which used to be in Settings > Apps Notifications > Notifications & Status Bar... 

I Searched both Android Central and Web... but all searches keep referring to the M10P fix above..

Anyone got any advice or any success with getting rid of the O2 logo..

As you can see.. the 1st image (O2) has no option... the 2nd image is from EE, that has the option

Your only option is to root it.

It's too late to root the Huawei P20 Pro now as they've removed the service. They will no longer supply a code. I don't know if there's another way round this, not come across anything on the XDA forums. 

You're right, it is a pain to have a carrier logo that takes up so much space. It's a notification area, we know which network we signed up to ha ha.

You never know.....could be a new carrier logo in the near future the way o2 is going 😌

Hmmm... Ill just have to live with it then...

Its not a huge issue, its just a shame its takes up Notification space.. Oh well..

Maybe the O2 mods will see this post and ask... Lets hope..

Dont want to root .. No
