First, remove the battery and wait a few seconds to clear the memory before replacing.
The restart your phone as follows.. Hold down the Vol Up button and the Home button, and while doing that press and hold the Power button until the Samsung logo appears (3 button reset). Release all 3 buttons and you will see the Android robot lying down with a red triangle. Your phone is now in Recovery mode. Use the Vol Up/Down buttons to select 'wipe cache partition' and press the Power button ONCE. When the cache is clear you will return to the menu where you select 'reboot system now' and press the Power button ONCE again. Your phone will restart with a clean cache.

                  dd, 29 Oct 2014My S3(India, international version) is now 10mnths old sinc... moreThe right settings to speed up device and get maximum performance ( RAM & Battery ) for S3 :

                  1- in developer options go to limit background processes and chose 4 processes at most.( always repeat it after your phone turn on or restart)
                  2- in application manager ( turn off ) (disable) bloatware apps and some of services for ( google & samsung ) Because it always running in the background and consume a lot of battery and Ram .
                  3- don't install many apps that consuming battery and Ram like social media apps and games ... just install what you really need .
                  4- don't use live wallpapers.
                  5- always clean up your phone Ram and cash.
                  6- always use home button to close apps that running in the background.
                  7- power saving mode reduces battery consumption but at the same time also reduces CPU speed . to get maximum speed of CPU remove the check mark from CPU power saving .
                  8- if you faced any problem in your phone use recovery mode chose wipe cash partition then reboot it again .
                  9- if you use the battery for more than 18 month it's better to buy a new one.
                  10- always use the original charger and battery for S3 and don't ever use non- original.
