Red/Blue color palate reversed

I went in and turned on triple clicking so that it would ask what I wanted to do, then tried it again. I got the menu, and hit the white/black option. It changed the white and black just fine.

But that's not the problem I'm having. It's the red/blue that reversing.

If I turn the white/black reversal on, I get an even uglier mess on my screen than I have now.

If this is some kind of color blindness feature, it turned itself on without my input, only turns off if I turn the screen off and back on (and then only at random, I just tried 10 times to reset the screen and it didn't do it this time) and it makes no sense anyway because green is left alone.

I just took a screenshot and emailed it to myself and the screenshot showed completely normal.

I guess I'll have to take it to an Apple store and get it looked at. Joy of joys. Makes me miss my old Treo. I dropped it several times so hard that the SD card popped out and the corners were gouged, but it still worked without a hitch. I've got this thing in an Otterbox, and the last couple drops I can recall were on carpet. If that's all it takes, I can't wait for my contract to end.

Terrific, and the thing is out of warranty. I refuse to pay money to fix a phone I was going to replace in six months anyway. I'll just live with it and start looking at Android and/or MS phones. After a year and half of niggling issues with this thing, I'm pretty much done with Apple and Iphones.

I've checked, turned it both on and off, both from the setting screen and by using the home button clicked three times. It switches back and forth, but the colors are still off in both modes, and never come back to normal.

I was hoping it was a software glitch, but that doesn't appear to be the case. If it's hardware, I'm screwed until I can replace it.

And now it's completely hosed. I haven't seen a normal color distribution in two days now. If it's a bad hardware connection, it's pretty **** specific, because the screen is otherwise normal, just the wrong colors. And only a couple times have I noticed that the colors switch back to normal while it's on, both times during a phone call. Otherwise, as long as I leave the screen on, it was fine.

No one else has any idea what this might be, or seen this in action before?

I keep pointing out that this doesn't seem to be related to an accesability issue. The red and blue have reversed (I actually was able to check this for certain on a flashlight app that allows the screen to be pure colors. Red and blue are flipped, green, white and black are not).

At this point, the phone hasn't had normal colors for three days, at all. I've already removed my video content from the thing because its useless to watch. I have hit the buttons many times in every suggested sequence. I've gone through every menu on every app to see if there is some kind of global setting that got tripped.

I've even looked for apps that might allow me to adjust the color settings of the phone itself, so I can manually re-switch them, but no luck.

About the only thing that I haven't tried is to restore it completely to factory settings and see what it's like before a restore of the data. I've already done a restore with no luck.

I have to think this is either a software or a chip failure. I can't imagine a loose wire causing two colors to flip like this. Losing a color I could see, but flipping?

Nope, that's not it. Triple clicking does nothing at all but open the running programs menu, and as a feature it's turned off in the settings. It's turning itself off and on without my input.
