Let the moisture removed for at least 24 hrs before you do anything... when you restart your device in wet/moisturize situation you will damage the pin contacts.
Read item 9 in the link given... there are many guide on this on google and xda... read it fully before you do anything else other then pulling out the water/moist inside it.

That's the HTC marking when you dropped your phone in water.

I have heard this issue alot on xda, and i'll say its pretty much bricked, if you can't turn it on or get into the bootloader or recovery tmobile/wind/htc wouldn't be able to, other people with the same issue said they got it replaced with no problems, so you got nothing to worry about
Buy a new battery.

OMG another one
Its not bricked dude, its a battery failure. See my thread, I've got the same issue, its solved by replacing the batttery..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1561104
You can call up HTC North America [email protected] 866-449-8358 if you are in US, they will ship you the battery free of cost.
When I called them up they asked me to ship the phone back, however I had also had unlocked the bootloader voiding the warranty, so I took a chance and told them I tested the phone at local tmo center it works with replacement battery (even though I hadn't)...they said no need to ship the phone then...we'll have the battery sent out to you...and it arrived in 3 business later although I had to wait quite long as there was weekend in between...
BTW what ROM/Kernel/recovery combo were you using before it died ?

We can't blame NRGZ's ROM for it, as its the most popular ROM for this phone and to my knowledge just the ROM can't cause such a bug, the kernel might (even i'm not sure for that but still)...can any devs (Adjust? ) give their opinion on it ?

I just got my friends ray and it has a display problem
The thing is ; The display lights up but nothing can be seen on screen :/
After shaking it a bit it SOMETIMES shows the display
No cracks or anything on the display:O
Any fix ?
Im guessing its hardware but ill just use wotan server for a try
EDIT; Used wotan server flash .238 didnt work >_<
EDIT: Sometimes when I remove the battery when the screen goes dark and put it in again
And it works fine :O
But then it starts again :/
So its hardware for SURE 100%
Any fixes ?
Has he damaged it some way (dropping it?)?
If possible, use warranty, else open it yourself and seek for loose wires.

What if there is some sort of circuit shorting? If the problem is physical...u can check the battery terminals for any fault...or may be it is due to moisture...now don't think of me as a fool...its just my thought...so try some kind of drier to demoisturize...hope it fixes the problem if my assertion is correct.

So my phone doesn't light up at all, no orange light, no boot, no sound when i plug it into the computer...
I've done the unplug and plug back in without battery, pull the battery, leave it out for a while, try to boot into hboot, nothing seems to bring any light or life to the phone...
I'm S-On right now and was following the instructions on Nil's thread on updating to the newest firmware in post 3 of his thread... It finished the first stage of flashing and then went dark, nothing from that point on... Any ideas?

By chance do you have access to a external battery charger or a friend with a thunderbolt or rezound to test if the battery died?
I've had this happen during a ruu flash where the battery died and I had to charge the battery in my thunderbolt to bring it back

If it's really bricked then they won't be able to check it. Once I sent back a Rezound on ICS with an unlocked bootloader and they didn't care and when I sent my bad nexus back, I completely forgot to unroot it and sent it back with CWM, CM9 and all my personal data and they didn't care. They don't check it they just flash it back to stock

Get better battery stats from the play store, and let it run for a charge cycle.
Also turn off all the silly Samsung stuff like face awake etc etc

Hi.
I had the same problem with one SGS3 from two I bought.
The one worked fine, but the second restart twice and more a day. I changed it in the shop. But the problem was still there. The akku was hot and after 2 hours without any input the akku was 0%.
I changed the phone the second time in the shop.
But also this device had the problems, sometimes the phone doesn't see the akku.
Then I had the idea, I looked into the device pressed the akku with my thumbnail and the akku worked.
With a little paper I fix the akku and everything is fine until today.

I am not sure this was posted or not, however if it has, please point me to the right direction as I am not able to find it.
Situation:-
Using the phone as per normal. It auto lock or manual lock it. Wanna unlock/wake up the phone it doesnt. This happened once in awhile not sure when as unable to determine the cause as sometimes running a game and I lock it and sometimes lock it without running anything i.e. back to home. To wake up, I reboot the phone by long pressing on/off button. Was using CheckRom ICS... And at one occurance the phone really died on me and unable to reboot no matter what I did. Sent in to SC and got back a new Motherboard.
Now it is happening again. Now in JB 4.1.2 (OmegaRom). The phone just fell in to a deep sleep and cant wake up unless I reboot the phone. I hope I dont get the forever slumber/sudden death situation again.
Anyone can give guidance or advise on how to check what is the matter or anyone having the same experience?
Flash back to stock and check if it occurs. If it does use triangle away and send it back in mate

Do you get it also on touchwiz roms? Which OmegaRom are you using?
Wich kernel are using my mates? Maybe that is problem, combination firmware and kernel...

Was using siyah kernel... so now testing Perseus and see wtr this happened or not...
Just happened when I have monster warlord running and locked it.. when I unlock... it happened again... must be something like not enuf ram or went into deep sleep... very strange indeed. Nevertheless change to Perseus to test out different kernel for now...

Download this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.vinagre.android.emmc_check&hl=en and post the screenshot. It might be SDS
Same happened with my phone. Go to see what it's up to and suddenly its not responding. The only option is to hold power down until it reboots.
It would also do it on in coming calls and managed to delete a text which arrived shortly before it froze.
Hoped upgrading to the latest firmware would help, didn't. Going without root, nope. Freezing apps in Titanium, still no joy.
Finally this morning I had enough and went for a full wipe. Very little installed but no problems since.
Would suggest doing the same, especially if you plan to sell the phone anyway.

Have the same problem with mine, using the latest wanam stock rom and every now and again the phone will either just restart or lock with the screen off (led notification will keep blinking however).
Just trying the official Vodafone rom now through Odin. If this doesn't solve it I think the phone will have to go back.
To note: issue appeared after installing some root apps. Notably adfree and beats drivers. Anybody else have either installed?

Please keep this on topic:
Seems like a common issue, I've now unrooted my phone and loaded stock 4.1.2 from Sammobile using odin, reset the binary counter, removed SD card and i'm still having crashes and hangs. Seems my phone is on the way out?

When did it happen? Was it around Wednesday last week? Just thinking that maybe an updated app or something?
I have now updated again using kies with the official 4.1.2. I have no problems with restarts when using the stock apps. I have however had issues with the google servers and now believe this to have been the main reason for the crashes earlier (Christmas new phone activation traffic?).
Out of interest, have you been running adfree or the beats audio driver? I had mine working all day yesterday, installed both and then the hangs started coming back again.
Also worth noting that adfree now states that a newer version is available when loading up, but non exists (that i know of?)

I am not selling it to some innocent 3 person I am exchanging it with note 2 by paying the difference amount at a local Samsung retail store (just sending back there own Frankenstein to them)
And about culture my friend I don't need a lesson from a person who doesn't even have the sensibility to understand that his comments can hurt others(u started It fIrst)..
As today Is my last day in the s3 forum I don't want to sign off on a bitter note so sorry if I have hurt u in anyway.

I can't say for sure, but around Wednesday isn't unreasonable.

I do run AdFree, and yeah, I saw the notice about the new version - it's a different app entirely... still called AdFree, uninstall the old one, and install the new one. Not sure why they did that.
I'm at a loss - I just reinstalled XELL4, and it's still doing it. Short of doing a full wipe and starting afresh (which I really can't be bothered with), I don't know what else to try. Was working fine up until now.
