Anyone who has used a BlackBerry before will know that one of the fundamental short comings of these devices is that you cannot get them to vibrate and ring consecutively, rather it will vibrate then ring, just vibrate or just ring. This can be quite frustrating.  There are a couple different applications that can fill this gap but one I can personally recommend is BuzzMe by Big Tin Can.

I’ve tried a couple of different applications to fill this void but BuzzMe offers a few little extras.  The first is Call vibration length, as the name suggests you can set it to 1, 5 or 10 seconds or until your device stops ringing.  It has alert during call, Call LED flashing with the ability to change the call alert LED colour.  The LED call alert feature is pretty cool, you can make it flash Blue, Green, Red, Yellow or my favorite Disco.

There are 2 different versions of this application, 1 is for the Storm 95xx and the other is for devices with a keyboard.  To download this application open the appropriate link below with your BlackBerry Browser or copy it into an email to your device.
