Better than Dropbox! - Verizon Droid Incredible 2

In case you don't already have it, Minus is like Dropbox but instead of 2GB of free space you get 10GB for free!
You can upgrade up to 50GB for free by sharing with friends (which is what I'm doing) for 1GB at a time for each person that joins through you.
If you would like to try it, please Sign up as it gets me more free space!
Android, iPhone, Windows, MacOS, and Linux supported
C'mon, give it a try...
No, but really I do think this is a pretty sweet app and I thought y'all might appreciate it.
EDIT:
I have gotten my maximum 50GB of free space, so here are some others' referral links you can sign up through to help them out
Just pick one!

I have the max 50GB for my Minus since I told them a huge bug in their referral system which they still haven't fixed. I also have 11.4GB on Dropbox

Done, tanx!

someone please pm me with the link to your referral link so I can replace mine. I have the max 50GB and want to share the love...
No point in me referring people if their bonus GB is going to waste! You can have'm! I'll post all the links sent to me in the OP for fairness.

Just sent you a pm

It keeps telling me that I can't upload files larger than 200Mb. Thoughts? If that's the case, I'll have to go back to DB.

According to their website:
"The size limit currently is 2 GB per file..."
Which is I admit a limitation of Minus, But even full feature movie files can be brought down to less than 2GB easily.
Not sure what the problem you're running into is. Have you tried their support?

Yea, I saw that, weird. I got the same error from my W7 pc and my Mac. Oh well...

Found that if an upload is interrupted and I don't delete the partial file before trying to reupload I get the same error. That is the only way I have been able to get that message.
But after deleting the incomplete file it works fine again.
Hope that helps!

I like minus and dropbox both. One thing about minus, is it sorts the files into upload date, and you have to rename each one to make it more readable. I wish it was like dropbox in the sense that when you open the app it shows you nothing but files.
Good find thought, I used your link for my account

600 MB additional free storage
Hi all
Just found a smart way to increase your Dropbox account with 600 MB:
1 Sign into your existing Dropbox account (or create a new account)
2 Goto https://www.dropbox.com/free
3 Follow instructions ... and voila 600 MB additional free storage

Damn drop box caught on

So theoso creator of alot of those drop box increase in space mods was contacted. Drop box told him to stop creating these mods for increased space. They also said any space given as a result of these mods will be taken away. I guess time to download all your stuff just in case they actually do. I cannot link at the moment but if you look in the main page its under apps and games. ****ty

That's what I meant by 100MB. I can't remember if it Box of Minus that only allows 100MB max per file which makes it impossible to upload these leaks and Touchwiz ROMs in general. I guess Miui and CM9 may BD possible if they are super slim

I personally use only Box now for all my phone stuff only: including all the Roms I've accumulated over time...There's an easy workaround for the 100MB thing: I just split my rom up after extracting with Root Explorer..For instance, with CM or AOSP roms, I just pull off the system apps, ans that usually gets me under 100MB right there. I just make a folder with each roms name for cloud storage, and make a quick little readme.txt file to remind me how to put it back together when I need it..(Larger, stockish Roms: same concept, just a little more separating. Where there's a will there's a way, I guess, and that free 50GB of storage was too hard to pass up: I still use dropbox too, but any .zip files are pretty much all going to my Box account.

Why not just make a split archive instead of extracting the contents and splitting it up?

Personally, because I do all this from my phone: I can use 7zip or winrar to do that, but I'm usually on my phone, not my pc, but yeah, if you're at your computer, halving the archive would be what's up.
Good. Dropbox is an amazingly generous company and it irritates when people steal from them.

I started with Dropbox but am now using Sugarsync- you get 5gigs and almost 6 if you do their orientation clicks.
I personally use both but like the way you can get more cloud space with Sugarsync.

Box.net (also .com now!) is 100mb/file now, but it used to be 1gb/file for free accounts. I have one if the latter but I find myself using dropbox more often at 28gb/100mb.
Maybe Tasker can split up archives and sync them on its own with the help of FolderSync...

I'd hardly say that glitch was stealing. Dropbox was offering the space for free, the glitch simply saved the user time, and the user & dropbox bandwidth. If anything, that was a benefit for dropbox (their bandwidth is not free), otherwise we all would have been recording videos with our phones staring out the window, upload to dropbox, and just as quickly deleted.

I got 50GB just for signing up early on..I thought most everyone took advantage of this because it was pretty heavily publicized when they first came up.

Dropbox?

Okay, so do we automatically get the free 50 gigs? Cause I just got an email form dropbox telling me to do these "5 steps" in order to get 48 gigs. Is that what they are talking about? or is this 5 step thing for an ADDITIONAL 48 gigs?
btw, this is my first time ever using dropbox.
Yes, but you can use it For only 24 months..
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
Hmm I never got such email.
Yes and Yes. you get the free space for 24 months. As for the steps, it is just DropBox trying to get you to learn about drop box, invite friends, etc. A good marketing ploy of things you need to do before they release the extra space.
Also, you get the email when you sign-up or sign-in to DropBox from your phone.
My Sprint GS3 had some kind of DropBox popup. I don't think I had to do anything with an email or follow any steps. I installed DropBox and BOOM I have about 50 gigs now all the sudden.
If you had a dropbox account already, chances are you stepped through the "5 steps" already when you first signed up, which means you should just get the extra space, and an email saying so.

You have to options, at the start up settings or by pass that
and just log in to you dropbox after. The device will let you know the rest
and yeah you should get an email.
Hi USER,
Thanks for supercharging your Samsung device with Dropbox! To claim your 48 GB of space, complete five steps from our Get Started guide.

I'd been using dropbox for a while now and had upgraded to one of the bigger offerings. I might downgrade now if I am getting the extra 48GB free for 2 years

I came across this great Dropbox alternative called Copy that got a really nice android app. Right now they are giving away 10 GB free just by signing up. And you'll get 5GB extra for everyone you refer to the service. It's pretty nice! And BTW, I'm not affiliated with the service. You'll never get enough free storage!

Copy: a new cloud storage solution

I'm sure a lot of you have heard of this by now, but it is relatively new and seems promising.
You can sign up here https://www.copy.com/signup/?
Or you can use my referral link to get 10GB free storage https://copy.com?r=M9FKRs
Edit - now offering 15GB free plus 5GB from my referral, so that's 20GB total!
I've heard you can also get an extra 2GB by linking your Twitter account but I haven't gotten it to work
They have desktop clients for Windows, Mac and Linux.
Their Android app is very good, it has a nice holo ui and can automatically backup your photos to your account https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.copy
This seems like a great alternative to Dropbox and perfect for our limited storage Nexus 4s
Does seem pretty promising. Clean UI too, I'm liking it a lot so far. Signed up through your referral link. Thanks!

This is a product offered by Barracuda Networks (check "about us" then "DMCA"). They provide anti SPAM services on firewalls so it's interesting to see them jumping into cloud storage. I wonder what angle they are going at with this, other than a new source of revenue. What are people's impressions so far? Clearly it is meant to look/feel like dropbox. Any reason to use this over db?
Does the photocopy feature work ok for everyone? Most times it just hangs on uploading for me and never actually uploads anything. I've emailed support with a logcat and they're going to take a look at it
Copy that!

I hadn't ever heard of Mega, but you said they are back, so I was just curious what happened to them before?
Also, the app you linked is in beta and hasn't been updated in a while. There are two others that have been updated within the last week, so there are options for anyone interested.
