Hi all, so I've rooted by phone using the amazing one click script and have managed to unlock the phone using sgs unlock tool but sgs2 could not find my unlock code.
Before attempting this I backed up my EFS folder.
Its been a while since i've flashed anything (a few years ago on my old old htc hero, had a desire hd since that which I didn't feel the need to flash at the time) and Now I have my SGS2 which came locked on the orange UK network.
Not amazed with the colour scheme and much preferred the blue battery etc of the virgin simfree sgs2 I had previously lol. It appears to have lots of orange bloatware present on the ROM aswell as annoying boot animation which i'd like to remove.
I do quite like the signal boost app idea although not sure how well it works as not had chance to try it!
I've added Go Launcher and a nice ICS theme on there to play with and a HTC sense theme but not overly impressed with go launcher and it seems to stop my search button function from functioning for some reason. I've got plenty of apps installed and configured although one thing that has annoyed me is being able to remove googlemail and gtalk from the social hub program as having google account sync on, I get 2 notifications about my emails.
*#1234# has provided me with the following details if anyone can decipher it. I'm actually using a t-mobile network card at present.

Whats the latest best stock ROM in peoples opinions? How do I remove orange bloatware via adb and is it possible to modify the orange boot screen? Alternatively... so I just wipe and flash a new stock simfree rom to start with?
