2009 M3 Remote Key and Iphone 4

TexRacker · 09-27-2010, 10:01 AM

Just got my Iphone 4. Works just fine with Bluetooth but I have noticed that if my phone and remote key are in the same pocket it will not always start or it will be delayed. If I put my phone and key in different pockets it works fine.

I have Wireless and BT enabled on the phone. It did not do this with the Iphone 3gs.

Anyone else noticed any problems?

Thanks

This does happen with the m3.

You mean in general or with the Iphone 4 and M3? If in general then are they working on it?

I have an iPhone 4 and an '11 M3. Seems to work fine with both the phone and key in the same pocket. I always have BT, WiFi, 3G and location services on.

I have always tried to keep a pocketed phone away from other stuff in same pocket anyway, due to fear of scratching the screen. Even with screen savers on, you never know.

+1

Phone gets it's own pocket, everything else goes in another.

What ever happened here? I am having the same issue, iPhone 4 and keys in same pocket, comfort access won't lock, will unlock, but there's obviously an issue here.
