It's better if you split each problem into a separate thread. Include photos of the part that isn't working as there are different versions of things like the temperature sensor in the nozzle. Screenshots of the problem in Pronterface might be helpful also. Actually a single photo of the bottom of your printer and a single photo of the entire print head will be helpful.
If I don't respond within 12 hours send me a direct message with a link to your topic.

Yes.
You want to use pronterface. Also known as printrun. It allows you to control every individual part through a USB cable.
So install pronterface on a PC or mac - preferably a laptop because you need to connect the PC to your printer through a usb cable (you can always pick up the whole printer and bring it to the computer).
Get pronterface here. It's free:

It's not an install actually - just copy the files anywhere and double click on "pronterface". Then do "connect" and if that works you have HUGE control over your printer that you didn't before. Home the axis and then type in gcodes like this:
G1 X100
So some things are easily controlled by clicking a button. Other things you need to do gcodes. Here is a list of the gcodes. UMO and UMO+ has Marlin firmware. So when looking at these gcodes only pay attention to ones that are supported by Marlin:
