yup only reason i was using dolp again was because of the update which is really nice nice enough that i want to set it as my default for this first time in over a month lol

im guessing its a bug from not removing the old version which was a few versions out of date when i installed it going to try removing and reinstalling it now

Are you using home++ with dolphin? Just hold the browser button and you should be able to select it as default. I had to do it after the update...

just tried that two i have already changed everything in home++ to dolp before hand though

its not the powerbar that isnt running it thats fine the bookmarks are not working though but thats not even a big deal

the main thing is the website shortcuts on my home screen such as the touch.facebook.com one and other sites are still loading in browser these are short cuts i made from the dolp bookmarks settings >< lol

and the check box in the dolp settings wont stay checked

I had the same problem trying to Dolphin as the default browser. After lots of frustration, I rebooted the Droid and that resolved the I issue. Give that a try.

How do I set my preferred home page?

On the previous Dolphin version I was able to set my homepage to one of my choice...on this newest version I downloaded the other day, the initial boot up page that appears is always the 'Dolphin Browser' screen with the Google Search bar...I tap on the menu, but it does not display any option to set my home screen?

Am I being daft here or did they change this to where you must always go to the bookmarks to choose where you are navigating to 1st?
