LG Browser - Bookmarks page - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
Does anyone know how to set the bookmarks page as home page on stock LG browser?
Im trying to set it as "Custom Page" but what is the URL for it?
Thanks.

I dont know that but i m using its widget on one of my homescreens. Pretty useful i think

Thats a good idea! Thanks bro!
I did it but with shortcuts as icons and added it to a folder on home screen. Doesnt fill as much as the other widget

Bookmark Icon HELP

how do i enable bookmark website icons, as u can see im stuck with the stock bookmark icons and after seeing the CHT screenshots, one of them was a bookmark link with a picture of the xda website as the icon. i would like to do this for all my bookmarks anyone know how to do it? ive been looking for a good hour all over xda for an answer im running the April 13 energy 21898 CHT
Try going into pIE and opening each of the bookmarked pages from your bookmarks within Internet Explorer. Then your bookmarks on your hometab should show up as pics of the webpages. Make sure you let the pages load fully, and if one or two of them dont show up the first time, its probly cause of ads or something flashing, so go into Internet Explorer's settings and turn off "show pictures" and then try again.
thx so much. this was the answer to my problem.
THANK YOU,
i've been wondering that to, and your trick works!!!!!!!!!!

While on the lockscreen, put your finger on the clock and swipe down. This will expand the clock widget and then allow you to long press the clock and remove it. Once removed (or swiping to an open lockscreen panel) you will see the white plus sign graphic that will open the lockscreen widgit selection dialogue.
Let me know if this is confusing, I can try to explain it in a different way.
Awesome got it! Thanks bro!

Silly question about wallpaper

Alright guys
I recently installed Omega Rom on my I9505 and for the life of me I cannot remember how to make the wallpaper stay centered. It seems to be going off to the side as if I have other pages on my desktop. I only use one page with icons and a widget and want the wallpaper to be centered. I think I seen an option for this somewhere but cant remember where.
Anyone have any info on this?

If you are using the default Touchwiz launcher which I am sure you are, it's designed to scroll
the wallpaper. There are plenty of other launchers you can install from the playstore which
have options and settings which can enable or disable the wallpaper scrolling.
When you go to the playstore it's best to install 5-6 different launchers, that way you can
check them out and see which one you prefer.
Good luck!
Good luck!

Help with setting lock screen wallpaper

Hi I've just flashed foxhound rom 0.8 on to my s4 but when I go to change my lock screen wallpaper, the option to choose from gallery is not there. only from the default wallpapers. for home screen the options come out but not for lock screen. Any idea why? I can't Post on the developers thread yet. so if anyone has a solution or could help me post there it would be much appreciated. a couple of guys asked about it before but no one gave a solution.
Thanks.

What launcher are you using? How about navigating to your preferred image in Gallery, then trying to set it as wallpaper from there?
Im using Nova Launcher. Ive tried that too. I can only set as Wallpaper, not Lock screen Wallpaper. I cant ask the foxhound developers as i cant post there yet since i just signed up.
Hmm noticed the same thing here. Previous on TW, able to set lock screen wallpaper from gallery or from settings. Now on Google Edition, doesn't seem to have this option

Note that doing the next few steps will reset your default app preferences, disabled apps etc.
In Settings, Application Manager, hit menu then Reset App Preferences.. read the warning!
This would help IF whatever's causing your problem is actually a 3rd party app that "clashes" (in a way) with the stock Gallery app
edit: also.. if that doesn't help, maybe try changing wallpapers from within touchwiz launcher, THEN relaunch nova
Tried to do what you said adrian, but still no go. When i click on display, wallpaper, lock screen, still only shows me one option there 'wallpapers' . No gallery or option for any 3rd party picture viewer. Could someone maybe help me post on the foxhound 0.8 for i9505 thread?
Thanks alot.
download QuickPic, pretty certain you can set lockscreen wallpaper using that

Correct. Been using that app for two years now. It's way smoother and quicker than the stock Gallery app and has some very useful features as well (excluding unwanted folders etc.) :good:

My bad, had the tab open too long and didn't refresh prior to answering. Odd that Quickpic doesn't work for you!
no worries man. but i know what you mean. it appears on my s2 with cm rom. but not on my s4 with foxhound. i just need to find out if its a bug in the rom or not

[Oreo stock] Impossible to add url bookmark or app specific shortcut on home screens?

It looks like I can't add any app specific shortcut on my home screens.
In Firefox, when I click to add a bookmark to the home screen, nothing happens, no shortcut is created.
And on FB messenger the option to add a chat head shortcut to the homescreen doesn't even show up anywmore.
I tried with stock launcher, lawnchair and Nova, same problem.
Did I miss something?
Btw I just bought that G6 and updated to Oreo right out of the box, so I don't know how it was on Nougat.
(missing Messenger option in attached screen cap)
https://stackoverflow.com/questions...uts-on-android-o-when-targetting-less-than-it
https://developer.android.com/about/versions/oreo/android-8.0-changes#as
Ok I guess the apps need to be updated to use the new method.
No one else has that problem?
