Many Problems with my Xperia Play 4G

I will just get to the problem at hand: I recently bought this phone, and I do like it. However, there are many Problems that cause me to regret buying it.
1. Apps force close all the time, sometimes multiple times before they work. Sometimes the app will work and it still force closes.
2. The phone has been quite slow, and there are no apps that are killing the speed.
3. The front facing camera is digitized, discolored, and distorted. I saw some other people's Xperia Play and this was not an issue, also the phone is new so it should not be broken.
4. The 4G says H+. I am not sure if it is supposed to say that or not, i do know that H+ and 4G are pretty much the same, but i am used to seeing it as 4G. I also do not experience 4G speeds.
5. My touch screen will register multiple touches, causing things to open or close that i did not touch. This also affects texting because it types or deletes letters i did not touch, some way across the virtual keyboard.

Other than that, gaming has been amazing. The game pad works well, ive experienced no lag with gaming. The game pad's feel of an actual playstation is the only reason i have not gotten rid of this phone. The phone is not old, about a few months. So, i would like to know if this is a commom problem, and if it can be fixed. Thank you.

Recently bought the phone? New or used? This is a 2011 model.

It was new, one of those things where stores keep new phones and sell them online later after awhile.

1. Some apps require Android 4.0.3; Xperia Play only has Android 2.3.4
2. Slow is a relative term; this is single core CPU with 512MB ram, so it is about right.
3. any photo?
4. There is no 4G support. H+ is the highest you can get with this Qualcomm Snapdragon S2 MSM8255 chipset.
5. not sure ...
