iPod freezes turns weird colours and then restarts

So ive had my 16gb iPod touch 5th generation for 2 years now and nothing has been wrong with it but just recently its been acting weird.

First the iPod freezes for 5 seconds, then turns weird colours such as red/green/blue/black/red etc. Sometimes verticle white lines appear too. Then shuts down the iPod and restarts it. Also this is messing up my time and date so after the iPod boots up again it will stay the same time as it was when it was about to shut down. The wifi connects for 30 seconds then loses connection for like 30 seconds and that keeps happening. The wifi works perfectly with my phone and laptop. Overall my iPod is useless at the moment and i cant go 5 minutes without this happening. Please can someone give me a solution to fix this. Thanks

iPod touch, iOS 9

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:

Restore your device from an iCloud or iTunes backup - Apple Support

- 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.
