  • Hey Verizon / HTC / Google  Please fix the caller ID problem, post 2.2 Froyo UPDATE.

    Hey Verizon / HTC / Google  Please fix the caller ID problem, post 2.2 Froyo UPDATE.  This is a major Problem. 

    I have provided some steps below that may help with the Caller Id issue you are experiencing.
    Try completing a soft reset on the device. A soft reset would be powering the device off and pulling out the battery. Once the battery is removed, place it back in and power the device back on.
    Dial *228 and send. Once dialed, listen for the recording to prompt you for option 1 and select option 1. The phone should complete its programming within a minute.
    Ensure you are using the area-code and 7 digit number format (ex. 9999951212)
    Try removing the contact and re-adding it.

  • HTC HUB coming soon to Verizon HTC devices!

    I recently called Verizon and asked why HTC HUB was not installed on my Verizon HTC device, he said that because it was buggy on Verizon Devices they pulled it, but he also said it was coming soon to our devices, but he couldnt find an official release date, He also said it might be coming in the ICS update for Verizon devices.

    if I understand it correctly, the Harmon/Kardon version has the exact same hardware, but the software has a tweaked EQ. In my opinion, it isn't worth considering a separate SKU. If you want an M8, get an M8 now and don't wait for one with gimmicky software tweaks.

  • Verizon iPhone 5 Update Fixes Cellular Use on WiFi Bug

    If you have been seeing higher cellular data usage while you are on WiFi, good news, Verizon has fixed this bug.  All you need to do is update your Carrier Settings to 13.1 and the bug is fixed.
    For directions on how to update your Carrier Settings, see:
    Verizon iPhone 5 Update Fixes Cellular Data Use on WiFi Bug - EVDOinfo.com
    Be interesting to see if this fixes the issues for all those having the problem

    I have the exact same problem!
    I'm using the iPhone 5 now under Carrier M1 Singapore 13.0 and I have noted that over a period of 2 weeks, my cellular data usage has been about 2.7GB on an average. Since I know my bill has been capped at 3GB, I have since switched off my cellular data.
    However, when I switched it on for a few days after using it for awhile, my cellular usage jumped by 1.2GB in just 1 day! And I used it as I would on an average day (like during an average day in the 2 weeks)!
    I understand that there have been reports of a bug that have caused this problem in the US.

    http://www.iphonehacks.com/2012/10/iphone-5-cellular-data-usage-over-wifi-bug-on -other-carriers.html
    But I'm hoping that there's a solution for those living in Singapore? Do I seek the help from my carrier as well? But if it's a problem with the phone, then my carrier definitely would not help, right?

  • How about we lobby Verizon/HTC for a car dock that can accommodate the extended battery?!

    I had picked up my Thunderbolt on release day and a few days later opted to purchase an extended battery (Verizon/HTC brand 2750mAh).  Later in the week, I wanted to purchase the Thunderbolt specific car-dock only to find out that it will only fit the HTC Thunderbolts using the standard battery.  I am not about to swap out my battery every time I get into and out of my vehicle (which is often) and I will not give up the extended battery life.
    Hey Verizon?!  Since the stock battery's life is somewhat weak, and so many will end up purchasing an extended battery, how about you re-design a windshield mount, so that those of us with the larger capacity batteries can have a little automotive dock love?!
    Regards,
    Spence

    It doesn't need to be a seperate product so much s a re-design of the existing one with a cavity across the back.
    ProClipUSA markets phone holders with extended batteries in mind, and they even integrate the magnetic trigger to place the phone into "nav mode".  I guess I stick with the universal mount that I have ordered via eBay until ProClipUSA announces that their product is up for sale.

  • When will the Verizon HTC One (M8) finally get the Extreme Power Saving Mode software update?

    Other carriers (AT&T, Sprint) already have it, but Verizon is taking forever apparently.
    When will Verizon customers be able to download and use this new mode?
    Thanks!

    I recently bought an HTC One m8 from Verizon, and like many other customers the Extreme Power-saving Feature was one of my keys factors to deciding to buy. I was very disappointed to learn after the fact that Verizon had not included, and has no intention to include the feature in the future. (Mentioned in other threads in the forum). I've read the argument made that Verizon never advertised the feature and never said it would be included with their version of the phone, but they also never went out of the way to warn perspective buyers that the feature, which is part of the m8 phone on other carriers and marketed by HTC as a part of their phone wouldn't be included. When people are researching phones before they decide what to get they read what features the manufacturer(s) have designed and implemented in those phones, not search to find all the things the carrier may have stripped from the phone.
    It's impractical and offensive to tell a customer that its his/her responsibility every time they buy a phone from them to dig deep into website forums and look for what they decided to remove from it that the manufacturer had built, and advertised to be in their phone. This is the type of thing that is bad PR for Verizon, and something that will make customers go to other carriers. I don't want to offend some of the nice Verizon employees who want to  help their customers and simply don't have the power to correct the issue themselves, but its in Verizon's best interest to either fix their network to work with this feature, or find/hire someone else who will. Doing it soon before the issue escalates and news of Verizon's statement to do nothing to correct the issue for their HTC One m8 customers spreads like wildfire and burns them.
    I hope someone at Verizon doesn't let the rest of the company go on ignoring the issue and steps up to find a  way to enable Extreme Power Saving Mode on the Verizon Network. Right now the impression many people have is something along the lines of: now that you've bought a phone from us, and signed up for a contract with us we don't care what you want and think.
    In the meantime it would be a good idea to enable the option in the phone with a popup message when enabled that reads something along the lines of: Verizon has concluded that in some cases Extreme Power Saving Mode can cause network issues. If you experience network issues please disable extreme power saving mode and return to one of the  other power modes. Verizon will continue to research the issue, and will institute a fix if/when a solution is found.

  • You suck verizon & HTC

    In so many ways verizon and HTC are being corporate monsters who don't care to tick off its customers any longer, and this needs to end. I hope everybody will read this and help towards stopping verizons corrupt practices, please post your horror stories and maybe verizon will attempt to satisfy its customers for once.
    Verizon went from making sure a customer was happy 2-3 years ago to do everything they can to screw the customer over out of money, this has to stop!FAIL

    You have a brand new device on a brand new network, minor problems are going to happen..
    Have you tried to bump charge the battery? turn off wifi/bluetooth, change screen brightness off. Download juice defender and set up a proper profile.
    HTC put the same battery in this phone as the incredible, maybe go troll their forums..
    If the charging port is bad you can take it to the store and replace it, there has to be something you are leaving out of that story.
    Of course you get charged for an extended battery, it is an accessory's
    If you return the thunderbolt you get charged a restocking fee, if your replace it you wont.
    Skypeisn't out yet, but tango works just as well
    Pushed a month for battery life and lte network, nothing to do with apple..

  • Verizon htc 8x with ntt docomo sim

    I am using htc 8x by sim of ntt docomo.
    I can perform dispatch and arrival of a telephone normally.
    If the web page is seen by Internet Explorer,
    I am no longer displayed suddenly.
    I can display, if a power supply is reswitched on.
    Those who are using the employee limited model of verizon by sim of ntt docomo,
    It is said that I could use it normally when renewal of a telephone was performed the other day.
    Is there any update which corrects this fault?

        @alphonsezero,
    I definitely want you to be able to use your phone properly and I'm here to help.
    However, I'm not sure what your question or concern is. Please clarify so I can further assist. Are you having issues with the Internet on the phone?

  • Buying a contract free phone from Verizon (HTC DROID DNA)

    Hi,
    I apologize if this is the wrong place to post this, but I cannot find answer to this question. I live in Europe (Croatia) but in a month I'l visit NYC. While I'm there my plan was to buy HTC DROID DNA from Verizon as a contract free phone. As it is a Global Network phone will it work with my own network carrier and sim card back in Europe?
    Thanks in advance

    The DNA will work on the following GSM/UMTS network frequencies (per the DNA info page), if your carrier uses one of these you should be good.
    Global Network: GSM (850MHz, 900MHz, 1800MHz, 1900MHz), UMTS (850MHz,
    900MHz, 1900MHz, 2100MHz)
    Good luck.

  • Would the Unlocked Verizon HTC One M8 work with GSM Bands globally/?

    If i buy a HTC One M8 phone and then pay all the installments and finally get the unlocking code. One phone is unlocked, then is is possible that CDMA Sim Card of Verizon be replaced with a SIM card of any GSM operator globally

    as of last year all Verizon phones are unlocked of course if they were manufactured  starting last year. the HTC one m8 is sold unlocked however it may not work on all LTE bands Verizon operates on 1700F and 700C

  • When is Verizon going to update their technology?

    Has anyone else noticed that Verizon hasnt updated their technology to match either Dish or Direct TV?  I dont know about you but 500gb DVR is not getting the job done for me anymore not with HD recordings a couple of sports events and its filled.  With most people not watching live TV anymore and choosing to record everything to skip commercials and long intros plus end of commercial updates these days my DVR is straining to stay under 100% capacity.  I have used DISH's new Hopper system and love it recording 8 different channels in prime time is real effective because with only two tuners in the FIOS system I often have to make a decision what to watch and what to get off the internet.  In these days the technology exists so that I dont have to download content from the internet I should be able to get it right off my DVR.  One solution would be to store all primetime shows in the video on demand so it would not have to be recorded through the DVR this would save Verizon a ton of money having to update all the DVRs to newer technology.  
      When Verizon went to a system that required users to buy their own Hard Drives to increase storage size I knew right away that would fail, shifting the cost from Verizon to the home user was a very poor excuse for not wanting to spend the money to update the equipment.  I dont know why verizon doesnt use the internet for storage and live updates of its scheduling, Verizon has always had a problem with its TV guide system not being up to date especially with live programming many times the end of the game is lost because it ran too long for the DVR guide system to handle.  Of course the fix is to just record the next show right after the game so you get the overtime or overage but this is a poor way of handling it when its not necessary.  Wake up Verizon or watch the competition eat you up!

    I dont know about Directv, but DIsh's DVR give you much less space then stated because much of it is reserved for their use.
    Still Verizon has been showing some new technology planned for the next models, but full specs or time frames are not nailed down.

  • Verizon Jelly Bean update causing multiple texts?

    Yesterday I updated to the lastest Jelly Bean from Verizon (OTA, finally got it after hours of clearing data, etc.) but now, for some reason I keep receiving multiple text from people. They would send it, but then i'd get it 2 or 3 times. Just wondering if its possible when I downloaded the update something when wrong and they system didn't realize it.

        Hi there Drake90001,
    Getting the most recent software update is super exciting and I definitely want your phone to run smoothly. I will be delighted to provide some suggestions.
    As with any software update in our world of technology, anything can happen. I would have to say yes it is possible.  It may also be due to third party applications not being updated to function with the new software yet.
    Are you using the native messaging application or something else?
    Are you noticing it with anyone who messages you or is it only select numbers? 
    Have you noticed it happening only when you're in certain locations?
    Keep us updated!
