Many of us are pretty dissatisfied with RIM’s choice to leave out a “vibe and ring” option in the BlackBerry OS. Fabian Heuwieser, the maker of popular applications like Email Display On and SMS Display On brings us VibAndRing, an application designed to fill this gap.

VibAndRing does exactly that: makes your BlackBerry vibrate and ring at the same time, whenever you receive an incoming call.

    @Jason. True but it doesn’t vibe and ring at the same time. It vibes a few times, then it rings. It’s a preference app, for some people the whole vibe and then ring can be annoying, haha!

    why does RIM not do this by default allow more options in the vibrate menu. I was 3 quick vibs when i get and email 2 quick when its a SMS 1 long 2 shorts for phone call. why does no one else see this as a need for their phone. why listen to annoying sounds when you can tell by the vibration.

    I’ve been waiting for this forever now! Imagine being in a crowded room with lots of noise. You have your phone on Vibrate THEN Ring because you won’t be able to hear the ringer. You then sit down at a table and take the phone out and place it on the table. It would be nice if it would VIBE (shake the table) and RING so I can hear it.

    Sure you can configure in holster & out of holster but its sometimes the vibrating that gets someones attention while its on the table.
