You need to accept him for who he is; partners can be annoying sometimes, but thats the nature of relationships. He sounds like hes desperate to please you! The small things can destroy a relatiohship which seems perfect otherwise.
But, heres something I did - when my partner hangs up too quickly, I called him back and said "I'm just calling to say goodbye properly this time, you dick!" and he quickly got the message As for the commentary thing, when he starts up, just tell him that what hes doing is very interesting and thats why you love him; again, he'll pick up pretty quickly that you already know what he does and will quit speaking
Whatever you do, don't try and change him. It'll never work; but also don't let it annoy you - do something about it which will help you both.
