I know that if you're on a 32GB version of this phone you may already be running out of HD space. Just wanted to spread the word that there is FREE android app (also Windows/MAC desktop version) called COPY that will give you 15GB of free cloud storage. If you use the referral code in my signature you can get an extra 5GB.
I have over 120GB worth of permanent free cloud storage by using the referral system!
One of the neat features that I use is that whenever I am on WiFi the COPY app will automatically start to upload any new photos or videos on my phone. It's super easy to download photos/videos you have saved on the cloud and is also easy to send a link to them to another person from within the app.
Just thought this info may be useful to those of you who are used to having an external SD card full of media and no longer have that option.
good for you. Referral posts are not permitted on xda and fyi you get 100gb of free storage with onedrive. Bye
Mod Edit
Small referrals are permitted in your signature.
There is no need for a thread as well

What is your favorite cloud storage solution? I have been testing a lot of them lately, trying to find a service with as many functionalities as possible, keeping it fast, free and being reliable. AFAIK they all offer an android app. Here are my personal experiences:
- dropbox: http://www.dropbox.com
We do get 25gb of storage with dropbox, but I personaly don't like the fact that I have to put everything in a dropbox folder on my pc to have them synchronized.
There is an add-on to circumvent the problem, but I am not sold:

- box.net: I somehow also got 50gb for free on box.net. The service is very good, albeight the web interface is a bit sluggish. Also the sync app is unfortunately limited to paying customer.
http://www.box.net
- sugarsync: my personal favorite, it has everything you may wish, unfortunately you only get 5gb for free. With respect to functionalities, it is the best. Also the web interface is very fast:
http://www.sugarsync.com
Alternatively my referral link if you want to help: sugarsync with my referral
- google drive: I haven't tested it myself. It also offer only 5gb free. Do you guys have any experience with this service?
https://drive.google.com/start#home
- cx.com This is quite a nice service, offering many functionalities and 10gb for free. I tried it myself and unfortunately it struggled very much with handling a high number of files.
http://www.cx.com
- other services you may suggest?
Seeing as you get 25 GB Dropbox I didn't try any other. I do not use cloud storage much enough to really be bothered finding a better one.
Since I haven't used any other I won't vote, but I use DB and don't really feel the need to complain! Will, however, follow this thread to see if any interesting info shows up. And thanks for the breakdown in the OP!
skydrive offered 25gb for free too i think,.. but Dropbox is my fav. 40gb is enough for me (25+x with invites an other promo things)
Tried out google drive and liked it, I only went back to dropbox because you cant save files onto your phone from the google drive app. (unless im doing it wrong)
Hey guys, I recently just decided to join the Dropbox/ Cloud storage initiative. I found the best possible Cloud storage service called SugarSync.
The best thing about it, is that unlike Dropbox, You can sync any folder on your pc, as well as having a Universal folder that syncs with every device like Dropbox.
The second best thing is that you get 5GB of storage instead of 2GB, and upto 32GB through referrals, unlike 16GB in Dropbox.
The last thing I love is that with SugarSync you can Sync entire folders with your phone unlike Dropbox, where you can only sync a file at a time.
Anyway instead of me talking about it have a try for yourself. Just click on this link SugarSync, to get 5.5GB storage instead of the 5GB that comes with it, or click the link in my Signature.
Hope you like it as much as I do.
Just letting my fellow Android owners know about a new cloud storage option, most similar to Dropbox but not unlike Box (minus the upload limit), Google Drive, SugarSync, etc.
As a limited time launch bonus, they're offering a 5GB bonus storage to who use a referral link.
It's as simple as click the link, sign up, confirm your email address, install the app to your phone.
Enjoy your 10GB FREE cloud storage.
Copy have responded to Google increasing users' storage across Google+, Google Drive etc and have decided to increase Copy users' storage to 15GB too. So forget 10GB, enjoy your 20GB
It also doesn't expire.

You are allowed a discrete sig link too.
Hello
I just had an idea and would like to share with anyone who had knowledge that could enhance this idea .
Exist today in Mercardo numerous companies that offer free space in the cloud for our files , however each of these companies has its own software to access files .
Do you think it would be possible that someone or some company was interested in creating a software that could connect and manage multiple accounts of cloud at the same time?
So we could open a free account for cloud service , then this program could join all the free spaces provided in one large space STORAGE .
What do you think of the idea ? it would make my life easy !
Dropbox - 2GB Free
Skydrive - 2GB Free
spideroak.com - 2GB Free
Asus WebStorage - 5GB free
Amazon Cloud Drive - 5GB free
Box - 10GB free
meocloud.pt - 16GB free
GoogleDrive - 15GB free
adrive.com - 50GB free
mega.co.nz - 50GB free
abelhas.pt - Unlimited *
Well , this is my idea hopefully someone can use and develop something to make life easier for everyone!
FTFY, SkyDrive offers 7 GB of free storage.
I've been working on this for about a week now.
I've gotten Box and Dropbox working so far. It also selects which service to upload the file to based on file size and space available. I'll keep you posted.
What would REALLY make (business) sense of such a project would be making a RESTful API developers could use.
For example, I could be writing a web application that works with user files. One option would be the user to choose and upload a file from their current client machine. An alternative would be browsing all of their cloud storage accounts and choosing a file source from there.
Keep it up, it could become something
Looks like it's been done.

Haha... The NSA is the least of our worries on the privacy front. Besides, I feel bad for the guy that has to sift through all of my internet history and files stored on my cloud accounts. He must be terribly bored.
Chinese services offer tons of capacity for free, for example 360 yunpan gives you 36 TERAbytes, and it's possible to increase this. The problem is that everything is written in Chinese
Also have on tencent site english language. I have 10TB free
Hi Guys,
I was forced to move to a different online storage service due to Sugarsync going paid-only. Copy by Barracuda is a great service, and the best thing about it, it lets you migrate all your data from any online storage service, directly, not wasting you downloads or uploads.
"Copy" has a great Android App
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.copy
To get the full 20GB, click on this link , which gives you the 15GB free plus 5GB bonus storage.

No difference between dropbox
I look at the intro, but think most of the function dropbox already have
