Goddamnit if I don't get annoyed with the stupid web button on the Sony Ericsson K810i. Every time I take my phone out of my pocket, it's magically unlocked itself and happily sits on the internet due to the fucking dumb web button on the left hand side of the front of the phone.
There's no way to change the functions of these buttons, and you can't disable the button itself, so I thought a cunning way would be to make an internet profile that points to nowhere. So, the phone would just say it isn't able to connect using the profile, and when I do want to use the internet (very rarely I might add), I can just select one of the working GPRS profiles.
So, under the Connectivity Settings menu, go to Internet Settings, then Internet Profiles. Create a new profile, named anything you like, and then it'll ask you which Data account you wish to use for the profile. Make another blank data account with no APN, Username, Password etc settings. Use this dummy account for your dummy profile.
Woot! No more internet going off in your pocket! And you can always simply change your internet profile back when you do want to use the net.
