THE EARTH SHATTERING VIBRATION....

Any way to hack this thing away? or is it buried so deep only Nokia could destroy it? Thanks....
Do you mean the vibration at the very start of the boot, (when the screen is white with nokia written)? I believe that this vibration is generated by NOLO, so no much chance of preventing that.

You have two mistakes, though:

You do not lose 10% of your battery on every boot. You can test that by performing (much) more than 10 reboots without charging the device. If you sometimes see the battery meter down 10% after a reboot, it is only an artefact of a very inaccurate battery charge estimation.

The short vibration has practically no effect on battery life. You won't gain anything noticeable by disabling it.
