Have you had the wheel rebalanced? Also, you could swap it to the rear of the car. If the vibration goes to the back, it's a problem with the wheel/tire. If it stays, you have a suspension issue.

If it's the wheel/tire, check for a bend in the wheel, abnormal wear on the tire, proper tire pressure, and evidence of missing weights. Rebalance the wheel and if that doesn't do it, you'll need a new tire, possibly a new wheel if it's damaged.

this phone is not an iphone... it isn't very mac like...
You can change the ringtone and the vib... I spent alot of time, but it can be done...

it's in the settings menu... Touch/vib.. on or off...
for ringtones,
go to "Phonebook" menu and select "Caller Ring tone"

There's a list of tones there. be sure to click ok before leaving the menu...

1. Menu -> "Settings"
2. "Audio & Ringtones"
3. "Alert Types"
4. "Ringtones"
5. "Ring & Vibration"

Well, glad its working. Interestingly under profiles, I don't have an advanced settings and it seems like what I setup applies globally. Looks like your configuration might be different.

Sure! Follow these steps.
1) from the HOME screen push MENU

2) push the RIGHT SOFTKEY two times to bring you to the "Settings & Tools" menu.

3)push 4 for "Sound Settings"

4)push 2 for "Alert Sounds"

5) push 1 for "TXT Message"

6) push 2 for "Vibrate"

7) Choose "ON" and push "OK"

8) "CLR" your way back to the "HOME" page

Hope I helped!

have the firmware reflash

Hi, your vib motor probably has dirt or stray hair so its not spinning, or it has just seized.
Simply bring to a local repair shop for a cleaning - about $15, if thats no good have them replace the vibe motor, cost is about $25-40 including install.

If you can't find a shop to do it let me know, we do those all the time
