I bought my note 8 from best buy and there was a little sign there that said free 50gb on dropbox when you sign into your account and free music hub for a month etc etc. Well music hub isnt giving me anything free and my dropbox still says the same 3.25gb it said before even after i signed into dropbox right from the note 8.
anyone know what I should do to get my perks??

The Drop Box you might have to upload some files or whatnot before getting the full 50GB, this happened to me on my Note 2
It took 2 days before the extra 50 Gb showed up in my Dropbox. You get an email too. You have to submit a request to get the $25 from Google Play. Address is in the paperwork in the box.

Did you register the tablet with Samsung? Once you do (and also confirm via an email sent to your Gmail), you will get the $25 Play Store credit.
The registration proces is completely inobvious, at least it was for me. I don't think there was any papers included with my tablet that told me about this at all (and I'm typically very particular about going over everything in the box). The only way I found out even, was good old XDA. The link is here:

Not sure if the Dropbox bonus is related to the Samsung registration. But its possible the registration may trigger the extra storage, as well. As the previous post, mine took 2 days before I got the storage increase, and I received an email from Dropbox that I got a bonus 48 GB. Again, not sure if it was registering, or simply signing into Dropbox on the tablet that triggered it.
you have to go to
dropbox.com/gs
and follow the steps for the extra 48gb.
Does anyone know if you get an additional 50gb if you already have 50 from a other Sammy device?

I don't think you do. I have a Note 2 which I got 50gb, but when I go to dropbox.com/gs it says I've already earned my extra space even though I think we should get another 50gb with the Note 8. I didn't get it.
I didn't think so either. I'm still using my 50gb from my s3, since then two new devices which gave me 50gb of Dropbox storage. Nothing additional.

I already had a free 50gb with my Note2. I used another email address and got a separate 50gb with the Note8.

I signed into my existing dropbox account and all it shows is 2GB. How do I get the 50gb that was promised? I just moved from the iPhone to the Note II. So far so good Been only a few hours since I got it.
Thanks
Check your email links. Use them and you will get the remaining 48gb
Ps. Thumbs up for the change from iPhone.

If you have a gmail account, it already does that, sorta. Photos will back up to G+/Picasa, apps are "backed up" with your play account, though their settings aren't. SMS won't get backed up. I usually just install titanium backup and have it do a full backup every friday night. That gets everything.
How do I go to the top of a webpage when I'm at the bottom of the page with a single touch/click?

Hi,
When you scroll down in Dolphin HD browser, you normally get an arrow pointing up on the bottom right of the screen. Touch it to go up to top.
Cheers!!
I cant do that in the default browser or chrome? Imagine scrolling all the way to the top from a multipage document!

Try going to dropbox.com/gs in your device after installing Dropbox app and logging in. I am still waiting to receive my Note 2 and hence can't confirm this works.
does anyone know if the offer is stackable? got 50GB's from when i bought my S3, So i'm wondering if i'll get another 50 from the Note II
I'm in the same situation. They are not stackable.
Sent from my GT-N7100 using Tapatalk 2
+1 I received it once for my Note 10.1 but nothing for Note II!!! Disappointing! I did pay money for both of them!
If you have already claimed the offer from a previous Samsung device and wonder why you don't or have double the space here is your answer.
If you log on to your desktop version and go to your settings then bonus space , you will see that you already claimed the Samsung promotion, the promotion isn't model specified, its pretty much the original "Samsung Promotion" you received covers all the Samsung devices you activate. Each user is only eligible for one Samsung Promotion of this type for a single account.
https://www.dropbox.com/help/338
If you did get the bonus promo on your previous device and your new device don't get comfy cause you wont keep it for long. Dropbox is good good/fast at claiming double offers back.

So if I availed of the bonus space on my s3 and log in on my note 2 years later then it will give me another 50gb for 2 years again?
Sent from my GT-N7100 using Tapatalk 2
No you won't. Blah I edited that part out. Everything is explained in the dropbox website link I attached regarding the Samsung Promo. After the promo expires unless they run a new promo of some sort you automatically will be downgraded according to their promo terms. I will be claiming my Note II bonus space on a different email account and will just use shared folders between my two dropbox accounts.

Is Dropbox offering 50gb free with this device or no?
Sent from my SGH-T889 using Tapatalk 2
Yes, I think I got 48 gb after signing into it
Sent from my SGH-T889 using Tapatalk 2
Same, took a few min after signing in, but it eventually kicks off an email letting you know about the added size.
I didn't get it because I got the same deal when I bought the S3. I bought a nexus 7 and was suppose to get it then, too, but didn't. I emailed Dropbox and they said my account is already associated with getting the 50gb once already, so no more for me.
Yes I got free 48gb on dropbox too. But I have no idea if it will stack if that's what you're asking.

Its good for 2 years
As the AT&T doesn't come with Dropbox (I assume as AT&T want to promote their own locker service), is there a way to get the free 50Gb upgrade that other Note II owners get?
I signed into Dropbox this morning from my Note 2 & it surprisingly showed that I have 50gb this morning.
Borrow a buddies Galaxy Tab 2.

I flashed this rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1984546
Then installed Dropbox from the playstore signed in, then uninstalled Dropbox and got the message that dropbox would be replaced by factory version. I then got an e-mail from Dropbox saying I got an extra 48gb storage.
Make sure you have the dropbox file...Like the one in the picture.
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

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.

Not sure, but I have a Galaxy Tab 2 coming from Best Buy on Tuesday so I hope so.
I'm going to try going to some corporate phone stores tomorrow and logging in to dropbox with their Samsung display phones to see if it works. Hopefully I'll remember to log out!!
Thanks for the directions everyone, I'm at 51GB now

I have had three gs3 from best buy because first two were lemons. And now my email, my wife's, and my yahoo now have 50+50+50. Lol, and she has a 4s by the way so it's nice since she can't memory expand.

I recently purchased my used GS3 and when I logged into my Dropbox, it gave me the 48GB also.
Update!
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.

Did Dropbox come pre-loaded right out of the box?
I am guessing it did. I believe, but don't remember exactly - once you sign in to Dropbox with your new device they will send you an email. You have to follow the link in the email to get the free temporary upgrade.
yeah because during the samsung setup when i turned it on, it told me i got the 50 gigs for 2 years and asked me to sign in. i did, and nothing happened.

If you have already claimed free space from a previous samsung promotion you can't have another on the same account. You need to set up a new account.

I only had 2Gb when I loaded the app and created an account, but I went through the 5 step process via the website to get the 48Gb upgrade just now, so seems like it should be possible to upgrade.
