I've had a Box account for 1 month now. And their free box is 5GB. From Nov 30, 2010 to December 31, 2012 though, a deal between LG and Box will upgrade your storage to 50GB for free!
I already tried it. (I faked my SIM as T-mobile just to be sure though, as the promo did say that it's supposed to be for US folks only. )
Have fun boys and girls!

US only it seems.
Thanks for this hint.
I've created my account a few minutes ago directly from the app and now have lots of free space .
Therefore it definitely works outside the US... I'm from germany.

Thanks, I just dwnld. the app, registered and I got a message that my account was upgraded to 50GB. Great!
Yes, works good, you can create your account on a computer and the 50GB upgrade will be automatic at first connection from the phone app.
I am from spain and tambien works here. Thanks mate.
From Singapore. 50gb works here.
Set it up last night, is fine in the UK.
It works fine in Germany.
Sweet. So me faking a sim was just me being paranoid then.
Glad to see reports that its working all over the world. Thanks guys.

too bad the windows application requires the business upgrade
Could you please clarify, does it work with 50gb till the end of March and then drop to standard capacity, or is it permanent and you just have to create the account till March?
[EDIT] Nvm, found the answer - it's for life if anyone else wondered : )
Yep , for life.
As for folder sync, people recommend using webdav. Ill try it this weekend.

Hi all,
I received a marketing email last night with a deal that was so good I had to share!
A company called "BOX" has released their app onto android:
http://www.box.com/
it is like dropbox, but if you download the android app and sign up through there you get 50Gb of free storage!!!
http://venturebeat.com/2012/02/23/box-android-50gb-free/
I just DL the app, and stuck my email addy in, and 5 seconds later "Welcome to BOX, Free 50Gb account upgrade"
I logged out and signed up as my wife, same thing happened....no confirmation emails were sent just instant access!!!
Are there any file size limitations for what you can upload or download? I know some of the cloud storage sites have some such as 250mb etc.

Hi Guys,
I am planning to buy the Nexus 7. My friend will buy it from US, activate it so that I will get the free credit and sent it over to me in India.
I understand I wont be able to use Movies, Books etc.
But will I be able to use the free credit to buy apps in India?????
Depends on the copyright the application creators allow. In most cases, yes.
Ok I will clarify a little more. I am not asking about any region limited apps. Will I be able to use the credit to buy apps in Indian play store? Or is the free credit valid within US only?
Thanks

I was in Canada when I bought my Nexus 7, and travelled to the US. While there, I did buy some apps, though I was not allowed to use their Magazines and Music store. It knew I was Canadian, but gave me access to apps on the American store (like NBC Olympics). You'd probably have similar luck.
And it's a great tablet anyway, even without the Play Store credit. Don't be disappointed if it doesn't work.
Though I wonder if MarketEnabler would get it to work if it doesn't. I'm just confident that you'll be fine.

I don't think using the credit is a problem rather getting a credit is a problem as Google would require a US credit carded added in your wallet account before you activate your free credit.

I got that one covered. My friend would buy it activate using my Id and his card and then sent it over to me.
Another doubt. Can I still use the credit even after the card which was used to activate the device is removed from my wallet account?
Sent from my Optimus 2X using xda app-developers app
yes i've done exactly that, i used my brothers credit card details to get the free credit and then deleted his card from my payment options.. still have the 25 dollars play store credit.. its there like its own gift voucher card

Yes, no problem with that.
A different method to get the credit!
Well I tried another method of getting Play store credit. Using this method I was able to achieve it all. And I find that this connects with VPN with more speed rather than configuring using on device VPN connection.
I did following to get the $25 credit plus Google Movies, Music, Wallet, Books and Magzines too
1. Download Spotflux and install it. (a Free and best VPN solution)
2. Download Connectify and install it.
3. Share Spotflux connection using Connectify
4. Rest your Nexus 7 tablet
5. Connect using the newly created WiFi hotspot
6. Just proceed with the steps. After completion you will receive $25 credit :laugh:
All these steps in detail and with screenshots are also available on my blog post http://www.abtevrythng.com/2012/09/how-to-get-25-credit-in-play-store-with.html
I thought the HTC one came with 25GB free dropbox free space, right? How do I get mine, I logged into the website like I did before with my one x but I don't see any promotion.

I just logged into my Dropbox on the phone after first boot and instantly received an email that the 25GB had been added to my account. Don't think you have to do anything special to receive it. 64GB Dev Edition here.
ATT user, flashed Renovate ROM. My first dropbox login on renovate granted me 23gb free space extra.
The 25GB space only last for 2 years
I was going to sign up for it but then what if I actually need the 25Gb of space? I don't wanna pay for that :3
I had 25Gb of Dropbox storage added to my account about 12 months ago when i bought my HTC One XL.
Just upgraded to my HTC One (M7) and tried to get an additional 25Gb, but it doesn't seem to be going though. I did the same steps that i did 12 months ago, but no luck.
Maybe it's only one lot of 25Gb per account
Hi
Greetings,
As per I know we only get 25 gb per account bad to know this as we must Atleast get more gb free when we buy a new phone

I wondered how to get mine as well - then I upload a photo from the phone to dropbox and my 25Gb was activated
Hope this works for you as well
Hmmm... I got the Dev Edition a couple of weeks back and have despite having signed in to Dropbox from my phone right away and used it to upload and download files, I don't see the 25GB. Does this 25GB apply to the Dev Edition phones as well?
Been in contact with HTC, and they actually told me that the free 25GB is only applied to new users, and only applied once.
So if you claimed the free allowance on your One X (just using as an example) You won't be able to get it again when upgrading to the HTC One.
Hope that makes sense?!

I received my Development Edition four days ago. After logging into Dropbox on phone, I received email to activate additional storage about an hour later - - so it would appear that the Dev Edition is eligible.
I was using a galaxy note 2 and i got 50 gigs of Dropbox space and when I got the htc one I got this phone when it came out for att on April 19th and after about a week I got a email from Dropbox saying I got another 23 gigs of space so in my Dropbox I have 73 gigs of space

I think if you sign into dropbox with your existing login, for example from a previous HTC phone then you'll have access to files from previous dropbox account, but won't get an extra 25GB.
If you want a fresh dropbox account then you would get a new allocation of 25GB, but wouldn't merge the two accounts into one 50GB account.
Hope this helps to explain how it works

I had the 50 gb free from my galaxy s3, and I could not use the 50gb from the note 4 on the same account, if you read the faq it says each account is only eligible for 1 storage upgrade (or words to that affect)
Simple (only? ) work around, new account.

Ah, I apologize. This is my first Samsung device, I got the last space upgrade from HTC. I didn't know there was only one time you could do the with a Samsung phone.
