Can doors auto unlock?

Is there a way to have doors unlock upon shifting into park or engaging the ebrake? I can set the doors to auto lock upon drive but not the opposite. Any help appreciated. thx.

I'd say no.

You could disable the auto lock, that way they will be unlocked all the time and you wont need to pull the handle twice to open the door.

This is a safety feature, really. Emergency brake (= ebrake) can be used when the car is still in motion; nor do you want the doors to auto unlock when your car comes to a stop just to be jumped by a mob of thugs prepared to rob you and your passengers. The only thing BMW overlooked here is having to pull the inside handle twice - one pull should be enough to open the door even if the "pin" is down.
