HTC Rhyme text & call reminder

Forgive me as the HTC Rhyme is my first smartphone. I'm used to my old school phones, where when I had a text or call that I missed, the phone would continue to "alert" me via chime or whatever every 15 minutes or whatever I designated. I'm now constantly not realizing that I've missed a call or text as my Rhyme doesn't make noise to alert me after the fact. Anyone know if this is something i can set up?

I know! I am having the same issue.......I am used to hearing my old phone "notifying" me when I get a text, I'm still working with this. This too is my first smartphone. It is my second full day with the phone, I have re-set the notification tone to see if that will help.

HTC Rhyme dropping calls!!!

I have had this phone for just under a week. When I make phone calls and Im on the phone for a while, all the sudden it will hang up on people. Im not hitting any buttons. Im not happy with this phone and didnt know what my options were since I just upgraded or if this is a common problem with this phone. I do not want to me stuck with a phone for 2 years that is dropping calls. Thanks

Hello there tinkntaz. I am happy to see that you upgraded your device and purchased a brand new HTC Rhyme. I'm not happy with how the phone is performing for you and I want to make sure that we get it up and running and fully functional. I can assure you that this is not a common issue? Does this happen on all calls or intermittanly?
One thing I want you to make sure is that the back cover of your phone is secured tightly, because that is where the phones antenna is located and if the back cover is loose that could affect call signal strength.
Try doing a soft reset as well by powering off the device and removing the battery. Leave the battery out for about 30 seconds. After 30 seconds go ahead and put the battery back in and power the device back on and test the calls again for me. If this doesn't work, we'll have to go ahead and dig deeper. What is your zip code so I can check your coverage area? Have you always had service in this area?
Also, if you are not satisfied with the device and still within the 14 day worry free garuntee period you can return the device and exchange it for something that you are more comfortable with. Please advise if you need additional assistance.

I need help/suggestions with the HTC Rhyme

Hello,
I have the HTC Rhyme and I am so unhappy with it. I hate knowing I have to wait until 2014 until I can upgrade. I am wondering if anyone else has the issues I have with mine. 1.) Drops calls alot even when I have all bars. 2.) It is very slow if I try to pull something up online. 3.) My phone numbers seem to disappear at nothing. 3.) My phone cuts off randomly without my knowing it. 4.) My charge never lasts long at all. In fact I had straight talk before and that phone stayed charged forever and it was a smart phone as well. 5.) My apps disappear as well. 6.) When I am talking to family and friends they are always asking me to repeat myself or I cant hear them. 7.) Trying to send a picture is like pulling teeth about near impossible for me to do. 8.) Text messages gets to where they are going sometimes and sometimes not. 9.) And try to find a decent case for this phone is not easy. In fact I've not found one yet that I like thats not plastic or silicone.
Is anyone else having these problems.?? I believe my phone is a lemon if I'm the only one having these problems. I am not a person to complain about things but even my family and friends say I have a piece of crap for a phone. What do I do?? Just got the phone in May.

I totally agree with Ginny. I have had my phone for about a month. It won't hold a charge. Someone suggested turning it off overnight to see if it will take a full charge. After I did, it wouln't come on. Still didn't get a full charge. When I place it in the docking station, it gets so hot I can't hold it to my ear. It is dropping calls even when I have the full bars. At times, my phone shows that I am still connected on the call, but the other person can't hear me and hang up. This is crap. I can't go until 2014 to get a decent phone. I want a different phone. I had a little crappy Samsung Galaxy with TMOBILE and it stayed charged, never over heated, seldom dropped calls and I gave it up for THIS? Surely you people must have some kind of replacement plan with this phone given all the people that are having the same issues that apparently are not getting fixed. When I switched from TMOBILE, the guy that helped me with my new phone and plan swore by this phone. I had done my homework and had seen all the negative responses to the phone, so when I asked him about it during his sales pitch, he assured me everything had been updated and it wasn't happening any longer. Given that he was a Verizon representative, I believed him.

HTC Rhyme crashed - trying to recover sms from sd card

Hello. HTC Rhyme crashed and I'm trying to recover SMS texts from the SD Card. There is a folder on the SD card labeled "sms_backup". WIthin that folder, there is an unidentifiable file that is 29KB. In the type of file block, it simply says "File." Can I restore these on the phone to a readable format - if so, how? Tried to transfer to a PC just for historical purposes, but regardless of which program I use to open it, it comes up in some type of cryptic code. Please help.

Jay1, I know it can be difficult to lose precious info on your phone! The phone does not automatically backup SMS. Do you remember previously downloading an SMS backup application? If you did, you can re-download that application to recover your SMS. Search for SMS backup applications in the PlayStore and give it a try.

Help, I can't update my HTC Rhyme Software.

I have the version 1.26.605.11 I've tried everything i know. I called *228 and chose option 2. I Restarted my phone numerous amounts of times. I wiped my catche, I updated Google play. When i chose the check new option it just goes back to the status and check new screen. It doesn't tell me if a new update is there.

I've tried downloading the latest HTC Rhyme software update-> (ADR63V_2.20.605.13-2.20.605.3), and keep getting an error graphic (red triangle with exclamation point inside). The software status says "Update Failed"; Code: 410. I've tried troubleshooting and re-booting the phone several times, made sure the phone is fully charge, etc... still to no avail. Here's a screenshot of the information.
Please advise. Thanks.

? control volume on the HTC Rhyme blue tooth mode?

How does one control the volume when the HTC Rhyme is in the charging dock station (blue tooth mode? I just purchased an HTC Rhyme and unfortunately at night need to receive calls while the Rhyme is in it's docking station the ring is obnoxiously loud. I have tried volume control on the phone. There is not a control on the docking station. I even tried turning the blue tooth off but it automatically is turned on when you place the phone in the docking station. Any words of advice out there???

I'm sure there should be a option menu that determains if bluetooth gets activated or not, I would check the options under the settings menu for connecting devices..
As for the volume check and see if the option in Settings / Audio does not have the option checkedto "Use the call volume for notification", so the volume can be seperate from others and see if that helps..

HTC Rhyme will not come on

I have had my HTC Rhyme for a little over six weeks now, and after I got off of work today my phone would not turn on. I left it alone for a little while, and tried again to turn it on. It booted up to the HTC screen and then stopped, and began repeating that. HTC Screen, Black Screen, HTC Screen, Black screen...so on and so forth, eventually it stopped after a couple of hours, and i plugged the charger in. The LED light is not even coming on, and I've tried the hard factory reset, the screen with three androids never even shows up. Help.

I can imagine how frustrating it must be not being able to use the phone the way you are supposed to.
It sounds as though you have tried some steps already. When you tried to reset the device did you
Press and hold down the Power Key (upper-right corner).
Select Power Off.
Press and hold the volume down key then briefly press the Power / End key.
When the HBOOT screen appears, release the volume down key.
Press the volume down key to select Factory Reset then press the Power / End key.
If these steps haven't worked, we need to look into replacing it since there isn't anything you can do with it. You can go to any Verizon store http://bit.ly/3SdsA or you can call us from a different device at 800.922.0204 option 3 to have it replaced.

My Iphone 5s doesn't ring anymore (sms, whatsapp, phone call, reminder in the calendar, etc)

My Iphone 5s doesn't ring anymore (sms, whatsapp, phone call, reminder in the calendar, etc) I can't find why.
I trieds to go on Youtube and for that I have sound so it is just for the rings.
Can somebody help me please?
Thank you so much!
Mary

Have you checked your mute switch (right above the volume buttons)? If you see orange, it is muted and will affect the rings, but not the audio on YouTube.
Just toggle the switch so you don't see the orange and check again.

My HTC Rhyme will not update?

I have had my htc Rhyme for about a year now. It has been running really slow. I have been trying to update for about 2 months not . I keep getting a error message " Server unavailable. Check for software update under settings when service is available". I have tried to update in 3g and in 4g . I am not sure why it will not update. Any suggestions?

Kassie1214, I can certainly help you figure out why the update is going thru so we can get your phone back functional. First, what software version do you currently have? You can check under Settings, About phone. The current version is 2.20.605.3 710RD. If you already have this version, you are current. If not, try rebooting and attempt the update again. The update was previously put on pause, but resumed 7/11. Try also dialing *228 send option 2 then attempt the update again. If no change, clear system cache. This will not wipe data on the device.
1. Boot into recovery
o Press and hold Power, Choose "Restart" option
o When screen turns off, press and hold Volume Down and Power
2. When the white HBOOT screen appears, use the volume button to move down to “RECOVERY.”
3. Press the Power button to select “RECOVERY.”
4. When the triangle and exclamation appears, hold the Volume Up and Power button at the same time.
5. Using the volume button, scroll down to “Wipe cache partition” and select it.
6. Select "Reboot system now"
Let me know if you still need assistance loading the software.

Call Reminder - PROBLEM please help

I showed my boss how to use call reminder on his cell phone and now everytime he leaves my office it reminds him to call me ... this should have only happened the one time he used it but his phone is now reminding him to call me everytime he leaves my office. How do I get this to stop?

I haven't had that happen. Has he tried any troubleshooting at all? Like rebooting his phone?

I've had my HTC Rhyme for about 4 months and it updated automatically to the software that was right before Google Play. When I try to update to Google Play, it says there's no service, but there is. What should I do?

Hello!
No Play Store, sounds like no fun! Let's get this fixed! I would recommend trying the store in safe mode first. If that doesn't work a hard reset would be the next step. Here are the steps for both:
Safe Mode http://bit.ly/yAHjEJ
Hard Reset: http://bit.ly/xCo3Hk
Let us know if that works!

HTC Rhyme "Force close"

I have a HTC Rhyme, and constantly get into the screen/message of "Sorry! Activity HTC Sense (in application HTC Sense) is not responding. Force close; Wait". After I clicked "Force close", a white screen of "HTC" came up and the phone was frozen for a while before it came up again. Meanwhile, my Yahoo emails do not show up in notifications and only after I go into "Mail" to refresh did the new mails show up. This is getting really annoying. I even went into local VZW stores a couple of times to have it fixed, and it's still recurring. Any insight or tips to solve this? Is it unique to Rhyme?

Hello there Whe!
Oh no! Force closing messages are never fun on Android devices. This particular error message is definitely not unique to your phone, and I will be delighted to go over some options for you.
The force close error message generally implies that something has gone wrong with an application on your phone, so it needs to close. Generally you can repair this by uninstalling and reinstalling that particular application.
If you're getting an "HTC Sense" Force close this generally means something with the actual HTC operating system is failing. On many occasions this would mean a hard reset of your phone would need to be completed.
You would want to ensure all of your media is saved on your SD Card and that your contacts are backed up to either gmail or backup assistant. You would also visit www.google.com/play and log in with your gmail and click "My Android Apps" to reinstall your applications.
You can reset your phone by following these steps:
