Here is the simple way Cecilia.
First Download the Impactor from here
Cydia Impactor
Go into settings of phone > Developer Options > Allow USB Debuging.
Plug Phone into computer. Select Allow PC Software for phone.
Run the Impactor.
Hit the start button and let it run.
When finished. Disconnect from computer and Restart phone.
Goto Play store and download SU app.
Run the app.
Your phone should show that it is rooted.
If it is. You may download SNAPPEA.com
Reconnect you phone and back it up using snappea.
You can use Titanium Backup too.
Once you have it backed up by the two ways. You can slowly remove any bloatware.
One Word of Warning...... "DO NOT REMOVE" Black Hole or Bubbles.
These are not apps. These are firmware correctors. I did and regretted it.
Remove a little at a time and only what you do not use.
My phone is perfect but I have yet to be able to make a ROM image. It no longer connects to the internet and Google. The playstore is killed but I can use Snappea for all my apps.
Just remember, when you remove all links to keep your phone from running wild, you can't update it as easy. A GO phone is just that. A cheap and easy to use phone.
Rooting the phone allows you to remove the apps you don't want to use permanantly. You can go into the settings and turn them off. They are disabled and will remain that way until you turn them back on.
As far as I can tell, you don't have to root the phone to turn the apps off.
Be carefull. Once Rooted. You can really kill a lot and mess up the phone.
Restoring the phone back to factory does not work all the time.
