Hey Tom, You're sure having a time with your new phone. Here is what I have assessed with the edit field in the app store. If I search for a specific app, I am able to clear the edit field with the clear button. However, if I do a general search for a particular category such as solitaire, I can't clear the edit field. The only way I could reset the edit field and clear it was to close out the app store in the app chooser. I then heopened the app store and the app search field was clear.
As far as the picker not working, have you sried to enter your credit card info through settings, iTunes/Apple ID? With my restore from recent Mac backup, my credit info transferred over. Just a thought.
