That is ridiculous.  At this point I'm ready to try and build some kind of app that can block the noise (I'm in software, but not a WP developer), it is really aggravating.

I'm most definitely NOT a VZW employee. If a post answered your question, please mark it as the answer.

Hey Mer2780, I absolutely don't want you to be annoyed with your phone, especially since you use it every day. Your ultimate satisfaction is important to us and I absolutely want to take a further look into this three beep tone for you.

After further review this is a known issue with the HTC 8X.  It is under review by HTC and the issue will be addressed with the next software update.  Visit http://vz.to/n5snpq for the latest news on software updates and other device offerings.

Is there a fix for this issue (i.e. missed call tone when phone is in silent mode).  I just bought two of these phone and have a bunch of problems with the latest being this annoying issue which is causing my wife all kinds of grief at work.  Of course when the first problems occurred, I was just outside the " worry free guarantee" period and was essentially told tough luck.  Verizon is surprisingly not very focused on the issue with this phone.

I have had this phone for three months and had this issue the whole time.  Searched Verizon and Windows forums and found the same thing.  Only Verizon HTC 8X having this issue.  On top of that I am now having hardware issues.  Phone SIM not showing up as connected and have to restart or re-seat the SIM.  Battery life has gone down drastically.  Overnight charge gets me 11 hours tops without using my Data plan with WIFI off and other major apps closed out.  Shouldn't have to do that to utilize features on a smart phone.  As soon as I begin using my data plan the 11 hours is cut in half.  Not to mention if I use the phone for GPS navigation it gets drained in 30 minutes to and hour.  Then the software is now freezing.  Either freezes completly and have to restart or applications i try to open, stall and then go  back to the start menu.  I have to then power off the phone which freezes and 15 minutes later powers off.  3 months into the phones contract.  Ridiculous.  Bought from Letstalk.com and they told me I am SOL.  14 days for return and 30 for exchange.  Go see HTC.  HTC says i'm SOL.  Go to Verizon and get a new SIM.  Factory Reset the device as  well.  If that doesn't help, ship it to us and we will repair.  Are you kidding.  I am a consultant for a major merger and acquisition company that deals with infrastructure practices all day.  Send you my phone for repair on a 3 month old phone.  Are you kidding me.  Finally talked to Verizon.  They are not consciously aware of the HTC 8x missed call three beep scenario when it has been on there forums since February of this year.  With all my issues they told me I'm SOL.  I am furious with this and want to proceed with making sure this lack of decent service for an issue like this is resolved and others don't have to face this type of treatment.  I paid good money for a smartphone with reliable service.  So far i'm being told to bend over and take it from everyone.  I feel that the three beep issue alone is a breach of the contract I have with Verizon and I should be able to constitute that right and terminate this disease.

This did not work for me as well.
