Is there a way to speed up boot time w/o root or an app? And if I have to use an app, what is the best app out there for this?

There isn't really much you can do without root. The closest I can think would be something lile HTC's fastboot function, where instead of a full shut down, it puts the phone in a state of hibernation. This results in a really fast boot up when trying to turn the phone back on. I don't know if any other phone has something like that.

Golly gee, how often do you boot your device and just how big a problem can this possibly be?
Big enough for me to start a thread about it. Technically, ppl don't have to root, move apps to sd cards, or many of the other tactics that are inquired about. But if someone wants to do it, they ask. That's what this forum is all about. Do you have any (helpful) suggestions?
Yes.
1) Don't sweat the small stuff
2) Don't break your device in an effort to make it marginally better
Well since you're a newbie, I'll let you worry about that. My quest for knowledge/help will not turn into a debate with an internet stranger. Please enjoy your non-productive day.

Actually, I am far from a newbie. I was new specifically to the Nexus 4 at the time I chose that name.
I am a certified IT professional with 30 plus years experience, currently employed as IT Manager at a large manufacturing facility, and have written code in so many languages I have lost track. I had numerous published apps for PalmOS (that dates me, I know) and have also written apps for both Android OS and Apple iOS. Like it or not, the odds are that I have far more experience than you and have learned not only how to make things better, but also how to keep from making them worse.
Just sayin'
There is an app All-In-One Toolbox that has as part of its many tools a way to help speed up the boot process. I believe it is a sledge hammer for this question but it will work for you. There are 29 tools in all but the one you are looking for is there.

I'd be curious how it turns out. Please keep us posted. I've done nothing to my startup processes and it takes about a minute or so to fully boot.

What phone are you using? Nice to see you have the improvement you were looking for.
