Shutdown checkpoints are stored in USERDATA/system/shutdown-checkpoints. The files are named “checkpoint-UNIXEPOCH”, and the files are in plain text. The timestamp in file name aligns with Modified time of file. The shutdown checkpoints keep a log of when the phone was shutdown/rebooted. Something worth noting is that the time is stored in local time and can also provide a reason for the shutdown (e.g., dead battery).
