Lumia 925 screen frozen with rainbox pixels

I was watching a video on my phone when it suddenly froze and displayed a pixely rainbow screen. I've tried pushing all the buttons to reset but none of them worked.

Any tips?

Had that on my phone as well. I let it die completely and rebooted it after a couple of days and voila, it was fine again....hopefully you will have the same result...

Did you try soft reset?? Press and hold Volume down+Power button for 10+sec..

Just power off your phone like you normally do:
Press and hold the power button for about 4 seconds then slide down on the screen.
Even though you will not see anything on your screen, it will power off. Then, restart your phone as normal.
