my issues with the diamond

[ammaralo]

Hi everyone, I hope your doing well.
I have had the diamond for about 6 months, I have the new rom from sprint, but I have some issues that I have not been able to get around, I have done searches with no avail.
First is text messages: Any time I hit reply to a message, and i start typing, the first character I type always disappears.
Second, text messages take a long time to load when I hit reply, or even when I close a thread.
Third, recently, the text messaging has been freezing briefly while I am typing replies.

My second problem is with ringer/notifications.
This is really annoying. Every time I set the ringer to "Ring and Vibrate", it switches back to just ring.
Then it turns off the notifications for new MMS messages, and reminders.

I dont know how to make these ringers stick.

the text message thing is very annoying as well.

any help would be truly truly appreciated.
