Contacts and Messaging

Hi all.

I recently bought a GS3 and have been experiencing some very annoying things, namely with messaging and contacts. For starters, the stock messaging app is pretty bad. Group messages come in as individual MMS instead of creating a thread. Having tried other messaging apps, I find out that my contacts are not working properly. I get most of my contacts through Facebook and can't export them to my GMail so names and numbers display properly in apps besides the stock one. I have my Facebook and GMail contacts joined in my people app, but that just configures how things are displayed. Also, is there any way for the Facebook Messenger app to have one thread for a single contact instead of a thread for SMS and a thread for FB messages? None of this can really be that hard if my old POS Windows Phone could do it.

Thanks.

/edit
I also forgot to mention that my phone displays texts out of order. Responses from other people will show up in a thread before my messages. I originally thought it was just something with iPhones, but it happens with almost everyone I text. Very irritating.
