Use a T-Mobile ROM be sure to use one that is confirmed to work with an at&t phone.

ok so a tmobil rom will let me get it? can you confirm this works? do you know what rom will be safe to install?

im on rogers when i got my s3 i just opened drop box and selected i already have an account , sighned in and within 25 min my space was upsated.

There are a couple techniques listed here: http://www.cincygeek.com/2012/07/how-to-get-50-gb-dropbox-on-your-new-samsung-galaxy-s3/
You might lose your IMEI though, so flash at your own risk...

Same thing here, it was part of the process when first running the phone. However, you did have to do 5 different things to unlock the full 50gb, but it doesn't take much time.

As long as you're rooted, the instrcutions I sent you via PM will work.

YOU DO NOT NEED TO FLASH ANY ROMS to get it.
that's all I will say about it but please don't risk softbricking your phone to get this. it's way simpler than that but you'll have to search for the method yourself.

I got it on my Captivate

Is the 50GB lifetime or just for a year (limited). If it is lifetime i can see it being with the trouble to get.
Thanks

It's only for two years. That goes for any galaxy s3 on any network. AT&T didn't make the agreement with dropbox so no temporary 50 gb for us

Like a few folks above me have said, it's very easy to get the free storage space. All you need is root access, no special rom required. Fwiw, I did it on a Rogers rom.

It expires 7/15/2014, by which time 50GB or greater will be the basic free standard anyway.
Also, some people have reported that Dropbox took back the 50GB and reverted their account to the original 2GB (minus other referral bonuses, etc) after they got caught, so only cheat the system if you really need the extra space and have other backups.
(DropBox also caught on to the HTX OneX cheaters, and fixed that)

I accidentally "cheated" the system. I flashed a t-mobile rom when I got my SGS3 when it came out because thats all their was, and it was compatible. Turns out it had the dropbox.apk. I logged in and noticed it gave me 50GB free.
I still have it.

I've still got my space too.

confused? Are you just letting us know this or plan on letting us know how to accomplish it? Or just felt like posting your findings?

Search, you will find that it does not work on our phones.

Put ur credit card under the phone and tape it. It worked for me!

Ur friend is a damn liar. It doesn't work. Maybe he just got passed the startup but it won't work when purchasing stuff
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium

It would take a lot of work. Modify the apk, modify the phone, then modify your ports and proxy. Still wouldn't be very safe and would have to make sure nfc beam was off. For reasoning on this point, just research why most credit cards lost their smart chips. For the lazy, a person of interest may find it a bit easier to get your credit card details if your are broadcasting it.
Now if Google incorporated a little 2 step process, Google it, then maybe it could work. Though I am sure this may prompt certain individuals to start working hard to get access to our Google ids.
For giggles, I tried first and second part. It kept crashing settings.apk. Something with the nfc trying to initialize and at random times killed my radio when trying to connect to Google. Not sure if that had something to do with TMO. Didn't bother looking into it more.

Well it is possible that way but modifying the apk will lead to problems but i just think that we take files from the galaxy nexus gsm and edit the phone like build.prop so instead we trick the apk but we might need to tweak it a little.
Ps I'm not a expert dev or a newbe im in the middle closer to newbee because I'm too scared to root my phone.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app

Message to everyone is there anyway to access the SYSTEM FILES of the phone maybe update mode so i can try to change build.prop
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app

Yes, but not through the phone that I know of. And outside the phone, well if you are too scared to root then you should be too scared to Odin. So I will leave it at no

Its not going to work. There is a thread about this already.

Good luck with it. Alternatively, if you're taking a trip out of the country, T-Mobile may give you the unlock code. They're not always quick about it though.

Try this tutorial but you may have to change your ROM. Let me know how it goes. If it works up my thanks. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nsL7Wqpqzy8

The op is trying to unlock a different device. And I have to be honest, the free unlock we have is much easier to do. Plus its free!
This could help those with the T999L/T999N, but you left out very important information. Such as the website you have to go to, how much does it cost, who does it?

I get what your saying but I was trying to help as best as I could. I just went to google and used the I am feeling lucky button and that is what popped up.
I don't even know how to unlock phone's myself.

Yeah my s3 was unlocked using that method but the xperia zl is a pain in the @$$ but thanks again guys

Just a quick piece of advice....when doing anything to these type devices, never use that feeling lucky junk from Google. If you're really lucky you won't add yourself to long list of bricks that were caused by doing this.

Can't u just unlock it with apps like galaxysim unlock?
also there are many posts about unlocking your phone on the forums u can DIY at home with just a couple of softwares and apps, all u need is to type unlock note 2 in search and follow the procedure under u're respective model number's forum
as for site I ain't so sure as I just use galaxysim unlock and i'm rooted but I don't think it needs root to be installed.Just await confirmation on that part from one of the others members and see what they suggest

Thanks for the feedback @aradhaya10 i found a couple of ways to do it for free but they all seem to have little risks. I may just try what you did. Im just looking for feedback because I've never really used any other method other than paying someone for a code.

That's aite everyone is afraid to do stuff to their device for the first time just await confirmation from one of the other members for the best method otherwise galaxysim unlock is quite alright

There is a thread for unlocking galaxy s3 gsm, the same method applies for the galaxy note 2, you will and might have to roll back to earlier version of android, I think 4.1.1 but I forgot which baseband was successful, find that thread and you'll be golden. Should take you 10minutes top to roll back and unlock then update to which ever OS you want. No need to pay $40 or what ever.

Thanks guys but I ended up paying 30 $ and calling it a day. I was trying to root but couldn't since I only have Ubuntu and Mac machines. Didn't find root methods for 4.1.2 on these machines so I couldn't unlock using the method you mentioned @mrkevo3000 waiting on a pc to root. Thanks again guys
