Ipod 4g help please, acting wierd.

I have had my ipod 4g for about 2 or 3 years, i'm not sure. First the battery life *****, about 1:30hours. Second After about a minute of play the middle of my ipod from the F, G, H keys and up (landscape mode). When i try to press the G, H, F, T, Y, V , B or any other button it either doesnt read it, or selectes something entirely different. Third sometimes after my apps crash the screen starts moving ramdomely and opens and closes apps and sometimes even types in mumbo-jumbo words. Fourth when it's in that mesed up stage sometimes i can select keys or buttons without even touching the screen by hovering my finger over it :$. Please help guys, i lost my 5g and this is all i have left.

iPod touch, iOS 6

Try:

- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost

Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at

least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

- Reset all settings

Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.

All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.

- Restore from backup. See:

iOS: How to back up

- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.
