One quick question, S3 and Note2 both are coming with 50 GB DropBox account out of the box, support I have both, does that entitle me of getting 100 GB Extra Space or would it be 50 GB only :|
Thanks,

Just 50 I think. That's all I got when I switched anyway. There's another thread about this somewhere, but as far as I know no-one got 100 GB.
I m sure its just 50gb. Otherwise u can get unlimited space
I had both...got my first 50 on my s3...but when I got my note 2 I noticed they didnt increase so I signed out and let a friend sign in on my phone and so he got 50 gb too..and it worked

I had a tab 2, which came with 50 gb and now own a note 2. Got a total of 100 gb after signing in on both.

I've been looking through the Q & A forums for a while now, but since all carriers have been mashed together it is a lot harder to find what one needs. With that said, I know the answer I seek is here somewhere, but even search has failed me.
I am curious how much space is left over on the Sprint 16gb model after the first boot? I saw an AT&T screen show showing 12 gig or so.
12 gigs for the Sprint version too.

Hey,
I am with Rogers and have the same amount showing as well....
Thanks for the quick replies.
I think I they should really have more memory then listed to ensure you get that actual amount being sold, if you putting 16 gig in them but making 12 available, then install 20 gigs so you get the full 16 gig... my tab is same way it's a 32 gig but only 28 shows avail...

confirmed on my blue gs3 16 with sprint. 12gb free at stock. I guess only getting 3/4's isn't so bad...lol:laugh:
I agree with you completely.

Although that makes sense but that's just how it is. Just like if you bought a laptop the OS takes up some of the advertised hard drive cap.

i've used Box in the past on my tablet. they give you several gigs of storage, but then they only allow you to upload a max file of like 90-100mb.. is there a limit with dropbox?

No limit to it as far as I know. Ive done files as big as 2gb at a time.
And for anyone on att/verizon who's lookin to get it Ive included an attachment. not my work but dont remember where i found it. will work on any phone. Unlink any accounts from dropbox prior to flashing. Worked back when I used it, Imagine it still does
Well I work for sprint and to get the 48gb you have to go to the website and do free space. you have to complete 5 out of 7 to get the 48gb then its only good for two year after the two years you still have the 50gb but can only upload and download up to 2gb . The 48gb will be there but can't do nothing with it . Its just free space .almost like dead weight . So as long as its not over 2gb you could download anything from that 48gb .. hope you understand .. for more info go to the website under q&a .. there's more answers .. have fun with the 50gb .

I don't have the phone, but is your 77gb from a Samsung device already? When I got my Note 10.1, I got 50gb free. Wondering if that's only 1 Samsung device that you get that. If its not, try signing out and then back in. Did you sign in when you setup the phone?

UPDATE: I had already completed the 5 steps long ago, and wasn't getting my free 50gb with my N2. However, I just enabled photo uploading, and the extra space just turned up!
started doing all the "get started" things and got a mail and now i got 50.75gb storage.
strange though that i had to start doing stuff for it to tell me that.

You have to do the 5 getting started steps and make sure you turn on photo uploading at least initially.

You guys could probably mail Dropbox support, they'll help you out I hope!
I too got it
About 30 minutes ago i received an email saying that I received 50GB of Dropbox for owning my "Samsung device". Since the only Samsung device I own is my AT&T galaxy note 2, its a pretty good indication that AT&T is not as greedy as I once thought it was. Want a nice little Sunday surprise. Anyone else get their free space?
EDIT: If you want your 50GB of free space, that you deserve, flash to a 4.1.2 ROM, I recommend CleanROM
I'm still at the same 222.25GB I have been for a while now.

Interesting, I just flashed CleanROM 3.0, so that explains how i got to 4.1.2. I wonder if everyone else will get the storage upgrade with the official OTA update. Only 2 years, its *only* $100 dollars worth of cloud services. I suppose that's not a lot to some people
I just got mine too! :good:

Got my 48 GB last night
I just flashed the Jedi-X3.3 ROM on my phone and got the dropbox guru email last night giving me 53 GB total. I was disappointed when I read on dropbox's website that AT&T customers would not qualify for the free space promotion, but flashing the ROM seemed to get around that.
Flashed miscom's N7105 rom on and upgraded!
is this somehow tied to your phone? can i unlink and link to another dropbox and get another 50 GB?
I was reading around a few places and I saw that Dropbox were offering 48GB extra with certain Samsung devices. I've looked at https://www.dropbox.com/help/297/en which tells all about it. I've had the phone for about 10 days, it came with the Dropbox app preinstalled which is required for the promo, as is carrier participation.
So my question is, is the Sprint S3 currently valid for this promo? Also I've read a few things that free space can be stacked. I've never had a Dropbox account before. What other ways are there of getting additional storage space?
Thanks
Well you should have the promo then. The only way to get additional 'free' dropbox space is that is people install dropbox on a PC [mobile doesn't count], from you link. You can get the link from the app / the website.
The 48gb is good for 2 years; when its up, you don't loose any files consumed within the 48gb, but you won't be able to add things more than you space minus the 48gb from the promo.
I signed up for dropbox and when I added the phone, it added 48g. It does say it wxpires at the end of 2013. Which would be 1 year. I also added 500m for a referral, 250m for taking the tour and doing a few things, and 3g for uploading 3g worth of pics and vids using the automatic camera upload.special going on now.... great program by the way! Anyone want my code so I get some more space? Lol
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app
1. Install it on your Device
2. Take the tour
3. Install it on your Computer
4. Referral someone
5. Upload something( I think)
6. Make something public.
7. If you have an aditional computer install on it too.
48gb for 2 years and like 2.5 for finish the others steps.

You guys were right.. 48g is for 2 years not 1 like I said up above. I must have read the date while all hopped up on coffee or something.
All the other bonuses are permanent except the 48g
I'm up to 54.13g lol

I'm up to 76 because i used to have an evo 4g lte and it has a 24 or 25 gb promo. So when i got this phone, it did indeed stack them. Not that i would recommend this, but i know someone that just kept saying up virtual pcs and using fake email addresses to fake refer people and it worked every time. You can do it for an additional 16gb. But that means you have to do it 32 times.

Well I got my tablet today and linked the pre-installed Dropbox app with my account, but no extra GBs were given. I did however use a Galaxy Note 10.1 at Best Buy on Sunday to login to my account and it gave me 48GB, and that was only for a year. So now I'm at 99.88 GB. :victory:
I'm at 200gb and change right now from registering on gs3, 2 note 2s and a gt 2 10.1. So yes you get additional space for each device that's eligible for the promo.
