uhg i hate this stupid msg..
i got it all day long on my old samsung balckjack (I607)
anyway...
my tilt 2 started doing it also, fixed it. if i recall right i just re-entered the info and it worked fine...
last night i was using my phone as a router (just moved cable is yet to get hooked up) and it was fine, till i work up it was locked up, did a reset and my data hasnt worked since.
i tinkered with it for a couple hours and ended up reflashing a couple times

Okay, I've had my S3 since July of 2012. It has worked perfectly up until about 3 weeks ago. It has just started rebooting randomly and it says it's not sending texts, but the people I'm texting say they receive the message that supposedly fails to send like 5 or 6 times. I've spent the last 2 weeks trying to find a solution online and couldn't find anything. I have flashed probably 15 different roms, including stock rooted. Now I am on complete stock unrooted with stock recovery and I'm having the same issues. I used odin to return to stock. I only have 4 apps installed aside from the bloatware that comes with the phone. I'm sure the texting issue is with T-mobile's service, but the rebooting can't be. It's random, but I can always tell when it's about to do it because the screen will come back on right after I lock it and a few seconds later it will reboot. I have also taken the phone apart to see if the power button is jammed and it wasn't. I removed the actual power button and put it back in just to be sure. The phone still reboots randomly. Is anyone else having this issue and if so have you found a way to stop it? Any suggestions will be appreciated. Thank you for looking.
I guess nobody has had these issues.
Sounds like a defective phone.

It would of been easier if you had warranty on to just return it instead of going through all that hassle.

I have the same issue, pretty sure its the power button sticking. I'm using the home button to wake it up and a widget on the lock screen to lock it for now until I send it in.

It stopped. I don't know what it was, but I ran stock for a few days and it just quit. Didn't do anything, but flash it back to stock, It did it for a couple of more days after I flashed it back to stock and then it just randomly quit. It's been almost a full week now and no random reboots. If it starts happening again then I will probably just get a replacement. I do have the insurance through T-mobile, but I don't want to pay the deductible.
Could some dust etc. making power button stuck causing reboots? It could also be unstable rom. If you are oc/uv 'ing the phone that could also do that

I had a similar problem with my Amaze, turns out one of the connector pins to the battery was miss aligned and would on occasion cross the line and short. Luckily nothing catastrophic but the phone would just reboot, sometimes continuously. After I straightened it out, problem solved.

I'm actually having this exact same issue, as well as crashes which seem to happen when copy/pasting text. Reboots, spamming people supposedly failed messages, the works....
And I'm with Sprint.
This is the SECOND S3 that has done this to me. I returned my first one after being fed up with it, guessing it must have been a hardware problem since I couldn't find anyone else that had this issue.. but this one has done it too, so I just figured I had to accept it....
phsh I wouldn't accept a piece of hardware that acts like that... bug 'em til they fix it or get you something else like the s4

Interesting to read this. I got my S3 in October, and it just started doing this. Twice it has simply rebooted, both times have been after I uninstalled an app. My phone is completely stock, unrooted. Never been rooted. I took it out of the box and updated it to JB and haven't done anything else. I'm not getting any messaging issues, just the reboots. I'm using Nova Prime, and uninstalling by dragging the icon to the trash can.
I'm not sure what caused mine to stop, but it did. It hasn't done it again since it stopped either. I flashed back to complete stock, unrooted and used triangle away. It was still doing it for maybe a week or two after that, but then it just stopped. It has been working fine ever since. That includes trying 4 or 5 different roms after it stopped just to see if it would do it again. Been running wicked on the same phone for months now without any of the issues I previously had. If your phone is doing this then I suggest either waiting to see if it stops on it's own like mine or get it replaced.
Last night something made my screen turn on and stay on until my battery died. Now if this wasn't strange enough, when I finally got enough charge in it to boot it up, com.android.phone started crashing which means I haven't had service all day. Google calendar has been crashing as well if it helps, but everything else has been fine including wifi. I've restarted my phone several times throughout the day and even reflashed the radios, all to no avail. Does anybody know a fix? I'm running lifeless v12 rooted and unlocked, let me know if you need to know more and I'll gladly provide it.
p.s. ever since this morning my battery percentage has been going up by a couple % every little while before it goes back down. Not sure if it's related in anyway but I'm not really complaining.
Hard reset would be the best option. Then just leave it for like a day to make sure it is working.

Sorry but what is a hard reset in terms of android? Is it just a Factory data reset? Thanks for the response btw.
Well I did the factory reset and that fixed it. I had to do that from recovery though since settings crashed when ever I tried applying the reset.... Thanks again for the help!
Hey guys,
I need some help ASAP!!!
Problem:
1) My phone for the past few days has been giving me issues with the power button. I looked up references on how to fix here on XDA. I took the phone apart & the button just seemed to be stuck. I cleaned the phone & pulled out the tab lightly (hoping it would fix the issue) yesterday, which seemed to work. Today phone started cycling again & got stuck in the boot loader. I have removed battery several times but it does not load up.
2) Im running CM10.1 from a EL19 Kernal which i have been using for almost 4 months. At this time I dont have my external memory card (had to remove it to run a program for my wifes phone) so i dont have any of my backups to restore.
3) But i need my phone like now!!! I use my phone for work & i cant be without it all day.
Please help

OK. If you have that from which I suffered a few weeks ago, the behavior extends to the recovery menu. Type in my moniker and the words "power button insanity." You'll find it.
You should try to return to stock, as you may not be remaining on CM. You're braver than I, since you accessed the hardware button.
If you can get into the bootloader, try a one-click stock restore.
Regardless, just go to a Sprint store in Miami that has a tech on staff that knows what they are doing (ie, not a complete rulebook quoter). Rely on Google reviews to identify the right store. Some of this is psychological, just remain calm, hie yourself over to the tech, and ask him or her to slap the software fix that Samsung recently (early summer 2013) made available for this exact problem. Tell him or her that you're willing to give it a shot prior to sending off and waiting for a replacement phone.
Note: If you ask about this soi-disant fix over the phone, they'll likely deny its existence. But it works, and I haven't had a problem since.
I got back to my rooted jellyverse after the patch. With CM, you are not going to be so lucky. Hope your backed up.
Good luck.

Well I finally got it fixed. I rebooted it by returning the phone back to Gingerbread stock full restore "rooted" with a one click. Then I flashed the EL29 directboot one click - Thanks Rwilco12 - & reinstalled Cyanogenmod. It took me all of about 10-15 minutes since i already had the software saved on my computer. I lost all my data on my phone but im glad i had everything that i needed saved to my external SD.

Outstanding news, sir. This is what we like to hear. I'd recommend backing everything up after the hard labor of getting things back the way you like it, especially since you use this as a primary business device. Titanium Backup is my go-to for call logs, sms and contacts. With cloud sync hooks, you should be able to reinject everything back where you left off.

Just got a P600 4 days ago. Worked great till this morning. Turned it on and wifi was turned off. Tried to turn it on and it keeps sliding back to off position. The same for blue tooth. Tried a regular reset and factory reset. Neither helped. Couldn't find anything in the forums about this specific issue. Don't know what else to do.
Did you install anything? Root? What have you done to the device since you got it?

Installed TWRP from bigbiff's thread in the original development. Everything went well. Had not decided on a rom yet so I was waiting to flash. Wifi was working a couple of days after I installed the recovery.

Hi,
Did you find what the problem was in the end?
I am experiencing the same problem since one month now (12 June). The wifi doesn't switch on neither the bluetooth. The "led" remains light green forever...
I addressed the problem to the local customer support service (Italy) and got the response that they cannot do anything because my device was bought in US, neither if I paid them.
Since then I have rooted the device,
I did factory reset
Rooted the device
Erased some files that are suppose to solve the same problem in S4
Tried flashing various mods
removed and repluged the battery
Nothing helped.
I don't believe that it is a hardware problem as it occured all of a sudden without any reason (hitting or damaging the device). Unfortunately I am totally ignorant on android. Right now I am looking for a way to undestand at least if this is a hardware problem in order to give up and go buy a Ipad (at least you can pay them for fixing their own devices).....
In any case thanks in advance for any feedback you may have

I sent my P600 in about 3 weeks ago. According to the reciept that was sent back with it, they replaced the wifi / bluetooth component. It came back with all my data and accounts still set up on it so i do not think its a software issue. They didnt charge me for the repair but im in the US.
Hello guys,
Few weeks ago I started having the same issue. If I turned my wifi off for any reason whatsoever, I wasn't able to turn it on again. I searched a bunch of forums with people trying to figure out how to solve that same problem, but no real solution...well... there is the obvious one, sending the device to guarantee. Unfortunatly, in my case, that wasn't an option, so I decided to start some experiments of my own.
I was able to find a workaround, it's not a solution since the problem will appear again given the same circunstances.
Keep in mind that this worked for me, but I cannot tell for sure if it will work for you. Anyway, if you have this problem and guarantee it's not a option I would give it a try before starting to think about opening the device or even replace the rom.
The workaround is really simple:
1 - Go to the Connections menu in Settings (where you turn on/off the wifi, bluetooth, etc);
2 - Turn on Flight mode;
3 - Turn on Wifi/Bluetooth (depending on your problem, apparently they both seem to happen);
4 - Turn off Flight mode.
And it's done. As I said before, this works for me and I can't guarantee that it WILL work for you.

Hello everyone, so i got my device yesterday, it's the NA version and it was ok, today i recieved the update of 100mb(same version as the first one) 1nd it fixed the gpay too. But the phone shutted down alone twice and only been able to boot by volume up and power. I dont know if it's because of the update or no because it's been only 2 days since i got it. But am i the only one who got the sudden shutdown? Didnt the OP 7 pro has an issue like that??
Edit: by the end of the day, it happened for the 5th time now. really ?!! I'm the only one?!
Edit2: i did a factory reset and i hope it fixes it, will keep updates
Edit 3: factory reset didnt fix it, but what did( and i hope) it's disabling the bubbles notifications, so it didnt happen since 3 days now.
