Motorola Droid : Good Bookmark / Favorites App?
Dec 22, 2009
I have yet to find a good Bookmark/Favorites widget. I have tried all the ones in the market that I can find and haven't found one with all the features I am looking for in a single app. Anyone know of a good one or working on one?
Basically I am looking for one that can do the following:
-show bookmarks in list form (icons take up a lot of room)
-allow editing of names and tags- AND have the changes take effect in the native browser
-have an entry in the program list (not just a widget or browser integration) so that a shortcut can be placed in a folder instead of just on the home screen
-import/export compatable with Firefox
If you don't know of one, feel free to add to the list of features incase any devs decide to take on the project.

Is there ANY way to keep the bookmarks, but clear the thumbnail picture information? I've tried clearing the history in the browser, but that's not doing the trick.

Running Droid 2.1 stock with Dolphin HD.This is a new problem as I never had it before with Dolphin. Just changed to Dolphin HD.When I try to make a bookmark shortcut to the desktop, the bookmarks it shows me are from Browser, not Dolphin. In Dolphin HD, I see all my bookmarks, but they are not choices for screen shortcuts.

I love shopping on the Android market for great apps =) share with us your favorite apps on this thread =) Mine:Credit to androidforum for many of these app suggestions. See here: Helpful Links and Info for Motorola Droid Users My favorite Droid apps (3 tiers):
Tier 1: On my home screen (most useful/most potential):
Gdocs notepad (syncs with google docs, others use ak notepad)
Gtasks (syncs with google tasks on gmail)
LockPattern OnOff (careful, don't forget your pattern, can brick your droid this way - google login to override pattern lock does not work on some droids including mine. Hopefully they'll fix this soon)
Shopsavvy vs barcode reader
Keyring
Pandora (or last.fm if you prefer)
Weather (that's the full name, i like their widget better than all others)
Power manager full (may want to wait till they fix the bluetooth toggle to buy, but i like having dif power profiles to switch to for home vs out and about - i place shortcuts to the profiles on my home screen and oneclick to activate. Alternative is 'locale' but locale doesnt work very well for droid)
Bluetooth toggle for droid (using this till power manager fixes itself for bluetooth)
Advanced task manager (i like that there's auto-end on the full version...saves me the trouble of closing programs manually. Is also a great easy interface for uninstalling programs)
Gps status (i use this for remembering where i parked my car, free and better than other parking apps. Just go to 'radar' view and click 'mark')
Meebo IM (better than IM+ lite, free, create a meebo acct and just sign into one acct and you'll have all your IM including facebook chat!)
Google navigation (included, it takes a while to get used to, but the key is making a 'my maps' on google maps on your computer, hitting 'layers' on google nav and 'more layers' and choosing your 'my maps'. Easier to get places this way than thru 'contacts' in my opinion. Also try mounting the droid vertically for gps use, i like it because you see forward more rather than to the sides - i wonder why other gps dont do that, it makes so much more sense!)
Buzzlock
Where
Google voice
Quickpedia (wiki reader, better than the rest bc font size adjustable)
Gmote (havent tried yet but looks promising)
Funny jokes (heh heh)
Easy dialer (my go-to for making calls to family and friends quickly)
Battery widget (this is the exact name)
Cardiotrainer (better than andando i think)
Bff photo (facebook photo albums of friends)
Instant lyrics
World weather (i use mainly the widget x 2 to see the time in asia so i know when i can call family and weather in chicago so i can gloat at my freezing friends =)
Facebook (from facebook inc)
SportsTap (best sports app. Period.)
Tier 2: Not on home screen but good to have:
Owner
Saymyname donut (talking caller id, make sure to get donut version, not the old one)
Ringdroid (make own ringtones)
Tone picker (set anything as a ringtone)
Where's my droid
Tier 3: Other useful apps:
Shazam
Places directory
aCar (mileage, maintenance, etc)
Astro (file explorer manager)
B-folders (for keeping sensitive data, can't speak for security, but better than nothing)
Backgrounds
Bible (all Bible versions, but needs data connection)
Dockrunner
Documents to go
gStrings (great free guitar or other instrument tuner)
Guitar chordz
Mabilo ringtones (a team, airwolf, stargate...need i say more? =)
Movies
My coupons
Prayers to share (share and pray for requests anonymously)
Poke a mole
Robo defense
Amazon
Amazon mp3
Motorola media link (program for your pc, havent used yet but looks to be best solution for syncing music)

Anyone using A Online Radio wondering how to delete stations from the favorites tab? There have been multiple posts about this on the developers site.I read their instructions multiple times on their forum post and after 2 days of thinking about it, I finally figured it out.They say that you're supposed to scroll through the list, and as you scroll, the entries will highlight. Then you can select delete from the menu you get from the droid's menu button.After many failed attemps at normal drag scrolling with my finger, I finally thought of trying to scroll with the direction pad on the hard keyboard.Open up to the keyboard and scroll down with that dpad, and items will highlight. You can then delete from the menu.Not hardly the best interface. check boxes and a select all would be much easier. But hey, at least now I can manage the favorites tab.

So please please forgive me if this has been asked, or is in conjunction with another thread, but I have a question for you all. Maybe you guys can help. So I know the sense Roms for the droid are around the corner (hopefully), but im not completely sure of what is included in it.
My only desire from the sense ROM would be the bookmark widget that is found on sense phones. Looks like the pic below. I was wondering if there might be apk out there that could be ported over with the fixed resolution for our phone. Or is my phone waiting for the sense ROM. Sorry I'm kinda obsessed with that widget, but not worth it to trade my droid for just that.

My Facebook bookmark on my default browser doesnt load correctly. It loads what was on my page hours ago. Then I hit home and it loads what was on it a minute after that, and again. I have to hit home (Facebook home) about 10 times before it gets up to date. Its pretty annoying.

I am looking for a very good app on android mark that will allow me to view video podcast such as phonedog and Geekbrief, gadget pron and a few others that I religiously watched from my ipod touch on a nightly basis. Of course the touch had itunes which was great, the only thing it lacked was being able to save your favorites without downloading them. I know they have a few things out there on android market that seem to do this, looking for the easiest and the best.

I'm curious how good, or bad, the "certified like new" phones are. Long story, but I had one, when my first DX crashed only a few days after having it. The "like new" phone had sporadic issues as well as the having loose plug-ins. I demanded (and got) a NEW replacement, which worked flawlessly until 2.2, and now I am having significant problems again. VZW said they would ship a new replacement phone since my NEW phone was only 3 weeks old when 2.2 hit. I found out yesterday it is yet another "certified like new" ("CLN") phone. I did not have good luck with the prior one. So, if you have experience with a CLN phone, what is your experience? Good? Bad? ANY glitches with it? I'm also wondering if I should wait on the fix that Motorola "says" is coming but who knows when that will be?

im privileged to be one of the few people in my circle of friends that own a droid and i blow them away in many feature comparisons as they all have iphones or blackberries but i noticed through the apple app store there were many cool apps where you can just shake the phone for certain features like wake-ups notifications and even being used in popular games just wondering what Android has that has that kinda cool "shake" feature i think it would be sweet.

I have a '99 Saturn SC2 that I modify. I've added an overhead console from a Suburban, and have a large space that I've always known I'd like to use for something cool. Looks like I'll be getting a Droid soon, and am eyeballing the spot for a Droid mount. So, I'm looking for a relatively inexpensive mount that I can modify to fit this space in front of the map lights.
I have a filler plate that fills that hole, which I can modify with the mount to give a cleaner look.
I'm still getting my head around what all I can do with the droid, so it's hard to say what all I plan to use it for in the car. I have not yet upgraded the stereo headunit, so the droid won't be interfacing with it for quite a while (on the plus side that means when I do upgrade the headunit, I can pick whatever's going to work out best). Might be nice to find a dock that activates the car mode or whatnot, but I'm not looking to spend big bucks on something that I'm going to likely have to chop up to make it fit.
Also, as this will be my phone and a business tool, the Droid needs to be easily removable.

Does anybody know any good wired headset with mic? I had the Motorola EH25 Stereo Earset And i liked it before it broke in 2 months. And i want to get an new one. But i want something that will last me longer then that. Even though i didn't lose any money on those because i bought it from overstock with warranty and they ended gaving me the full refund with the price of product and the warranty price back . I am not big fan of blue tooth headsets because first you have to turn on the bluetooth on your phone and then pair it and also then u have to charge your bluetooth end of the day. In the end its too much of an hassle. Besides the quality of the sound through wired headsets are much better then the bluetooth from what i have experienced. Any advice for good wired headsets(w mic). I will be using it for mostly phone calls and not that much music.

Ok so here's the deal guys and gals, I am trying to have my phone assist me with my running. There are plenty of apps that will track my run via gps if I bring my phone on the run with me, but I don't wanna do that. I want to be able to map a course out, enter how long it took me, save the map and even share it with friends. Ideally the app would have the gps running features I mentioned above just on case I ever do start bringing my phone with me. Here is an example of what I mean in website form (unfortunately they make a sweet app for the iphone but their android version is pretty awful right now.MapMyRun.com -
