I want to love the Unihertz Atom, but sadly it just doesn't work for me.
I got it specifically to have a phone to only call, text and message. But those are the exact things that don't reliably function. It often didn't receive messages or even calls unless the app was opened and in the foreground.
I factory reset it, tried activating and deactivating Unihertz's own energy management app, tried the original versions of Signal/Threema/Dialer/Messenger as well as their FOSS forks/alternatives, tried it with and without Google Services installed...
But whenever I thought it works now, after lots of testing, it would then stop getting the notifications again after a few days, without me changing anything. So eventually I gave up.
If it had worked, it would be my favorite phone. But it didn't. Now it's rooted and I just play around with Android on it.
(By the way, if someone knows how to re-enter deleted IMEI numbers on a Mediatek phone from Linux to get rid of the red warning text overlay, please help!)
