      Do you not understand how the software on your phone gets there? The manufacturer makes a release and the carriers have it modified to their own spec, often disabling or removing things.

        There are plenty of carriers which don’t do that, even in the US, assuming you are willing to part with a big name carrier.

        Yeah, and that’s why it’s a stupid idea to get your phone through a carrier instead of unlocked from the manufacturer.

          Mine is factory unlocked, not a carrier specific model, yet I still don’t have access to the FM tuner inside. It’s better but still fucked with.
