How can I de-brand my phone? (install vanilla Android?)


I bought a cheap handset (XTE San Francisco, 2.1) from the Orange provider.


I'm not a regular Orange customer so I had it unlocked so I could use my existing SIM.



Orange seem to pre-load their devices with a bunch of useless stuff. Which is now even more useless since I can't access any of them.


Is there anyway I can remove these? I would prefer not to "root" my device if possible.


What about installing the vanilla version of Android, such as the flavour which the SDK emulator has?
