Hi All,

I am assuming that the Vox is the Xda Atmos under O2's branding (it looks identical minus the much better original styling).

We use these for the majority of our company phones. I am really getting sick of them though and wondered if anyone else who uses one frequently encounters any of the following problems:

- Dropped calls (mid conversation)
- Calls not being received, despite having signal
- Complete loss of GSM signal, despite another phone on the same network having a very good signal
- Random crashing
- Incredibly poor battery life despite the battery being brand new, power settings to max out the battery life and all but GSM connections turned off.

I am getting the above issues on most, if not all, of my Xda Atmos. They are all from O2, and mainly on the O2 network. But as the phones themselves are unlocked, I have also tried them on a variety of other networks with the same results.

I am thinking that it's an issue with the O2 ROM. WinMo smartphone edition cant be that bad can it?

Any input is appreciated, along with your own experiences of the phone.

Thanks.

NO do not try Vox stuff on it! It has 3G, a 400MHz processor and a second camera...it's the Wings! http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=413

lol thanks for that.

It was a toss up between the Vox and the Wings - Vox looked closer to it.
Will repost in the Wings forum.
