Can anyone confirm how long it takes foe there tab to start up once it's shutdown? I'm sure it varies with the amount of aps installed but I think that my startup time of 1min & 30sec is a little excessive? I have about 30 apps installed.
2 minutes or so.
That long? Is that about the standard time?

Im hoping this will change with the ICS update but, Im not sure.
Seams like a long time to wait, but I guess thats the norm. Thanks all for your input.
Get a new one!
My first TP use to take 1:40 to boot up so I took my chances and exchange it for a new one. Now my boot up time is 30-35 seconds even after the update and root!
after wiping mine, it would boot in about 20 seconds, now after installing a bunch of apps, it's in the 1-2 min range again.
I have well over 100 apps n games already. anywhere fro 2-3 minutes for startup time.

You exchanged for the bootup time? or did you have other issues?

boot times are subjective to how many and the types of apps installed. it will always vary based on what you adding to your device.

yes it is.. it's called SOD.. search for it and you'll know what's causing it.. but basically you have to find a good combination of build, kernel and of course microSD card.. although on most build that are based on Evo kernel, SOD is almost unheard of.. that's why when you get the SOD, microSD would most likely be the culprit.. also, on some winmo rom, you have to disable the automatically turn off the phone when not in use.. some people here might say it isn't needed, but on my experience, i know that i had to do it on some winmo rom to prevent the SOD..
okay so SOD... after i can find a good combination it shouldnt happen/???
The phones not actually crashed its juatt not the display showing anything for some reason.
I get sod from time to tome but I always get out of it.

You need SonyEricsson LiveWare to run it.
You could download it at the Market.

I had the same issue today. my fix was
1 place on charge
2 press and hold the power button for 20 seconds
3 enjoy the boot up...
Yes it is in the Manual to hold the Power off for 15 seconds if anything goes wrong. I forgot this when it froze on the bootup screen one afternoon, so I had to let the batttery run out, then charge it, then switch it back on lol.
My one actually has a display death. I turned it off and put it on charge overnight, woke up and turned it on and the screen is all distorted and lines (similar to damaged lcd) and unusable. I have reflashed it etc but no good. Only had for 3 days!
In the 3 days I think it managed to hold a connection for nearly 2 hours...
Meh, Junk. They really failed this one up.

This is really beginning to annoy me. Cant keep the thing to stay on unless it is plugged in to the AC adaptor. Shuts off withing 15 seconds of being unplugged. Running AOKP rom and everything started last night. Have had transfromer since February and Asus support said some bs like their servers are overloaded and to call again in 4 hours.

I know it sounds noobish, but did you check display settings? There is a 15 second screen time out option...maybe it's set to that? There's also a " always keep device awake while plugged in" option.
Otherwise I would go ask jermaine151 about that...he's extremely helpful.
I just came back to AOKP Milestone 5 an hour ago, and I'm not having any problemos.
Other than that, maybe a simple reflash might help.

Damn...if it does that across multiple ROMs and it's not settings it sounds like a hardware problem...sucks ass man.
Only other thing I would try is going back to the stock kernel if you're not already running it.
Don't know man..maybe someone else can shed some light.
Curious, you say it only stays on if plugged in to the charger? Does it stay on then if it's attached to the keyboard dock? If you have one..

I ordered a keyboard dock a week or so ago so hopefully it will fix my problem. I open the battery calibration app and it says i have 7mv!!! I am pretty sure ASUS will not fix it or give me a new one because it has an unlocked bootloader. Maybe if i brick it where it wont get past the first bootscreen they wont know?
Minor Update
Tried Flashing Stock Kernal -No Luck
50th Battery Recalibration - No Luck
Wiped/Factory Restore - No Luck
Slammed Transformer on desk in frustration - Sucess!!!
So far been running it for 30 minutes and no shut down. Maybe violence is the key to all our problems?

Hi
my s3 keeps freezing. the screen basically just freezes while i'm doing something. and the device stops responding to anything.
cant lock it. cant do anything. it doesnt even autolock , the screen just stays on with whatever i was working on.
------------------
the only solution is to wait for it(about 20 minutes) and it will get back to whatever it was doing earlier. or hold the power button and it will reboot.
when i checked my router, i can see that it is still connected. so wifi is working. when i call my number from another phone, it rings but the S3 does absolutely nothing. and after it starts working again, i dont see any missed calls. so anyone who calls me while its "Freezing" will get ignored. i wont even know !!!
---------------
its not related to any app or function.
i updated it to 4.1.2 using odin a month ago (official release, because it would take it forever to get the update in my country) . it was running smoothly. a week ago it started freezing for moments every day or two. now i cant get through 10 minutes of using the device without it freezing for 20 or 30 minutes.
then the screen is turned on and it goes back to normal. and freezes after 10 minutes even if i dont use it.
i've noticed that using WiFi speeds up the freezing. When Wifi is On, it takes about 30s - 3 minutes for it to freeze.
--------
---
I did a Factory reset(full wipe from recovery mode), it worked for about an hour after the reset , and started freezing again like before.
----------------
after researching online.. many people had the same issue. some say its the stock android browser(but i dont use the browser), some said its a glitch in WiFi power saving mode(Disabled it, nothing changed), some said its a problem with the battery(i'm gonna trade batteries with my friend and see what happens).
I'm Freaking OUT !!! ... the device is Very Unstable and i use it on daily basis, i cant live without it. i dont know what to do. i've almost tried everything.
and i've paid alot of money for it
....
.........
i dont know what to do next. probably gonna flash it back to 4.1.1 or 4.0.4
i Hope to hear any ideas from you. or from anyone who had this issue with his device.
thanks in advance
Did you try a full wipe ?
Or maybe trying another ROM?
Try flashing a full stock Rom with a full wipe might that help
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
Dude, mine did that the first week I got it. Ended up failing and became stuck in Samsung's boot logo. That has nothing to do with whatever rom you're using. Backup and return it to stock if possible/needed, and take it in for a replacement/repair asap.

if i get really frustrated i will wipe it again, and flash it back to stock 4.0.4 ( but i hate ICS, ... JB is soo much better)
Suggest you flash a different kernel and see. Would recommend Siyah or Yank 555
My freezing issues stopped once I did it.

i bought it 7 months ago, returning it is not an option.

and this has never happened before. and it didnt happen after i updated to 4.1.2 right away. it happened a month later
so i'm thinking it has to do with the hardware or some app update thats messing things up.
thnx for replying anyway :good:

Did you find any solution for this? Mine has the same symptoms, but only when playing heavy 3D games.
*** ORIGINAL ***
I had this problem for the past two days. I removed my sd card about half an hour ago which seems to have fixed it. Before that it wouldn't even last two minutes without "locking up". I'll report back tomorrow if the problem was fixed permanently.
*** EDIT 1 ***
Nevermind, it froze just a few seconds ago. Keep on looking for a solution.
*** EDIT 2 ***
Well, I didn't touch my phone my phone over night and now it's working just fine. I have no idea why though.
update: my phone has almost stopped freezing. in past 24 hours it has frozen only ONCE !!
i've noticed that the freezing becomes more frequent if i pull the battery or restart by holding the power button.
so i started leaving it to sort it self out every time it freezes. and now its running smoothly.
-------
i'm happy that its working now, but still i wanna know what caused this. and if it will start happening again ??
---
everyone thnx for the feedback
and i will post updates and new info if i get any !
Mine is fixed
So i was having the same problem as the OP and i fixed my problem... These are the steps i took but maybe not all of them are needed.
Bought Triangle Away and Reset my Flash Counter
Flashed the Stock XXELLA ROM which updated the bootloader
Flashed CWM Touch Recovery 6.0.2.7
Booted in Recovery
Wipe Data / Factory Reset
Booted Normally
Installed crDroid ROM v10 with Siyah Kernel
This was finished at 5:30pm last night and my phone hasn't frozen since.
Spoke too soon
Well,
Phone is now dead.
Completely.
Doesn't turn on anymore.
I want to cry...:crying::crying::crying:

Hi Ali5anDro31,
Just curious if you have any further updates? Is yours still working well?
It seems I have the exact same problem as you (freezes randomly, more likely to freeze during heavy load but also often within 5 minutes of boot, usually unfreezes in about 20 minutes, and often gets stuck on Samsung logo if forcing reboot rather than waiting).
For a while I thought that following your advice and just letting it unfreeze itself when it happens (even though it takes a long time) it might have been fixed (going 18 hours without a freeze after having about 30 freezes the two days prior), but now I just got one again (within 5 minutes of starting browsing this morning).
Should I stick with it and hope it resolves itself, or take other measures (e.g. see if I can return the phone)?

I keep getting freezes also.
So far, it only happens with XXELLC based roms. When I go back to XXELLA the phone never freezes.
I have tried several XXELLC Roms, but all of them freeze, including Omega and VikingRom.
I'm now on VikingRom v4.1 (XXELLA) and no freezes.
Edit:
Nevermind, now it's happening also on XXELLA roms. All this started happening to me after i installed CM10.1, and then i went directly to XXELLC, of course wiping everything including internal storage.
Spent 2 days with this problem, i'm on XXELLA with a completly unmodified S3 using a 64gb SD card. I think i've fixed it have now been running for 30 hours without a freeze. before it was freezing every 5 minutes, nearly sent the phone back.
Any way my solution is uninstall all updates to samsung 'music hub' and uninstall the samsung push service updates and disable. this seemed to fix it. Can't believe Samsung are putting out software that knacks their own phones.

My manager had similar problems and he asked me if i could fix it.. in the end the phone just died.

Hey guys,
I just flashed the skydragon 6.0.2 onto my VS985. I'm currently on step 7 (Reboot device after finishing installation) and it has been stuck on the 4 flying circles screen for an hour and 15 minutes now.
How long would you guys wait until you ruled it as "stuck"? I understand that the first boot can take an especially long time but this seems a bit excessive.
Thank you
edit: after two hours, i rebooted into TWRP and did a factory reset. Seems like it was stuck after all. So to answer the question, 2 hours is too long. Maybe 30 minutes max is need.

i have never had it take more than about 5 on most phones, by 20, its not going to boot.
I waited 30min once and did a battery pull and rebooted and it booted right up into the ROM and had no issues since. I did not do a factory reset that time. other times I have.

Outside of any instructional wait time from the developer, my default is 5 minutes.
