I need the appropriate admin to contact me on this one...
My password has changed without me changing it 4-5 times over the last 24 hours. I send the reset to my email, change it to something new, and it changes to something unknown to me an hour or so later. What is going on???

Why do you think your password keeps changing?
When you log in, try clicking "Remember me" - this will reset the login cookie and may fix the issue you are having.

No when I refresh it seems to time out which it has not before. When I log in using my prior password, it says it's wrong.
What times out? The page load?

Nothing times out, it just says my password is wrong after refreshing after a few minutes. Have to go through the whole reset password crap
Little help please, have just purchased a M9 second hand and have had some issues trying to log into my google account.
The phone has been hard reset and starts up as normal, once I connect to the wifi and get past that when it asks me to enter my gmail and password it always sends me back to the wifi step, not allowing me to get into the home screen or even to skip the google account registration. Even worse is that I received an email from google saying it registered my log in. Any help?
You have become a victim of google frp (factory reset protection).
Hit youtube. There is a recent post that shows you how to get around it. I think its by rootjunky?..
The problem is not you. It's google's silly, flawed system.

It's a new security feature designed to prevent someone from stealing a phone and resetting it to use it. Even if you reset it, you have to authorize it at least once to prove it's yours.
Hello, as I am now aware after the fact, I did a lock boot loader 'factory' reset thinking that wiped he phone, I sold it, and now I guess it needs my login to proceed. Question 1 is, is there any bypass for this? 2. Is there a safe way to temporarily give him a temp password or something? Appreciate your help
I do have 2 step verify turned on

If you change you password now, he will have to wait 72 hours. So you could do that and you could give it to him over the phone, give him about two seconds to enter it and then you change it on your end.
Or you could do it with your current password, but you probably used it elsewhere.
But that is risky. He could just log in via computer and change it and own your account.
Can you meet him in person?
Or he sends it back to you.
Those are the only options I know of.

I've been in the same situation with previous my phone. My way around it was to enable 2-Step Authentication and give him my password and approve the login on my end immediately after that, I changed my password and didn't have to worry about him accessing anything from there.?

There is a workaround out there for marshmallow that may work on Nougat. I won't link it though, sorry. But if you search hard enough...
It's a security thing.

Cant he just log in to his google account and go to his list of devices and remove that device from his google account ? If he removed it from his google account should not someone else be able to add their google account to it ? I"am curious on this to as I will be selling my one pixel xl as I got a 128 to replace it.
On Htc devices normally you can do a RUU and it will put it back to 100% stock removing your google account, but yeah this is no Htc unfortunately it is but its not lol.

None of that will work.
It's called FRP. Factory Reset Protection. It is to stop exactly what you describe if someone steals it. Can't reset it and use it. You have to manually remove the Google account before you reset it and sell it.

Well yeah that is a given I figured besides removing your account from the device you had to log in to google.com and remove the device id from your google account on line.

I believe it will work. If he logs in to his google account on his computer he can find the devices attached to his account and remove that device id from his google account then the guy that bought the phone can remove his google account from the phone and put his own google account on the phone. The guy just needs to remove the device id off of his google account on line then the purchaser can add his own google account.
There's not a single response from original poster. I would give this one a wide berth with respect to suggestions by community dogooders.
Thanks for all the suggestions! I guess no bypass exists for the latest version of Nougat, I offered to pay shipping both ways so that I can properly wipe the phone, but he doesn't trust I will send it back?..hmmm..
Under devices in my Google Account I can "Remove account access", what will this do, this almost sounds like it will solve the problem but Im not sure exactly what this means. Will it not allow that phone to access my account any more or will it un-attach my account from the phone so that He can use it? Thanks again for all your help, lots of good suggestions
Edit: Im going to try Rydah's method...2 step verify, give pword, authorize from my phone, then change password back

I"am not sure what that is, but didnt you have a sec tion that listed attached devices ? I have had that option on my google account and I did physically remove a phone that I was selling. I believe it was like a year ago. If you cant find it maybe you can get support from google such as online support. Honestly I think the option to remove the device is in your account settings when logged in to your google account through a browser such as google chrome or firefox.
Next time, remove any screen lock security on the phone, reboot, then do your factory reset. This will allow anyone to setup the used phone under their credentials.

That alone will NOT bypass FRP. He has to remove his Google Account under Settings > Accounts before doing a factory reset. After that, I always go back and make sure I can set the phone up while skipping the Google Account login.

You would think they would implement a feature that allows you to remove the lock remotely. For example with icloud's find my iPhone you can go to iCloud.com and remove a device if you want to.
Flash-all.bat before you sell the phone and all will be well. Hopefully you do this going forward for anew new sales, lol.
Can't you just remote wipe the phone from the android device manager webpage?
Never had an issue with this app doing this before, but here we are. I've made sure my number was correct, and even added the Messages app to MagiskHide (which I've never had to do before). It still is stuck. Eventually it gives up trying to verify, but tapping the button just repeats the same issue again. Any ideas?

It's really annoying I've had this before. What I did I'd clear data cache in the messages app restart phone then do same again delete data cache then open messages app and try again. If that fails then you have to turn chat off for 7 days don't try turning chat on within the 7 days otherwise it resets to 7 days again. It's a right pain in the but.
I wish I had a answer for you. I was having the same issue on stock, switching to global, switching to eu, etc. Just a couple nights ago I installed magisk and no modules and left my phone alone for a bit (maybe a hour?), When I picked it back up I had 10 encrypted messages I couldn't read come in from a friend that must have came in over the past couple weeks. It was just random.

I tried Dale's suggestion, clearing data and cache and rebooting the phone. After a minute it popped up the message "enabling chat features, we'll let you know when it's ready." Checked the settings 15 minutes later, and it said "Trying to verify..." STILL but the button to manually verify was usable.
This sucks.
This had happened to me ever since I got the phone and since my carrier is Verizon, It didn't work right out the gate and tried so many different solutions.
then I read that it could still be linked to your old phone so i put my sim card back and then turned off features and then popped it back to the OP and then just left the messages app run in the background and then it suddenly said chat features enabled.
I don't know if this will help you but it worked for mine.

I've had multiple issues with apps not sending OTP codes or being able to log in completely, and I even think I've had the same issue you are having when I had "dns.adguard.com" set as my private dns setting. Also, if you use AdAway, that could cause the issue. For some reason I have to disable AdAway to use the Amazon app. Weird.

If you have some sort of vpn running, try disabling it and activating chat features. For me it won't work until I turn my vpn off.

Oh yep, in fact I had another thread about that. Turns out the new AdAway seems to inadvertently block a lot of things. Try adding "*amazon*" (without quotation marks) to the whitelist. PayPal was another I needed to add to the whitelist. I also added Google to see if it'd work for this, but nah... No such luck.

Thanks for the Amazon tip! I was trying to figure it out for the longest time. Even tried the hard way of adding it a long time ago. Just got used to disabling it to use the app or using Amazon through a browser.
It always takes a minute for my chat features to be enabled. Whenever I get a new phone, I always get the message saying "chat features are unavailable for this device" then after a few hours/days, the pop up says that they're ready. I think I leave Messages open in the background. Never had to disable it on the previous device. T-Mobile user here.

Sure thing, glad I could help. If anything, though, you should thank @terlynn4 for that whitelisting suggestion.
In my case this has been going on for a good few days. I've done websearches and researched all the possible causes and solutions I could find, but nothing has worked in my case. Yet. I think the main issue is that I'm not getting the authorization code that Google sends via a short-code service text or whatever those are called.

Usually when I don't receive the code, it's because AdAway or private DNS settings as stated before. But since you're not using any of those, I'm not sure what else would be preventing from sending the code. Is there any way you can use the Messages for Web feature, bring up your messages on PC, send the code that way and see if it comes up on the web?
I had the exact same issue as you, the issue was that Verizon still had my old phone associated with my account. Verizon support asked my for my iccid (16 digit number physically printed on the sim card), and after they associated it with my new phone I received the backlog of all the sms from short codes that I had missed and rcs verified after 15 minutes and a reboot.

I had the exact same issue on verizon, but with a globel version. Wouldnt recognize the phone at all. After calling, they pushed me to tech support. Because the phone isnt in their system, the guy had to take an IMEI from another CDMA-Less phone, and enable the CDMA-Less feature. Then he put my IMEI back. Rebooted, and got 2 days worth of texts, and chat features enabled instantly.
The guy said there's a chance that "cleaners" will comb through accounts and reset it, but if it happens, I just have to do the same thing again.
The "Find my device" voice, "I´m Here" spontaniously activates on my Moto G 5G Plus from time to time. I have deactivated "Find my device" in settings, but it stil comes on, quite loudly, even though the phone is set on silent. It can be quite annoying, especially if it does it in the middle of a meeting. Does enyone have an explanation and a solution?

Yep.
Go to myaccount.google.com/security
Change your password and use a minimum of 8 characters with at least 1 of each: upper case, lower case, number, special character. You can make it easy by substituting characters or numbers for letters in a word: automobile becomes @Ut0mOb!l3
Turn on 2 step verification. Recommend you use your phone number as it's less likely that someone can intercept your texts, vs have access to your email if they already have your password
Next go to myaccount.google.com/device-activity and sign out any devices you don't recognize
Thanks for your detailed reply. By the time I read it, I had been through all the steps. Change of password, signouts and check for unauthorized activity. I couldn't find any, so I guess I'll just have to wait and see - unless others have better ideas.
