it is a known issue with CWM.
You didn't do anything wrong, nor is there anything messed up. This is a known issue with ClockWorkMod at the moment. There is a 'fixed' version (unofficial) floating around somewhere, but it's not ideal. Depending on why you're turning your phone off, there are a number of alternatives:
1. put your phone in airplane mode while charging - this turns off all the radios, so your phone will charge *MUCH* quicker than it would otherwise. You can, of course, turn the display off, if the light is bothering you
2. Simply put the phone in silent mode (and either put it face down or turn the display off) if you're doing this while you're asleep.
There's an explanation on the ClockworkMod thread, but it doesn't really matter - fact is, that's how it is (for now).
Thank you Orange Bandit. I shut off my phone only to feel better about it charging, not getting hot I suppose. I always got this feeling charging the phone while it's on isn't too healthy. I think I will try the airplane mode!

I don't turn my phone off ever, unless it's locked up or something. I do have an app that I got from the market called CT Scheduler that automatically reboots my phone at a specified time (I have it at 2am every morning, while i'm asleep). Aside from that, my phone is literally always on.
The phones nowadays are designed to be used all the time - charging it with the phone on won't hurt it, but it most definitely charges faster in airplane mode. Often, if my battery is low and I've got 15-20 minutes to drive somewhere, I'll put it on airplane mode to charge in the car, just to get a bit more juice.
Somebody did post in that thread with a fix to the recovery. I have had it for some time now and it works great.
Is the fix official? Or at least work as well as the original wit no hiccups?

hey folks, im coming over from the galaxy s section...besides not staying off to charge, are any other problems reported? for instance, we use a program called odin to flash without cwm. its a kind of fail-safe. but, i cant get my pc to recognize the phone....anything similar with your phones? not looking for help necessarily, just similar occurrences.
Alright so ive used the search and couldnt find anything. I have a rooted s2 running eagles blood v1.1 and last night i flashed over lite'ing theme and now my phone screen will shut off and wont allow me to turn it back on, i have to hold the power button and it restarts. Ive reflashed eagleblood even recovered back to stock with just root and it continues to do it.
Any help would be much appriciated :/

Probably best to post this in the rom developer's thread. Any number of things can cause this behavior.
I would but my post count is low and i am unable to post there, so for now i am seeking help here.
ive tried un-rooting the phone, flashing the stock rom and no root, but have the same issue.
Did you wipe the caches in recovery?

i have tried this already, does not work :/
I'm having the same problem on rooted stock rom. It's getting more and more frequent. The phone just refuses to come back on after going to sleep. If I plug in the power/usb cable, it actually makes the connected noise as if it's actually awake but the screen stays off.
I've uninstalled all cpu and memory tweaking apps and am still experiencing the issue.

ive tried everything, flashed over and over, un rooted, different roms etc nothing has worked so i just used zedomax's stock rom to restore the phone ( problem still continues) called tmobile and will have my replacement within a day or so, nothing else i can do i suppose.
though my problem did seem to start right when i flashed lite'ing theme for eaglesblood (not saying that caused it )

im starting to think it is a phone issue myself, going to find out Tuesday when my new one arrives though i am hoping it was an error on my part because this phone has the chance to be fantastic.
I was having random shutdowns with my 1st phone, the thing is I never did have stock long enough (rooted after 45min of gettjng) to see if it was the phone or root/rom(s).
My second phone is working great without any random shutdowns, but I'm still stock(running on second day of testing).
Gonna root and flash tomorrow and hope everything remains the same if not back it goes before my remorse period ends.
I really think it's phone related rather then a rom because I've never had this problem with previous phones.
So I would suggest on exchanging it.

i do appreciate the feed back, and from everyone who did give it. after lots of research and back and fourth between stock and custom roms i definitely wanted it to be the rom so it was fixable but im about 96% sure its the actual phone its self.
I tried searching, but I couldn't find anyone with the same problem as me and I don't know what to do.. I'm kind of freaking out. The last update I installed was darkside beta02, and I was really liking it minus a few connection and call issues. Anyways, I was in my car earlier today and picked out a song on play music. The phone instantly turned off, and it appeared that it was about to reboot so I didn't think much about it. Nope. When it starts to turn on it rarely makes it past the samsung screens that pops up right when you start the phone, but it has made it as far as the swirling samsung s splash screen thing. It just acts like it is rebooting from that part and it's like a never ending cycle until I remove the battery. I can get the phone into download mode by plugging it into the computer, but it only stays on for a few seconds and then goes back to it's never ending reboot. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated, I really can't afford to have bricked this phone
UPDATE: I managed to restore the phone to stock, and I proceeded to root and put darkside beta 7.1 on it. Everything was running fine... For a few hours. It began to do the same rebooting described above, but now instead of looking like it's going to boot normally it goes straight to a screen that says "Firmware encountered an issue. Please sleect recovery mode in Kies and try again." with the phone model, "Custom Binary Download: No" and "Current Binary: Samsung Official" up top. It only stays at this screen for a few seconds before it starts back into it endless half-reboot. Any suggestions? This is frustrating me A LOT.
uh, have you tried charging it? Honestly at first blush it sounds like a dead battery.

The problem is that I can't do anything but watch the phone start up for about 10 seconds, or be in download mode for about 10 seconds. Not much time to do anything.
That is why you reset flash counts before you go in... Google is your friend and try to unroot somehow--

I had this exact thing happen to me today!! For the last week or so, I would get a random reboot up to four times a day. This started happening after I flashed Whitehawkx UVLDE zip. What I did was left the battery in the phone let the constant reboot run until the battery died. Then I would try to get into download mode, but then it would reboot before Odin recognized it. I left the usb plug in the phone and took the battery out, the phone would still do the rebooting vibration. I just stayed with trying to get the phone to stay on long enough to get recognized by Odin. Leave the drained battery out of the phone for a while (your choice of how long, I left it for about forty minutes) and replace it, hopefully it stays on long enough to get recognized. Finally it stayed on long enough and I re-flashed ULKL1. Now I'm back to running TDJ's DARKSIDE. EVOLUTION.2 [BETA 3] and I haven't had any reboots where as before it would reboot within fifteen minutes.

Thank you! And when you say replace the battery, do you mean get a whole new one or put in the dead one?
Just put the dead one in.
My advice is similar to his, but without killing the battery. Open odin on your computer, and input what your going to input into pda and have everything ready to go, so all you have to do is press start and its off. Now, start with the phone turned off, hold both volume buttons and plug in the usb cable from the computer quickly! Have your hand ready on the mouse and ready to click start. Soon as odin recognizes click that start button! Hopefully everything happened so quick, that the phone will take the flash. However, if it doesn't, then I'm afraid the only answer you would have left is to use a jig to reset the counter and take it in to be replaced.

The thing is, it starts to start up, and you can clearly see that it's rooted. I feel like they won't honor my warranty.
I was rooted with CM10.1.0 and was casually using the phone until it randomly turned off. I turned it back on and the only thing that happened was the "Galaxy SIII" screen flashed and turned off again. I popped out the battery multiple times to be welcomed with the same problem again. I can't boot into Download or Recovery at all. Anyone know how to fix this? (btw im on AT&T SGH-i747)

Please don't provide false or miss leading information.
To OP. Fully charge your battery or use another one if its corrupt.
Try booting up into both recovery or download mode using the proper combination.
Use this guide to get your phone fully working again.

In some instance (very rare) your phones hardware can malfunction, but seeing how it still boots up I doubt its that's.

Can't hurt to try.
Definitely recommend download mode with cable plugged in to computer. Are you sure recovery doesn't work while plugged in to power?

Yep. It just loops on the splash screen. I'll try charging it to full and repeating your solutions. (It died off at 80%, very strange). Thanks for your replies though!
Ok guys, seems that my issue isnt the phone being bricked. I left the battery out all night and popped it in the next morning. CM loaded just fine. However after about 10 seconds of it loading, the power menu flashed, i clicked cancel, and then it immediately shut down again, and the usual problem continued. Any thoughts? (btw the phone died at 80% battery the first shut down it had, right now it should have been nearly 100% after charging) Also, connecting it via USB doesn't help at all. Sometimes the blue recovery words flash when i try to boot into recovery, but nothing happens after that.

It could be a bad battery. Might also be the battery contact points. Worse case is something is wrong with power channels on the Mobo. If it is the last then you will have to warranty the phone if you're still covered. I would borrow a battery first to rule out whether or not it is the battery itself.

The power button seems to operate normally, but that could also be one of the things that are causing problems. Once i find someone nearby with an S3 battery i'll see if it's actually a battery problem (most likely the case).
I'd thought i'd mention this as well, whenever i pop in the battery, the phone vibrates and tries to turn on, but doesnt actually do it. Anyone have any ideas what could be causing this? power button maybe, but battery?
If the battery out all night boots past the splash screen maybe you could, if you haven't, leaving it out and first thing try download mode. I've been in bad spots but this pretty crappy. Probably to technical for me but Good luck. Let us know how you do if none of the posts help.
Found the problem. The power button is always acting as if it's being pushed down when it actually isnt. The phone starts up perfectly when i hold the phone horizontally with the power button facing down. then when i put it back into portrait mode, the power menu flashes, and its turns off. any knowledge on how to fix this then?

i apologize if this has been solved but i am on a very tight time frame as i need this phone for work and cant spend any longer searching. my phone randomly turned off by itself this morning and will not turn back on. it gets to the samsung splash screen and the screen just goes black and the phone wont do anything, its like the screen is stuck off, i have to take the battery out to make it turn do anything at all again. it was stock this morning, never been rooted or anything, i just rooted it about an hour ago and installed twrp and flashed jedi invasion 5 on it in hopes it would help. now it gets past the splash screen and to the initial setup screen but it only stays on it for about 3 seconds before the screen goes black again and i have to take the battery out for it to do anything again. im not an expert by any means but i have flashed note 2's and played with them a bit and know my way arround them for the most part. any help would be EXTREMELY appreciated.

I would make sure you have to correct drivers installed for the phone on your computer and ODIN back to stock. You can give that a try and see if it helps.
I'll check that out when I get home but I'm pretty sure everything is right, it was doing it before I even flashed anything so I think something else is the problem

Faulty battery or power button. You can try ODIN back to stock, not likely it will help.
It's not a battery or power button problem. Before I rooted it if I took the battery out and turned it on again it would turn on fine if I kept the screen from turning off. and the battery was staying charged, and if it wer a power button problem why would it work to turn the phone on but not again after its on?

My vote is a faulty power button. Has been known to happen on the S3. Could be power issues though. Bad battery could be the culprit. If flashing stock does not work see if you can get a battery to test out.

ok so i flashed stock and it fixed it temporarily. after i flashed it it was working great so i decided to root it and flash jedi. so i did this and it still worked great. (at this point i should mention that the sim card in the phone has been deactivated this whole time) so since its working i activate the simcard, restart the phone, and the problem started again. so i took the sim card right out and turned it back on and it works perfectly fine without the sim card in... what do you guys figure? should i try a new sim card? has anyone ever herd of this happening before?
EDIT: tried my other sim card in it and it doesn't work either, so it snot the simcard itself
