I installed a bunch of updates on my wife's S5 and the internet icon changed. There was a Samsung Internet for Android in there that I
didn't notice. It evidently changed the default browser. How do I get the old one back or is the Samsung Internet for Android just an update
to the old one?
 
I went back to the Play Store and read all the reviews and now understand this was an actual update to the Samsung browser. The main thing about
it turned all the homepage shortcuts to generic icons with no identifiers on them. If you have tons of them like me that is a pain in the keister.
I had to go to each internet site on my wife's S5 and downloaded each one to the homescreen and then remove the generic ones and move the downloaded one to the correct folders. I did all this after uninstalling the update.

Will wait to update my S5 and see if they correct any of this.
