I would assume no.
Different phones have different browsers.
You might be able to write to the stock android one.

But I doubt it, given apps tend not to be able to write to other apps folders

This is definitely possible with a rooted device.

Titanium Backup for example can backup and restore the default Android browsers bookmarks (and other settings).

Have a look on Google.

This page shows native Android code that will do the job: Android - Accessing Data With Android Cursors - Android Tutorials.

Thanks for the reply :),
I know it can be done with a root device; I developed a B4a program that does that: search in Google or in the Market "Bokmarks Easy Import".

I was interested to see if it was possible to read and write Android bookmarks without root to make my program more usable; for now it seems impossible. :sign0148:
