It would mean that you are able to use a non EE SIM in it. Once it is out of contract then EE (or any operator) are compelled to give you an unlock code free if you request it. I think actually they are allowed to make a couple of quid admin charge, but they don't necessarily do so.

No.
From your comment I assume that is is an Android phone and that you are confusing 'Root' with 'Unlock'. [Root is similar to Jailbreak for an Apple]
If you root your phone then that would allow you to remove everything you didn't want. You can probably root your Samsung and I can probably take you through it if you tell me the exact model.
I'm not sure it is worth it though unless the unwanted Apps are giving you a problem.
