iPhone 6 Plus right half of screen has lines down it.

My phone since the official 8.1 update earlier this week is acting up now. For instance when I wake the screen on the iPhone it has pixel lines running down the right half of the screen. Check this photo out.

Is it because of the update you think? Should I wait for another update? It just started doing it after I took the 8.1 update. Also the spotlight just randomly opens and types tons of letters and characters on its own now.

I have the same issue with my phone, with the same lines like your photo above. I just got my phone yesterday (11-24) and I noticed those lines right away. I'm wondering if its the phone it self or what?? I paid for the phone so I would like a good phone. Please let me know if you found a solution to this or if i should take it in the store and get a replacement.

I updated to ios 8.2 (12D508) and started having this same problem. Its very sporadic. When the lines come in I notice that half of the side becomes unresponsive. A quick fix that has been working is to lock the screen (pressing the side lock button), then unlock it. I have tried resetting all settings, but not restoring to factory just yet hoping that there is an update fix for this. PLEASE HELP!
