Does anyone elses DInc 2 take forever to boot up after hitting restart. I swear mine takes like 5 minutes at least. Also the boot animation doesnt last for the whole boot up time. The droid eye moves back and forth twice then just sits there and doesnt move. Seems like a oversite on HTC. Thoughts?
it does take a little bit of time, but 5 minutes?? wow.. you could always go into settings and change to quick boot.
Here's what I'm wondering. If quick boot is available, why would any of us ever use regular boot? Is there some advantage to long boot?
Same problem here. Five minutes may be an exaggeration, but it takes at least two minutes or so. And it seems to make no difference whether I have Quick Boot checked or not. Could this have something to do with running Launcher Pro instead of Sense?
yeah i'm not sure either. but the description says that some market applications/services are disabled if you use quick boot.
When I select restart it does take about 2 minuets to fully boot, but when I just turn it on with its booted in under 20 seconds, quick boot enabled.

Mine sort of freezes on the Droid eye as well. Mainly with the eye and two black dots to the right of it. It doesn't sit there for long though, but definitely noticeable. I have quick boot on as well.

Hi all, I've run a few Sense HD roms (Z, badnews, RCMix), but neither has had the 5 second boot function working.
I've seen video of this and I've heard people say it works, so I know its possible.
Does anyone have any ideas on getting it going?
It's not a boot, just waking form hibernation. A boot will take around the same time as normally on the Desire.
As the guy above said it's just hibernation. Instead of pressing reboot click on hibernate and then it will switch on almost instantly
I want to know if anyone knows what the problem/solution of this is. I have a 0003 Evo, the panel that only supports 3 pt touch, ROM doesnt matter, on the ENG HBOOT for CM, AMON RA 2.3
That sums up my phone, the problem is I'm always stuck at the splash screen for 3-4 minutes when booting up. If im booting to Bootloader or Recovery it's quick, hot reboot never reaches the splash screen so thats whatever, but reboot, or powering down then turning on my evo gets me stuck at the splash screen for quite some time. This is my second evo, and continues to do this despite the ROM I use and despite the splash screen image I use. Whats the problem/fix because so far it's only this specific evo.. I've tried google, everyone is complaining about erasing boot, that isnt my problem since everything else of the phone works just fine.

huh?
Anyway, are you wiping data/cache/dalvik everytime you flash a new rom?

What exactly is the problem? It takes a long time to boot? You said it boots up eventually, or I assumed that since you said everything else on the phone works fine.

when i boot up, it is stuck on the splash screen for 3-4 minutes, and then boots up normally. I'm wondering if all that time on the splash screen is normal or if i screwed something up since it takes so long to get to the boot animation
mine takes that long

That's not abnormal. My phone takes anywhere between 30 seconds and 4 minutes to get past the splash screen. This is especially apparent if you've just flashed something. Don't worry, it's just your phone loading

really? I was messing with my friends evo and his screen was there for only 10 seconds, he was unrooted. Is this a side effect of being rooted?

You can by staying on a rom (Of course only to a certain point)
I don't know if I'd say mine stays at the white htc screen for 3-4 min, but close to a good min for sure. Have you actually timed it at 3-4 min?
Once it reaches the boot animation, it's typically ~30 seconds before the UI comes up.

yeah I have timed it, came out to 230 on avg with peaks at 3 minutes but generally around 230. I unrooted, then re-rooted my phone to get the latest hboot 2.1 and see if i screwed something up when rooting and after i unrooted i got past the splash screen quickly, and after rooting it still got past quickly. could it have been my hboot? i was on 0.76, gonna flash 0.93 if i cant keep the current hboot and have Salvage GB at the same time

I suppose it could be the hboot ver, but am not familiar enough with it to say for sure. It's been over a month since I had hboot 2.10, and I don't reboot the phone THAT often to pay much attention to it. FWIW, I've compared mine (hw ver 0003) to a launch day 100% stock evo. Both go through the splash and animation in roughly equal time.
Yours might be delayed because you're running GB?
I can't count how many I have but I think I just did topped my list. I went to backup my Skyraider 4.0 but instead I deleted my CM7 41 by accident!! I had that puppy setup perfectly!!
c'mon..fess up
I think the most "duh" thing I've done, albeit rather minor, was spending like ten minutes wondering why a radio wasn't being recognized by HBOOT, just to realize it was still in my downloads folder on my SD card lol. Other than that, its been a very painless experience with my DI I've had her since day one, too.

Or the time I wanted to shut down so i could go to recovery but instead hit reboot. Thinking I could catch it just as it hit its off cycle I held the volume down and power button. Yup my phone gave me a nice little reminder not to do that by vibrating 4 times and going to the android with exclamation mark screen. Did a battery pull and all was well. And my heart still works.

Sadly it took me like a day to figure out why I wasn't operating CWM properly... I was using the power button instead of the optical device to select things -.-

Hello,
Ever since I rooted my phone I've been having this issue...the first image on boot, the clock work mod splash screen takes an awfully long time...like 20-25 seconds before it goes to the boot screen animation where it takes another 20 -25 seconds, is there any way to speed things upand get the phone to boot up as fast as a non rooted device? I'm using AIO Runny 4.01
Thanks
any one knows a way to solve this??
Maybe nobody (me also) gets why this is a problem for you?

well just my opinion buddy......I don't see the need to fix your issue...as I find it normal....I myself takes 30sec or so before I managed to get into CWM Recovery....
You just need to be patient......unless there is a "real" issue behind it.
Hey
Thanks for the replies. I guess I wasn't clear...
It stays on the first screen - the one with the Joker for 20 - 25 seconds before switching to boot animation where it takes another 20 seconds....thats like almost 45 secs of booting time.
I don't remember it taking that long before rooting? Is it normal??
Thanks
If it is under 1 minute you have got to suck it up my friend...as it is fairly typical. Mine seems to roughly to take up to 50 seconds.
However there are apps available such as rescan media root from the android market. Run the app and select the option to disable media scanner. It basically stops media scan to run on boot, therefore theoretically should save a lot of boot time and make the phone boot faster.
Thanks alot mate!
Hey all, I have a S3 i747 on rogers. I have had it for a couple years everything working fine and great, I rooted it after I bought it and it worked no problem. A week or two ago it suddenly shut itself off while I was using it. I didn't think much of it, then later that day again it turned itself off.
This time, it automatically tries to reboot but as soon as the logo appears it instantly turns itself back off again. It's not that it gets to a certain point, it's like there's a time limit on how far it can progress through the boot sequence, I estimate about 4-5 seconds. No matter what I try I cannot get it past this cut off time.
I have tried download mode, recovery mode, battery tricks (found on obscure sites), etc etc etc and still its stuck in this death loop. Im fine with buying a new phone, but I had not made a contact back-up for 6 months (no, I wasn't syncing with google) and have lost many, many new contacts as well as certain files and pictures that I wouldn't mind getting back.
Also, if I am very fast I can get the first page of recovery mode to pop up, but then the "time limit" hits and before any selections on the menu can be made it automatically reboots. If I leave the battery in, it will try every few minutes to boot repeatedly until the battery is completely zapped.

Does it still keep rebooting even in download mode? If not then try reflashing your stock rom.
Or maybe try booting up without an sd and without a sim card.

Also make sure to not hold the volume and home keys too long when going into download mode, once the phone vibrates you should be able to let go. I made the same mistake on my phone and then noticed i had been pressing the volume and power keys while download mode was starting, causing it to select cancel. If not though you are probably looking at some sort of internal hardware issue that may be causing the reset to trip or causing the phone to believe it should be shutting itself off at that moment. This is all purely speculation, but hope it helps.

I can't even make it into download mode, or recovery mode. Like I said, its as if the phone has a built in time-limit for how long it is going to load, the absolute farthest I can get is the first page of recovery mode and then boom it instantly resets before I can even make one selection, and I did this like 100 times in a row so I got very fast at getting into recovery mode. As per 2nd quote, yes I am releasing the buttons as I am supposed to to get into the appropriate mode, but the "time limit" hits and just reboots no matter what.
I've tried booting up without sim and sd card, but it still doesn't make it any further.
Dead boot look i747
Fix a fix for it? I have the same problem.

I would put my money on a bad power switch/button.

Yes, it acts like a stuck power button, a common problem with galaxy s phones.
If it auto starts when you insert the battery, that's a sure sign the power on circuit is active.
When my Captivate did this, I opened the back & carefully tapped it on a table edge to try dislodging any debris.
I then followed teardown instructions, inspected the switch assembly & blew it out with forced air.
The problem ended & never returned. I honestly don't think there was a physical defect in my phone's switch; more likely a residual charge on the mainboard.
Root causes vary as do solutions for the problem. Inexpensive switch replacement is a good one too.
Since then I have used a couple of apps to reduce the need for the gs3 power button.
