My O2 Atom Life got a problem "automatically turn off it self when low battery" and if I try to turn on , it will shut down again while booting Windows ( Windows - Splash Screen )
By this case , people say it was cause of Battery and need to change a new battery to solve the problem.
So, I brought a new battery , but the problem still left ...
later I once had changed my SIM CARD to my other mobile . After , I tried to turn on my O2 atom life and it was turn on "completely" without shutting down while booting Windows. Also the "automatically turn off it self when low battery" is not occur when I am not insert SIM CARD
So , in conclude , No any problem occur when I'm not insert SIM CARD
Would anyone please tell me What the cause of this? ... Hardware of Software or how can I fix it?
- Thank you very much for every answer -

You mean the problem was fixed when you inserted a different SIM card?...that's strange...have you tried reflashing your phone and tried using the same "bad" SIM?

No reset below 70% energy
I have the same problem. Thanks to your discovery i am sure that it is a bug in the radio firmware. Seems that there are different radios ,because not all users of this device have that problem. For me, if i have to do a reset, for installing software or so, i switch the device into flight mode, and then i can do a reset even at 20% of energy !!! If the device hangs for some reason, try to reach the Comm-manager through the hardware-button "Start-Menu" to switch the phone off. If that doesn´t work, remove the SIM-card, restart your device, switch to flight mode (works without SIM-card inside) and then insert the card again. This last solution is not very comfortable, but in case of emergency it is rather useful.
My radio-firmware-number is AL1_KLNC2340_080121_RS001
Hopefully someone will write a new radio firmware without that lousy bug and tell us how to update our beloved AL.

If the problem is radio firmware you may have to flash your AL with an official ROM at O2 site. Have your AL flashed, so that you can also flash it with WM6.5. in case you want it.

I guess Atom Life is an extremely poorly built phone.
The reason of rebooting is the phone drawing too much power and it shuts down.
Without sim card, the 3G / mobile function will certainly draw up lots of power.

Maybe the phone function draws a lot of energy. But after rebooting the battery has lost around 2 or 3% of energy. I think this is normal and not booting below 70% must have other reasons, for example wrong recognition of the battery status, and that must be (i think so) a false parameter in the radio firmware (or in the startup sequence of the ROM?).

due to the bad battery and freezing of the phone, I have given up the atom life and get myself a touch HD. I do know that some of the revision of atom life would be better..

You should've upgraded your device's radio into AL1_KLNC2340_080121_RS001 before flashing, mate.
i did hardreset for my atom life, or maybe change your battery with the new one and than do hardreset...good luck...

i have an o2 xda 2 that hang on power up at O2 screen then stuck there
i had tested sw reset and even hardware reset but same
i had flashing the rom also but still same
any bro out there who might be able to help me pls
Are you also getting GSM error?
not only gsm bro, with or without sim also when power on stuck on O2 screen
You could try flashing a new rom using sd card method then address any other issues once you get a working pda. One other thing is try removing battery overnight.
I have same issue. Even I have unplug the battery overnight. It is same. I try to download the offical ROM from seeO2 website and upgrade the ROM. (It can upgrade via service mode only.) But it get a error 114 when the upgrade in Radio ROM. After that the screen is same at O2 starting screen and hang (can't off the device).
Please give me help and advice.

I only see the OS ROM version (1.60.00WWE) when the device startup and display "No GSM".
Please help!
After I upgrades the new WWE ROM , When I finished, I hard reset my device, and my atom exec stuck at O2 screen , I tried to go to bootloader to install again but I could not , it go until preparing to install the new rom, it notice that the connection errors, usb transfer fail, please use DSUU in OS mode and sync with PC first.
I thought maybe I still kept the mini SD card in the side when I hard reset so it caused this error.
Can anyone help me fix this ?!

Your atom exec lost its extROM.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=292115
This problem is also present in the Atom - and if you're getting that message, it means your bootloader has been updated to NOT allow flashing directly from it (thanks, Quanta).
I can't help you with reflashing the BL (you may want to do a search on these boards tho), but try this: turn the device on and leave it for awhile (say 10+ mins), and see if you can get into the Today Screen at least. If you can, simply sync as guest on your PC, then run the DSUU updater. I saved my hacked Atom (using the Exec rom) this way.
If you can't - then I think it's time to call in a warranty.

I have the same problem now
I've got the same problem with my ATOM.
Anyone help us plz??
i have same problem too, whenever i start my atom exec it directly goes to MN2 bootloader, i tried rom update but it asks me to run it in OS mode which i can't do as my device never goes past the bootloader. i have read of a miniSD card method to try upgrade but this bricked the atom in all cases i read.
Please we need a solution for this, my atom's warranty is over
I have upgraded and downgraded many times, never with a failure. I just upgraded to PDAVIET 4.0003. Went without a hitch but now my phone will not stay on the network, also it will every few minutes complain that there is no sim card. Card is fine as tested in my other phones. The interesting part is it functions fine on any 2.2 ROM.
Tried Smart1's True's and all PDAVIET, no WM6 allows the phone to work.
Cold resets don't resolve the issue. Is there something that could have gotten corrupted that is part of the phone OS and not in the ROM's?
I am at a loss to troubleshoot this issue.
Thanks for reading, any advice/suggestions is appreciated.
ron1n, what is the network protocol for your provider?
Do you use pap or chap, the setting choice in CommManager?
Is network set for auto in phone dialog?
In your connection settings, do you use Server assigned ip address or auto?
Since i have upgraded to PDAviet i have almost the same problem.
After soft-resetting my device no gsm connection is found.
The only solution is to go into phone option and start the manual search.
If it's connected it works without any problems.
Strange thing....I also tested a few gsm roms but always the same experience.

Reflash Radio ROM (2.47.21 or 2.69.21 will work)
To reply to all of your suggestions. I have tried 5 different radio roms, none will see the phone network (GSM not GPRS) for more than a few seconds with a weak signal, then they fail and either go to flight mode or say that the SIM is missing. To reiterate, this was working fine up until yesterday with a few different WM6 ROM's. Coincidentally, the rear speaker failed at the same time. I resolved that issue, but the lack of phone service persists, although all AKU 2.2 ROM's work fine. Very curious....

It is CHAP, although I am referring to the phone service not wireless GPRS. My network is configured for auto, although if I switch to manual (due to the lack of consistent conntection), it will not be able to see any networks, except briefly and intermittently.

WM6 Sim Card issues [solution, use radio rom 2.19.21]
I've been using WM6 for awhile now, I've tried SMART1.3, PDAVIET 4.0.0.01, 4.0.0.0.3,4.0.0.0.3a and finally 4.0.0.0.4 .. but yesterday i tried to flash back to SMART1.3. After downgrading and upgrading, i got unknown sim status ! since yesterday , I've change my Radio Rom and OS ( I've tried almost everything ) but i can't get my phone to work in WM6 !! when i flash back to wm5 ( any AKU 2.2 version ) i have no problem with phone or GSM but as soon as I upgrade to WM6, I got unkown Sim status ... anybody , have any Ideas ?!!
Same Problem !
I have exactly the same problem !! it's not from radio ROM or OS !! I've tried 3 different version of radio ROM, and almost every single WM6 OS that is out there ! my phone stop responding yesterday after i changed my OS from PDAVIET 4.0.0.0.4 to SMART1.3 ! since then I've tried everything, but I can't get the phone to work in any WM6 OS! although WM5 (any version of it) is okay !

Did it used to work?
Yes , it used to work ! I've been using WM6 for more than 2 weeks with no problem! recently I upgrade my os to PDAVIET 4.0.0.0.4, but I decide to change the OS back to SMART 1.3, after I changed it back, i got the error "Unknown SIM card , without the pin you can call emergency calls only" I tried my pin and PUK , but none works ! So i changed the OS to WM5 again. I've tried couple of different version of WM5 (JESTER, NVID) and I've found the phone works perfectly in wm5 !! as I said before I tried re-flashing my Radio ROM, but it didn't help !! i still can't get my phone to work in WM6 ! any of Pocket PC gurus, have any suggestion ?
S200 Gone Wacko with WM6 and I don't know why
Hello people
Okay so here is the situation, since about last week I have been using PDAViet 4.0.0.3 on my Qtek S200
Now I love this ROM..so much so that I spoon with it at night...um...crap lol Its fast and lite...but something went terribly terribly wrong yesterday
So around 1pm I disconnect my phone from my computer, and notice a "X" in the data connection arrows...okay I thought nothing of it. I go to a restaurant, get a phone call from my brother, and talk, and everything is fine. From there it went bonkers...it kept on trying to connect a GSM signal, and then would go out to no service...it would keep on trying and trying, and bogging down my phone....
So finally i got it stablize (with an EDGE data signal i thought) and of course a voice signal and went on my merry 2 hour drive back home to Montreal.
When I got to Montreal and was waiting in the dead moving traffic jam, I wanted to check the Windies cricket score on BBC, so I take out my phone and try to make a data connection. But again the X showed...i rebooted my phone and signal about 10 or 20 times, and finally got something...however by the time that happend I had arrived at home so i went and used my computer.
The GSM signal stayed, but I dont know if I had a data connection. I then went to a funeral, turned off my radio entirely, and then when I turn it back on...ooooooooo no signal...it would get 2 bars, and then drop, and then 2 bars "E" symbol, and then drop.
So from then on, i went nuts, opened up the back, took out the battery, checked the sim, installed another sim to make sure..and by now it went even worse..first INVALID SIM...then it went to MISSING SIM...urge to kill rising!
I finally said F it, and hard resetted my phone...but i noticed something upon the screen calibration..."NOTIFICATION ERROR...cannot find calnot.exe". After hard resetting and such, the problem still showed...
This morning, after leaving it overnight, it was still misbehaving...so I went to took it back down to the floating NVID file found here on XDA developers...and oddly enough...no more calnot.exe error...the radio signal is strong, and i get a data connection...So i tried to then upgrade to the new PDAViet 4.0.0.4s ROM, but again...calnot.exe error...so finally i am stuck at the NVID ROM...oy!
So I searched here on XDA Developers and on google...now while people have said they get the calnot.exe error, they also get this reglog.dll (or something to that effect) error as well...me on the other hand am only getting that calnot.exe error, which would seem to be the root of my problem.
What can I do fix this, and get back to the speedy 4.0.0.3 ROM (man I love that ROM)
Phone info:
ipl: 2.09
spl: 2.20.0000 (so I guess that my Qtek S200 is a G3 model)
radio: 02.47.21 (i even moved up to 02.69.21)
os: 2.20.7.34
so i really appreciate the help guys...take care...

Flash again the WM5 NoVid Rom,hard reset and if you come up with the same error,hard reset again... Tell me what happens... If it works flash PDAViet 4.0.0.0.3a...
Holy S*** I have the same Problem for like two weeks!!
Man , I have exactly the same problem !!! exactly !! i had PDaviet 4.0.0.0.4 and one day I got the same thing, No signal , then after i hard reset, the Calnot error ! then Hard reset again, and this time I got the replog error !
I get "Unknown Sim Card!" or "Unknow Sim Card status enter your pin" whenever I install WM6! My phone works perfectly in Wm5 though !!
I flashed radio rom in WM6, I also tried different sim Cards , but none works !I can not get the phone to work in wm6!
By the way, NVID is not a good rom to stay with.

In a way I am glad you are having the same problem...so I know I am not a nut lol (and nor am I alone)...but of course its not good to relish in someones downfall, so of course it is also a bad thing eh..
What ROM would you suggest then? NVID seems alright, but I don't know of any others out there (well somewhat)...thanks!
I wish we knew why it happened at first place!
for wm5, if you want a clean, fast and reliable Rom, try Jesterz Rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=284578
you might want to re flash the start-up image to HTC logo... you can find the .cap in the same thread.. I also updated the radio rom too, you can find it in prophet wiki.
Jesterz Rom is nice cause you don't have to uninstall anything, it's really clean and stable. it is by far better than NVID, but don't ask why cause i have to ramble a lot.
Oh by the way if you found out why this happened to us .. let me know

I don't know. In my country I have a htc services and they say to me that my motherboard must be replaced because is to hard to change only radio chip and they only change all motherboard. For 350 Eur(+some Eur) I can by new Tytn. Now I use my pda in my home (in toalet) via wireles to look internet. Work's fine, but sometimes freeze OS and I must do soft reset.
ok guys , i might found a temp solution or maybe it will work permenantely with some one , but i need some one who have spare time and steel nerves coz i'm sick and tired of trying many files and roms and radios .
so any one is willing to start this experiment with his hermes and his spare-time lets begin .
first of all i want to declare that this method revived my radio and i used my device for one day just fine receiving and making calls . then the next day i decided to make a hard reset to see if the radio will stay working , and the result was the radio was dead .
here we go .
1.flash you device with GM360 gold edition http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=329282 don't ask why just try it .
2.after the phone is flashed with gm360 and working ok with no radio or "no gsm" messege now you should flash your phone with your device manufacturer WM5 ROM .
3. to flash WM5 rom you need to follow mr.vanx guide for safe WM5 downgrade . http://www.mrvanx.org/cms/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=27&Itemid=26 here it is .
4. now after you've flashed WM5 successfully and your device is also working fine with it but still no radio or "no gsm" . you need to flash only radio to your device . no OS only the radio .
5. download this radio . http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334697 and unrar it on some folder . and don't flash it yet to your device .
6 download Olipro RUUwraper 5.2 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=298737 there u go.
7. now the files from step "5" which they are the radio 1.54 put the file ruuwrapper from step "6" in the same folder with them to start the radio upgrade using "RUUWrapper.exe" not "ROMUpgradeUt.exe" . when u run it you will have multiple choices , choose "Force Unsafe SSPL (not recommended)" . .
now the radio upgrade should go smoothly as it went for me the first time . after the radio upgrade is done u should be able to use ur radio fine .
now can some one take half the effort of me writing this long method and try it ? thanx for the feedback also .
good luck for all .
feedback
Just now I finished all, by your instruction, step by step. When do the last step, flashing radio rom it's stuck on 0%. Many thank's for help, but it does not work for me.
a-h-t1,
thx for your discription,I'll try your method as soon as i can(because ADSL isn't much available!!)
eraserbabyboy,
can you tell me when did this problem happen to you(i mean loosing GSM)??did it happen when you was flashing WM6 ROM??
I really want to know why this problem happen to me while i didn't have it before flashing??is flashing cause to a hardware problem???

Hamed I dont know what's happened with my hermes, because I get him with the no gsm error. I have a bootloader 1.09 with enable kitl mode. In PB I lose many, many night to boot os but without sucess. And post many question here, but without answer, a-h-t1 is the first men who try to help and meny 10x for that.
So, before 2 week I send my hermes to Imei-check and before few days I get it back with bootloader 1.01 mfg and instruction from imei teamroblem_Description: The radio chip is faulty 100%. Now the handset is usable as PDA only (wifi + bluetooth working too), but not as a phone (the GSM module refuse to answer/flash).
DO NOT attempt to upgrade the firmware in the phone with a firmware which has RADIO upgrade, as it will put the handset back to the brick mode!!!
Model is SVP3100.[/COLOR][/COLOR]
After that I put the SPL 2.30 Olipro to prevent any future damage, and continuing to "play" and experiment, because I don't have more than, to loose. I have P3300 who work's very nice....
It's possible to boot any OS without radio. (I use nbh tool 1.01 to extract nbh file to nb and after make Ruu_signed but without radio).Also try metod via SD card and same to you, stop when try to flash radio. Also it's happened on 12-13%(independed of the rom version) when start full RUU upgrade. And when try to flashing only radio they stop on 0%. On 12-13% ruu upgrade try to flash radio in this moment, and this is the end. I am not sure is this hardware problems, but imei (I dont belived too much) said YES. In win OS I don't have a imei identification (in device info/identity) and of course radio version is blank. Sometimes happened that os blocked(freeze) or device just totaly go to power off mode and I must to do soft reset. Is any way to totaly disabled phone function in registry? I mean that freeze when phone try to find network or sim, but I am not shure. Last night I open my devices, and get out motherboard, just to see this famously radio chip. It's not possible in "home made" to change yourself this chip. Only if I have a more lucky and found some broken hermes with ok motherboard for 100-150 eur...
I hope that my info just little help to you to know "mystery" about our problems.
And one more time 10x to a-h-t1!

I just tried it and same result like you
but many thx for a-h-t1 and eraserbabyboy's help.now I want to try fix it in hardware way!!
but if anyone has idea about our problem please say here.i think it's going to be common problem,because i see many people in xda who has the same problem.
Read this, to see how I solve my problem. But I still have a hope, that it's not hardware problem and in the future I hope that someone will found software key to solve our corrupted radio.

ok,i think it was almost three months ago that i had posted my last post!!
you know my problem and i feel it has became a common problem for poeple who have hermes,unfortunately.
last week,i found a service man who believed that my phone's problem is fixable.
so i gave my pda to him,and because he lives in another city,i returned to mine and waited for him.
yesterday i phoned him,and this is what he said to me:
"first,I tried software methods,but the result was nothing!then I disassembled the device and changed the piece of RF of your ppc.it hung first,but now it loads the windows and find the antenna too!!but immediatly after finding,it hangs."
he has used the Dopod's RF in my htc TyTN and thinks that this problem(hanging after finding the antenna) is because of not matched radiorom.
I have good feel about his say,and i'm trying to help him find the correct radio rom,because he is so busy and cant search the internet to find the radiorom.so I've mailed him the link of wiki's radio rom for hermes and I hope someday this tragedy will finish but i'm not sure.
if anyone have comment about this case please help us,specialy about the RF,because I don't know anything about the Radio Frequency.
I HAD the EXACT same problem I Hermes would get stuck at 11% EVERYtime I tried to flash the OS rom with WM6!! The upgrade process would start and then [email protected]! 11% and I would get ERROR 262 (loss of communication) No FIX anywhere, even with site full of "supposed Hermes Fanboys" Nothing NOBODY knows nothing bout this issue. BUT I think I have found a fix (I have recovered twice gonna do it 1 more time to confirm METHOD)
1a
Its called a 1a brick. Look in the sticky brick section. like 170+ pages of this issue. I believe I have the same device. No GSM/ no imei no radio. Can flash rom's all day long, as long as rom doesnt include GSM. Try to flash ANY GSM does nothing, let it sit 10hrs... Nice free PDA, till i can figure out the wiki & there must be hope for me. Till then my wiz100 keeps rocking. Like the 8525, but wanted it more as a phone then just pda.

I hope you will fix your device,but when I read about your solution,I felt that guy who brought back to life your device,has just used a ROM whitout GSM,the way that we have been using since months ago.if I'm in mistake so tell us more.
The end of the Tragedy
o0o0k!!
as I've said in my post,the service man that I love! replaced the RF of my pda,but new problem was hanging after finding the antena!!
as he told me yesterday,he tried another used RF,but this time the TyTN's one and it worked) and there is no problem.so after 4 months nearly I can use my pda.
as soon as I can,I will go to get my device and test it myself.
be wait for my smooth experience!!
What is this???
replaced the RF of my pda

its full name is RFSP=Radio Frequency Signal Processor.it's one of ICs on your Hermes mainboard.it needs a professional to replace.I'll explain more early.
but if you have same problem and have tried all of the the wiki methods then you can test my solution.
Hi to all. I solve my problem. Change myself motherboard. I buy second hand hermes with no working keyboard for 100eu (latter I solve even this problems,bad contact on flat cable)) and change the motherboard to my spv m3100. It's stupid to say that I solve this with some software, it's was hardware
faulty (or maybe not???) and I am very happy, because I can use my hermes again.
Now I have a one, my "old" motherboard (hermes) who working like pda, wi-fi and bluetooth also working, but without gsm. If any wish to do some experiment I am here, waiting for instruction. Also, I add some picture from the phase of changing motherboard.
Information for "experimental" hermes:
HERM 200
IPL-1.04
SPL-2.30.Olipro
Rom version:Schap's 4.00
Rom Date: 10/15/07
Radio version: none
Protocol version: none
ExtROM version: 3.60.20070822
No cid, no imei, can't flash radio (stuck in 0%)
Can't flash OS which contains radio (stuck in 12-13%)
Regards for all on this forum.
Hi,
how are you?
do you know is it possible to replace just radiochip to fix our hermes??
How I see, in "home made" it's not possible, because we don't have a special equipment for that operation. Even if you have, but where you can found this famously radio chip? If you wont, I can open my "experimental" Hermes and make a picture of all chip and send to you, but I think that on ftp you have all manuals and pictures with the name of each part. I use this manuals to safely open my hermes and myself change the motherboard.
If I understand you, your hermes working like PDA, without gsm. Do you have a same problem, that devices turn off yourself and until soft reset they don't wont to wake up? Also phone function working very slowly, sometimes it's not possible to activate connection manager...etc
And if you agree, please to continuing disscusion on this thread. Thank's.

yes,i have same problem(but when i downgraded it to wm5 it works better and faster!).and like you I still have hope that it's not a hardware problem and wish to find solution.next week I will send my PDA to a serviceman to know what is his idea (maybe it'll work).

Don't forget to inform us what's say serviceman....
Ok , i've joind the club of "no gsm" 3 months ago . and i've tried many many roms and radios and still no luck .
but in one try i've succeeded in flashing the radio to 100% and the radio worked very well and that night was 5 in the morning i danced on the desk when i saw it . i just couldn't belive it . i called my hermes 20 times from another mobile to hear the defult stupid WM5 ring tone , i missed it really
any way i couldn't believe my eyes , so i tried to do a hard reset to check if the radio will stay or go , it just vanished and again back NO GSM . i was disappointed really .
here's the way it succeeded with me and i was gonna post it for every one else as a solution but it happened with me once , and now it wont pass 0% .
here we go .
1.flash you device with GM360 gold edition http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=329282 don't ask why just try it .

i guess it was my one last lucky chance , and i blew it up with hard reset .
anyway the only solution right now for no gsm is to change motherboard unfortunatley
Nudge!!! :S
I lost my Radio today, also the IMEI is gone.
This morning it was working and this afternoon it just stopped, tried a hard reset, still nothing. Just tried to flash 1.54, but that didn't work, now trying 1.51 and i see the progress bar, but it stays at 0%
I will leave it this way at my computer and come back later, but it looks the radiorom is broken
I can flash everything except the radiopart, i really seems broken, i've tried flashing with different SPL versions including 2.60 olipro en SSPL.
Also the phone seems to be a lot slower.
But prior to this all the phone did hang often for the last few weeks, so i guess it was already starting to breakdown
i also have a almost similar experience, can anyone verify that the phone is already breaking down??

What exactly is your problem? I've been noticing that about 70% of my calls fail or hang when I attempt to dial, when I try again they usually go through. I also have problems sending txt messages very often. Is my phone on its way out? I haven't even had this phone for a year.....pisses me off

My phone started to hang a lot last week, just for a minute and then come back again, also losing the phone connection. First i thought it was some software i installed. New rom, problem stayed the same.
And then yesterday i totaly lost the radio part, can't flash it in any way, but the phone still seems a lot slower then normal, like it's still looking for the phone part or something
I gues it's just broken, and as it is older then a year, i gues it is really trashed.....
So i think i'm gona buy a new accu for my old phone, my abbo ends in aug 2008, so no new phone before then
