Can I get rid of browser as main button on 401g?

by XME
(Roanoke, VA)




I just got the 401g and really like it as I was upgrading from the VERY basic Nokia 1600. However, I hate that the browser is connected from the main screen as I have accidentally clicked the browser button more than once, and as soon as I do, I lose a whole minute. Is there a way to lock the browser that I've not found, or remove the access from the main screen buttons?

I am annoyed by the browser key location too, but I was not able to find a way to switch it to something different.

Lock the Keypad to disable accidental browser launching ..

Just press and hold the * key ( lower left corner ) for a few seconds till you see the "Locked" message on screen. Now the keypad is locked and pressing the "Browser" soft key won't launch the browser.

You can't

XME,

Thanks for your questions. Unfortunately, I haven't found a way to do it. It is somewhat annoying because that same key has other functions for other tasks which can sometimes cause a mixup.

I think it did happen a couple of time when I first got the phone. After that, I learned to avoid it.

Regards.
