Hi, all
The internet access key of my son's K550i mobile keeps incidently pressed while in his pocket therefore costing me money. We tried auto lock key pad, however, didn't brilliantly work!
Any chance i can cancel/change the function of this key (big semicircular key on the left hand side of the handset)?!
Thanks
A

I dont think you can. The only way is to flash it to Walkman firmware. That will replace the internet function with music player.
Correct me if i'm wrong.

I don't know if I'm misunderstanding but shouldn't the automatic keylock take care of that, that is, lock all the keys so they don't get depressed accidentally?

EMS06, yes, auto lock should do the trick, BUT, what happens is he put it in his pocket and incidently pressed the button before the auto lock is activated. Also the auto lock will not work if you are not on the the main screen!!

Was gonna say that as well. Seems the mobile is branded to your operator. So you could do as the post above you or you can debrand it(if it is).

I told my son today about changing the home page to a free website but he said he is a Tmobile pay as you go and his understanding is T mobile PAYG has no free website...! Is this correct? if so, i would need more idea about changing the function of the key...
QVGA, i am still waiting for your advice about how to replace the internet function with a music player.....

Hi
If you want the walkman player in the phone it is necessary that you flash the phone. Now, if you want to get rid of the tmobile branding you must flash it with a generic firmware.
