Disable web 'n' walk

I've got a Nokia 2330 with T-Mobile pay as you go, and I'm trying to find a way of disabling the "w'n'w" feature - or at least the shortcut for it on the top right button on the main screen.
I saw a similar question (with no solution) on another thread, and someone remarked that it was strange to buy a web-enabled phone and then want to disable the web. The reality is that it's hard to buy a phone these days without web capabilities. Personally I never use the web on my phone, and it seems to be terrible design to put the option to connect right where the "Exit" option is for most screens. Too often I find myself pressing the top right button repeatedly to escape out of nested menus, only to accidentally press that button when the main screen is back - triggering a request to connect to the web.
Is there any way of disabling this?

You may want to check in the forums at Nokia Europe. We don't have web 'n walk in the US, which is where you are posting, and since that is a service offering rather than a link.. This is the same answer I gave you over at T-Mobile USA, by the way, web 'n walk is an exclusively EU product.

  • Tmobile web n walk manager wont start

    hi.
    first of all,i have to excuse myself for my bad english,i am from austria so englsih isnt my native language.
    my girlfriend bought a macbook air a while ago and she says she didnt updatet the os since then,if its important to know.
    so,she got an usb data modem to connect to the internet,namely this one:
    http://tmobile.at/privat/servicehilfe/Download_Center/SoftwareDownloads/index.html
    its the web and walk compact
    i then told her (shes now working 800 km away,so all comunication about this problem with her is about phone) that she shall "install" the software provited on this page for the mac, the intel version since the mac air is based on an intel chipset afaik.
    (and i must say i know nothing about macs! i didnt have to,because i dont have one. she sayed she wants one because of the design...women...gosh..i know its stupid..but now its done)
    so,first it all worked out.
    the programm starts,she could connect to the internet, all is fine.
    then,she wanted to send an sms via the programm,this option is providet by the software.
    as soon as she hit the sms button the programm crashed and was gone.
    she tryied to restart it but it want start anymore.
    what we have tried is to find the plist file coresponding to the application name,something like com.stefan...MM0_23.plist in the library inside the preferences.
    so far she found it and copyed it on the desktop so its out of the library.
    well,didnt worked out,the app is still not starting.
    the error message was something like
    parent process launched 118 (the number at the end is changing?)
    so,she is a dau,so am i.
    i really know that someone should know about there os but well....its so beautifull.....i swear to god...and the fact that shes 800 km awawy doesnt help either and she cant send me the complete error message via mail because she cant get in the internet
    what i am asking for,no,begging for is that someone could please post a dau friendly solution.
    maybe even download the dmg file and look where the plist file or files are located so we can find them..well that means if that is the problem.
    another idea of me is that she could try to make another account and log in with that and try it from there..would that help?
    i really hope someone could help me out there...
    dude,i would buy u a beer...
    thanks in advance

    its the e220 im realy sure about that
    ok,thanks for the info,in about3-4 hours i will know more because then her work day ends
    and afaik is the macbook air based on an intel chipset,so we wil use the intel installer.
    thanks for all the help,i really hope it will work out
    edit:
    ok,one more stupid question
    what exactly is the apn?
    what do i need to know for that?
    her provider is tmobile austria,can i find the infos on there homepage?
    thanks

  • "Web'n'Walk III" Huawei dongle, how to find out what Huawei model it is?

    I just bought this "web 'n' walk III" UMTS Modem (USB) made by Huawei. I want to instal it but do not know if the enclosed software is out of date (MobileConnectDriver(2.9.2)) and works under SL. Does anybody know how I find out what type of Huawei dangle it is so I can find the correct software?
    any tips as to how to use this smoothly as the stick is to SIM locked and I will use it with a SIM from an other provider (Stick is branded by T-Mobile).

    I worked out the model number, it is 'hidden' in small print on the back, in a larger number.

  • How to disable web security in firefox

    Please let us know how to disable web security in mozilla firefox .
    I tried re-setting the below :
    security.fileuri.strict_origin_policy;true
    network.http.referer.XOriginPolicy
    but its not working.
    Whereas in chrome we have the below option to set websecurity :
    chromium-browser --disable-web-security
    Please advice.

    Hi,
    I understand that you would like to know how to disable web security in Firefox and you have tried: security.fileuri.strict_origin_policy;true and network.http.referer.XOriginPolicy. These are cross domain single origin policy that refers to a specific header int HTTP.
    The chromium-browser --disable-web-security essentially does the same thing. (Ideally) It seems from a couple of sources that this does not actually disable Cors as well? Hence (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1039678)
    Please do report back with what you find!
    EDit: It sounds like the feature you are looking for has not been implemented yet.

  • Disabling web browsing and Wifi Itunes music store

    We're thinking of getting a iPod touch for the kids for xmas and I'm wondering if there is a way to disable web browsing and iTunes wifi access, since I understand there are no parental controls available on the touch. Thanks

    yes there is no way to disable this icons, and the only way to do this is to put a password on your wireless router settings, this way they don't know the password and that they can not access the safari, youtube, and the wi-fi itunes music store.

  • Internet on blackberry curve 8520 web n walk not working!

    I just added on unlimited interent to my t-mobile plan and the web'n'walk application is not letting me accessthe internet. It shows up on my plan that the internet has been added on.
    I get a message saying : Unable to connect to the internet, please try again later. If the problem persists please contact your service provider.
    I've already re-booted it but still get the same message.

    Hi
    Do what it says. Check with your service provider. Does the unlimited allowance include the BB service? Ask them whilst you check with them. Generic plans don't include BIS.
