Hi mohamed, have you created a partnership with the other bluetooth device? perhaps you need to look at how this is set up.. but to be receiving data(?) then .. perhaps you have a partnership in place. sounds strange.. then again.. stranger and more frustrating things have happened with this O2 atom life. Have you had many issues with your phone like me (and all the others i suppose on this site) to report? be curious to know.

      Cyrax. thats your opinion but its not shared by a lot of o2 atom life users on this and many forums. this phone from what appears on a lot of user posts does have issues. theres no need to go through them because im sure you might like a bit of practice to go through and find out for yourself which appears you havent. i would be interested to find out if your phone is still working well in 6 months time or you have joined the chorus of dissatisfied customers.

          Hi.. its a hard decision if you got for your Bd i dont envy your situation because the person gave it with good intentions. i had a couple of the O2 lifes so far, long time user of the XDAII (old clunky phone) then upgraded only to find the lifes go dead on me. Im a HEAVY USER of phones making and receivng lots of calls, photos and voice notes and seriously for me this phone hasnt performed well. Ive been so unhappy with it. Im in a similar position because ive got dead O2's and dont know what to buy? ive gone back to using an old Siemens keypad mobile and its annoying the hell out of me because i love PDAs. Once a PDA user always one... but ..for me .this one has failed the test. sorry to sound so general.

                theyre pretty much calling the same tune that this phone HAS ISSUES. Good luck if you buy it

                  for your information my friends
                  http://www.businessmobileasia.com/
                  interesting O2 life rating is down to 4.8 out of 10. the o2 atom exec and o2 atom are equally rating poorly.

                    this device is absolutely useless,I cannot tell you enough how bad it is. I have to reset it 10 times a day cannot recieve calls when with customers. I am in IT and am not stupid when it comes to using mobiles. Today the processor use indicator has been going around for 3 hours, I cannot syncronise to PC and use the phone to make calls. i want my money back.

                      you paid $600!! .. the phones were priced in AUD$1100-$1200 4 MONTHS AGO. obviously the amount of complaints are being seen about the o2 atom life etc. that O2 are now reducing the price because the price online for an o2 atom life in 4 months is now $599. I wouldnt buy this phone if it were $5.99 let alone free. Ive had problems like you from the first few days into ownership.

                          The Atom Life is definitely a "lemon!" Just bought this 2 days ago, and I am having hearing problem aready.

                          Sound quality of callers is very low no matter what the phone volume is set. The phone hangs quite abit when clicking on some programs. I used Vito Audio Notes to record calls and ironically callers' voices were very loud, but I could not hear myself talking at all. Worse yet, the speaker sounded very broken. I am going to exchange it for something else.

                          I paid $600. I would keep it if it's free.

                          Bottom line: worse than a lowest end phone available today when it comes to call quality. Don't buy it!

                            there was a guy on another site proposing to take a class action to O2 over the poor performance of this phone.. In relation to other sites giving glossy reviews eg. cnet, asiamobile etc. websites. Dont believe what you read on o2 atom life as the reviewers have probably only used the phone once rather than for some weeks or a couple of months depending on how long your model lasts for. There are some real consistant problems emerging with the phone but its just not one or two issues .. its a whole myriad of problems with the o2 product. this product might look good but its not designed to last especially if you are a high call user and use the phone constantly or rely on it for business ...you might end up with a DEAD o2 atom life in about 3 or 4 months. For those that have had 4+ months use out of the phone... Good on you

                              Hi Kevin? you asking what the main problem of the O2 life is? try .. the phone is completely dead after 4 months. prior to that i put up with freezing, buttons not working, constant resets, poor signal and battery, slow speed, A LOOSE SCREEN that when you pressed it you could feel it moving, POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE, poor battery, slow, slow slow (despite claims of a fast processor) and the list goes on. buzzing of speaker phone was annoying and also people could hear me droping in and out during a conversation. Dont buy this phone. read the reviews by simply google searching other sites and you will find O2 atom, atom life, O2 exec phones are all the same. one word waste of money. the other thing is i bought my phone for AUD$1150 4 or so months ago, now i see theyre advertising online for $599. great investment huh. they must be trying to run these phones out because none of them are selling. wasted plenty of time with this phone in lost business with breakdowns of hardware.

                                    Hi Kevin, the O2 Atom Life is now running WM6. go for 3g capability of a mobile phone .. you wont regret it .. unfortunately as a user of this o2 life phone I WOULDNT recommend buying it - you will end up with a lot of heart ache and money down the drain. trust me, i am talking from experience here. Better look at another 3g capable phone, however, i cannot suggest one. Ive had nothing but problems with this o2 phone along with a number of other o2 users posting reviews of the o2 atom life below. just do a search of various o2 atom user reviews on other mobile sites if you dont believe the reviews on this site. The O2 atom life has been nothing but trouble for me .. sorry to say and dissapointment how a company could sell such a product at the price it commands and deliver junk.

                                        to the guy that posted below "unproven negative reviews" you must be blind. check all the reviews on other sites let alone this. this phone has a multitude of o2 atom life complaints. whats there to prove. i might ask you the same question and say how can we believe you that you have a phone to begin with and how do we know you dont work for a mobile phone seller that sells o2's, we can only give all the people who have had problems with this o2 atom life including myself the benefit of the doubt. My friend. talk to me and all the other angry o2 atom life owners here in 6 months time after your phone has had good use and tell us whether your phone which you are married to is still working or not?
