Chrome Bookmark widget empty when adding to home screen - Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Firefox bookmark widget?

is their a widget that displays firefox bookmarks for the homescreen or a way to allow firefox bookmarks from the bookmark widget in launcherpro plus?
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?
To add a bookmark icon on desktop
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!

Widgets keep overlapping?

I'm currently running the starskyrom with the EI22 modem and have go launcher installed but for some reason it will occasionally overlap widgets like calender and beautiful widgets. Never happened before.. Anybody have an Idea why this is happening?
I tried uninstalling golauncher and re-installing but same thing happens.
Go launcher includes options for tighter grids. Native 4x4 shouldn't allow overlaps.
There is an autofit option under Preferences->Screen Settings-> Auto-fit items.
Between those 2 settings, you should be able to stop the overlap.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I tried that but its weird cause it will merge widget from other pages and duplicate them on another while overlapping at the same time lol
Had something similar where the corner of the weather widget was showing in place of a widget on another page. I'm guessing you did it already, but delete and re add widget to the screen.

yeah tried that already.. Weird cause all the setting were the same coming from MIUI and I never had an issue with it.
Any solution to this? I'm suddenly having this problem. I first noticed it while trying another rom and uninstalled believing the rom to be in error. I went back to my staple rom and I'm having the same problem. I deleted Go Launcher Ex folder from SD, uninstalled and reinstalled..problem persists.

Bookmark Widget Not Working

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.

Google keep widget

Hey everyone, I was trying to put google keep widget on my homescreen but its not working. Everytime I go into widgets and press on google keep, it asks me which notes to show, I select all notes and then it takes me back to the homescreen and no widget is there.
Is it a google keep app issue? All other widgets work fine except for BBC news app (same issue as described above). Also google keep widget is currently working fine on my m8.
Anyone can replicate that? Any thoughts? I got the latest OTA btw.

It's working fine here. Try an uninstall or data wipe...
Managed to make it work. Weirdly it had something to do with animation settings under developer menu.

Facebook folder options

I cleaned flashed Pure Nexus on my pixel xl after having a few problems which so far have been fixed. However I have noticed now that when trying to upload a picture through the Facebook app or pages manager you cannot choose which file from your folders. I'm stuck with the default "gallery" folder which is is not sorted by most recent unless I take a new photo and then it shows at the top only and don't have any option to choose which folder to choose the media from.
Any ideas appreciated

I know, and it's super super weird and annoying. I randomly fixed it myself and not sure how I did it.
Try going to your display settings and changing the display size down two click (you can move the font size up to compensate). Now close FB, and reopen it. You should now be able to select albums instead of only having that stupid gallery view
