I got attention twice
My Atom's screen was vibrating...

I was looking to the today screen and suddenly screen vibrated (not phone or device vibration, only today display was vibrating)
I was able to read the text on the today screen (for example date and hour) but they were like shadowed and moving, shivering...

I hardreset at first time, but repeated after hardreset once...

Anyone has same problem?
Any commend?

both my girlfriend and i have atoms. mine is fine but hers has the issue you describe.

the screen appears to vibrate and then after a bit it's finished and all is fine and dandy again. it does not appear to affect the ability to use the phone. she has also had the situation where the screen just fades out and a soft reset is required to fix it.

i imagine it is a hardware fault but i don't want to tell her to take it back for a service/warranty claim as she had huge issues with her previous phone and knowing how crap O2 service is in australia i would hate to see her without her phone for 2 or 3 months. she uses daily and it would be impossible to be without it for even a week.

at the moment we are living with the issue. if it really fails then i guess we will have to do the warranty thing and she uses mine.

the upshot is...this vibrating is not a one off thing. we have it as well. it will continue to happen on your phone. if you do get it checked and fixed with O2 can you post your results here (especially time taken for O2 to deal with it) so we can see how to deal with this ourselves.
