Yeh.... you know what, not even gonna answer that! That statement can be answered if you bother to read this ludicrous string of threads from the beginning!!!

How about it all just leave it there and get off our soap boxes.

How far away from the car was the key when you done this?

I cant get it to work

(im assuming the phone gets held near the lock on the drivers door and not the passenger?)

Also, can all these randoms who have been here for like 5mins... cough**j4ckos_mate**cough pls stop making instant demands for thread locking on something that is actually quite interesting and also could help 99.9% of the members on here in a tight situtation.

Thanks,

Just FYI

Quality!! DCI cant help but "Quote" everybody's comment's and trying to humiliate them!

I can see this bitching will continue, no one will admit defeat - i did try to silence the thread with my "hands up" approach, but clearly was not enough for 'some'!

Oh and to add, i did not make this crap up myself, was just passing the crap on - blame the person who wrote it! Maybe we should have a poll on whether these work or not - some say they do!

That's 'try' to humiliate..... not 'trying' to.....

Well thank's a feckin lot.... you saw some 'crap' and 'passed it on'.... well that's just great, but maybe next time you'll check to make sure it's not SIAL and then post in the correct forum.......

And one drunken geordie claiming that his phone opens his car from 30 metres doesn't count as 'some say they do'........

Your great! (or is that grate?)

I have just ordered 'Word Perfect' by DCI Gene Hunt. The review's say that it will bore you to deathwith inconsequential comment's and will detail pages upon pages of example's where people with IQ's of below 140 have made these blatently obvious mistakes!

Should be a good read for bed time
