What ammo are you using? Did you replace the extractor spring? A picture of the extractor tip might help as well.
On your toggle not locking back, you might try a different mag. Mec Gars are the recommended aftermarket brand. Sometimes on some pistols a stronger mag spring can improve hold open function; forum member GT has installed those for me in the past. That you replaced the mainspring and now it's not holding open may indicate the mainspring is a bit too strong, not uncommon if you are using 115gr. target ammo. IMO when replacing mainsprings or when the HO function is not always working, a tape test should be done (search the forums and you'll find how to do it).
