Xbox takes 5-10 minutes to boot and stays there indefinitely

okay so before anyone asks. I've tried pretty much everything I could find to try. I hard reset it. I unplugged it for 5 min. Tried the on Xbox trouble shooting thing by holding sync and eject.

Okay so for the past month my Xbox has been acting up like this requiring me to factory reset it weekly. The first time was like this time where it would take 5-10 min to reach the green screen. And the only way I could fix it was to hold the sync and
eject for the 5-10 minutes and it actually ended up going to the troubleshooter so I could reset it. Then the three other times it messed up the boot sequence was normal so the troubleshooter worked like a charm. But now I'm back to the long boot time and
I tried 2 times last night holding it the entire time til the green screen came up but it never went to the troubleshooter.

Does anyone know how to fix this without sending it in? And as a side question if I have to buy a new Xbox how would I make that Xbox my home while broken one is the home?

Xbox oneS stuck on green boot screen

My sons xbox wouldnt connect to the wifi so i moved it into the room where the router is and hard lined it. When i went to turn the unit on it stays on the green boot screen indefinitely. Ive tried to power down and unplug it for 5 plus minutes to reset
and havent had it plugged back into the router and still nothing. It just stays on the boot up screen.

 

Console takes a long time (5 minutes) to reach green boot up screen - stays there indefinitely

Not trying to sound like a smart *** here, but did you format your USB properly? If yes, did you try the factory reset version?

I had issues where I got the "something went wrong" and spent 2 hours with customer support. In the end they wanted me to pay $120 to get it repaired. I said "What the Heck. It was Xbox's update that *** up my Xbox and I need to pay?"

I was so upset, I downloaded the "factory reset" version and it fixed my issue. Not sure if it will fix yours or not.

 

Hey Lawless65! Are you in the Preview Program at all? If not, you will most likely want to send the console in for repairs. To change your home console, check out the steps
