Hard to say.
Could also be a hardware issue.
I recommend to flash back stock ROM with stock kernel.
Maybe you have to wipe data (do factory reset).
Then check again.
Good luck !

You've already done the extreme of reinstalling a stock ROM and performing a factory reset. I'm also assuming you didn't install a bunch of apps before the problem started, though.
My advice would be: go back to stock ROM again, factory reset, and SLOWLY reinstall your apps. This will help narrow down what app could be causing your issue. (if it is an app)
No bumping threads after 54 minutes. Not cool. People here aren't at your beck & call :-/

sorry for that ,but this site is my only hope
i tried ..i put the stock rom without any apps installed.but i had the same problems..by example when i want to delete a widget from the screen the phone stucks a few seconds,and the came to normal..the home button had the same delay and the proximity sensor works with the same delay,when i want to close a call ,stays a 5-10 seconds to light up the screen..i dont know,what is with him,i m disperate
..and what is strange,by example when is on charge ,the home delay dissapeared,works normally,but the rest of the problems remain
comeone..nobody knows anything about my problems with phone?
1.send it to Samsung for warranty.
2.get your money back from "friend".
I think i had similar problems with you previously, even worse maybe. Battery shows charging while cable is unplugged. Some of the time it pops up a warning message "Unstable Voltage". I did the same thing as you, flashing roms, wiping x " i forgot how many times", factory resetting X times and so on. What solved the problem for me was ;
-> i took out the battery
-> left phone untouched for several days
-> put the battery back -> charged till full
-> wipe data, factory reset, wipe battery stats, wipe cache,dalvik as well, FIX permissions
-> flash latest stock rom ( 4.0.4 at that time )
-> reboot phone
-> root again ( flashing stock rom loses root ) using CF-Root
-> reboot to CWM recovery
-> wipe data, factory reset, wipe cache,dalvik as well, FIX permissions
-> flash PA (Paranoidandroid ROM - please follow the instruction from OP post) via CWM
->wipe data, factory reset, wipe cache, FIX permissions
-> reboot phone
-> wait for apps updated and then reboot to recovery and FIX permission for the final time and VOILA!!
The phone works great up till this moment. Not sure if you gonna solve your issue with the way i did it but might worth the try. Nothing to lose anyway it seems as you were hardcore-ing flashing roms and wiping data and such. Good Luck!
Certainly that i hope this will be able to relieve you of the unnecessary distress.

i tried to do all things that you sayed to me,without to leave the phone with no battery several days..dand nothing happend,the problems persist ..i dont know ,i dont have a guarantee,and the cost may be high,thanks anyway
UP
Your friend clearly sold you a dodgy phone. You should demand your money back and use the phone to beat him until he pays. That is my diagnosis and clearly the answer to your "problem".
today after wipe everything and flash de jelly bam rom ,custom kernel etc..doesnt work at all,but i removed the battery for 30 minutes,and when i put it back and openned it ,everything works very well..just a calibrate,and clearly now have no problems..how long it mentain,i dont know,but even now i dont know what it had .. mistery
so,what are you thinking,what is the cause?
There seems to be a weird issue with my Galaxy S3.
I had installed the Omega ROM v36 (upgrading all the way from v23 i.e 24,25.. serially) without wiping the data.
The phone was working fine until a few days back. Then suddenly the phone used to hang(like old nokia phones).
I tried calling the sim number and the call was going through but wasnt getting anything. The screen just stood there.
And then i had to reset the phone (Power 8 seconds) every time it happened.
Today I wiped the data and freshly installed the ROM. The same issue still exists.
It is really irritating. and even after reset-ing the phone the phone hangs the same way!
Please help someone.
Should I go back to stock? Something else?
Please!

But the problem is since v34!
I tried installing every update.
Nothing helped!
And which SD do I need to format? internal or external?
Did you experience this screen problem before the custom rom? Lets hope its not a hardware problem.
Try formatting your internal SD. Don't think your ext SD could affect it, though eject it just in case. Return it to stock as much as possible.
Dear xda-community,
my galaxy S2 is driving me nuts for some days because of a very weird problem.
After flashing NeatROM 5.3.1 some weeks ago my phone screen suddenly started to stutter for some seconds with losing signal strength. After losing the signal it stuttered again but suddenly crashed and I couldn't start it up again unless I remove the battery and place it back again. Then I went back to Stock ROM after my phone bootlooped for no reason. As I tested stock ROM to ensure the problem does not occur, the screen stuttering happened once again. I just flashed JellySNAP ROM and thought it was over, but here I am with the same problem.
The odd thing is that it only occurs as soon as my phone is losing signal, searching for an available network to connect or going into airplane mode and waiting some moments.
What I did:
Reflash ROM
Wipe cache + Dalvik cache
Full wiped before flashing Custom ROM
Wipe everything and flash Stock ROM
But none of these things helped me fix my problem.
Is there any solution to this problem or does anyone have similar problems?

Clean fully using GS2RomNuke @hawkerpaul then flash a new rom - it's got to be worth a try :good:
Try nuke scrpt.If that doesn't work either,then it must be a hardware issue,which means service center.

Just tried this out and flashed my ROM again. Somehow froze just right after boot, so I restarted it. But then it stuttered after going into Wi-Fi-Connection screen at the start. Luckily no crash, but I am still worrying about my phone... Gonna report after one day of usage

yep - reflash stock and use trianglaway to reset flash counter to zero and take back under warranty:good:
Okay guys, thank you very much for helping me out! :good: It looks like the problem still occurs, but at least I know when. Best example: I had about 28% battery lifetime left as this once happened. I just rebooted it and it suddenly told me that I only had 1% of battery left. So I think this is because of my faulty battery stat or even my faulty batteries. Gonna try a new battery just for reference.

Well... I wish I could, the problem is, that I got it as a present some months ago and the real owner of this phone bought the Korean SHW-M250S version some years ago so I don't have any warranty anymore... Perhaps I should just use it until it dies (or the new motorola block phone project is released )
ok,30 minutes ago my gs3 was next to me and I had music on then all of a sudden the ''Samsung Galaxy S III" splash screen appeared.It kept appearing and disappearing so I took the battery out for a while then inserted it and it turned on.5 minutes later the same thing happened and now it is working again but well this might happen again.What could be the problem ? can it be SDS ? but I had my gs3 for a year and a half so I doubt that.I'm running wanamlite 4.1.2,have been using this rom for almost a year.(except for trying out a few other roms sometimes).
Reflash your rom, try first without a wipe.

You can try this:-
Go to recovery and do factory reset. (You will loose all software installed by you, may b contact & sms too)
Wipe Cache & Dalvik Cache
Tried a factory reset and tried restoring to a an old backup,didn't help.I didn't try reflashing the rom, I doubt it will work because restoring to a backup that was working fine didn't help either.I'm thinking about giving it to samsung,hope they won't blame rooting and custom rom for the problem but I'm out of warranty period anyways.
Try another rom! But with a clean install! don't restore your nadroid backup data, use Titanium Backup for your apps.
I noticed that it happens when I actually use the phone(like for a few minutes) but when it's idle,it operates normally.
I don't have any other roms right now and I can't download any because my internet is limited currently.
UPDATE: It looks like the problem is the power button because when the phone does boot,the boot menu keeps showing up and when I pull the battery and insert it again,it boots automatically.I will get it fixed,thanks all.
I bought Galaxy S2 from one guy. And i have a problem.
I put mobile on charger every night. In the morning i wake up and the phone freeze. It has the samsung logo on screen and it freeze. So i need to restart it to start working. ( Happen 3/3 mornings ) .
Usually the mobile restart on itself example. Today mobile restarted like 4 times. It stand on table and restart on itself without any my action. Sometimes it restart 2 times in a row.
It has version 4.1.2 and this happens.
I usually have installed like 5 apps . Facebook, Outlook, Messanger, Skype, Viber, Fiverr.
I'm desperate don't know what can cause this problem

I think it's time to reflash the stock rom. Download from samfirmware or other websites then flash the files using odin. Doing a factory reset might solve the problem. (Go to the phones recovery, there are millions of guides, then select factory reset then clear cache partition). Do that first and if problems persist, do a reflash of the rom.
