Q. I've googled about this but I can't seem to find a good guide for me to understand. I have a Samsung Fascinate (Galaxy S). I know rooting a phone gets you a lot of cool stuff, but exactly what? How do you do it? and what can I do to make sure I don't accidently screw my phone up? Does anyone know a really good guide for beginners like me? Thanks!
A. Here's a good link that would help you know what's worth it.
http://lifehacker.com/5806135/the-10-best-android-apps-that-make-rooting-your-phone-worth-the-hassle
I would suggest going to xda developers and asking the question in the forums under the Samsung Fascinate. I'm not sure putting a link to xda developers will be ok on yahoo rules but searching for it will be the first link. I won't recommend this but it's your choice. The people there are good and should help you on your way there, there are a lot of custom roms so read up the comments and select the rom you prefer and more stable.
Hope this helps.

A. Third party apps can be uninstalled from you device: "Settings > Application > ..."
The only way to remove bloatware, or apps that came with your phone is to root your phone.
