Have to constantly hard reset due to dead screen - help?

[nixnax05]

Hi all,

Just wondering if anyone else is having this problem with their S3, only happens every now and then, but in the last week it's happened 4 times. Basically, I'll press the home button while the phone is on standby to use the phone, and the screen won't come on. I try the power button on the side, still no response from the screen. My LED light is still flashing as I have unread emails etc, so it's like the phone is still on - but no response trying to turn screen on, and it only happens sporadically. I always have to do a hard reset when the issue arises and the phone starts up again and works normally. Has anyone else experienced this? I've only had the phone 5 months and its just started doing it in the last month or so. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated!

Scroll down the page, and have a read at the GS3 freezing and unresponsive thread. Many of us have had problems
