The first and most obvious question is does this stuff start happening when you have it cabled to a charger or a PC? If so, that is the issue. You must use a stock charger and a stock cable (in most cases). Some off-brand chargers and cables will work, but it seems that most will not. If they do not work, they produce the crazy kind of results you are experiencing. Otherwise, you have a digitizer that is going bad.

Good luck.
