This is quite a strange issue. I wonder if the user Innocence back on pages 108 and 109 was actually having this same issue, but never figured out that it was in fact booting, just at an insanely slow rate...

I have previously booted it to the setup screen where it asks you to setup your PIN, but the system runs as slowly as the boot process, it literally takes like 40 minutes to go past a single menu.

I'm gonna leave my phone for a few hours to hopefully boot to at least the language screen again, then I'll see about getting some logs.
