i have the same problems with my floating bridge ibanez (but only when i play with tremolo arm
The only thing i can say is go to a (good)music shop, or the shop you bought it at and let them repair it, in my case it has to do with the springs inside the guitar
Its a common problem with cheaper tremolo (ibanez) guitars, but i think its fixable

First off, when you have new strings stey will stretch and it will go out of tune.

To set your tremolo, ALWAYS first release the headlock if it's a double lockin tremolo.
Set the fine-adjustment screws in mid position.

Tighten or losen the screws you photoed until the trem is aligned with the top... it's either the bridge itself or a notch on it's side you aim with.
Also, to set the action of the strings there are two screws on the top side, beside the E-strings so to say, where you adjust the height of the bridge and strings. You can lower (for speed) until the strings touches the frets, then raise a tad, you dont want thar burring sound.

When you got the right height and the bridge in level you're good to go, tighten the headlock.

Well, actually one should intonate it. Meaning that an open E and E on the 12'th fret (and of course all other strings) are both showing E on the tuner, way too often it differs.
You can set that by adjustig the string length by that slider on the bridge.
