Yup it was replaced.

Same thing.

it was in my pocket and after an hour or so its blank.

Suggestions anyone? I am planning to tell them to give my money back or something. Sick of this phone.

Just get rid of Samsung as soon as you can. Once my S2 died in 15 months I swore off Samsung products.

I just wanted one Smartphone which would last me for years, got Apple.

I am so thinking of the same.

Holy hell, man. Twice...
I remember I got my S3 right along with you from HS18, so ours should be from the same manufactured batch, right? I haven't had any problems except some heavy lag for a while and even that got resolved later (touch wood?).
Good luck at the service center :/

I am so frustrated right now.

Any pointers on warranty post this repair ?[DOUBLEPOST=1372241921][/DOUBLEPOST]Ok It may not be motherboard after all.

Something to do with charging and battery getting drained out.
