I Have Lg Vx 6100 I Want Phone To Honk Horn In My Pickup When It Rings -- deoff Maybe while you're at it you can get it to brush your teeth, shave your face, comb your hair, and tie your tie while you are behind the wheel. > I Have Lg Vx 6100 I Want Phone To Honk Horn In My Pickup When It Rings. > Maybe while you're at it you can get it to brush your teeth, shave your > face, comb your hair, and tie your tie while you are behind the wheel. Was there some reason you left out "trim nose hairs" ?? <<<---{ LOL }--->>> >> I Have Lg Vx 6100 I Want Phone To Honk Horn In My Pickup When It Rings. Alright, now you're just going way too far. A phone could never, ever do that. Not in a million, gazillion, bagillion years. :-P >> Maybe while you're at it you can get it to brush your teeth, shave your >> face, comb your hair, and tie your tie while you are behind the wheel.

But, it was activated only when green wire (ignition source) didn't have 12V on it to prevent honking while driving. There even may have been a keyed in activation if I remember. Installed car kits (Moto anyway) have a radio mute feature that involves pulling a line low for the duration of the ring cycle/call. This, with a bit of engineering could be used to honk a horn. But, it would honk the horn in a steady blast, whenever the phone rang, or was in use. It would take further engineering to devise a way to interrupt it and avoid it blasting the horn while driving. I would say that anything can be done with enough effort, but the practical answer is.... NO > I Have Lg Vx 6100 I Want Phone To Honk Horn In My Pickup When It Rings. > I Have Lg Vx 6100 I Want Phone To Honk Horn In My Pickup When It Rings. Why? Notan Without being a smartass, I'd like to know why also. The only reason I could think of is a scenario where: You spend a lot of time in a place where you're NOT allowed to have a cell phone on you, but you ARE in hearing range of your horn. You're also allowed to leave the place to go to your truck to use the phone to retrieve the call info. Of course in this case you'd never get to the phone in time to actually ANSWER a call. ----OR----- You normally spend a lot of time where the noise level is so high that you can't hear the phone ringer. Obviously in this case you are outside the truck and would have to return there to try to answer the call in time. Neither case seems all that practical. Rather than go to all to trouble of trying to rig this up, get an old-fashioned pager and forward your cellphone calls to that number.

Install a loud PA system in the truck and have it always on with the microphone keyed. Set your mobile phone down by the microphone. If it absolutely has to honk the horn, record your own MP3 of a honking horn and use that as your ringtone. :) Only downside is this system would drain the truck battery fast. -Dave >> I Have Lg Vx 6100 I Want Phone To Honk Horn In My Pickup When It Rings. > [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] >use that as your ringtone. :) Only downside is this system would drain the >truck battery fast. -Dave Put a sound-activated microphone on the PA. In the late '80s, I put a new roof on my house. One day, I wanted to hear the end of a ball game on the radio, but I needed to get to work on the roof and I didn't have a battery-powered radio to take up there with me. My solution: I put the radio on its sleep timer (there was less than an hour left in the game), set my 49Mhz short-range headset on top of the radio with its mic set to VOX, and carried my scanner up to the roof, set to the freq of the headset. Worked like a charm. I clearly heard the rest of the game, the radio shut off, the headset stopped transmitting (and draining its battery), and I went on hammering shingles (happily -- my team won).

We still don't know the OP's reason for wanting this. Is it to be used at home, at work, etc? I can seem all kinds of problems, as far as disturbing the peace. Notan Don't bother. It will be for your sister and wife from her crack whore friends telling her she left her pipe at the corner. deoff <deoff.20m2gd@cellbanter.com> spewed: > I Have Lg Vx 6100 I Want Phone To Honk Horn In My Pickup When It > Rings. I think I'd develop a switch device that required little pressure to activate the horn, then set the phone slightly above it on a ledge... set the phone to vibrate, you get a call, the phone vibrates off the ledge, falls onto the switch... *HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONK* til you got to your truck to pick up your phone. :-) SignatureThe Toe Pages: http://www.rubbertoe.com Who but a moron still says, "honk?" > Who but a moron still says, "honk?"
