Looks like they've flashed your phone with an older version of ICS?

Great....

Just got notification that system update is ready for download...will get it done once get home


As for simlock and typing code in everytime its not how it should be....
 
so system downloaded update, resets it self, than animation of updating starts and few sec later changes to android on his back and red exclamation mark...

and Ive noticed, that previously when phone was starting there was only Google(before whole animation)
now, there is google and on bottom of the screen there is small image of unlocked padlock ...anyone knows what that is ??


so at the moment, I have nexus with old software...and unable to install new as now it says system up to date...

You're sure this padlock wasn't there before? They've unlocked your bootloader, possibly to flash and older ROM onto the phone. Very odd. I would call them and ask why they did this and can they provide you something in writing that unlocking your bootloader has not voided your warranty...

Sounds to me as they have flashed a Samsung build (yakjuxw - ITL41D-I9250XWKK5) on your phone and returned it with an unlocked bootloader.

Download “Android System Info”, look at system and then buildinfos. This shows a normal “yakju” build from Google which you now appear not to have:

It will tell you whether you have this Samsung build.

If it is this build then it will probably explain why the update failed. You may then want to look here:

Hope this helps. :)

will download this app now thanks


are there any advantages to have it unlocked ??
 
If you put ClockworkMod recovery on first, you can back the phone up as it is now, to restore later, than flash the new ROM.

I think you might actually be able to re-lock the bootloader, but it will wipe the phone.

i think phone is not rooted...clockworkmod recovery has problem with privileges ?
 
No, 'recovery', it's not an app. :) Do a little research on XDA, it's not the kind of thing you should walk in to blind. It's simple, but it's dangerous. As long as you can follow instructions you'll be fine.

I did a friends phone yesterday, unlock, flash recovery, flash ROM and kernel in maybe 10 minutes...
