Something weird coming on screen

[Shabz0]

This has been happening a few times now. I wanted to know if the phone was damaged? Please advise 

Please see attached.

This really looks like an app drawing on your screen. Start troubleshooting by restarting your phone into safe mode, this will disable all installed 3rd party apps. If the problem is resolved then one of your installed apps is causing this issue and you have to figure out which one. Start by uninstalling those apps you installed recently.

It's the CPU USAGE overlay from developer options.

Go into the developer options and turn it off.

Sorry, it's listed as "profile gpu rendering"

Set it to off, at the moment it's set to bars.

Viridis. Hi. Yes. My developer options were On. I have now turned this to off. Let's see in a week's time if problem still persists. My Mrs looked on Google and said from what she read that it could be a hardware problem.  If it is that I will take back to voaphone store I bought from. 

Many many thanks for such a quick response and solution.

Developer option? Maybe you have advice I can use. When typing, if I am trying to backspace too quick my screen zooms in real close and I get an orange box around the screen. Tapping around the screen seems to change the box like it is toggling thru different sections of the screen. I have to exit the texting app to get it to go away. Ended up finding that just double tapping on home screen also does the same thing. Any ideas?
