I have tried to limit the applications that I have loaded but its just over a minute if I have to reset the thing.
What steps/tweaks etc. can be done to expedite the boot up?

Folks,
good day, does n e 1 of u experiences the same problem that I do, the phone has OEM ROM, its SIM and CID unlock, with a 2 gig card. everytime i reboot the phone, either it crashes or installed new apps on it, it will boot to prompt me to enter my password for the phone, but it just hangs from there for a few minutes, then i have to reboot it a few time before i can by pass this n e ideas. Thanks
Yes, it would get to the password screen, not let me enter anything, go dark, and sit there. After about 3-5 reboots, I could sign in. The last program I installed before this problem started was HTweakC. I cannot say it was that, as my 8525 was acting quirky already, but it was the final straw.
I ended up putting some files over on my micro-SD, synced up, then Cleared Storage. The 8525 has been acting better since then, but now I've had a couple freeze ups (after installing the DST cab from Microsoft). But it boots up fine still...
My phone has been working fine for a few months now, after several flashes (cant pick a ROM ) anyway, a few days ago it started acting funny. It would freeze just doing normal everyday tasks, then it would just start working again like nothing happened after about 2 minutes. Now today, it freezes on my welcome splash (the one after the htc, the windows splash). and it just sits there. Sometimes, if I let it sit for about 10 minutes, it will start up-VERY SLOWLY, and if you go into any menus, it freezes. I tried to re-flash, but it wont establish an activesync connection. Is there anyway to get the phone to flash in my situation? Hopefully, I could flash it back to a cingular rom and send it in for warranty.
Did you tried to hard reset your Wizard by resetting while holding Comm Manager and Voice Command button?
Yeap, runs through the set up, gets to the screen where it says "customizing in 3...2...1" and shuts off.
Well, today, it completely died. Won't turn on, tried a new battery.....nothing. Do you think, since it won't turn on, I may be able to sneak it by Exchange By Mail???
Fixed it! For some reason, the first time I tried a new battery, it didn't work. Tried it again just for the hell of it, and it fixed it. Strange.....
Completely stock, not rooted or bootloaded.
After my KK OTA came in I wanted to try ART for a while. Enabled it and then went through the reboot. On the Android is Upgrading screen it would get to a certain app being optimized and then freeze. I'd reboot and it would cut down the number of apps that are getting optimized until it got to just 1 of 1.
Now it just stops there and freezes after 15 seconds or so of being optimized. It won't go past that, I've spent the entire day today giving it time to sit and then try again or just let it fester frozen for anywhere from a few minutes to a few hours.
Question is, what do I do in order to reset my device in a way to past it.
Well, I have no idea how it fixed itself, I went to do a hard reset, couldn't get it go into the documented recovery mode, and then it worked.
Frustration.
Hi guys!
Today my phone had a sudden battery drop (at least I think) and it turned off. Not the first time in all the years I had it but not common.
I can't switch it on since then. It's stuck in app optimizing loop at the boot screen. I left it a couple of hours and nothing changed. The number of apps getting "optimized" changes and the process finishes but the phone can't boot. I tried to take out the SD card but it didn't help.
Is there a way to get it fixed so I manage to transfer my data?
Thanks!
From power off or restart to the screen lock.. takes 1 minute and 40 seconds.... seems very long to me.. My PH-1 is stock and never rooted and always went through the OTA updates and is current and up to date on Android 10.
Thoughts
My first thought is it may be time for a factory reset.
have you tried safe mode?
Never timed mine until now. Just got curious... Regular restart: 1:25 from tapping the button in Power menu to the screen lock. Faster than yours, but not by much. Seems normal to me, consistent with what I've been seeing with this phone.

Thank you for timing yours! Just ran mine again with the stop watch on my Smart watch and it came in at exactly 1:52:78 so it is a bit slower than yours. Think I will try a factory reset and then time it before restoring everything from the cloud and see what I get. :highfive:
It seems due to the November Update.

Yes, seems very long. Mine takes about 35secs & that was with me putting the wrong SIM pin in the first time (I stoped timing when the clock appeared on screen (and my always on VPN had started, so could have been even quicker)
(I'm using a pin for unlock & was connecting to mobile data. Wonder if there is an app that runs at start up that could be slowing you guys down?)
64 seconds from cold to lockscreen for me - stock rooted 10.
I use SD Maid and selectively disable boot from a lot of applications - You would surprised be how many apps think they have the right to launch every boot and sit around in the background.
Magisk scripts can take a while to complete and will slow down launch too, a lot of modules would probably slow it too.
A little bit of housekeeping would probably help, a reset and restore however could just restore the same problem again....
After a factory reset without a restore it took 18.22 seconds from powered off state to the lock-screen. After a full restore from cloud backup it now takes 22.51 seconds from power off state to the lock-screen. Also the phone is way more responsive like it was when I first bought it.... Guess it is true what I have read online... best to factory reset your phone from time to time.
I get occasional long boot times, mostly after an update or similar. I haven't hooked up to adb during boot in awhile, but typically if you are having a long boot time the odex optimizer is probably re-running.

So mine had some issue & I lost data connection & wifi, couldn't fix so rebooted & now it's really slow to reboot. Did you have any issue with data/wifi. (I run a vpn so thought that might have been the cause, but even with it uninstalled it's still slow, though could have been initial cause)
Also since then installed this months security update but it still slow (over 1:30), update tons took about 30min as app optimising was so slow.

Mine did not have any issues with data nor wifi.
I would still do a factory reset.
Same thing happened to me with painfully slow boot times. Factory reset and restore, now boots in 25 seconds from switch on to lock screen.
i did a factory reset and it still takes over 2 min to boot.. accidentally wiped my phone trying ot install twrp..
then went ahead and installed lineage.. boots fast but can't get gapps to load lol
going to try to install lineage 18 and gapps.

Note: Are you using MindTheGApps, still only recommended package (though someone got another gapps to work, can't remember which)
Also make sure you are installing gapps BEFORE 1st boot into Lineage OS, if not do a factory reset & install gapps then boot to OS
should work fine on LOS 19.1 (or use npjhonstone unofficial version which has it included with rom)
PS. Never hand issue with increasing boot times since installing LOS.
