Error: Step timed out after X milliseconds at Timer.listOnTimeout (timers.js:92:15)

Hey guys, I am running in a very big problem. I am using protractor 3.0 with latest versions of everything (node, cucumber-framework, chrome-driver, etc). On Windows and Ubuntu machine, the tests are running quite ok. On Debian machine, build by a task scheduler in Jenkins, 80% of cases, only one feature fails, and turns my test in red. making this unreliable. I am running multicapabilities, 5 features (because i cannot clear session from the browser with any kind of script .... and i need new sessions for each test), but setting max session to 1, otherwise the protractor tests just dies. I tried changing the miliseconds time, right now is at 30.000 milisecons and still not helping. I am having this issue from a previous version of protractor also (2.2.0, 2.3.0, 2.5.1). Sometimes, after a restart of jenkins machine, the tests are just green.. sometimes, just red. Again, is about only one single test that's failing, and makes no sense sometimes to run and sometimes not to. The webpage i am testing is SPA.

Thanks!
