I have a c902 on O2 and the top right "selection button" is preset for the internet. As a result, I am forever pressing it by mistake and it keeps connecting me to the internet.

Is there a way of changing this to something else. I have been able to on other phone, but I cnat see where you would do this on the C902.

Any ideas?

Thanks [addsig]

a lot of newer SE's don't have the ability to change the soft keys.
The c902 is one - the only way to "fix" your problem would be to
de-brand it, as the generic SE firmware has top left = media and
top right = contacts .

you could change the APN of the internet settings in use to something
invalid .... say .old instead of .com - that would cause the pressing of
the internet button to give you a "connection failure" ??

I think it is a possible to change or turn off that internet button. On the source code, i think the statements to be executed on that button event can be deleted or changed. Do you get the idea guys? Sort of VB programming concept. You know anything is possible because everything on the cellphones are programmed. You just need the right tool to modify the source code like an editor. For xml, notepad++ is the easiest to use i think. Hehe.

What is A2 Uploader? It's used for what? Is it like XS++?
