Q: iPhone 6  shows static at top of screen and will not access apps.

Has anyone solved this problem, when a restore does not work?  My iPhone 6+ shows static at the top of the screen and will not allow me to access apps.  Or, if I am lucky enough to use an app, it will suddenly fail or even switch to a different app.  I encountered this problem with another iPhone 6+ that Apple agreed to replace.  Now the problem is occurring with this newer phone.  Both phones worked perfectly for 5 months before this problem occurred.  Apple Support indicated that some of the earlier iPhone 6+ phones had defective chips.  If so, why would this problem occur only after months of reliable usage?  Suggestions?  This has occurred with OS 9.1, as well as previous upgrades.

iPhone 6 Plus, iOS 9.1, null
