That is because Apple have enough clout, and a product that the carriers can't afford not to have, to be able to dictate their own terms. And those terms are that the iPhone is Apple's device, and noone else gets to mess it up.
No single Android manufacturer has that, even if in total the Android market might (or might not) be more important to the carriers.
