Hi guys
I read all your post re shutdown issue with O2 atom life, I have been having same problem, when battery reach 40-50% the phone shutdown by itselt, and even when battery fully charged, some time it still happens.
I discover one thing, when I hold the phone and shaking it , like when you shake hands with some one, the phone is turn off too. So I guess, the problem may be raised from the attactment between battery and the phone, not only the software. So if you 're upgrade it to WM6, may be not work to fix "shutdown " issue.

O2 life mobile issues
I bought two of these phones. Ive had so many problems with both phones from day 1. in a matter of months later .. the central navigation button doesnt work. the answer call button doesnt work, the end call button doesnt work, the phone is slow, the pictures are poor quality, the handsfree is BUZZING, the battery life is poor, the calls drop out and the signal strength is poor, the phone is slow to respond, it tells me my battery is running low on 20% capacity, if it runs out (of battery) then it takes 20+ minutes on charge before i can restart the phone, the navigation of windows software is poor (too complicated) not simple like old XDA II by O2 which i went through 5 of!!! and love those phones. O2 customer support is poor and the customer support dont ring you back when tell you. there are many many issues with O2 life phone issues problems and i have many complaints about o2 life mobile phone. I bought two of these o2 life mobile phones for my company after having five XDA II phones which worked extremely well for us. very bad phone indeed and O2 need to pick up their act because im leaving O2 and going to buy another brand!!!

I bought a O2 XDA Atom Life in Malaysiia and had problems with it from day one, it would go dead even though battery was > than 50% and a soft reset would not work. Had to plug into charge before the SW would load. Wasted a lot of time and had to rework all the sync files after hard reset. But the customer service in Kuala Lumpur was excellent, they replaced my phone with a new one and am starting to enjoy using the phone. But am keeping my fingers crossed, hope I do not have other problems. This is a very expensive phone and should not be having this problems. I wish I could charge/sue O2 for the time wasted and missed business calls.

Hi all.
I had bought this phone in Indonesia. The phone hang after i received continuous SMS. Like 10 or more. There is no explanation for this error.
I sent the phone to O2 service centre in Indonesia, but they had kept my phone for 2 weeks!
How could they be holding my phone for so long?
O2 service and product quality really makes me angry and dissapointed.
This is my first O2 device, prior to this, I owned Nokia N80.

There is a mistake in this data!
Atom Life's display is not 65K colors!
It's support 262K colours but because of Windows Mobile just 65,536 is effective!

I post this blog as a warning to all those of you out there who wish to buy an O2 product in India,the O2 customer service or rather harrasement centre in India( I guess that says it all)is simply fantastic.I purchased an O2 xda atom life and the phone developed a fault within the fourth day of use.The O2 policy calls for replacement of the product which they term as an "Out of the box failure" if the phone develops faults within the first month of usage.I promptly logged a fault call and was promised a replacement phone within 2 days.It has been fifty days since that call and several calls and emails later I am yet to get a replacement.Even the CEO Mark Billington to whom I wrote an email hasnt bothered to respond( Way to go O2!!!).The whole incident speaks volumes about how the ensuring customer delight programme works at O2.

What a buggy hunk of junk. I bought this phone a few months ago and hoped to use it for buisness. It does nothing but lock up and hang. Its very unuser friendly. If you want to make a call while driving good luck. No stylus no call. The screen has already got a bad scratch in it from comming in contact with a key in my pocket. There is no case made that clips onto a belt loop that i can find. The camera is worse than my first digital camera i bought 10 years ago. Ok thats enough. Anyone wanna buy a phone?

Hi
Please dont buy this device. I purchased this device in Bangkok and was in India for a vaccation. The mobile hang all of a sudden. A hard and soft reset doesnt work. After trying 10000 times to the call center in India i could finally get them online. As promised they got my device for service. After that there is no response, been trying for weeks together and no one lifts the phone in the customer care. No response for the email enquires also. A record of 1 hour 40 minutes i was trying continous and you get the same recorded message "All agents are busy..." Pathetic service and responses over mail. My STD phone bills are now costlier than the phone as i still keep trying to know the status of my handset. To be frank i dont know how good is the device as i did not use it more than 2 days. What i was afraid is the kind of support they offer, no responses in the call center or for the emails........there is no proper place to escalate this issue in the O2 site.

I have an o2 Atom Life black and htc p3600i in white. I can say when you touch atom life, it feels more sturdy and better built compare with htc p3600i or trinity as called by others.. trinity looks more elegant especially the black, but once touched more plastic than atom life.. but i like them both from different perspective thats why I bought them.

I almost bought this one until I found the shinny stripe in sides. It was so ugly and looked cheap. I would have bought it without it. Now, I am happy with HTC Trinity Black.

hello Pilar,
i suggest you claim for replacement of your atom life and make sure before leaving bring 3 active sim cards, smart, sun and globe for test. i am working in telecom company here in japan, and i believe there is nothing wrong with globe network, i have tested globe network for several SIMs on roaming during my business trip in manila.. a friendly advise.
