If you have insurance then go thru TMobile, if not, you are screwed. Samsung will not help you or anyone that purchases their products. All you will get is a "software reset" along with a message that it "passed all functional testing"
Check the pins on the usb port on the phone and on the charger, I read someone having an issue and he had some dirt covering on of the pins inside the usb on the phone. Try cleaning them somehow without damaging...

Have you tried a different charger? Sounds like it could be a short in the cable.
Trigger + Overstock = Awesomeness

Odin, see if that works first
I have had the same problem happen when I was running an app called powermax and trying to charge at the same time. Turned the app off and charged just fine. A friend of mine had this exact same issue with the same app.
It is chargring a little bit bit now but only bit but at snails pace and if I am using it It does not charge is it port or battery

what happens when charger in connected ? any sign of life ??
leave battery out for 5 mins, (make sure it has some charge)
do the 3 button combo THEN insert the battery, still holding the 3 button combo.
let me know the results
How/why would the battery fall out? If its a new phone just return it and start out fresh. Alternatively, the jig should work.

Hey Guys,
I have been following this thread since a while and finally took the plunge with the S3.
it was a blue s3 and i loved it.
All stock, not rooted nothing..
So i was downloading my games and apps the first day all went well
the second night, i bought NOVA 3, and put it for charge while downloading the 1.7 gb data for the game over wifi.
i woke up in the morning and the phone is dead, it shows a yellow connect it to kies message.
I dont know what happened?
took it to the service center, they tried re-installing the firmware, but no avail. finally told me they have to replace the motherboard it was fried.
I fought with them and managed to get a replacement unit which im gonna get on monday.
The ordeal aside, i want to know, is it possible this happened because i downloaded too many games(6 actually)
each with about 400 mb data.
can a phone get bricked if i download nova 3's data of 1.6 gb
cause i am going to get all my games again.
so help with the solution!!
probably a 1 off defective unit.
You left it charging overnight right, have you considered a power surge may have fried it?
It's better to wake up early in the morning and put it on charge than to leave it overnight.
Sorry about your loss though.

Not true. Modern mobile batteries like s3' have overcharge guard

To answer your question, you just had a defective unit that's all.

I think heating was the problem... I remember few guys with sgs2 with same problem reporting..

I don't think the game's could do anything wrong to you while downloading.
Btw while playing games on SIII take care as the Phone's temperature reaches the sky and literally i have to close down the game because the phone becomes too hot.

power surge and over charge are totally different things. over charge protection would not prevent a power surge.
Most probably just a defective unit.
I left my HTC Sensation charging overnight once, and somehow there was an app running continuously and when I woke up the phone was scalding hot to touch. I freaked out and pulled the battery and let the whole thing cool before I booted it up again. Might not be relevant but just goes to show that our phones can take more heat than we think.

Well I have been charging my handsets overnight for at least 6 years now and I have never had a fried nokia, hero, desire, sgs2 or sgs3 ever.
Charging overnight is safe

yeah , modern batterys not like old batterys
Sorry if that was asked here before...
Now and then( not every time) my N4 doesn't charge to the end...it usually stops at 77% - and that's after being connected to the charger for over 5-6hours at night...
Anyone else has same problem??
Thanks

same thing happen to me in my samsung galaxy y and the problem is the battery, try to replace your battery
Have finally noticed what is happening..
Phone stops charging few times a second...
Have noticed it when it was making low battery sound when charging from 2%...moving cable around did not help at all so it seem it is not USB socket in the mobile.
Same was happening this morning after I came to the mobile to unplug it from charger...don't have other cable to checkvif it is cable problem...but it doesn't happen all the time...
