Resetting HTC Rhyme

Do a factory reset to return HTC Rhyme to its original state before the first time you
turned it on.
If you're passing HTC Rhyme on to someone else or HTC Rhyme has a persistent
problem that cannot be solved, you can perform a factory reset (also called a hard
reset). Factory reset is not a step to be taken lightly. It'll permanently delete all your
data and customized settings, and will remove any applications you've downloaded
and installed. Be sure to back up any data and files you want to keep before you do a
factory reset.

1. From the Home screen, press
2. Tap Storage > Factory data reset.
