Hi,
At the second day of purchase my s3 started to make silly things.
After using for a while I closes down itself. And for some time it does not boot.
Then it boots up but this time its screen tilts with color purple/pink...
I couldnot understand whether problem is in software or hardware.
For example after using 10 minutes or sometimes 1 hour It closes down and does not boot.
After sometime I starts to boot. but when starting the screen tilts and gets prurple/pink color...
I have recorded some videos of its booting process. does anybody has an idea whether this is a software or hardware problem??
thank you

Hi
I purchased SGS2 in dec 2012. It came with Android 4.0.4 version. Now I m facing the problem
of SOD. The phone goes to sleep mode randomly and doesn't wake up till it is not restarted.
Today it went to sleep when i was making a call. I heard somewhere that it is because of 2
instances of clock in ICS4.0.4 version. I also disabled one of the instance, cleared the
data of second instance and rebooted the phone. For few days it worked fine but again the
problem has started. It is quite irritating.
Now I had even done done the factory reset with complete wipe option.

S2 going to sleep - fixed
I narrowed it down to a glitch in one of my apps. For me it was "Go theme". Once I removed it, the phone has been problem free so far for 3 mos. I hope they fix it, because I miss it, especially the pop-up sms. lol
Greetings!
I bought a galaxy S III i9300 since November and just started to have some problem since a month.
The microphone sensitivity keeps getting lower and lower, to such an extend that now, event if I yell on the phone, almost nobody is able to hear me.
The phone has been root for some times, and I installed android revolution HD 28 (android 4.1.2).
I tried a few things:
* Skip to others roms (android revolution hd 33, CM10...) before returning on arhd 28. Without success.
* Typed this: *#0002*28346#: MMI Code invalid.
* I flashed the kernel with siyah then installed stweaks - There is no options to configure the micro... (Even so I followed a lot of tutorials)
So I just wanted to know if there was a solution to boost the micro sensitivity
I thanks you in advance for any answer you can have and I apologies for my poor English, tried the best I could but I'm not a native English speaker at all :/
flash a stock ROM, factory reset
Thanks for your answer!
I'm so sorry for taking this long to write you back, I was being busy trying to flash my android kernel with my Linux computer
And I just finally succeeded
Nevertheless, the micro still doesn't work, and it may be worse than before: Now, even when I scream nobody hear a sound.
It's look like the micro is disabled, do you have any tips on how could I check its still works?
For more information, I flashed my phone using Heimdall flasher 0.0.5, which is an odin emulator for Linux. Then I went on recovery mode and selected:
* wipe data/factory reset
* wipe cache partition
And here are the new parameters about my phone:

If you are back to fully stock, with no mods, then looks like hardware fault -have you got the phone wet at any point?
I don't think you can even test the microphone using voice recorder or video, as these use the other microphone (maybe check if video is recording on stereo?)
Maybe try a device test app from the play store before you return it service centre.
Hi! Nop, it has never been wet, im very carreful with it.
I tested the micro with the the voice recorder app, it didn't work neither.
I will try to send it back to samsung center tonight, I hope it won't take so long :/

I have had this delivered from DHGate today. I have NOT flashed it, rooted it or anything. Its as it came out of the box!
I set up the phone from scratch logging on to my network, setting up Google and as soon as it says the phone is ready to use, the phone j reboots, and reboots over and over and over.I have been through this 5 times now each time doing a hard reset and trying again.
It also reboots when recieving a call or an SMS.
if I skip the Google Set Up, and Do not connect to wifi or have a SIM card in and skip through all the set up steps till I get to the home screen it works fine and does not crash and go through the reboot cycle.
So basically i have found it crashes after attempting to log into Google Accounts like Playstore, Gmail and the like.
It crashes when receiving an SMS or a Phone Call.
I dont want to send it back if possible, just make it work with a different OS or ROM to fix it. Either another 4.2.1 or 4.2.2.
Is there anyone that can help at all? I would be so thankful!
It seems that I may not have charged the battery up long enough for the initial charge.. The seller suggested 8hours so going to go for 12 or 13 hours charge and see what that does.

Hi,
I have similar phone did you manage to get it fixed?
Hello,
I received a message when I was at work yesterday that an OTA was available. I had previously rooted the phone, but never really used any root functionality and wasn't too concerned about keeping it. After the update was downloaded and the phone rebooted I was stuck at the "downloading don't turn off target". It has the odin label in the type left by the way. Somehow I significantly screwed things up and the only way I was able to get the fun functional again was to run the Samsung repair assistant (which worked fine).
I am curious to know if I am actually am at the latest rev. of firmware / rom. Here is my "about" tab.

This is the latest firmware.
Hey everyone,
I have a SGS3 and some major issues with it crashing every 5-10 minutes. It gets unresponsive and the screen goes black. Usually the little led keeps flashing if I have unread messages. I also have severe battery usage and the phone goes empty in 3-4 hours during moderate use while I'm in school and checking it inbetween classes.
It's rooted with Cyanogen 10.1.3-RC2-i9300.

Should I revert back to Stock rom? I'ts been a while since I flashed the phone. If I don't have a backup of my old rom, just the user folders (I believe I need a nandroid backup?) what do I do?
Factory reset and flash the latest stock firmware for your country. Test before you add or restore anything.
