I dont want to flash to any custom roms until I know more about Android. Plus I dont see anything wrong with the stock rom other than having a bunch of apps I dont want/need, other than that, its fine for now.

There's the issue.
I'm sure that someone could explain this better than me, but I'll just put it in simple terms because I don't know exactly what I'm doing yet.
You rooted your phone, which means you gave yourself access to be a Superuser. So, like you said, apps that need SU will work. The problem is, you're doing this on a rom that was not designed to work w/ SU permissions.
Some developers have taken the exact same rom you have and tweaked it so that it works with SU permissions. In other words, it is a Rooted Stock Rom. Nothing changes other than the fact that it doesn't mind you having SU permissions.
It's kind of like me giving you a wooden box w/ a bunch of stuff in it. But the box is completely sealed and nailed shut on every side. You could punch a hole it, and get access to everything, but that's not what the box was designed for. However, some guy over at XDA-Carpenters takes that same box and builds a door into it, now you have the same box with the same contents, but your accessing it the way it was intended.
So...
Your solution is...
Install the stock rooted Sprint rom.
This thread has every rom -->

You should install "Stock with Root, OTA update1"
