    Giff Gaff UK firmware

    What firmware does Giff Gaff use in the UK?
    I know they use o2 network, so is it o2 firmware or non carrier firmware?

    Sorry, I meant to update this.
    I now know it is o2 branded firmware but I have put a non-branded firmware on an old S6 Edge so my daughter can use her GiffGaff sim card with it.

    Yes it does, but I had to put the latest firmware on it as the phone had been in a drawer for a couple of years at least.

    Yes. I flashed the S6 Edge with the latest firmware, non-branded.
    I could have put o2 firmware on it if I wanted to.
