Help Kyocera Event :(

OK, this is the first smartphone I purchased, I got it a couple years just for camera, music, apps and wifi. It worked great before I activated it just so I could use it for maps and have internet while off wifi.

Now the wifi doesn't work, it will but I have to turn the phone every time, otherwise, the wifi icon stays grey and won't connect. It goes to sleep and then when I wake it up wifi doesn't work so I got to turn it off and on again.
The phone also randomly locks up and/or turns off automatically. I'll be on 3G and then it'll lock up and turn off :( It makes me so mad.

Any thoughts?
I download a battery saver app, I don't know if that has anything to do with it.

edit : When I hit the battery icon it says "Unfortunately, setting has stopped".

This has got to be the worst smartphone in the world.

I had this problem twice, and wish I wrote down the procedure either time, but it had something to do with the play store. I believe I backed up the app at some point and either reverted to that copy or went to system, apps, (sweep left to ) all, down to google play store, uninstall the updates. After that I probably booted and the battery app immediately stopped stopping. Tried a million things before that. Eventually, play store updated again, but whatever caused the glitch hasn't returned yet.
