phone keeps shutting down - 4.0.4 stock ROM w/latest OTA

[ronnienyc]

Anyone have a clue as to why a stock ROM GS3 (after the latest update) would be randomly shutting itself off? (Ithought this issue was to have been fixed in the latest ROM?)
I have LTE disabled, and only a few apps on there...

I had mine exchanged for this very reason, I was still in the trial period and received a new unit.

I'm having the same problem with mine every 3 days or so.. I also had the sms code 98.. But a simple phone call to sprint fixed that.. I should of said something about the restarts but I figured nothing would fix it besides an exchange which I plan on doing maybe next week..

Wait, so your saying this problem started happening AFTER you did the OTA LG8 Update...or its been happening since you purchased the phone? If its been happening since you purchased the phone, I would strongly advise exchanging it or wreaking hell on earth in a sprint store if they refuse. When you pay $500.00+ for a piece of hardware, there is absolutely no excuse for it not to work for years. I have not experienced this problem with my phone, however, I would strongly advise installing BlazerROM or StrongSteves Blue ROM. It could be that the OTA update you did was a bad flash. Find a stock tar around here, ODIN back to stock, and do the OTA updates again...or install a custom ROM like I advised earlier.

Yes, it started shutting down (not restarting) AFTER I did the OTA LG8 Update.
I spoke with Samsung last night and they offered to pay shipping both ways if I send it in to have it fixed.
Also, they suggested a hard reset, which I did, so I will see how it goes today.
I have only had the phone for two days so far...and I may have Sprint replace it if the issue persists.
