Default how to delete bookmarks that don't have option to delete?

how to delete bookmarks that don't have option to delete? Motorola included some and they took away the option to delete them using the long-press/menu option.

Is there a file I can go into and edit?

Go into the etc/motorola/com.android.browser folder and long press on the "defaults.xml" file and select "open in text editor".

You'll see something like this:

<map>
<string name="homepage">http://www .google. com/m?client=ms-android-verizon&amp;source=android-home</string>
<int name="preloaded_bookmark" value="2"/>
<boolean name="fix_picasa" value="false"/>
<boolean name="ua_has_displaysize_model" value="true"/>
</map>


All you need to do is remove the &amp (in bold) and change the 2 (in bold) to 0 (zero) and save the changes. They will not be in bold on your phone, I did it just to highlight the parts that need to be edited.

I use an app for that. If you search market for "Backup bookmarks" it's the first hit.
