Has anyone noticed any unusually long boot/reboot times with the 4.3.1 JB (IP4)?

With my 4.1 JB it would take about 30 seconds or so to reboot. Now it takes several minutes. Just wondering if anyone else is seeing this.

Thanks
David

This is more likely to be a specific jailbreak app you have installed, rather than the JB itself. My JB 4 still boots up at the normal speed and I have a good 25+ Cydia apps installed...

That's odd... My JB 3GS takes 35s.
Restore FW and JB again.

Yes, I've noticed this as well. Did you use redsn0w or pwnage? I used redsn0w but I plan to redo my jb with pwnage when I have the time.
 
Bootlogo

I had redsn0w rc9 and upgraded to rc12 and added boot logos. It did feel like boot time became longer after adding custom boot logos. Not much longer but it did seem like there was a difference. Did anyone else that added custom boot logos notice this?
 
Noob here. I jb 2 AT&T iPhone 4's with redsnow and also have noticed it takes almost 2 minutes to restart. Is pwnage tool better? What are the differences? I have boot logos enabled on both phones so not sure if that's whats causing the extended boot time. Thanks in advance.

No custom boot logos here. Definitely going to re-jb with pwnage though. Never had this issue in the past and this is the first time I've used redsn0w.
 
just restarted mine, it took about 1min or so, but it started in safe mode. restarted after that, took only a few seconds. everything's fine.

*edit: i'm on redsn0w; not sure which version, but it's one of the first ones for 4.3.1

I forgot to mention: first times my 3GS runned in SpringBoard's safe mode.
(hope I'm saying this right; I just have my iPhone since Monday :p)
 
Same issue I am about to start going through my cydia installed apps and make sure none of them are the issue... I only have about 8 which are the only reason I JB to begin with so hopefully they are not the issue. I also went with redsn0w. If there is a way to do it through pwnage I will try it out if removing the apps doesn't work. Other odd thing for mine is when closing multiple apps it tends to freeze. So extremely long boot time and freezes on app closings.
