Also said most of the "PRO, NEO, NEO-V" mobiles got affected because of upgrading ICS, Sony will release full version on coming January 2013. Is this true ???

To the OP as well, the service center maybe just waiting for your warranty to expire. There's no way that mere service center employees would have information about a possible update 2 months in the future. 2 months is a very long time in terms of releasing a fix. And releasing a fix in 2013 for a 2011 device is hard to imagine.
So you'd best pursue them to change the display once again or else file a complaint in the Consumer Court . Expecting you to be with a defective phone for 2 months is not done either.

I got the same issue few months ago, with stock GB rom. I suspect that issue started after one time I use blackberry charger. During the charging time with blackberry charger touch screen was totally unusable. That was a little strange to me at that time as I used to use any charger around (motorola, samsung) and the worse was hardly use only, not as bad as blackberry charger.
I tried upgrading my phone to ICS but it didn't solved right away so I was thinking of buying a new phone. But then I found the issue has been resolved itself after about one month. Now it is two months from then and my touch screen is still perfect.
I've used BlackBerry charger and Samsung ones too....
Though I never faced any such issue!
It's either the Rom or finally it could be a hardware issue!

whatever "mttca" said is true. If you keep using none SONY charger, then your touch screen will gone.
If you want to break your touch screen then try it your own risk
Sony mobiles only getting affect by touch screen issue. anyway i am going to change my mobile soon.
Well,I don't use non Sony chargers daily
I use when I've no other option
But to keep my phone alive!

@OP
i had exactly same problem with my neo v in june 2012
i went to service center and they changed the screen within 10 days and gave me my phone back.
i still remember that this problem started when i inserted my friends memory card in phone.
its working fine since then
I've never tried others' memory card!
Now is it the charger or the memory card that causes issue!?

Yes, I have this problem and will surely return the phone... It's very annoying and I should put down the phone for 15min until it works again...
In fact, we bought two Mini's and both have the problem.

Screen lightly flashing is normal, light sensor is changing the brightness.

You are right... The phone cannot overcharge... but when it becomes warm the problems start...
The moment I use the phone for - let's say 10-15min - it becomes unresponsive. The screen pop-up menus start flashing (appear - disappear) and I just have to switch off the screen and wait 10-15min before I can use it again but not for long...
I haven't searched in any other forum but I read about a guy who had the same problem and he received a new Mini...
So as soon as we are back in Belgium I will change both our Mini's.

This isn't an overcharge problem, from what you've said anyway. If it was an overcharge/overheating problem it would show up as soon as you use the phone?
I had an old LG Chocolate. One of the first heat sensor touch button phones and that had the problem of when the phone got too hot (either sitting in the sun too long or on charge too long in a warm room) it would start jumping around the menus and all that, I couldn't work the phone without cooling the touch buttons down. It happened as soon as I unlocked the phone, sometimes i even think it was trying to do things even when it was locked.
So the fact that it happens 10-15min after stated using, leads me to believe it is something else. Does anyone else agree with me, or am I completely off base??
Cheers,
Evil.
Thank you all...
I think i better consider again to buy the phone....

Hi there Folks....
My SGS3 Pebble Blue suddenly went dead. I leave my phone overnight with 17% battery charge, I dont remember well if the wifi was on, but in the morning it was completely dead, no button respond at all. Thinking that the battery has been emptied, i plug in the charger, but the phone doesnt respond, not even the LED nor the battery display that is charging. So, I leave it on the charger for a couple of hours, like 3 or 4 hours but still its dead.
My SGS3 is running at Omega ROM v34, everything is working fine before the incident, no lags, no system crashes. It is made in vietnam and I got it from a local network provider in Phillippines.
What can i possibly do to revive my SGS3? I could not send it to Samsung for warranty because, first it is running in custom firmware, next is warranty is completely void because i have already replaced my LCD Screen last month. I dropped my phone and the Screen was damaged so I ordered a screen replacement and I myself replaced the damaged screen.
Please help, I have no idea what happened....
Sounds like the S3 "Sudden Death" issue that was in the media some days ago (so the chance is high that it is a physical defect and you can't do much against it...).
Try a google "Galaxy S3 Sudden Death" search and you should get tons of informations about the issue. As far as i know Samsung Support repairs/replaces damaged devices without trouble.
Looks like they replace the mainboard on those damaged devices. Some people are saying that it might be some sort of planned obsolescence that kicks in to early.
That would also explain why Samsung is not talking about those issues at all and repairing/replacing damaged devices without further asking.

Have sent in the unit yesterday to the service center. They have checked the download mode and asked me if I did some rooting and I said no.
From the download mode they cannot see the product name but there is no custom binary download numbers too so they said it is covered by warranty and just this morning, I called them up to follow up and they said they already ordered a new motherboard. I asked again if there are no problems with regards to the warranty and they have confirmed that it is indeed covered. Hopefully, in a week I'll get the repaired unit

So have you gotten your phone back yet? Which service center did you bring your unit to?
I have been having this problem since few days.
IT takes 3-5 tries to unlock my phone.
I tried everything -reverting to stock firmware,removing battery,removing memory card,etc.
I charged it once with a cheap charger and my problems started.
I've unlocked my bootloader so my warranty is now void.
Please help
I've read of problems caused by cheap battery chargers but I've always been casual about that
Seems it's time for me to be cautious while using a charger...

You are lucky man...your display is still surviving.
I once charged my phone via Samsung charger and my lcd was done away with...but don't worry about your bootloader...india hai...bootloader kya hota hai ye tak nahi pata hota yaha ke service centre walo ko...simple root tak to pata nahi hota...ha ha ha...just relock it by flashing the relock ftf and flash stock GB ftf and take it to them...and then show like you are a complete dumb who can't even install apps...and pretend like you know nothing how it happened.
I did the same thing and got my lcd replaced under warranty...but beware...if you don't mind your device lying there for a couple of months...go with it.
I got mine after 4mths.

If your device is bricked they simply repair it via pc companion...and since you already have relocked it...it will straight away start repairing it...hence they dont even think if it is locked or unlocked.

There is nothing to be done with the battery...relock the bootloader and try to repair via pc companion...and don't charge via non-sony charger. Also this may be kernel related. Playing with the voltages may be a cause..not to mention OC.
