I’m looking into buying an Android phone and I’d like to do some development on it as well. Is it possible to perform a fresh clean install on any Android device via the SDK? In other words, is it possible to remove the preloaded OS (i.e. with additional provider software) and install the standard Android OS?
Thanks
If you are looking for a vanilla Android device to do development, I’d pick up a Nexus S or other development phone. It’s your best and easiest bet. You could root your device and find a ROM that someone has built from stock.
