Can anyone walk me thru the steps of hacking Samsung Behold 2 and installing android 1.6?

I tried to go through TMobile’s update (stupidly thought it would be easier) but they say the updates are sent by Google and Samsung and they have no idea when they will be sent, but meanwhile I must pay $30 per mo for the data plan in order to receive the updates.

Ive read in various places it is possible to root the phone or something and do a workaround to install Android. I started to try this but didn’t get anywhere.

Anyone happen to know the procedure?
