Default [Q] HALP - Getting Started

Hi All,

I just got a Samsung Galaxy S2 (T-mobie U.S.) - Please accept my sincere apologies before hand, I am a super n00b at cell phones.

Is there a way to change the splash screen/ boot animation on this phone?

Has anyone found a guide to remove all of the crap-ware that comes with the phone?

What are some of the steps pro phone users take when they get a new phone?

Thank you for taking the time to address my questions,

-Andres

Ok mr new guy,
Since this phone is so spanking new it hasnt been rooted yet! WHICH means that u cant remove the bloatware, change the boot animation, etc etc.!! many developers are working on that problem as we speak!

What i would do is get Titanimum backup and rom manager as those 2 apps are very essential to rooted phones, go with the premium on both if u can makes it so much better and easier and helps out the devs!
