I noticed this, that even with both of our Rezounds having been De-Sensed, and all the bloat removed, that they take an insanely long time to boot up.
One phone is unlocked and perm rooted, the other is not. Both phones have "fast boot" enabled, but they both take a solid 2 minutes to boot up and get to the lock screen.
Any idears?
You would think that not having to load Sense or any of the 20 useless bloat apps, that the phone would boot faster, but it takes longer than any phone I have ever owned, bar none.
It's the way that HTC decided to build Android on the Rezound...nothing more, nothing less. You'll probably see significantly lowered times when we get AOSP on here. I mean my OG Droid took a good minute to load until I got my first AOSP ROM(Cyanogenmod)
Mine boots in like 5 seconds from a dead power off. Fastest phone I've ever had.
If i "reboot" then it takes about a 2 minutes.
Ok, so it isn't just me then... I mean, I have a 3 year old laptop running Windows7 that takes 1/3 the time to boot up than this phone takes, which seems crazy to me.
So I guess it is better to turn the phone off and then boot it, instead of rebooting it? I will try that and time it and see what the difference is.
I was wondering this too. Good to know!

With me turning my smartphone off every night I see this long load time every day. I don't use Fastboot either.

With fastboot enabled, it will boot that fast from a power down...
I noticed this too when I first got it on launch day. I was at the bar with a friend and she had a Droid 2 and I mentioned that it takes insanely long to boot up, so I decided to set up a "race". I hit reboot about 5-10 seconds before she rebooted hers and her's was fully loaded before mine even got to the sense lockscreen! After freezing all the apps I didn't like, installing a custom ROM and using autorun manager it seemed to shorten a lot. Haven't re-tested the "race" yet though just to see if it's placebo or not.

That's like booting from hibernation on a PC

With custom ROM root and no apps my phone booted in like 30 secs. Now it takes like 1 min 45sec

My phone boots in under 30 seconds every time, even after a battery pull. I get the haptic vibrate before the LTE animation finishes. I don't use Fastboot.
then clearly you've got the one magical rezound out there, because every single rezound i've ever used and booted up takes god damn forever, including mine lol

Mine only takes 30-40 secs on fastboot to boot up.
When I power off and power back on, it's very fast, less than a minute. If I reboot, it takes a long time, 2 to 3 minutes. Strange.

Just tested mine and from the time I pushed "restart" on the reboot screen to the time the lock screen came on it took 2 minutes and 15 seconds. I then shut the phone down and from the time I pushed the power button until the lock screen came on was 1 minute and 35 seconds.
My CleanROM 1.5 boots in 42 seconds from a battery pull.

I rock SenselessROM, probably similar times? Or could it be DSB's kernel?
Has anyone tried using the ROM Toolbox Auto Start Manager to disable applications from loading at boot?
I feel like that might help out with boot times.
I too notice that doing a shut down and then cold power on takes like 30 seconds, but a reboot takes 2-3 minutes full turnaround.

duh, then NO WONDER you boot in like 30 seconds...should've said that in your first post
Power off and power on is different than a full restart. This phone goes into hibernation when you power off that's why it boots faster. Full restart or battery pull is what the post is talking about.
disabling apps from starting on boot does help boot time. Also certain roms boot faster.

is there any way to speed up the boot time on the prime like setting services to start after boot up or stopping certain services from starting at all
I found a system file that allowed you to boot with no boot image to allow faster startup but it won't be much faster as it has to mount your internal sd card and load apps ect.. If you have a external card remove it then insert it after boot and see if the time improves.???
Other than that why are you turning it off? Over 8 hours you will lose like around 1% battery while getting few emails
The deep sleep on the prime is crazy as the companion core Is running at 102mhz which is great!

I'm guessing that once we see some custom roms we will also see faster boot times.

I dont know on HC, but ICS boot time is very fast.
At least on my Galaxy Nexus
You will get ICS on Jan 12
It boots faster if you never turn it off.
All Android devices tend to boot slow (although the Prime is the slowest I have seen). I just turn off wifi, GPS, and bluetooth when I am done and try to avoid actually turning it off.

agreed! my TFP is still in teh mail but my inspire has 0 battery drain with all the radios off. seriously, it could last me days/weeks if i put it into airplane mode when i'm not on it
Mine takes about 1 minute 45 seconds. I timed it but just once.
Mine takes 45 to 50 seconds. It used to take a good 2mins but after factory reset and apps put back it's a lot speedier.
Just seeing this threat. Mine is also incredibly slow--at least 2 minutes. I'll also try a factory reset to see if it improves.
I actually came in here looking for a thread about boot times and here one is. Mine takes an incredibly long time to boot (running androwook 2.1). Upwards of 2-3 minutes boot time. Driving me crazy. Maybe a factory reset is in my future too.
Need to reduce the boot time
i am using a self modified rom for the tablet hardware that i specifically chose, so i have tweaked most of the drivers and made some changes in the kernal for viewing the debug messages.
but when i finally done all the changes it booted for a 2.50 mins.So i disabled the unwanted debug message andit reduced to a lower value of 1.27 mins.
i wanrt it to boot within 40 sec max could any one please tell me what has to be changed in the kernel for this.
My evo lte running CM10 shut of and will not boot, i cannot get into recovery or bootloader, now it is just sitting there unresponsive but it vibrates every minute or two. Last night it came back on for about 20 minutes then locked up again

are you sure its completely off? have you tried holding down the power button for 10 seconds to force reboot the phone. Then you should be able to get into bootloader/recovery.
yeah do what husker just said, after the home back and recent buttons stop blinking hold power and vol down to get to bootloader again if you havent done so already

Yes i have, as i said i cannot get into the bootloader/recovery. When i try it does nothing until i release them, about 10 seconds later it will vibrate
If u have adb setup connect to your PC and type adb reboot bootloader.

I'm completely at a loss here. I was running a 4.3 rom for the past week or two with no issues. Pulled my phone out of my pocket 30 min ago, hit the power button and the screen wouldn't light up. I tried it again and still no go. I tried swiping to unlock, even with the black screen and i felt it vibrate.
Ever since then my phone is non responsive. I can't get it to boot, can't hard reset it, nothing. The vibrates stop when I'm holding down power and down volume but that's about it. I timed the constant vibrates and they happen every 34 seconds according to the Win8 clock (which i've heard in inaccurate).
I'm gonna let the battery drain and hope that it will boot back up after it dies...but until then, any ideas?
Try plugging it into your computer and see what comes up. Which 4.3 ROM were you on?

That's the first thing I tried. I get nothing when i plug it into my comp. Nothing pops up in device manager. The comp doesn't detect it at all.
And I was running the 8/23 release of carbon 4.3 and I didn't have one problem with it until this happened :\
EDIT: The phone's battery finally ran out. It stopped vibrating and after a bit i plugged it in. After a few min it just starting doing it again.
I disassembled the phone and removed the battery for awhile hoping it would somehow help. Didn't do anything. It showed the flashing charge light (like when it's really low) for maybe a minute then it stop lighting up at all. Sometimes if i leave it unplugged for a bit and plug it back in it will flash the light again. That's about all I'm getting out of it now.
I'm thinking something failed internally. It happened while it was on and I was using it so there's no possibility that it was from a flash or anything like that.
Took my phone to the sprint store. The tech wasn't sure either but he thought it might be the screen that died. The vibrating could be the phone trying to boot then realizing there's no screen. They took it apart to check for moisture/damage and said I'm good to go for the $50 replacement.
So my new Evo will be here Tuesday.

did you resolved it i'm having same had same issue as you mine is htc sensation but think is the same thing ive replacet the digitizer some day ago and it was working very good untill it start to vibrate and than died, now it flashes an orange light when i try to charge and after a while stops but i cant power it on nothing hapens when i press power button
Did you resolve the issue?
Did you ever resolve this issue? My Evo LTE started doing the exact same thing this evening and all of the Sprint stores are closed until tomorrow. I figure it's something internal that died and I can't see what it's trying to do... I guess you just got the replacement and didn't ever get it resolved with that particular phone?

So my Note 2 pooped out on me today. It did a hotboot, came to splash screen, went black. Cant turn it on, charger doesnt even recognize on it (No LED indication or battery on screen image). Battery is fully charged as I unplugged it from the charger in the morning at it was at 100%. I've done the following
Pulled batt
attempted reboot into recovery
attempted adb (cant power on so useless, but i gave it a shot)
attempted several power button presses (Now this one is interesting)
Upon my several attempts to reboot, I occasionally get it to boot up for a few seconds. I've even made it past the splash for a second or two. But it promptly powers back off and becomes unable to power back on. Any thoughts as to what this could be? I've looked into SDS but not entirely sure. Thanks!

Do you have another battery that you can try? I have the original and two spares, sometimes even when they say fully charged phone won't turn on, drop in a different battery and all is well again.

Are you by chance running a different kernel and under volted? There was some talk in the jedi thread about people under volting too much and the phone just not having enough power to boot.

No UV or OC or anything. Ran Trans-Neb for a couple weeks, no kernel adj at all. Not a battery issue. I think my eMMC just tanked on me. replacement is on the way.
Hey guys,
Im curious what's the shortest boot time you get with stock or custom Roms/kernel/config? Mine is insanely long, I think one of the longest, compared to other devices I've owned.
Sent from my E5823 using Tapatalk
Mine is less than a minute, i rebooting my phone every month(average) so boot time not really a factor for me, as long the phone fast on the actual use
Just how long do you mean?
Mine was taking around 30 minutes to boot up. I've done a hard reset this morning and it just booted in 7 minutes. This can't be right, surely?
Does anyone have any tips before I buy something else?

Na, even with encryption turned on, which increases the boot time, my phone boots in less than 2 mins.
50 secs with ul-bl and rooted fw .224.
with xposed and many modules about 1.30 min
