[Q] How to export/import browser bookmarks? - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I notice bookmarks do not carry over when I flash new ROM.
Is there a way to save bookmarks like desktop version of Chrome?

There's a couple apps in the Market that can do this.
Here's one

Weren't we supposed to have Google chrome ...

I don't remember what forum I had seen it on but on ice they were supposed to replace our stock browser with a Google chrome browser. I wonder what happened.??

I believe the stock browser on ICS is the Chrome equivalent for Android. It should sync bookmarks and whatnot with your desktop Chrome browser.
Correct me if I'm wrong.

Sync Chrome bookmarks with sgt?

So, is it possible to sync my chrome bookmarks with sgt stock gingerbread browser? Sgt browser supports folders, so it should be possible right?
Are there any programs that allows me to do that?

Try bookmarks to SD. It's for Dolphin browser It allows you to sync from Google account to stock browser too I think...

[Q] chrome bookmarks in stock browser!?!?

How the hell do I get my chrome bookmarks in the stock browser like my tablet has! I purchased the app chromemarks thinking it would do it. But it will only let me access my bookmarks not transfer them to the stock browser. So i have to open the app first then auto tranafered to the browser.
If someone can shine some light at this. It will be appreciated and thanked
Might be a part of the ics update.

I doubt the stock browser would do it, but a different browser can. Currently you can't use it on our phone because the browser requires ICS, but chrome for android allows syncing.
Even though I do use chrome on my desktop, I read about the firefox beta today and it has that feature between the firefox desktop browser, so I might switch back to firefox for now.

Where the heck are our LOCAL BOOKMARKS stored?

Ok, I want to import my Dolphin Bookmarks to be seen as the Local Bookmarks for the stock browser. Any ideas?

OK turned off my chrome bookmark syncing from my desktop but it seems the stock browser is automatically looking for them anyway which is slowing things down.
There doesn't seem to be an option to turn off this behavior.

Ugh this is getting frustrating. The stock browser give us NO control over our bookmarks at all.
I want to import my Dolphin bookmarks to be used as the Local Bookmarks in the stock browser. No idea how.
Anyone know?

I was able to use the Bookmarks to SD extension for Dolphin to export my Dolphin bookmarks and then import into the stock browser.

Yes. Unfortunately it does not preserve any folders.

Chrome Bookmarks

I'm getting frustrated with the way Chrome bookmarks are set up. Can anyone tell me how to make something a bookmark on my mobile and desktop bookmarks simultaneously? Whenever I add it to one group, it removes it from the other. I currently found a compromise by having my mobile version show the desktop bookmarks, but most of them are sites I do not access on any device other than my laptop. This is a very poor design, so I'm sure someone has figured out a workaround by now.
Try an app called "cmarks" to sync chrome bookmark both way
hope this helps.

I have a similar issue, I use bookmarks, not some mobile and some desktop bookmarks. I access all my websites on both my phone, tablet and pc.
I would like my phone and tablet to stop showing me the Mobile Bookmarks as default and instead show me the Desktop Bookmarks, because I keep and manage all my bookmarks on my desktop only. Not having to manage multiple sets of bookmarks is why I sync in the first place .
Now, I might be daft since I have not figured this out by myself, but Google has not been much help to me either.
Anyone got at tip? I run Stock JB 4.1.2 with latest Chrome browser on Samsung Galaxy S2. My tablet is an ipad with Chrome browser.
Thanks!
