I followed the instructions on hex editing and enabling this feature. My issue is understanding/using it. The search function wasn't helping me, so I resorted to posting here. This feature makes my phone ring and vibrate at the same time, right? That's what I'm wanting. Anyway, any help is appreciated.

I am not sure of that hack. If you did enabled it, what difference you experience with the phone if any? Does it vib/ring at the same time?
It has been suggested in the past that moto phones aren't capable of such feature like the Nokia's can.

Maybe, after I think about it, this is just a hack that P2KTools does on other phones, and not my v551, I'll have to check my resources when I get back to my home console, but for what it counts, I can get P2KTools to think it's changing something.
I don't have my bookmarks at this console, so I can't say exactly what my resource said, but I'm 99% sure it did not go into detail as to what this feature does, just that I can turn it on... I think. Anyway, after I enable this feature, I have nothing that resembles "Vibe Sync" anywhere on my phone, nor does any action that could be reasonably labeled as such take place. I was under the impression this would cause my phone to ring/vibe at the same time, but if it's true my motorola does not have such capabilities, I suppose I will have to live with it.
Duceduc, you say your phone is Hexed like there's no tomorrow or what-have-you, can you suggest any hexes that I should do. I have links to the various different things I can do, I just was hoping for suggestions, rather than wading through all the options I may or may not want.

What I did to my phone was customize it to my liking. It is nothing fancy or crazy if you don't think by editing your phone's seem file is crazy enough.
I don't remember all the things I did but some are:
change the outer screen text to read Gizmo
Change my startup/shutdown anime to winxp
Deleted the main display cingular logo
Delete the date
Other small little ignoring things that you may find as well.

Most of the codes I found here.

Just got home... Those links are helpful, that's where I got the mods I've already done (including this vibe sync hack). I tried it again tonight when I got home, and this is my final analysis:
The hack in question is from the first URL link in the above post. It's in seem 0032_001, the line from the hackmap reads as follows:
offset 68 - bit 0: Settings > Initial Setup > Vibe Sync (1 on, 0 off)
I went ahead and did this, several times before I bothered to check in my phone's initial setup. So tonight I checked, it was there, so I set it active. To test it, I called my cell from my house. My house phone rang until my cell phone voicemail picked up, but my cell phone neither made a peep, nor did it indicate I was receiving a call. After disabling this option in my initial setup, my phone returned to normal.
I haven't been into this long enough to understand why it does that, but for my level of skill it means that I can't do it, so I'm not attempting it. I'm interested to know if it's possible though.
BTW duceduc, I did quite a bit of those changes to my phone myself (my Display says "Prhyme" though for obvious reasons)

I didn't know that your name was from The Transformers. That was my favorite show. I have season 1 & 2 of the tv series.

Wow, I edited my message like five times cuz I didn't know what to say, but you still caught the aside that I took out.
I have a problem with getting wordy, than I think people won't read the lengthy posts (<-see, I can't help it). Anyway, I just figured as I stumble through these things I'd share my findings; that way maybe someone more talented can pick it up, figure it out, than share their findings. Ah, the beauty of information exchange.

With the exception of my grammar (i.e. word choice)
