Root [Sprint/Cricket] General question about ROMS on rooted devices

Hey, thank you all in advance or the help I already received in rooting my Galaxy S3, (Originally for sprint, but now unlocked for use with my metro PCS account)

1: Will a TOM make my Galaxy run faster?

2: I have a CPU controller, and it appears to raise the Gz of my phone CPU to 1.512 Gz. Is this just merely the normal operating Gz of the phone, or has the root enabled a kernel of some kind? And what is an "insecure" kernel?

3: My current problems are: MMS "failed to load" messages anytime there is an attachment, pic, or v-card being sent to me, I can only receive text. I tried using handcent as an alternative messenger, but it still did not solve my problem. and the pesky "system update" notifications I keep getting.
Truthfully, now that the phones was unlocked from sprint for use with my metro PCS account, I don't know what part of these problems are sprint-hardware-related, and what part are metro pcs-carrier-related

Thanks for helping me root!
