    Hammer,
    You can save anything onto the memory card. In fact, I saved everything onto it and it is running smoothly. No problems whatsoever.

    Cheers,
    Will

      Hi
      Has anyone got a solution to sync the SD card data without dragging and dropping everytime.

      Which is the best software like Worldmate but uses less space is there a crack available for that software anywhere.

      Thanks in advance for the support.

        Hi,

        I find that the Atom is good but not like the Mini. The battery last's lesser time than the mini though I have the same usage and the same application. I also find that the phone hangs a lot and needs to be reset many time. This all after applying the latest update upto May2006.

        The new Activesync 4.1 is also less user friendly. In 3.8 we could sync selective contacts, and also files to the SD card but this activesync is useless. You have to do it all manually.

        I have tired contacting O2 Guys but they seem to be helpless with Microsoft not supporting them

            Raman,

            There's no way to configure your Activesync to sync all your files from your memory card. You gotta drag & drop your files from pc to Atom or the other way around for updates. There's no other way around as far as I know. That's what I've been doing. If anyone has a better way, please share it w/ us. Thanks

            -Will

              Hammer,

              Make sure your Atom is connected to your pc before you do this.
              Go to this link & click download (not download cab): http://spbsoftwarehouse.com/products/pocketplus/download.html?en
              Then when the download box pops up, you click run. When download is over, you accept the terms & condi... and you click 'Install registered version' & you punch in this serial: 30372645
              Then Activesync will do the rest. All you'll have left to do is go through the installation process on your Atom, which is quite simple.

              Cheers,
              Will

                      I had placed the order for this phone and then just a few hours later stumbled across this news that an upgraded version, the XDA Atom Exec, would be available in July. Luckily I was able to cancel my old order and will be waiting for Atom Exec. It'll have a faster CPU (520 mhz) and more ROM (192 mb). Just wanted to pass on this info to any other potential buyers:

                        gtr32,

                        Buddy, if you still have the ROM patch from January. Then, don't sit on your butt wondering why you got some many problems w/ your Atom. The last update for your phone came out in May, which makes you five months late. Ask any Atom user in this forum that had the latest ROM installed if they are facing any of the problems you're confronting. And since you're too lame to register on O2 to find out about the latest. Then, obviously you wouldn't know about it, would you? All this to say, users like you are pissed off about your phone because you don't seek for any means to make it better and then come to forums like this to b*tch about it and spoil people's fun or potential Atom users. I feel sorry for people like you. Get a life.

                          IMO Atom sux, i just cam back to see what people are saying about it and guys the ph been out since Jan 06 so 6mths later there are still problems. And if there is a new rom update don't thank O2 you fools they just get it from the same company that makes similar version for other mobile ph companies. Any one seen the new HP yes its the same as Atom. Any way if anyone can prove the new rom charges the Atom while it is turned on with a usb car charger i be more than delighted to know. And if your like me and don't like to register on 02 website to get your latest Rom update check this forum link out

                              hi! i have used the O2 atom for about 3 months now. With the recent ROM upgrade most of the problems ( phone hanging, poor camera, voice drop etc) have been ironed out. The camera is okay, and the phone handles decently. Only problem is the voice quality, which screeches at times. I thought this was a problem only with my phone and checked out new ones at the store and found that all 02 atom phones had the same shrill voice quality. so I wouldnt recommend this for people with sensitive ears.

                              2) Also if you talk longer than 15 minutes on a call, the phone heats up and u can feel the heat in your cheek for quite some time after that.

                              I also have an Imate pocketpc and by far nothing can beat its voice quality or the fact that it never gets hot.

                              Cheers!
                              rick.

                                Atom is really cool after the ROM upgrade. It's faster, smoother and all the other lackings are gone.

                                But did anyone check the USB modem conectivity issue?
                                Atom didn't come with USBModem_dialer and I have tired all possible ways(that i could think of and searched out) to connect. it just dosen't work. i'm pretty sure that it's not the hardware issue, may be the driver is needed. if anyone has any idea of where i can download is plz lemme know.

                                Enjoy

                                  This means the screen is capable of showing 256k colours but windows mobile restricts it to 65k colours.
