Default [Q] Screen Issue. Wondering Who To Call For Replacement

Soo I'm on my second sensation (first one had gps & signal issues and also a loose battery door) and my 14th day just passed (bought from Wal-Mart). I just installed a zagg and noticed that my screen is flickering and if I look at the bottom it seems like the screen is bleeding I guess? Can't take a picture because the S4G is my main phone and my veer is dead. I thought that the zagg installation solution may have caused it and thought maybe I squeegeed the liquid into the screen somehow but I installed a zagg on my last one and it didn't have this issue. I checked the sticker and it's still white and so is the battery's. Phone is sitting in rice right now but it doesn't just look like the screen is bleeding it sort of looks like someone pushed real hard on the bottom because there is a little spot where it looks like the screen was bent (hard to explain). Anyone have suggestions on what to do? I figured I call T-Mobile 1st thing in the morning and just get a warranty replacement because I have the PHP and last time I called for a warranty replacement because a defective phone I wasn't charged anything.
Update: They told me that with walmart I'm still on my 14th day so they can't send me one yet. Calling Wal-Mart now
Sorry about poor quality pics (veer camera isn't that good)

I would but they're out of stock & if I returned it I could go to T-Mobile to get it but the phone's more expensive there

So I went through the hassle of all of this today. No walmart will exchange from another store & tmobile can't do anything about it. The only thing he was able to do was notate my account saying that I can get it exchanged passed the 14 days since the walmart didn't have stock.

Luckily they had stock when I called in later in the day
