Help HTC One V screen Problem

Lurker
Hello All,
I love my HTC but when I opened it up.this morning I found a small patch of purple lines in the corner. I have a screen protector and I never handle the Phone roughly. And idea what's wrong?
 
Mine developed ( no reason I know of) what I would call a "blotch" of purple. As best as I can figure, it's visible unless the phone is actually painting the area of the screen with a color- but if its a light color the purple bleeds through.

If I take a screen picture, areas of the screen that should be black show the blotch, light colored objects show bleed through.

The same with any photos taken-- if they are framed in the view finder to be where the screen blotch is, light colored objects may show bleed through, black objects will have a purple blotch. This will show if the saved picture is printed, or if it's displayed on any computer screen.

---
second observation, indoor pictures seem to have a yellow cast - I do have rooms where the light is fluorescent- but changing the camera settings to fluorescent doesn't seem to have any effect.
 
Strange bug.. have any of you tried making screen adjustments (brightness, animations, etc) just to see if that has an affect on the rogue color issue?
