My iPhone might need replacing. When I'm using it it freezes or restarts and a crazy colored screen comes up and it looks like it's melting, almost like it has a virus. Very strange...what could this be?

Have you tried to reset the iPhone? Sounds like a software issue. Or it could possibly be an issue with the logic board. We have seen this same problem in some mac's and other devices, and if a reset didn't solve the problem, it was an issue with the logic board. Your best bet would be to swing by the nearest Apple store and have a cheat with someone at the genius bar. You never know, you just might get a replacement device.
