Narrative:
Upon rotation the command bars switched to the flight director. The lateral mode switched to roll and the vertical mode went to altitude. The autothrottles retarded and the flight director was commanding level off. I manually pushed the throttles forward and pitched the plane to approximately 15 degrees up. I asked the first officer for heading and flight level change. We went to manual speeds as the speed schedule was not sequencing either. Once at a safe altitude and on course we went back to LNAV and VNAV. Upon decent into ZZZ1 we did not have a VNAV profile and were unable to fly the STAR as published and received guidance from ATC. About 50 miles out of sea the VNAV profile populated.
