Just Rooted, Now What?

Download system app remover to get rid of bloatware just be careful what you delete. Google something like.. "System apparently safe to remove on DROID Razr" to get an idea of what you can and can't temove

 

And yes with that app you can remove the things you want and keep the ones you don't.

And I can't stress enough about being careful what you remove. If your not sure ask someone or double check. I got a little trigger happy when I first rooted my DROIDX and nearly ruined my phone.

Titanium backup is a really good tool to have. And relatively easy to use. Also if you buy the full version you can just freeze the bloatware apps and if you have an issue afterwards justbe unfreeze. That should give you a feel for what is safe to remove and what isn't.

Although I still recommend doing a search to be absolutely sure.

What exactly do you mean? Just go through the list on Titanium and backup and remove the ones you want

I think to be able to change the lock screen you would have to flash a custom rom.

I'm not familiar with the DROID Razr just do a lot of research on the forums here and ask a lot of questions

You will start to get a hang of things.

You don't need clockwork if you have safestrap...Install safestrap, open the program install the thing then reboot, when it pops up then you push the menu button and you'll see a menu that looks exactly like clockwork.

 

I don't use Safestrap, I use Razr Bootstrap. Safestrap allows you to partition part of your internal memory to be used for flashing a custom ROM. By doing that you can keep your stock ROM intact while flashing a custom ROM on the other partition. That way you can always have the stock rom to go back to if your flashing a custom rom doesn't go as expected. They refer to the partitions as "safe side" and "not safe side". As far as removing bloatware and system apps that came with the phone from Verizon or Motorola. Two points to be made here: Like shaggykid said...be very, very careful what you remove. Aside from removing apps, you will need to flash a custom rom to do the rest of what you want. I recommend you freeze the apps you don't want or won't use instead of removing them. I guarantee you that sooner than later...and probably sooner, you're going to want to receive the latest OTA update from Motorola, especially when ICS is released. You will not be able to receive the OTA update or upgrade if your phone is not stock...all the bloatware and apps that you have removed will kill your chances of ever receiving an update until you replace them or go back to a completely stock configuration. Freezing is a much better, safer and less hassle way to go in my opinion.
