A:AnswerI had similar and worse problems. T-MOBILE couldn't solve the problems after three tried. I can only guess it may be due to it's integration of Sprint. Switched to AT&T and phone works like a charm!
A:AnswerIt's cheap, crappy glass. I forgot to add that to my review, but my screen is chipped and cracked in places when it's never sustained any impact. The screen protector I bought cheap off Amazon is keeping it together, still functional and looking nice until you see it up close.

A:AnswerYes to both questions. 1) You can add pictures to text messages. 2) Yes there is a notification light. The light turns on steady when the phone is charging, and it waves when you missed a call or have new text messages or notifications. I included a picture of the notification light.
