It happens for me also.. But i cause by quickly pressing tge power button..
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
it also happens to me only when i unlocking with power button, i didnt noticed this when unlocking with home button because i rarely unlock with home button. Its a lot easier for me when I know I'm not the only one with this problem, and when i know that this isn't big deal. but i would like to know if there is a fix or what for this because it started to showing 3 weeks backwards suddenly, and it was happened to me today 2 times and this started to annoying me a little.
I noticed this twice today. Recently upgraded my unlocked 16gb gt i9300 model s3 to the 4.1.2 XXELLA update. Are you all on similar builds? Perhaps a jelly bean bug. Couldn't seem to replicate the problem. Will keep an eye out for it. Hope someone figures out why it's happening.
Once thing I do notice is when I have power saving on and I unlock, after about 2-3 seconds on the lock screen there's a slight flicker. Does anyone else get this? Could all be related to power saver perhaps?

I have the same issue since I flashed a ROM based on XXELLA, I've never noticed this issue before so I guess it's XXELLA-related.
Never had this problem for about 1 year. I droped the phone and cracked the screen. I had a new one, and after that the blue screen.

Have the exact same thing. And it happens randomly can't seem to replicate it. 4.1.2 XXELL4 and also after i got it back from repairs.
I started to think that this bug is similar to Sudden Death, but now it is "attacking" your AMOLED screen..... hmmmm...
My I9305 does it too, it's quite rare though. Might happen once every 3 weeks or so, and I use my phone a lot. As it's so few and far between I haven't been bothered by it.

Is there any sign of life in the screen when you reboot the phone?
Do you see the Samsung logo when your phone is starting up?

I've got the same problem too. I managed to get the phone into download mode (the screen didn't show a thing, but Odin recognized it as "ADDED"). Flahsed an official ICS ROM, but the screen keeps black, but the initialization sound can be heard, and the phone still rings when receiving a call!

I have the same problem as you, but this is something I found out yesterday:
If you go to a dark room, and you turn on your S2, you can see some sort of.. light black/grayish pixel spots over your screen. It is pretty hard to see, that's why you need to be in a dark room.
Did anyone else notice this, or am I the only one?

Hi I noticed it too, what I also noticed is that sometimes when using the face unlock on "waking" the phone up with the power key worked, I'm hoping it is not a hardware issue because it's intermittent.
Hi all.
I have this same problem with my screen on sgs2 . Also can see screen in darkness. Sound and phone works fine.
After opening up, came up with this problem
I opened up the back of the phone, to clean off some lint between the camera lens, and the glass on the outside, after closing it, This problem occurred.
The thing is, the touch screen works fine. I can navigate through the phone (using another Galaxy S2 to guide me of course), and everything. I can turn it off and on, etc.
So, this may be a hardware issue, but can someone chime in and let us know the specific hardware issue that may be in play here?
I'm having the same problem. I'm repairing a water damaged phone, and after the cleaning, it would hang on the galaxy S2 logo. I got it into download mode, and left it that way while I was Dling the proper Odin files, but when I came back 15 minutes later, it was a black screen. I finally realized it was still working, and navigated into download mode by memory, and successfully flashed the firmware. But now the screen that was working, refuses to turn on, although the capacitive lights do, and the phone is seemingly working normally.
It seems like it has to be something simple, the LCD shouldn't just die altogether for no reason. I'll keep messing around, and if I figure anything out, I'll report back. Or maybe someone else figures it out, and I can benefit!
As an update, I plugged the non working screen into a working S2, and it showed the Samsung logo on boot up. Then it went black again, but it can still show images, and did it multiple times. So the LCD works, but something is messing it up.

Hey guys!
I have the same problem... does anybody have an idea what's happening to our phones?
Not to beat a dead horse but I am trying to recover pictures from my sisters phone. I plugged in a working screen, get the Samsung logo on boot then a low lit black screen however the boot sound still plays, all buttons on the bottom light up and give heptic feedback and so on. I don't have any lcd lights though... Lastly when I have the phone off and plug into the wall I do get the battery charge symbol flash on the screen but then goes back to a black screen and the battery still charges. I plug the phone into a computer and can see it connected although cant get kies to work with it... Any updates from anyone else or ideas? This phone has pictures of her daughter that passed away and are irreplaceable. I am willing to try anything so she can hold onto those memories

Hi. I just bought my sgs3 last wednesday and loving it. My sgs3 was an unlocked Vodafone branded one that I immediately flashed with UK unbranded stock firmware. I had no problems with it except this afternoon where my phone screen suddenly wont turn on. My battery was around 70 percent so it was definitely not a battery issue. I pressed power button lots of times, as well as long press, and the home button too to no avail. In the end i had to resort to removing the battery and attaching it again.
Is this like a bug or just a random problem that happened to the phone? Was this caused by flashing the UK stock firnware? Or a hardware problem?
I am a Galaxy noob and I know I am getting paranoid here but I want to make sure so I can have the seller checked it ASAP.
THANKS

Since a few days my GS2 (rooted) turns off after rebooting.
When I change battery or put it to the charger phone will turn on, but will shut off after a servable time (time varies).
I tried different Roms but all do the same.
Also chancing battery doesn’t solve the problem (its firmly placed even laying down on the table it happends(.
I`m running 4.04
even when the phone isn`t warm I do have the problem.
Please how can I solve this

All of this started when you rooted your device?
What ROMs have you flashed?
Try JB leak, if you still have problems there you could be talking hardware.
No the Phone was rooted a while de ago.

I was experiencing random shutdowns myself on 4.0.4, it did not matter which version (Orange Branded or LQ5) so I flashed the 4.1.2 Spanish version of JB and now the phone is a lot more stable. No reboots.

you need to check in CM10 thread whether any other user faced similar issue.
check is there any app which is eating the battery if so uninstall and check. there are many threads available on battery issue feel free to search
Ive had the same problem with a S2 on 4.0.4. When wifi was turned on, the phone would randomly lock up. While it appeared that it was shutdown it was still draining battery but didn't respond to any button except when holding the power button for a prolonged time to restart the device.
However since Ive been running the the OTA JB update for around a week now the problem seems to be gone. Are there more people who had this particular problem and had it fixed with the JB update?
Flashing firmware always helps.
Factory Reset is also helpful (4.0.4's brick bug present, so read before you wipe).
@op either factory reset or go stockland.

Hi there,
i've searched the net for help and didn't find anything similar.
my girlfriend and I both using galaxy S3 9300 4.1.2 bought in June.
In the last few week both of us suddenly saw that the phone turns off while it idle.
In most of the cases the solution was turn it back on, but sometimes it didn't help and we had to take the battery off and back on.
today I noticed for the first time that the phone doesn't really off- since the notification led still flashes.
I'm using apex launcher she use TW.
any idea anyone?
I will be grateful,
Thanks
Or
edit:
both phone are stock rom
mine with the UK Rom
Her with the Indian Rom
both 4.1.2 virsion.
I am having the same problems since last week. Sometimes it also freezes in applications. The GUI thread is then still running because I can see animations from loading dialogs and the wifi indicator also blinks. When this freeze occurs, the device won't react on button presses (except very long press on power button to reboot). Also the device is not going into standby mode (screen off) after 30 seconds.
Maybe this is a side effect of the last update? I am running build version JZO54K.I9300XXELLA (Dutch intl version).
Edit: when it's stuck also the battery is drained very fast.
you might be right and maybe there is a connection between last update and all that bugs suddenly appears.
I update through odin to the newest firmware:
I9300XXEMB1 I9300OXAEMB1 I9300XXMB1 BTU
anyone have a clue?
Data wipe would be first start point really
I would start from that, but how come that it started on both phone at same time- doesnt it means its a software related?

No idea to be honest, are they both stock phones? Rooted? Could even be something inane like a recent app update that isn't working properly, could be almost anything

both unrooted, both running stock rom.
anyway if so, i guess you wont recommend to back all my app, right?
I would back then up, system data is most likely the cause, so my advice would be just restore app data only where necessary and important

You flashed an international i9300 Rom on to your AT&T 9300, they are different phones, and you are in the wrong forum
Hi, i have the GS3 GT-I9300 32GB (I9300BUEMA1 Baseband and JZO54K.I9300XXEMR2 Build version) Vodafone edition, bought it in Greece and i am experiencing a very annoying problem. The notification bar, in random times, like every 2-3 days or maybe weeks, stops working. I can't pull it down, until i restart the phone. But that doesn't solve the problem, cause after a while, it starts doing it again. The weird thing is that i have installed an app (MultiTouch tester) that shows that the screen is working on the top and all around. I have tried a lot of different ROM versions, first the Polish 4.1.2, then the UK and then the Greek, but none of them seem to solve the problem. I have sent it to the official Samsung service here and they have replaced the screen, but after a couple of days the problem appeared again.
Is there a solution or should i ask for my money back and get another phone, for example the new GS4?
In my own opinion, Vodafone is not a good company whatsoever. Go to Samsung updates website and download a different firmware and see if its Samsung's fault or Vodafone's.
If you do follow that, here's a tutorial on how to install.
