Interesting. I will have to do another restore and see what in the heck it was. Maybe I was being asked to import settings/bookmarks.

One thing can do — a cheap trick that takes an extra step I feel we shouldn't have to take — make a Javascript bookmarklet. When selected it will fire that url open in Chrome.

The problem for me is it takes too many steps to get to bookmarklets. Not as simple to get to as in a desktop browser.

If you want to give it a try, add a bookmark/boomarklet withthe following:

    javascript:location.href="googlechrome"+location.href.substring(4);

I did a quick search over youtube to see if anyone had recorded the restore process of an iPhone... Nothing.

Was your restore of version 6? Mine was version 6 -> version 6. I was not doing a version 5 -> version 6.

Later tonight I will backup/restore and record the process to see what the Safari/Chrome selection screen was all about.

Sorry I could not be more of assistance.
