That truly is weird. How about flashing the factory image? If you don't mind a factory reset, then I am sure it will not concern you much, and of course, worth a shot.
EDIT: Before doing that, just check the Google Play Services version and see if it is the latest or not.

Hello! Every time I perform a factory reset or I change ROM a new copy of my device appears in google location history list. Is there anyone who found a solution to this no harmful but annoying situation? Thanks!

I don't think so. Every time you flash a new ROM, Google and lot's of other services will think that you got a new phone.
If you use Titanium Backup, you can try restoring the device ID before signing in to Google. TiBU will ask you automatically if you want to keep the new or restore the old. That might work, but I've never paid attention...

After 28 days they drop off the list if not used. You could also delete them by going to settings->google->sign in and security->device access. Touch a device and click remove.

Removal from Google account doesn't work. Waiting 28 days should work because I don't see my old device copies. Thanks for help!
Hello,
Android Device Manager says I have "No Active Devices". I wan't to enroll in the open beta but obviously can't. I've googled this problem and none of the suggested solutions have worked for me. Running 100% stock on latest April 2016 build.
Help is greatly appreciated.

I helped someone regarding the same.
Go here: https://play.google.com/settings
See if your device's visibility status is checked.
For the other person that I helped, didn't had his device displaying there. So he did a complete factory reset and started over, and thereafter his device got enlisted.

Did you install Android Device Manager from the play store on your device? I believe this has to be on any of your devices first before it will show up on the website.

A user contacted me for the same issue. After he reflashed the stock firmware and logged his Google account into his device, the issue was resolved.
I am not sure if there is a particular cause for this, but it seems to be an issue only caused on firmwares shipped out-of-the-box.

Yeah the phone is listed on Google Play settings just not in ADM or the beta signup page. I have tried everything I can find online to fix it. Clear data for a bunch of services, disable then enable remote flash, reboot, etc. Nothing has worked and it is really pissing me off now. Such a simple thing that should just work but nope

I am tempted to flash an older stock image onto the phone and see if it is an issue with the May update that is causing the problems.

So I signed up for a new Google account and logged in on the phone and it added it to the new account ADM instantly! So it isn't a problem with the phone but something to do with my Google account. I have posted a question to the Google Nexus product forum, hopefully I will find a solution.

I hope you do. Every few day, I see a new user with this problem, so hopefully Google will look into it.
I've had the same issue for months. It first started with my 6P, then I got a Nexus 9 and while using my main account there is no entry in device manager for it also.
For both devices other google accounts work fine, so I'm convinced it's an issue tied to my primary google account. The only thing I can think of is I've reached some sort of internal limit on the number of devices associated with an account, due to the high number of flashes over the years. I can live with using an additional signed in account for device manager, but it's annoying. I'll be interested if anyone ever finds a fix!

Yeah. The deal was irrefutable But I don't mind, my phone works well, I don't use s**tty apps.
Our buildnumber is:

I'll make a hard reset if it comes back. Her apps stored on the sd card, there is a lot of free space and only the most used apps are installed on her phone. So I've trusted in you guys to save it

I have been updated to android ten and now the lock screen will revert back to the lock screen every time you put in the pin even if its correct. I seen the pixel is having the problem also. Ive tried to change to a password instead of the in and it wont let me change it because it asks for the pin to change it and does the same thing and if you twice it crashes settings app. I went to turn oem unlock bootloader in case it turned off and couldn't get back in and it wont even let me turn oem unlock on because it ask for a pin and then does the same thing then setting app crashes. Is anyone experiencing this and what is the work around?
Not a real solution, but it appears you can add a new user and still use the phone while you wait for a real fix from Google/Essential.

Another post early in thread suggests resetting the phone in recovery, of course you will lose your apps and user data.

So I had been on Android 10 since it came out everything worked fine until yesterday was trying to put in my pin, and it would do what I explained. I didn't think anything of it until I seen the article about the pixel and then I knew it was the same bug. This almost has to be a server side change because my phone was fine until yesterday. I tried everything I could find to fix it and it will not let you change the user on essential. Ultimately I did reset in recovery because the phone isn't functional after this bug hits.

You can get into the settings with that method but it wont let you do anything from the setting that would be useful. I seen where on pixel you can change users and use the phone but this option wouldnt work on the essential for me.
You can try deleting /lockscreen.db in data/system/lockscreen.db
That will delete your current lock screen password but won't touch anything else. Just go in twrp and mount system and go to advanced/file manager and navigate to said file and swipe to delete.
Probably not very much help but just an idea...
