How can I move these bookmarks into the the default browser?? Is there an app that might be able to do such a move? I have a folder of bookmarks exported from the iphone (synced with IE) into Google Chrome. Now, how can I get these bookmarks from Google's own browser into their mobile browser?
Thanks for any ideas...
Dolphin had sync with google bookmarks briefly but it didn't work properly. I wonder I'd there is a way?

Couldn't you just export your bookmarks to html file, put it on sd card, and then import it via browser settings? I've never done this before and my phone is off, so I'm just making an assumption here.

There's an add-on to the Dolphin browser called Bookmarks to SD. It is supposed to export and import and sync to Google Bookmarks, but it doesn't seem to do ANY of those three things.

You would think so, but I don't see a way to do it. I have all bookmarks in one HTML file on the SD card but no way to import them.

After a pretty bad experience and almost loosing all my contacts with the basic export contacts feature, I decided to do what I should have done in the first place...
Is there a decent app that allows you to export all contacts (to an excel doc for ex.) after which you could edit them from the PC and import them back on to the phone? Doing this without loosing linked contacts and synced to FB.
Why don't you use Google contacts?
Do you have a Gmail account?

can you export from phone contacts to google contacts easily or do you have to add them manually to google contacts?
Do you have a Gmail (/Google account). If so plus you connected it to your phone than it's very easy.
Which phone/version of android do you have?

Ofcourse Google itself is the best option.
But there is an app which exports all contact in to once single .vcf file.
Try searching marketplace.

Exporting to .vcf is the method I used without any app installed, using the phone's basic function, but after reimporting back I lost the FB synced contacts and besides opening and editing the .vcf file in excel is not so user friendly

Yea it worked great with google in 15 minutes or so... wish I thought of that before wasting 2 hrs with other methods
That's fine. You'll see the true benefit of this method soon. ;-)

So, am I the only one having issues getting the stock browser's bookmarks to sync or at least import to Dolphin? Tried everything (including the abysmal 'Bookmarks to SD' app) with no luck. I really liked the stability and speed of Dolphin but I have tons of bookmarks synced over from my desktop that I rely on to give it up.
PS - Opera Mobile is horrible and I don't care what anyone says.
Same problem with stock browser, my bookmarks are incomplete, but with dolphin and bookmarks to sd it's all right, and i have choose for this last one
Firefox: export bookmarks.html, copy to tablet, use "bookmark to sd" app and import the html.
F that, I'll stick with stock browser instead. It's too much of a hassle.
I don't understand why instead of syncing with Gmail, it can't sync/share the same location as the stock browser and let the stock browser do all the syncing.
Just picked up the Galaxy Tab 10.1 with 4G LTE today and was annoyed to see that Verizon had included some bookmarks that couldn't be deleted via the bookmark manager nor the history screen (deselecting the star). My workaround was to setup Chrome Bookmark Sync, choose to delete existing bookmarks as part of the wizard and then reset the browser to default once it completed.
Voila! No bookmarks and no sync. Just thought I would share in case anyone else was frustrated by this.
Is the chrome bookmark sync a application part of chrome?

Yes, it is part of both the browser on PC / Linux / Mac and the Android browser. You'll find the options if you dig around in the settings.
Thanks for that fix. It was driving me nuts seeing it in the widget
On all my other devices, in the stock android browser I have a bookmarks folder that is tied to my gmail account that always seems to show up. I am not getting this on my new s4. Any ideas how to get this? (without using Chrome)

Try Dolphin browser, you can sync bookmarks from within the browser by signing in to Google.

Yeah. I know that Dolphin can do this, but in this case I am wondering why the stock browser doesn't function the same as all of my other Android devices.

Because it is not an android stock browser. It is Sbrowser a modified version by samsung. no way to sync with your Google account. I had to save my bookmarks manually. Sucks. Other than that you would have to use chrome.
Hi All,
I'm trying to export my samsung internet bookmarks into Firefox but not having much luck at all. I first thought about using the samsung internet extension in Chrome to sync the bookmarks into chrome and then do an export from there. But this went a bit wrong when the extension deleted all of my samsung bookmarks and synced over my old chrome bookmarks. I wanted it to delete my old chrome bookmarks and copy over the newer ones from the Samsung browser.
I've looked on the play store for a bookmark utility which could possibly import & export across different browsers but haven't found anything.
Any suggestions appreciated.
