How To Make a Cell Phone Jammer Out of a TV Remote

This is a very easy and simple way to make a cellphone jammer.

[@lozgod]

I tried this and it did work. My cell phone was jammed because the TV kept getting louder and louder. I couldn't hear anything through the phone. Great success.

[@erikpayne8202]

lol

[@barryjimmy3125]

lmao

[@AxissXs]

you're awesome man! 😂😂😂

[@SirCavemaninthewest]

poassy😂😂

[@simonoutdoors8761]

lozgod you just made me laugh nice one 😂

[@mjyanimations1062]

Hot glueing single wires to random contacts. very clever. get this man an award.

[@BowersElectronics]

Having worked in manufacturing as a test technician I can tell you that an IR signal WILL NOT interfere with a phones signal strength. You need an RF signal to do so in the various bands that the phones use for occupation. pick up any $1-5 FM transmitter for your phone and this effect is seen although no music plays. This is because the FM signal is strong enough that it overwhelms the previous signal originally received. Hopefully this puts you in the right direction.

[@guitarman727]

So does it work or not? Thanks

[@redwoodcoastcalif]

I made one of those exactly as shown, powered it up, aimed it my neighbors house and it made the house disappear! Next attempt was to aim it at a cell phone. It turned the cell phone into jam! Amazing technology! KZbin is so helpful.

[@thexibn_abdullah9398]

[@Datsyukiandeke]

Raspberry?

[@meloman1551]

Its really worked?

[@ghostofdeletekey]

A practical (or even real) tutorial, this is NOT... but as prank comedy, this is GOLD! Kudos for making an electronics tech laugh his ass off :)

[@debbiefowler6903]

Good

[@chriswaller8780]

It's because of people like you that I have to correct people, on a daily basis, to prevent people from being misinformed.

[@ridingonrims9807]

and now I'm on a list.

[@The_Man734]

A list made be the FBI

@fetus suckingfaggot sounds like a karen

[@devilssongs530]

But i don't live on USA nor any western country

[@cjhoyle]

This video is a joke. Please don't attempt to build one at home. Anyone that knows anything about electronics will know that this will not work.

[@neonwolf4709]

yea i thought that ws the case ketchup doesnt help and a bettery doesnt work only just to give power duh. if im correct its a very strong electro magnetic pulse (im lurning abut electronics in colladge wish me luck please

[@thecentralscrutinizer5105]

yes, from the start. I was like, "No F'n way can this be a viable RF blockert, whole time listening to this moron, I kept thinking, WTF???

[@opgaming1417]

Oops bye bye tv remote lmao

[@IanGrodyRules]

I just woke my neighbours up from hysterical laughter watching this.

[@FracturedPixels]

To start with, I thought he was going to build an actual ECM device and put it inside the remote case, then when he said you might need a packet of ketchup, I just started laughing.

[@AstonishedByTheLackOfCake]

Wot, how thefuck does a Infra red light emmitting diode jamm a cellphone

[@m.t.carson1292]

Magic, maybe?

[@wesmatron]

I think should realise it's a joke by the time he includes ketchup in the mix.

[@RoadToTheCup]

wesmatron Ketchup yeah LOL!!!

[@thomasyates8561]

AwesomeProMasterDude TheMasterOfEverything If the pack of Ketchip didnt send up any red alerts to this being fake, then clearly youre NOT the masterofeverything. DUMBASS.

[@AstonishedByTheLackOfCake]

Thomas yates   I don't see why you are calling me a dumbarse, since i clearly expressed that this makes absolutely no sense and is completely illogical. Both infra-red radiation [the type of radiation emitted by television remotes to communicate with the television] and radio-waves [The type of radiation utilized to in cellphones and most other long range wireless communication devices such as ex: WiFi] are part of the electromagnetic spectrum, they oscillate at completely different frequencies and could not possibly interfere with each-other. I don't understand how you got the impression of that i thought that this would possibly work in any way, and it would be quite friendly of you to explain the logic behind thine reasoning. [Hopefully, this time, without the use of any pointless invective]

[@GIJew]

I knew by the title that this was fake because remote controls emit IR with a tiny LED, not RF, and even though some fancy remotes operate on RF, they operate at around 27 MHz, nowhere near 800/1900/2400 MHz which is what you would need to emit to jam cell phones.

[@GIJew]

Henry Black If you're willing to spend money, theoretically, you can buy an 800 MHz transmitter, and then attach a UHF 800MHz antenna to it, with the disguise of the remote, power it off of the 2 double A batteries (needs to be low power, effectively, low range and short battery life) and hook up a switch between the battery and the + terminal on the transmitter. Keep in mind this is illegal, this is all off the top of my head, I have not, would not, and will not do anything I have mentioned in this comment.

[@GIJew]

***** I clearly stated it doesn't work. Cell phones operate with RF, not IR. I explained how to make a real jammer.

[@topbullseye]

+Henry Black ya when i way this i was like what? because ir will not disrupt rf im glad at least someone other that myself was smart enough to be able to tell it was fake thank you

[@topbullseye]

+topbullseye p.s. a remote works on dc current not ac so hooking the battery up like that wont work

[@GIJew]

***** That battery is DC dude...

[@jeepcommando]

I followed all of the instructions from the video and it did work. I was in a meeting with several people in a large room and all of them started complaining about loss of cell in the room. It works!

[@jonathanspurlock4296]

#1 speaker wire wouldn't work. #2 he hooked the battery to the wrong prongs. #3 he didn't even press volume down to see if it turned off the effect #4 he used a most likely in active number. #5 an ir emitter wouldn't do anything to a cell signal or any radio wave for that matter

[@abhnovabhivk6527]

Correct 👍

[@stuffandjunkanduhh5049]

Anyone thats unknowingly connected the terminals of a battery and found out the hard way raise your youtube hand. Exploding batteries are a real shocker haha

[@pantherplatform]

The test phone is so old that it can't even call 911 lol

[@MrBugsbunny683]

HOLY CRAP!!!! it works. I used a pack of McDonalds ketchup (it works better and makes more distance) i used duct tape instead of hot glue. i used the channel up & down instead. I tried it at the movie theater when the girl in front of me was texting and her phone SHUT OFF!!!! I didn't think it would work. It DID!!!!!!!!!

[@tjbostian8585]

I can't figure out if you're stupid, or pretending to be stupid.

[@MrBugsbunny683]

I was just adding the STUPID idiot that mad the video. WE all know that it didn't work. Have to give the idiot his 2 seconds of fame

[@omsingharjit]

oooh !! when i turn on this , overhead flying plane jammed in mid sky

[@TBOMBDABAUM]

This is the story of why the fbi guy is watching me every day

[@feetachemail]

[@danniemikeey579]

The fact that this got 1.5m views just trolling lol. This man Is a genius

[@TheNimaid]

I can testify that ketchup will in fact fix any electronic device.

[@killer2600]

I don't know why people make BS tutorials, it's not entertaining, definitely not informative, and can be down right dangerous for someone that doesn't get the joke. Would you appreciate it if someone made a BS parachute packing video but didn't go overboard so unless you already knew how to pack a chute you couldn't tell that the video was complete BS? Anyway for those that don't know Jammers of any kind are illegal in the United States and Canada. Such devices infringe on payed for and licensed use of a frequency spectrum as well as interfere with emergency services that utilize wireless communication and systems. It wouldn't be so innocent if you were on a bus, had a medical emergency, and when others on the bus tried to call 911 they couldn't get through because someone else on the bus was operating an illegal jammer.

[@ArdyBlakleyProGeek]

Yup you can't walk around with a jammer on you in Texas. But it is legal to openly carry a firearm. :) Texan and proud. III%er

[@octaviogomez1639]

Fuck u man it worked like A FUCKEN "G"

[@billybassman21]

RD Bee There is no open carry in Texas. You have to have a concealed handgun permit unless its in your car and it too has to be concealed. The jammer laws is a federal law enforced by the FCC and not the state of Texas.

[@Mozarshton]

So IR jams the Cellphone Signal. WoW !! That's Amazing.

[@thereisalwaysarainbowafter1364]

Dear FBI, CIA, and “Law enforcement” I am watching this for educational purposes only.

Don't worry they're busy with other peeps

[@sleezybeatz]

Hot glue and Peanutbutter are excellent conductors of electricity. Lol

[@jakewood5943]

can this work as a time travel device because i need to travel back in time to kill my self beffpre i get chance to watch tge video

[@sanjaikv2851]

LMAO

[@marsseeker6208]

you really shouldn't teach the kids to connect positive and the negative of the battery together .

[@DeZStudios]

Mars Seeker I'm really glad at least one person here saw that. It made me cringe watching this. Especially when he tried explaining how the IR works. smh.

[@bobjeffersonjeffy7968]

why it will explode lol

[@DeZStudios]

haha wtf. You must be a dumb ass to be soliciting in KZbin comments.

[@Sbeagin1]

Mars Seeker Hey kids! Put all of the 9 volts you have at your disposal in series and touch either end! YAY!!!

[@72Yonatan]

+Mars Seeker - LOL.

[@anirbannaskar4296]

OMG!!! That works!! This not only jams Cell phone signals but also WIFI, bluetooth, FM, TV and traffic signals!! Thanks buddy!! :D

[@meloman1551]

Its really worked?

[@AlexandrosKiriakopoulos]

Is your house on fire? Is you dog dead? Is your phone in signal? HOT GLUE fix them all. Just two pieces of HOT Glue.

[@quenjankosky7348]

This guy is just, wow. Anyone in electrical engineering will know that you cant just attach a wire to "a side" of a Integrated Circuit.

[@kalphitekil]

+Quentin “SpecialBomb” Jankosky right? only electrical engineers would know because everyone else is dumb

[@quenjankosky7348]

kalphitekil Yeah, thank god for the internet too, because people can just look stuff up to prove this whole thing wrong.

[@kalphitekil]

Quentin Jankosky yeah thank god you don't have to go to school to learn anymore

[@Michael-ij6kg]

+Quentin “SpecialBomb” Jankosky It was the ketchup packet that blew me away. I stopped there and read some comments.

[@AndyPayne42]

I know this is a hoax, but if you want to do this for real you can use a software defined radio, find what Mhz the phone's communicating at, then just pump a lot of EM radiation at that Mhz, works for wifi too, cheers :)

[@AndyPayne42]

Huh? I'm talking about interrupting the phones ability to communicate not the tower...

[@shashikumar-ig5bt]

can u tell the whole process ...

[@AndyPayne42]

shashi kumar and what do you have to offer?

[@PimpMatt0]

Isn't it 5ghz or sometimes 2.4ghz? They have different channels.

[@AndyPayne42]

Explicit Tech What is it? Most phones will have bluetooth and wifi radios running 2.4ghz and a cell tower radio that runs in the 800mhz (sub ghz) range

[@randomvideowatcher]

He forgot the tinfoil hat and the space aliens.

[@dorothydale4683]

I used up all my hot glue. the length of the wires was not specified so I experimented. I could not understand how the thing got any power but I don't have much experience with dilithium crystal batteries. I fired it up and the tv volume went up. this guy is genius....so simple

[@smeghead2510]

U know I found this to be helpfull.:-) No bs. Thanks guy.

[@kylebrewerkb]

How far is the range frequency on this simple remote you call a cellphone jammer? Because if it has a very short range distances, then there's no point of having fun with it, much less of even building it. If I have to be right up on somebody's phone to jam their signal it might not go so well for me. Js :/

[@NyNySKZ]

i never thought about that

[@benf8018]

Not even relevant. That remote uses infrared light. "Overpowering" an infrared light emitting device won't do anything to a cell phone operating on radio frequencies. They're not even the same technology.

[@kylebrewerkb]

I know, but there is a theory about converting the electromagnetic waves, But this is nowhere near it. I'll give him points for creativity tho.

[@16BitTerror]

He said electronical. He knows what he's talking about.

[@jonathanbednarz1379]

Stop hating on this guy he's trying his best to make a video for the VIEWERS which he doesn't have to do at all!!! So thank him for trying his best and all the hate using necessary at all!!! If you don't like it that's your opinion and it's fine. But you don't have to drive it into the ground about how it doesn't work!!! Great video man! 👌👌😎

[@lukemorrison]

If you had a fully charged Li-ion and hooked it up like this it'd probably explode! Or the wire would burn up in an instant. hehe... Must have created some interesting expressions for anyone trying to make this device.. hehe

[@PurpleHelmetAvenger]

I use my I-Phone to control my TV. Can I wire my I-Phone the same way? I don't have a hot glue gun but I suppose some gum would work. I'll just duck tape it back together when I'm done. I'll slap a 9v battery in it for power..

[@omsingharjit]

When i was kid i was fooled by this video but now i can make real one

[@19.sciencetechnology30]

use a pair of tweezers to hold the wire against the chip before appling the hot glue on the wire. This will prevent you from burning your fingers. Also, you can take a binder clip, or small vice to hold the pc board to something, so that it doesnt flop around on the table as your trying to glue the wire to the chip.

[@coomcake]

Alright listen up, people. The wires are color coded but they all just have copper wire inside (the red wire he talked about). That's irrelevant because this will not work anyways. Connecting button locations to an IC chip does absolutely nothing. In fact, you'll find that the remote won't work at all until you remove that connection. Also... connecting a wire to both the negative and positive ends of the chip causes a short circuit.

[@4jess5]

OMFG IT WORKED AHAHAHAHAH JOKES ON YOU!!

[@4jess5]

NO LIE THIS SHIT WORKS :D

[@crunchyfrog555]

jesse douglass It cannot work. Cellphones do not work on infrared transmission. Remotes do not have the capability to transmit waves in MHz. If you can turn infrared tranmission into radio waves, then you're nothing but a barefaced liar.

[@Boldimore]

Daniel Linger Infrared transmission is practically the same as radio waves, just on another frequency... Both of them are Electromagnetic waves....

[@crunchyfrog555]

***** It doesn't change the fact that it cannot work though. Infra-red transmitting LEDs CANNOT somehow change their emissions to radio waves, and there is nothing else in the circuitry here that could possibly output enough power to transmit on such a level.

[@dickard8275]

omg!!! does your cellphone use infrared too?!?!

[@Jasshands1]

you can hear him turn his phone to airplane mode haha

[@Jlynn1077]

He is commanding the light waves around a cellphone. Infrared is at the opposite end of the rf spectrum. Also a 3.7v cellphone battery is no big deal vs 2AAs at 3.0v. Maybe he could use it as a PHaser exactly like the ones on star trek. Those worked awesome-- (It was TV Magic)

[@brandonkelly9879]

So what you are saying is that the opposite end of the RF spectrum would be LF spectrum or lower than 30 hz. Correct?

[@brandonkelly9879]

The first cell phone battery consist of 1.4 volts so .1 away from a 1AA battery

[@chickensfloat7427]

wow fake 1st step in makeing connections in electronics is soidering not hot glue and the way he wired it he would've shorted the circuit board

[@lozgod]

+Sam Stewart Exactly. Also overpowering a circuit board doesn't change the frequency band it's on. The reason the phone still had bars was because it was a phone that didn't have active service. When service is off it still has bars. Plus if it was a jammer it wouldn't of been able to connect to the provider.

[@ClashBluelight]

6:58 ok! with the blue wire i do "the exact opposite" of what i did with the red wire. "exact opposite" means nothing in common whatsoever! *ties blue wire to a water melon and sends it to space with a balloon* that didn't work. you lied to me! thumbs up for definition trolling lol!

[@jigsawtheiv8818]

One Funny thing is... the led wasnt even on.... i checked for it.. in the remote control u can see the led work through any camera since we cant see infra red but camera do and they render it. because of the Lithium battery i should have seen a spark of violet there and because of the fact i didnt that means the remote wasnt on. oh and its pretty stupid to try to scrumble radio frequency with infra red idiot.... wrong wave length... think it more through before you come with that statment....

[@brendethedev2858]

you idiot its not a led(light emiting diode) its a infred transmiter ...go and turn on you tv remote it doesn't flash ;technicaly it dose just not in a way humans can see. :p

[@4HUNNIDZ]

You got me at ketchup

[@vjweewee5798]

Yeah, that's great, it shut the landline too. Then, i caught all the pokémons. Super glue is faster for weld wires !

[@artblack01]

Ha ha, this won't work? An IR light won't affect a cell phone signal! HA HA!

I really like TV-B-Gone, that shit is awesome!

[@wbuttry1]

waste of my whole to minutes I watch this

[@stealerob3420]

Those wires that are in a headphone jack are coated so you need to burn or sand the end of the wire to get connected or for a good electrical connection. How else do you think you have free wires touching each other inside? One plastic Sleeve and they don’t short

[@petemcquade1995]

This guy is an absolute Genius!!! Wow I had to keep watching to see what he was going to do with the ketchup. Do you think maybe he should pay his cell phone bill? Unbeiliveable!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@khan8819]

MY FRIEND TOLD ME THERE ARE LOTS OF FOOL PEOPLE BUT I DID NOT BELIEVE BUT I WAS WRONG...YOU PROVE IT MY FRIEND....:)

[@JS-yj4rb]

This works really well if you want to increase the signal coat the inside of the remote with the Ketchup this keeps it from receiving other signals from other devices. And protects the wires from touching the other buttons on the board. :) hope this helped

[@FrederickDelarge]

I had a dentist once that kept saying 'Shit' and 'Christ' to himself as he worked on my teeth. Gave me a lovely warm feeling of confidence that did. Back to the present subject: I suggest you remake this video with the connecting wires cut to length and already stripped (anyone knows how that can be done) and the control unit's PCB, once removed, mounted into a table top vice or clamp for stability and ease of viewing! That hot glue gun instead of soldering iron is a new one on me though.
