Help Dead GS3 -- HELP!!

[jeff1penny]

So, yesterday, my Galaxy S3 just died on me and I have been unable to get it to stay on for more than 2 seconds.......Had it at 95% Battery Power and it just shut off....if I hold down the power button and home button it boots up, but then shuts off within 2 seconds....went down to Verizon and they tried swapping batteries, still does the same thing.

Anyone else experiencing this issue? I also tried a reset of my phone, (Power Button, Up Volume & Home Button), it reset the phone to factory defaults but it's still doing the same thing.

Verizon stores in my area don't have any in stock and I will need to wait for a new one to come in, but if anyone has any other suggestions I could try in the meantime, that would be great!

I appreciate your responses in advance!

Thanks

That sux! Call the 800 number and they will ship one out to you overnight. They will bill your credit card for the second phone, but will credit it back once they receive the original one back. I had to do it with mine because the mic only recorded static. It took over 1 hour on the phone with them, but they were really nice and helpful in sending out the new one.

ya, except Verizon said they're not shipping any out until the 19th, so now I have to wait until Monday to get it :-(

They told me that too, but surprised me by delivering a 32gb white version in two days...I already have my second one, so they are definitely shipping them out.
