Samsung Galaxy S3

[teach69]

Phone worked fine today, I plugged it in & charged it up at the end of the day.  However I went to check on a notification & I see that my screen is blank, then turns red slowly.  I've tried rebooting, taking out the battery, etc. nothing helps.

Is the battery dead?  Try rebooting the phone while it is still plugged into the charger.  Try a spare battery.  If you do not have a spare battery you may be able to find a friend with a GS3 to try their battery or stop by a Verizon store and ask them to test it for you.  If the battery is not the problem and repeated battery pulls do nothing, then it's probably a hardware problem.  Does the phone actually reboot and the only problem is the blank/red screen?  If so can you boot into Safe Mode?
