i have a 2011 silverado and it came with the trial period of on star. Its very expensive to renew and the only reason i want to renew it is because of the remote start on my phone. Just wondering if anyone has it without using on star?

There is a topic in here somewhere where they list the companies that have remote starters that use smartphones

Yeah, it suck a$$. I was showing it off to my friends. It didn't work because of the poor phone signal in that area. That was the on-star app. Alpine Smart Start did the same thing too. So it's basically your phone carrier. If you have crappy AT&T like I do, then you might have the same problems.

It's definitely convenient to have but yeah, the monthly subscription isn't cheap.

has anyone heard anything about the viper one? The subscription is much! Lower

Viper Smart Start had improved since it was release a few years ago. When I first had mine, I kept getting Server Unavail error messages. Probably with AT&T's shitty service had a lot to do with it. What I didn't like most was the lag I sometimes had when sending a command to my car. I have the 5702 viper alarm system now with remote start.

How do you like it?

ooohhdave · by **ooohhdave** » Feb 05 2012, 8:56pm

I like it a lot. It's 10 times more convenient then the phone. Situations like when it's raining outside, I don't have to pull out the phone and find tha app and stuff. I can just reach in my pocket without removing the key fob start or unlock my car.
