Er,turns out boot_success=0 means a successful boot? 
The grub menu is hidden now,the only difference operation is staying in the system longer after login,and here is the output

[lnie@localhost-live ~]$ sudo grub2-editenv list
[sudo] password for lnie: 
saved_entry=Fedora (4.18.0-0.rc8.git0.1.fc29.x86_64) 29 (Workstation Edition)
menu_auto_hide=1
boot_success=1
boot_indeterminate=0

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 29 development cycle.
Changing version to '29'.

No boot_success gets set to 1 after you've been logged in for at least 30 seconds, this is to avoid it getting set to 1 in case for example gnome-shell crashes immediately after login.

Correct, as said you need to be logged in for at least 30 seconds.

Note I also have a patches pending to set boot success if you shutdown/reboot from the gnome3 system menu (the menu on the top right), even if your session lasted less then 30 seconds, or in case you are rebooting directly from within gdm, see:

https://gitlab.gnome.org/jwrdegoede/gnome-session/commits/master

I believe that everything is working as intended for you, so I'm going to close this bug.
