Is there a way to add favicons when pinning a bookmark to the home screen? Rather than just the stock HTC bookmark icon?
Looks like in Froyo there is. When you click 'Add Shortcut' and then 'Bookmark' you'll get a favicon for the bookmark icon.
oh well...
Was planning to wait for Orange to roll out their update, but I might just have to do some reading and upgrade myself.

Everytime I put down a widget for friends or coworkers etc... It shows orange voicemail Icon, which I do not want on there.
Is there anyway to remove it, or is it the de-branding lark again?
Any Ideas?
No-one??? this is using the HTC people widget by the way!!!
Is there a way of dragging one of the people out of the widget, instead of binning the whole widget?
I think it might be to do with the type of number you have it stored as.
Go into people, then go to the contact and click menu. Then click more, then choose widget action and select if you want to view contact (i think this is the option causing you grief) call mobile, or new message.
To remove it from favourites on that widget you click the contact in people, then menu and edit, then untick favourites in the group box.
I had the same problem and the only way to remove it is to goldcard and load unbranded rom. Orange really murdered the desire with there crap, who comes up with this **** is what I want to know.
I think i may have solved it, if you fill up the contact board, then click the plus button, add a new contact and it should remove the icon!

You mean bookmarks or people (contacts)?
I mean, the screen that originialy are directly to the right of the homescreen. Where you can add up to 9 people. I would like to call that my favorites, but. hehe.
Press and hold on the screen, add the 'People' widget, select the group to be displayed as 'Favourites'
Thank you! :-D
Hi.
I was looking for a widget that displays your bookmarks as thumbnails right on the screen. Found two - Live Bookmarks and Visual Bookmarks.
The first does it's job alright - it updates bookmarks as I change them, though it doesn't display them right on screen - first you have to click on the icon.
The second, however it looks just as it shuold, does a crappy job when it comes to settings. It doesn't refresh my b-marks properly, and settings doesn't really work the way I set them to be.
Do you happen to know any other app that might do the job I need done?
Or maybe you could make one?

You can download visual bookmarks from the market, which should display them for ya right nicely.
Nice! Ill check it out now. Thank you!

No problem man.
I'm not sure what the feelings are on reviving such an old topic but I have been wondering exactly this and, after following the advice google so kindly showed me, I was loathe to discover the current visual bookmarks explicitly states that it displays the bookmarks from the stock browser (this was confirmed when I installed to try it). So, are there any widgets to display firefox bookmarks?

This is the kind of widget I was looking for and Firefox does it out of the box!
Just hold click in the link bar and and Firefox proposes you to add a link on your home screen. Actually this is all I want, and works perfectly adding even a nice icon!
I'm trying to use the bookmark widget. I place the widget on a screen and get the Choose a Bookmark box but the box is empty. I do have Bookmarks in Chrome. Any ideas how I can fix this? Thanks.
A lot of people seem to be having the same problem, me included. I found a minor fix for it but it's still a bit annoying.
If you want to add a bookmark to the home screen then first find chrome in Google Play and uninstall the updates. Now you should be able to add bookmarks to your home screen, when you have added all the bookmarks you want you can reinstall the latest chrome updates. Being able to add bookmarks still doesn't work but you have the bookmarks you placed already.
Thanks. That workaround should be good enough.
