So My wallpaper moves by itself (as shown in the video) I notice it happens most of the times when I rotate my screen from landscape mode to portrait but sometimes just randomly doing that... Even its own wallpapers (pictures that come with the device) is still moving by itself ...and the fix to it SOMETIMES is to change the wallpaper. :mad::mad::mad:

Heres the video: Wallpaper bug? - YouTube
 
I assure you that's not a virus, Android virus are way over rated. I would probably just factory reset it. Or flash the ROM again if you're rooted.
 
This looks like a damaged digitiser to me. Is there any random ghost touches? And has the screen taken any big impacts? Try going into settings/developer and turn on 'show touches' and just watch carefully to see if there are ghost touches. If there is it suggests there is a hardware problem. I agree with the last post. It's Very unlikely to be a virus, there are so few around that actually do anything. I would exhaust other options before you think about flashing the Device. Let me know how you get on. In the mean time I will see if I can find anyone who has had similar. Issues. Regards Beans.
 
If you aren't rooted, a factory reset will clear out any suspected malware.

I don't think this is malware, but if you want to be sure that's the best option


Doing a factory reset will also rule out software bugs, so if its still going on you know its the hardware that needs replaced
