Help Numerous Issues since OTA 4.2.2

I had previously rooted my phone under 4.1.1, and the 4.2.2 update took away my root, and I've not yet restored it. Now that that's out of the way, here's what I'm seeing so far:

1) Screen timeout doesn't work at all. My timeout is set at 1 minute, but unless I press the power button, the display doesn't turn off, ever.
2) Radio issues. I sat in my house without a cell signal for 45 minutes, all the while my phone heated up and drained battery searching for a signal. I have never had issues with the signal at my home before. A reboot fixed that. I frequently lose WIFI both at work and at home.
3) Freezing/Restarting - my phone freezes reboots itself at least once a day, usually twice or more.
4) Random notifications of texts I received hours ago

Anyone else having this level of problems?
 
While I am not on 4.2.2, you can try doing a factory data reset, it can fix a myriad of problems. You will lose your call logs, sms, and mms; but once you sign back into your google account, your contacts, bookmarks, and hopefully apps will be restored.

good luck
 
Factory reset worked, but the backup/restore process didn't. I lost all of my photos and videos, etc. This is strange, because I've had multiple handsets, and my photos and videos synced from one handset to the next one.

Is it possible to access this stuff online?
 
Only if you have all your photos synced with google and/or picassa.

If you can't find them there, install Astro file manager on your phone and get back to me, going to 4.2.2 changes the location of your sdcard.
