Hi!

Im new to the Andriod market. I had a blackberry, and it just wasnt as spiffy as this lovely phone.

However I am having some issues and questions. I am a complete newbie. I dont understand any of this lingo im reading and if you all could help me out that would be great.

I have a Samsung Captivate from At&t

Here are my questions.

1. How do I do screen shots?
2. How do I get rid of the stock att aps on my phone.
3. How do I get my notifications to pop up. Im having to go into the app like Facebook, Heytell, Words with friends, to actually get the notifications even my gmail. I dont get them in the notifications box.

Those are my top questions. I would also know how to trick my phone out. I want to use it for all I can you know? Thanks in advance!

1. need to root, then install shootMe or something similar
2. root, then install titanium backup
3. popup notifications depend on the app. i dont use any of those apps so i dont know if they have popups or not. if you want sms popups you can get an app like Go SMS or Handcent and you can enable popups in those
