Need help please! Evo camera looks like rainbow!

I took a bunch of pics with my Evo and all of a sudden it looks like there is a rainbow filter on my screen. I checked to see if any filters were clicked (sepia, gray, etc.) and they were all clear.

Checking old photos (yesterday) they are bright and clear with no weirdo colors.

Look and see what it is doing and NO my lens isn't greasy. I cleaned it with alcohol.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Your camera lens is separating from the motherboard of your phone. Press on the lens and take a picture and see if its better. If your on a custom rom flash back to stock and unroot and take it back to sprint. It's a hardware problem but you don't want them to blame it on you being rooted.

I tapped on the lens with my finger, worked thank you.

Now I've got to figure out how to unroot. Here in Houston the Sprint stores are super strict on rooted phones. A friend of mine went in for battery problems (cus serv said to go to a store for a replacement) and they said his phone has no warranty due to the root.
