Is there any way to import bookmarks from a desktop browser (any really, I'll work out the conversion) or from an html/xml file into the standard browser on the SGS2 (Internet app) in a way the retains folder structure? All of the methods I've tried (e.g., MyBookmarks, GMarks, importing into Dolphin browser and then exporting) at best manage to put the bookmarks into "Most visited" as a flat list. Kies can create bookmarks but, as far as I can tell, only one at a time, and there's no way to create folders. The app itself can create folders but there doesn't seem to be a way to import bookmarks. Any ideas?
Work around i used on SGS 1 was to save bookmarks on PC as html .
Copy that to a folder on SD card open that html bookmark file load the relevant site and then bookmark it in the phone .
Import bookmarks never got that to work .
However the same method may work with Dolphin use the Dolphin Bookmarks to SD app save existing bookmarks this creates a folder .
Navigate to Tunny Browser file open open bookmarks and paste in bookmarks from PC .

I use google chrome on my desktop, so I use this app https://market.android.com/details?id=com.h.chromemarks&feature=search_result 'ChromeMarks' to sync my bookmarks.
Then I just open up the app on my phone, and upon clicking on a bookmark, it will ask my which browser to use. You can select a default action aswell, so it just goes straight to browser A forexample.
Ok just tested this method copy bookmarks to phone from PC into Dolphin Browser .
Install Dolphin Bookmarks to SD from market .
Run app and export bookmarks to create folder bookmarks .
On PC save bookmarks as bookmarks.html .
Copy to phone Via USB Dropbox Wifi whatever . to internal sd card Tunny Browser Bookmarks folder .
Open Bookmarks to SD and Import selection the file you just copied across .
Worked with my two hundred odd bookmarks .

Very interested in everyone's comments and experience on this thread as I'm a browser addict and the good rendering speed was a big part of the reason why I bought an SGS2.
I tried Chrome to phone, Dolphin Bookmark Sync and Firefox Sync plugin all to no avail. It's not that they don't work, it's just that CtP will just create an app with no true integration with your mobile browser, Dolphin doesn't support subfolders and neither does FF.
In fact, the 'best' solution I found was to *gasp* switch from Chrome to Opera on my two desktops, enable OperaSync and now I can use opera mobile on android with all the bookmarks synced between the 3 devices.
Interestingly, Opera is also the only mobile browser to support ALL of the following: 'open in background tab' type click, proper UA spoofing and subfolders in bookmarks, and sync of course.
I can't wait for the next release of Android to come out - hopefully they will make a 'chrome-like' something the default browser and enable a sync over the cloud.
What do you guys think?

Yes, this does work well - thanks. The other (similar) possibility that works is to use Firefox Sync within Firefox Mobile and the desktop client. I don't really like the mobile version, though. Opera Mobile is better, but I was (am) really hoping to use the native browser.
I need to access a https site. Its authentication is PKCS12 type(.p12).
My phone is LG 2X with 2.3.4. It can import the certification successfully.
However, the default browser cannot open the web page. It has a secure connection error.
I have tried Opera Mini, Opera Mobile, Dolphin HD, Xscope and no help.
The .p12 file is usable certainly since I can use it on my PC with IE and Google Chrome.
What is the problem? The cert using in android is different from PC? I need to set something in the browser?
Thank you
Hello
I'm currently using Firefox 11 as my computer browser, MIUI (GB version) Stock browser on my EVO 3D phone, and ICS Browser+ on my Transformer Prime tablet, and i've come across a problem.
I can't seem to sync my bookmarks properly.
I've been able to easily sync calendar, contacts, etc with my gmail.com account and such, but I absolutely refuse to use Chrome as my browser just for the sync ability.
So i've come here to ask if anyone has a solution to my problem?
I'd like to be able to sync between all 3 devices if possible (If not possible, at least sync between Firefox 11 on my computer and ICS Browser+ on my tablet?)

Export your bookmarks from Firefox, a HTML file will be created. Try to restore that file using an app like Bookmarks backup&restore
I have motorola defy running CM10, and I can sync chrome bookmarks using chrome for android. But the app is a bit laggy on defy, so I am using stock android browser and here is a method to sync bookmark between chrome browsers and android browser:
When you go to Android browser it only shows your local bookmarks. Whenever you try to go to settings -> accounts and sync it says that there is a problem in Sync Browser, yet it doesn’t say what exactly the problem is. If you have faced this problem here is the solution you were continuously looking for.
How to Fix Sync Browser Problem in Android?
I identify this problem as a bug when interfacing different Google products. The root cause of problem is Google desktop browser supports encryption for all data types while Android browser supports only for passwords. If you have already encrypted entire data only thing you can do is clear all the data and start it again with only password encryption. Here is how to do it and sync Chrome bookmarks with Android browser.
Go to Google Dashboard confirming your password.
Scroll down to section chrome sync and click on Stop sync and delete data from Google.
This will delete entire synced browser data in Google account and it might take few minutes.
Now open Google chrome, go to Settings.
There you can find sign in section. Click sign in to chrome. Here you will have to generate Application specific password if you have enabled Two Step verification.
Then it will take you to Confirm sync settings window.
Click advance and make sure you have selected encrypt passwords only. If you encrypt all synced data android browser won’t be able to work with them.
Click OK to proceed with syncing.
In your android Smartphone go to Settings -> Apps -> All -> browser and Clear data.
Now go to Settings -> Accounts & sync. You will be able to see Sync browser is working fine now.
Open the browser and go to Bookmarks. Now you can see all the Bookmarks that you have in desktop browser in your Android Smartphone browser as well.

I had this issue before, i did what you said, it worked. Now just few days ago, as i wiped chrome sync/restarted it, the stock browser sync started to fail again.
Problem is i DID NOT select ENCRYPT ALL, only passwords, yet it definitly refuse to sync, no matter how many time i delete/restart sync on chrome, wipe data on android..
I know it's an old post,but... Thank you! This thing bothered me for last week.I didn't do anything,just changed rom from cm10.1 to paranoid and this sh.t happened.

This sync browser solution it's only for Android 4.0 and 4.1 not for gingerbread.
You need to use an special .apk that is men't to do just that. I thinkbit called ChromeBookmarSync.apk or something like that. Just google "AOSP browser without root" and you will fibd it. I can't give you any links becouse im on mobile, but you will find it.

Kind of defeats the purpose. My work have given me a selection of apps but no chrome browser, is it possible to side load chrome browser and other apps that are not in the library of literally 9apps they have given?
If anyone can work it out, it would be on XDA!
I am using a Samsung s10 plus with encryption just how work have forced the setup.
The reason. For chrome.
1.Outlook won't allow me to open html, attachments with the incompany browser.
2.Condeco desk booking won't work without outlook
3. Built in browser is terrible, can use to login to Google via some sites as it's seen as not trusted! ( Funny because they don't trust chrome)
