well, infact ,

WebView.getSettings().setBuiltInZoomControls (false); (<11)

and

myWebView.getSettings().setDisplayZoomControls(false);

shared same code

 /**
 * Sets whether the zoom mechanism built into WebView is used.
 */
public void setBuiltInZoomControls(boolean enabled) {
    mBuiltInZoomControls = enabled;
    mWebView.updateMultiTouchSupport(mContext);
}



 /**
 * Sets whether the on screen zoom buttons are used.
 * A combination of built in zoom controls enabled
 * and on screen zoom controls disabled allows for pinch to zoom
 * to work without the on screen controls
 */
public void setDisplayZoomControls(boolean enabled) {
    mDisplayZoomControls = enabled;
    mWebView.updateMultiTouchSupport(mContext);
}

just have different names

You should use WebSettings and set setDisplayZoomControls to false. This will allow the user to still use the pinch to zoom but the controls will not be displayed.

    myWebView.getSettings().setDisplayZoomControls(false);

WebView.getSettings().setBuiltInZoomControls (false);

Is what you're looking for I think.
