It looks like a hardware defect. But I still recommend you to do a factory reset. Which firmware are you using now?

You can to try flash some rom

@cas_xp im usuing tahahawa's 2.2 v1.3 but ill give the factory reset a try. thanks!
@Emacore i cant flash anything becuase i don't have a working microSD slot....
UPDATE: doing a Reset Leaves the Phone hanging
also would it be possible to save pictures from the camera to the internal storage as i cannot use microsd cards?

There is a way to flash ROMs without an SD card. Guide here. WIND now has the Nexus S, maybe you'll want that as a replacement? I'm uploading the latest update to my ROM like, right now. Try flashing it with those instructions. Also try an app hat adds on-screen buttons.

thanks alot tahahawa! your the man . yeah im actually thinking of getting the nexus s

you are a fool why you have flashed I9000 firmware to I9003 device.
not the only option is service center

your phone is dead...in china have so many people like this also，cannot repair

Paper weight !!!!!!!

Dnt wory. It happens most of time with new users like u. For now take ur phone to service centre & give a fake reason to them. They will repair it. Now from next time dont do same mistake.

It't hard to recovery

You have screwed up your Phones bootloader. You can not enter download mode now. May be you can try the JIG. But then its of no use explaining about such methods to new users who cant understand. Just take it to service and act like a noob, just tell them you saw there was update available in KIES and you updated the FW. But after that your Phone did not boot. Thats all...

aw, don't be so mean to him, i made the exact same mistake only the second day after buying my i9003 (though things worked out differently for me - i only got the Phone!Computer screen; flashing another ROM helped)

LOL! Lucky one!
OP- Tell Samsung people that the phone started to heat up and re-booted randomly and then suddenly stopped it's functioning. They will work on this issue. In Asia,speacially India, they are gonna take nearly a month and a half to get this thing done. THe service guys are pretty lazy. There is no option to speed up the process,unless,you have luck on your side or you know the service guy

And you maybe flashed to death by the bill what Samsung Prepares in a FLASH of you dont have a warranty

Awww... dont be too hard on the poor guy. This reminds me of a thread created in the MIUI forums requesting a ROM for our i9003. The moderators response was "try flashing the i9000 ROM". So yeaaaaahhhh....

sorry, but that's definitely a brick! Fancy putting sugar in soup when salt is on the recipe....
Service center won't be able to detect your mistake as they can't revive it and find out what happened. Had you had a hardware failure while you were updating with Samsung Kies, service center might help you but if you were to tell them you updated with WRONG firmware they would not even repair it. *cough*

Congrats, You now have an Expensive Paperweight.

[Q] HELP! SGS3 AOKP ROM no signal when receiving calls

Hi, I'm new to XDA so please forgive my noobyness. I recently bought a Samsung Galaxy SIII (white, unlocked) here in Singapore. Since then, I've installed the latest stock roms, then tried out aosp custom roms, and finally settled with aokp after flashing CM9.
My problem is that whenever I receive a call and answer it, my signal suddenly disappears (no signal bars with a tiny "x" mark). Whenever I make a call, I dont hear the ringing tone. I cannot hear the person im calling or calling me, and I learned that the same is true for the other end. After we end the call (which never really happened), the signal goes back to full bars, which is my true signal strength (i have excellent signal almost all the time).
I can also send messages without any problems and connect with my data plan. It's just the calls. Not sure when it started. Probably last time I flashed an original stock rom, or started using custom roms. Please help, its killing me slowly.
Thanks

Cm9 for your phone is still under development of I'm not wrong.. Hence there can be bugs in it and that's the reason you are facing signal drop issue..
Report this in your forum so that it will be rectified.
However, flash a stock ROM and see if it is a faulty software or fault in your phone..

Thanks for the response. Unfortunately, XDA keeps telling me that I'm still new here (less than 10 posts) so I can only post in the general and Q&A forums, and not the development forums. And yes, I'm currently trying to clean up and install the latest stock rom. I'll report back on the progress. Any good soul out there who can notify the AOKP guys about this will receive a cookie.

you can actually ask in the QnA thread itself.. But all on galaxy s3 forum itself.. If you ask in general QnA forum you will not be getting complete help..
I really want to help u.. But since i don't own a s3, i don't know much of your device.. Still we both are Samsung family..

Okay..
I guess there is problem in your hardware.. Do one thing, flash the latest firmware available for your region and take it to your Samsung service center.. They will rectify the issue..
NOTE: before going to service center make sure that you have reset your flash counter using triangle away software.. Or else your phone warranty will be void..

[Q] Wrong IMEI

Didn't backup my efs folder...
I rooted my phone but everything was fine until it bricked
It bricked twice and I saved it twice but 3G is no longer working
Now, I can't make any call in UK (it says Mobile network is not available)
I realize that my IMEI is 004999010640000 but not a unique one
SIM card is working on other phones
I'm now on 2.3.6 stock rom, not rooted, zero count
1. Is IMEI causing this problem?
2. Is there anyway that I can repair IMEI by myself without losing the data of my phone?
3. If I bring this to Samsung, Is this phone still under warranty?
4. Is factory reset compulsory before bringing it to Samsung?
Thank you!

No way, you should take it Samsung service Center they will do it under warranty and your on stock ROM so not required to do Factory Reset, don't worry they will do it in 10 Min with out losing data.....

I heard that some staff will change the motherboard instead of doing it in 10 minutes
So what should I tell the staff?

If they will ask then tell them when 4~5 times a day. and remeber, when u reach there then u dont know anything abt xda and even dont know what does root n anything means. U want ur phone back thats it. U bought it due to fun and samsung branding.

Your device does not support software updating via kies
Googled it but it seems like changing (KOR) to (TGY) and wiping all the data is the only method.
Is this caused by a wrong sales code/IMEI?
Should I just flash 4.0.4 on my own?

Hi mate...
Back in the old days of S4 this problem was due to a incompatibility between bootloader / kernel .........maybe here is the same , you could try and flashback an stock kernel and see , also ask in the kernel thread maybe is a known problem

First time I flashed a ROM was years ago and it kinda ruined my phone, it had bugs etc. Nowadays I see no reason to flash a ROM in a brand new phone that has no issues and costs 700€ unless you feel adventurous . I might flash a ROM later when it will stop receiving updates and there's a stable ROM.
