So I've had my S3 mini for over 10 months now and I've been flashing ROMs on it (mainly Maclaw's ROMs). Then one day, suddenly while I was playing music the phone just shut off. When I turned it back on, all these green squares were flickering in the boot screen and whenever I tried to play music again, there would be like audio crackling or some kind of static and then crash, turn off and perform a bootloop. I took battery and turned it on and whenever I opened an app, it would load the app and after 5-10 seconds it would just close.
So I decided to flash the stock firmware via odin. After flashing it worked normally for like 30 minutes or so, then the problem started. Although the green screen flickers on the boot animation were gone, the audio problem and app crashes and random reboots are still happening.
I don't know if this is a hardware problem or a software problem. If it is a software problem, can anyone help me?

Anyone else experiencing crashes with this kernel?
Earlier i was listening to music and browsing in opera and the phone just crashed. It looked like it rebooted, but it then stayed at the LG logo screen. I probably should add that the phone was pretty hot.
After that i couldn't turn it off so battery had to be pulled out. I got several crashes afterwards just as the home screen loaded, and was stuck in a bootloop.
It booted nicely after some time. Is this overheating problem, or just "alpha" problem?
( I'd post in the original thread for this kernel, but i don't have access there.)
EDIT:
@kholk
I found another bug using this kernel. I was In the middle of phone conversation (receiving a call) when suddenly my phone turn-off and i can not turn on again using power button. I have to take off battery and put it back then my phone would boot up. Try to make a call again and got the same issue. I never have this problem before using stock kernel.

This is when it first crashed for me too.
it's alpha problem imo. i had the same issue, so i went back to stock kernel.
Kernel(V20A) is not working for me with G lockscreen --> stayed on boot logo
When i changed lockscreen, its boot.
But It crashed and restarted. i think Qslide add ons cause of it.
Then i turn stock kernel.
Hello everyone, i have a weird problem, everytime when im watching youtube (app) on my SP device, i get every now and then an annoying blue screen flicker which last for like 5 seconds. The weird thing is, that this problem not happens on every Video i watch, like i said above, every now and then, its like random.
Also, what i realized yesterday, after sometime my Phone freeze for like 3 seconds while watching youtube, also the sound gets weird. I dont know what causes the problems, is it, because im still using the stock youtube app version which comes with the phone, do i have to update the app in order to eleminate those problems?
What i already did: factory reset
What im using: Android 4.3 latest, not rooted and BL locked
Google Play Music is really screwy. It works for the most part but sometimes when opening up a new interface like clicking on an album or artist it crashes my phone. The phone will freeze and it wont recognize any touch input. Turning the screen off and back on will just bring up the frozen page, it doesn't even bring up the lock screen. I have to either pull the battery or if i let it sit for a few minutes it automatically reboots. It continues to play music while frozen though. I uninstalled the app and got rid off my xposed mods that interacted with the app and then reinstalled it. I still have the same problem though. Sometimes it happens every few hours but I have had it happen every few minutes sometimes. I'm using the newest version of the Xtreme ROM but no one else seems to have this issue.

maybe do a KDZ installation and it might fix it. if it continues its something else.
Hello all,
For some time now I have been having issues with the phone.
Exhibit A) When using e.g. facebook messenger app it will freeze randomly for random amount of time, in some cases if I try to reboot the phone (hold power button for few seconds) the screen would just go blank and wouldn't turn on again, after several seconds in this case phone will reboot by itself. This can happen up to several times a day and is a really tough annoyance to handle. I have tried clearing the cache - situation got better, however issue still persists from time to time. Random "in pocket" reboots also do happen.
Exhibit B) When casting my screen the general video will get laggy and pixelated on movement, audio would break up as well. Tried this with several devices (nVidia SHIELD TV, Panasonic TV, BMW G30)
Phone is completely stock and up to date (OOS 4.1.3)
Any suggestions fellow forum members?
Cheers,
Greq
Is there a solution to this problem? Happens to my wife and me.
Actually, uninstalling Facebook messenger fixed the issue - I switched to messenger lite and device hangs no more
However miracast is still an issue

No Problems here. Looks like RAM errors or similar. Try to reset the phone or exchange.
I reboot the phone 5 times maybe a bug still no answer but there si no new problems
