Wrong time showing before phone is decrypted at startup - Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I'm running Android N on my Nexus 6P and I noticed that the clock displayed on the screen to decrypt my phone at startup is wrong. Once the phone fully boots it OK but I was wondering if that can be changed and where would it be. It's a difference of about 1h15min earlier so it's not just a time zone issue.
The reason I'm asking is that I read the new clock app will run at that stage and alarms will go off even if the phone has not been decrypted and fully booted yet.

Same here, phone displays wrong time after booting so having an alarm that can work in this situation is a bit pointless as it goes off at the wrong time

my HD2 did a hard reset on its own...

i had a weird problem today; i was in a restaurant and got my phone out of my pocket, and was scrolling the tabs when it suddenly froze (which never happened to me before) and became very slow.
then right after that the wallpaper disappeared and when i scrolled at the music tab it didn't show my tracks so i thought it was the SD card so i soft reset but it stuck forever at the white startup screen.
but after a few attempts it passed it (took a veeeeery long time) but the weird thing is, it didn't start the system but took me through the initial setup steps as if i was starting my phone for its first time...
but strangely it kept my email accounts (didn't keep youtube or twitter)
after it started, sense didn't launch and it kept asking for my permission to run "cht-wall" and other stuff but nothing happened afterwards...then it shows that .NET is missing...also it didn't detect my network and it set itself to vibrate!
so i cannot go to home screen but i can open and scroll start menu and go to lock screen, and all my programs are still there (haven't tested if they work though)
also, i get an error report saying that cprog.exe had an error and the message won't close...
i did a hard reset and everything was solved, but i'm confused cuz it never happened before or even heard about it. also worried it might happen again.
can anyone tell me what happened?
sorry if i wrote a long topic but i wanted to be as detailed as possible
ROM: stock WWE 1.66.415.4
radio: updated from 2.06.51 to 2.10.50 a couple of days ago
thanks in advance

Android cannot load

Ive got a problem
Android cannot load anymore... damn it
My battery went dead 2 days ago, I started charging and wanted to load android, but it couldnt. It loads all files, goes to 'bios' screen and then to the screen with Android logo, but when it is just about to load, it goes back to 'bios' screen and there is no way to load the system.
Did it happen to anybody? I was actually supposed to change my Android version so I dont mind formating my card, but I have few numbers, pics and texts that I need to retrive, is there any folder/file where they are located??
Thanks

Phone crash after battery died!!

my battery was running low, (and coz poor battery issues with JPY), i didnt notice when it switched of. normally i use the power button to turn the screen on to unlock, but instead i realised the phone had been off as it was now booting up...it booted up fine went into the homescreen and then vibrated once and powered down.......now it was powering down for a long time and occasionally there were vibrations and the lights on the home keys were constantly on. the screen was black. i got home and tried to charge it but the progress bar showed no progress on charging, i tried to switch it on but it would go to startup screen vibrate cupla times and power down. so eventually had to do a hard reset in recovery mode. tried every option but in the end had todo it by wiping data.
now the thing is, is this supposed to happen? if ur battery suddenly losses power ur whole fone will screw up?
for future ref if ur battery dies dont try to switch ur fone on until u got some charge in it and use the home key to put screen on..
Sounds like it could have been faulty firmware .
JPY does not have a significant battery drain problem per se .

Black screen, vibrations and no boot after restart
Hello! I had almost the same experience (Black screen after reboot and occasional vibrations) only mine refused to boot even after memory wipe and after flashing new roms.
Was your phone rooted? Because I think rooting a 2.2.1 rom (XWJS3) was the beginning of my nightmare. keep in mind that the phone was working like charm for two months. This was the second time I had a problem. The first time the phone started after performing a factory reset by itself!
In case this happens to you next time and for every non experienced galaxy player (like me) reading this:
Don't panic! Blank screen, vibrations and no boot doesn't necessarily mean a hardware problem. Finally I managed to fix it flashing eclair and repartitioning with pit512. Now I'm a happy XWJS8 user
And a question for the experts: Any clue why this happened? Is it really a rooting issue? Can a cheap Chinese battery from ebay cause this?
everything was stock on mine, no root.......maybe thats why i could recover it??!!
Maybe! and I hope the reason is faulty firmware as JJEgan says. If this is true, your phone will be fixed by the next update.
I was very urge... the same happened again. It's been a month of smooth functioning and now after a simple restart, the device doesn't boot for absolutely no reason (Stuck on black screen constantly vibrating). Since my phone wasn't rooted, and I haven't seen many people talking about a problem like this I suspect:
1. Faulty hardware (for a few devices including yours and mine)
2. A Bad app.
Contacts Vanished
Hey Everyone
Im having similar problems, i updated my sgs to the js7 version of froyo, then rooted it with oneclick method. this was as i got the phone a month ago. Its been smooth sailing since then. But last night the phone powered down and wen it loaded up it had no contacts, my sms where still there but all the apps had a force close issue none worked. so cleared the cache in recovery. Still nothing so i did a factory reset and once loaded up. i formatted the sd and internal within the settings option. So the phone was now clean. I then connected to pc luckily had backups so installed titanium restored all my apps n settings. Using kies restored my contacts n thanks to an app called sms backup i restored those.
So all was well and worked again. I didnt restore the apps i had installed within the last week to make sure it was not a faulty app. I was happy, but now tonight it did it again. No contacts again.
Pls help
Any suggestions
That's exactly how it started for me. One month after rooting froyo 2.2.1 Suddenly everything force closes and the device hard resets by itself. I reinstall all the apps and then after one month and performing a simple restart, it refuses to boot. Stays in a black screen and vibrates every some seconds. I flash a new rom but does the same. Problem solved after repartitiong and flashing original eclair with pit 512. Reflashed a 2.2.1 rom and everything works perfect (the phone now is unrooted and with a nice clear stock rom). But then after one month again (!) I realise that some videos refuse to play. Trying to restart and craaash. black screen, vibrations and no boot. Did the same again (repartitioning and flashing) and now I wait for another month to pass and lose an hour of my life to do the same again. No idea why this is happening. Is it possible that rooting messes with something that stays faulty after restoring the file system? is there an app that we all installed and caused this mess? please this is the most serious problem I've red in this forum and still a mystery. I believe this thread should be sticky and we all share similar experiences because this looks completely random!

[Q] Settings change by themselves

It started as a weird feeling. I thought that I had just forgotten that I had changed a setting or two. But now I am certain that the phone changes some settings by itself.
Knock on keeps turning off by itself . I did also enable led notifications a couple of hours ago only to find them turned off now , after I plugged in my device (I didn't see the red light when I locked the screen). I am completely stock . I haven't received the latest OTA update though. Do I need to see a shrink or something strange is going on with the phone's software ?

I suggest you get an exorcist for your phone immediately, anyways all joking aside did this just begin or has it been happening for a while now, have you installed any weird apps/modules(if rooted), as a last resort you can backup apps(via carbon if not rooted or titanium backup if you are rooted) and music/videos/pictures to your pc and factory resetting to see if the issue persist

Thank you once again for you answers. I have the phone 3-4 days as I wrote to you in the other thread ! It has been happening from day one. I am completely stock , no root , no nothing. I don't want to hard reset but it may be obligatory in this case.
Yes, I have seen the LGG2 reset settings as well

I am so glad to see someone else posting about this. This happens to me so often and is so frustrating.
I see several different changes happening fairly frequently:
1. Date/time settings get changed (auto date time gets disabled, auto time zone gets disabled, use24 hour gets enabled, various combinations of these 3 settings change)
2. Knock on/off gets turned off
Less frequently:
1. Auto rotate turns off
2. Home Screen Background resets and/or theme changes
3. Allow Home screen looping gets disabled
I have Verizon LGG2, rooted,
Android 4.4.2
Baseband version: VS98024A-M8974A-AAAANAZM-2.0.20046
Kernel Version 3.4.0-perf-gdf89a11
Build Number: KOT491,VS98024A
have been unsuccessful updating to the latest OTA - figured it was because of root, after uninstalling root still had the error.
Not sure if that is related.
Both the reset issue and the lack of OTA update are annoying, but not so problematic that I want to reset my phone.
If anyone has seen this issue and/or has suggestions (including reset, I suppose), I'd appreciate it.
Thanks i n advance.

Device Restarts After A Few Minutes Of Use.

The Device I Speak Of Is A Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 8.0 AT&T (SM-T337A) As You Can Guess By Reading The Title, It Restarts After A Few Minutes. The Exact Time Varies, Was The Device Just Turned On? Has It Been On? It Happened Because I TRIED To Root, I AM NOT Rooted Still, Which Only Made Me Even More Fustrated. But, It's Happened Before, But I Fixed It By Deleting Kinguser From The File System, But The Damage Was Done. It, Unfortunately, Still Ran Slow Afterwards, But Got Better Over Time, But I Digress, I Thought That Since I Wasn't Using Kingroot It Wouldn't Happen Again, I Was Dead Wrong. Now It Runs Slow And Restarts After A Few Minutes While Using It. When I Try To Open Some Apps (Mainly Games) It Closes Before It Even Loads Fully. Another Thing I Noticed, I Turned On 'Show CPU Usage' And In The Area Where The Usage Data Is It Shows "sh" In Green. A Lot Of Them Too. I Think It's Part Of The Problem. Well, That's All For Now. Any New Info I Get I Will Post Here. I Hope Somebody Can Help.
