Does anyone know how to stop the ATOM from changing the view to landscape each time the camera button is selected?... been the same on all roms and the button is assigned to the camera only yet when pushed it flicks the screen sideways, then when exiting it goes back portrait - its annoying and i'd like to stop it...
Also with the *leaked* rom anyone know how to get the clock back up the top instead of the battery indicator which doesnt change no matter how charged the phone is?..
FTR... the 3second delay patch works on *Leaked* rom with MP3's as well as other formats..
Cheers

XDA Atom - Issues with new rom
I've just switched from the XDA2i to the Atom and am starting to wish I didn't. I bought this phone on ebay.com/au and it was only 2 wks old, the chap said he no longer needed it for work....probably got hacked off with it being so buggy.
I'm running the new 20060217b1wwe rom with the radio r060221n_mn1arc_rs00045 as the old rom (one which came pre loaded) constantly froze and needed soft re-setting.
The issues I'm having are as follows:
1. When phone is in standby after a few mins the green led stops flashing and it no longer accepts incoming calls and goes straight to voicemail until I press the power button, it then searches for a network and the green light flashes again.
2. When listening to the radio there is a constant buzz in the background.
3. Sound only comes out of the right headphone ( I've seen in another post that this has happened to others, a suggested 2.5mm to 3.5mm adapter was the fix. Surley the headphone which comes with it should work properly!!)
Also are there any updates which sets the phone up with UK settings and not Australian defaults
Why do O2 release phones without fully testing it....it hacks me off.......Anyway if someone could help me out with my above problems before I launch it from the 15th floor of my office building that'll be great
Me too. I've got an Atom few days ago and using same rom and radio as yours. I find 3 problem with it:
1. Green led stops flashing
2. Battery lasted so quick, usually have to re-charge after 10 hours (with only 1 hours talk time, no bluetooth, infrared and wifi.
3. Wi-fi is buggy. After connected, it auto disconnected .
I'll try to re-flash ROM.
Does anyone can help.
I hope you have seen the new ROM (test only) on ftp? Follow the link in the Atom Upgrading section
Did you try "not for sale" version? I'm downloading...
my issues with the Atom
Hi all
I have been using the XDA IIi for the last 1 and 1/2 years, and got this present from myboss...an ATOM. I dont have the same problems, but some are similar I guess.
1.After I receive an MMS, the phone stays connected to the Internet, or rather connected to GPRS/EDGE. After successful downloading, it remains connected. Any ideas why? in the IIi it disconnects after downloading, and also if my browser remains inactive for some time.
2.Synchronization is terrible. Most of the time, when i plug in to sync, there will be an error, then i unplug and plug it back, it may sync. this is terrible. Im using active sync 4.1
3. This terrible phone needs awful lot of reseting. Even to check the System info, i needed to reset the bugger.
4. This is very very slow.. and battery power drains so much. Im only using SPB pocket plus 3.1.1 the oly external software running on the Atom.
My Rom version
20060123B1WWE
Radio version
R060221N_MN1ARC_ RS00045
Aprrecite if any one could advise.
cheers
SPB pocket plus is known to conflict with atom performance.
By the way why have you not updated your ROM to any of the non-official ones floating around? First was the Leaked ROM, and just 2 days ago came the Test ROM, which, in my personal opinion, is tops so far.
Thanks victoradjei for the update.
So guess ill have to remove the SPB for now.
Actually i havn't been around the forum, so have not got real updates from here. Will follow it up.
By the way, is the performance better with the new ROMs.
cheers
the not for sale rom is the best so far!!!try it!
No Sound coming from left earphone.....
Since I posted my issues above i've found that most of my issues were to do with my virgin payg sim. When I inserted my works vodaphone sim I had no connection issues at all. All other quirks seem to have disappeared too....with the exception of the headset problem. I only get sound from the right headset and also I can not use with microphone on the headset either.....I purchased the 2.5mm to 3.5mm adapter and bought some new headphones but to no avail.....Does anyone else have this problem if so how was it resolved??
My Atom green led stop flashing after few minute - always ON (offcouse it is network registered). Is it normal ? Like other HTC green led must flashing when registered to network.

Er, did u upgrade from a previous ActiveSync? Remove the ActiveSync installation totally (Even the residual files), and perform a clean install of ActiveSync 4.1.
I find that the old files of ActiveSync sometimes conflict with ATOM synchronization...dunno why.
Hope this helps.

Hello all,
After going on a holiday I have found that the time on my PC and PDA are out of sync! Have disabled the sync with network, but when a add a calnder item on the PC and it sync with activsyn it is out by 1 hour!! The time on the PC and PDA are the same its just that in the apps (spb, and Pocket Informant) they are out by 1 hour. Looks like a hard reset is in order but if an easy way can be found please help!!
Thanks to all!
...experimenting
OK it looks as if the server that the PDA "syncs" to is not correct and syncing the wrong time for Perth Australia....probably has to do with western Australia reverting back so as not to have daylight savings anymore.
I say this as I did a hard reset and the PDA is still 1 hour ahead (even though you pick Perth as being 8+ hrs).
Could someone else try setting their PDA temporarily to Perth time and seeing if it comes out correctly with their time zone?? ....just to let me know I'm not crazy!! How/who can you advise saying that the activsync "sync clock" is not correct???
Anyone who wants to help...much appreciated!!!
Hello,
I have recently gotten myself an HD2 and i am very happy with it (apart from running into bugs every day)
the problem i have is the following, every other day i need to soft-reset my phone in order to get my syncing working again. The weather and windows live mail wont update unless i reset the phone, this is bothering me a lot and i havent been able to find a solution to it. Does anyone here know how to fix this?
Greetz,
Mega
I have exactly the same problem..
Weather and email won't synchronise. Phone tells me that I can't be connected to the network. Than I turn the data connection on and off, and than it works for 30 minutes or something. And than the phone refuses to synchronise automatically until I do the same thing again.
ROM: 1.48.404.2 NLD
Sorry for my poor english
i have the NLD Rom as well, another thing is that MSN instantly tells me i have no or poor connection.
anyone knows something for this?
Chaps,
Have you checked to ensure your SIM cards in your phones are 3GS compatible, ie the latest version Sim cards?
WB
in my previous phones (Touch HD and Touch) the syncing worked without any problems with the same SIM card. but even with HDSPA it does not sync
*bump* anyone?
i found out that the connection was permanently lost after going through a zone known as one without data reception
3g and hdspa all have trouble connecting in and near these zone
for dutchies: train amsterdam sloterdijk to haarlem spaarnwoude has this issue (vodafone)
*bump again*
Sim card is all ok
connectivity butts out after a while idle time
- MSN Messenger not signing in
- Weather not updating
- Mail not syncing
Please, anyone? solutions found here did not work for me...
Weird problem here... the clock on my HD2 is always about 4 minutes ahead of the actual time. I think it picks up the time from the network provider (in my case Vodafone) but wanted to know if anyone else has experienced this problem (on Vodafone or others).
I've tried a soft reset but that doesn't help.
Interestingly, I've tried another vodafone SIM (older one), which is not GPRS/3G enabled and the time is spot on!
Any ideas / suggestions gratefully received...
Thanks,
intgom

hey mate... I don't know if this is responsible for that, but try going in Settings Tab-> Data Services and disable Internet time sync... Since you mention that you have used a non internet enabled sim card, I am assuming is just that.. When you say is 4 minutes fast, do you mean faster than your hand watch lets say or faster than your pc time which synchronises with internet? hope this helps
Thanks leftkats. The time is 4 mins faster than my watch, wall clock and pc time, all of which are the same as: http://wwp.greenwichmeantime.com/info/current-time.htm
I disabled internet time sync and soft-reset - no change. I could of course set the time manually, but that kind of defeats the purpose of having such a device.
I noticed that when re-enabling internet time sync, the warning message about extra charges mentions wireless provider, not data provider. Any idea where it's going for it's time sync?
