Hey all,
On my S3, if I used the stock internet app, it synced all my bookmarks from my Google Chrome.
But on the S4 it doesn't do this...
Anyone know how to make it work?
I was just making a thread about this subject. I have created some bookmarks manually now but I too want to sync the stock browser with Google and not a Samsung Account.
Seems they left more stuff out because labs is gone and zoom to fit too.
I think you have to use google Chrome for that.

I know android chrome syncs with desktop chrome bookmarks, but what if i prefer stock browser?
i tried the bookmark sync apk that worked for galaxy s3 but it didnt do anything for s4
there is no "sync browser" option in google account, only "sync chrome"
anyone?
Bump...
Waiting for answer as well...

Same here...on top of that allo s4 as n7100 si missing the mail account shortcut!!! Amazing...
I used BookmarkSB to sync mine, first with Chrome and then with the stock browser. :
That's weird that this phone doesnt sync with google bookmarks, but Note2 syncs.. It's also REALLY ANNOYING!...

Hi,
How do u sync with bookmarksb, i don't see any option to restore bookmarks
thanks in advance
This is crazy you buy a phone from almost €700 and you can not synchronized your internet bookmarks.
I try again with my note2 and no problem. So it must be something with the phone i think.
I think it's only work with the chrome browser. But i dont want to used the chrome browser.

Agreed..I tried bookmarks sb although it said restored it hasn't. I guess the location of bookmarks has confused it.

It's sad. The S4 i9500 came with the standard browser and Google Chrome. Chrome syncs bookmarks fine, but no options to sync with standard browser.. And it's a shame because Samsung air gestures only work on the standard browser (and the scrolling surprisingly is pretty useful)
Can anyone help with this? Sync Google bookmarks, or will chrome be updated for gestures?
Cheers
Also looking for a solution to this :|

+1 this is driving me mad!
I swear I found an option to sync bookmarks (somewhere in menu) with google account when I bought the phone 4 weeks ago, though unsuccessful, but probably after an OTA update i couldn't find that option anymore! Maybe google did it in purpose to prevent further syncing with the stock browser, all in order to use chrome browser only. What you think about it? I had S2 before the S4 and there was no problem syncing at all.
S4 stock browser does not sign in and syncronise bookmark
I have both the s2 and the s4.
with the s2 I get all the bookmarks in the stock browser.
I have more gmail accounts and I get all the different accounts.
With s4 nothing. ...
Shouldn't they improve with new versions of the phones?!!!!
Same to me on my s2 i was able to restore them on my browser now not anymore
any resolution on this yet?
Anyone found a solution?

The one that is working for me.
I am trying to get my bookmarks on my phone from my chrome browser on my computer but there is no option in the syncing to sync with your google account. I don't wish to use the Chrome browser all the time and besides having your bookmarks in chrome from your requires you to keep sync enabled and I don't want to as that uses battery that I don't want to spend. So is there anyway to sync your stock browser with chrome from your desktop for bookmarks to be on the phone?
I just started looking into this last night myself and so far haven't found a solution. Looks like it's a known issue though... keep us posted if you find a resolution.
i use the chrome browser on my PC and the stock aosp browser on my S4. both browsers are signed in to my gmail. bookmarks sync perfectly. as a matter of fact, hyperlinks sync as well. if i view an xda thread on my device, it shows it as read on my PC.
How do I delete the bookmarks Verizon has defaulted us to? I cannot seem to get BookmarkSB to work.
I have been trying to get my browser to sync up. So it loads my bookmarks but under Google there is not a browser sync function. How do you get it to sync up and load them? Also how do you remove the bookmarks preinstalled?
I'd like to know this also. There's no Google internet sync option that I can find. Can't even add Google as an account in the browser

Are you using Google Chrome or the stock browser?
